history

The Welver Monastery existed in Kirchwelver from 1240 to 1809 . Since the 19th century, Kirchwelver formed a community in the office of Schwefe in the Soest district in the Westphalian administrative district of Arnsberg . Since the construction of the Welver train station between Kirchwelver and Meyerich in the middle of the 19th century led to the creation of a new settlement area with central facilities for both villages, the two communities were merged on April 1, 1957 to form the new community of Welver .
