Lüttringhausen town hall

Lüttringhausen is a district of Remscheid with 17,108 inhabitants. Until 1929 it was an independent city. Lüttringhausen became known nationwide through the former professional football club BV 08 Lüttringhausen , which played in the 2nd Bundesliga from 1982 to 1984 and has now been absorbed by FC Remscheid .

In the southwest of Lüttringhausen lies the large area of ​​the psychiatric clinic Evangelische Stiftung Tannenhof, which is mainly responsible for the Bergisches Land . The Christian Hospice Bergisch Land for Remscheid, Radevormwald, Hückeswagen and Wermelskirchen is being planned on the grounds of the foundation's former estate .

The Remscheid correctional facility located on the edge in the direction of Klausen is also known .

structure

Lüttringhausen is divided into the districts and courts of Dörrenberg, Garschagen , Goldenberg , Großhülsberg , Grünenplatz , Grund , Klausen , Kranenholl , Leyermühle , Lüttringhausen Mitte, Lüttringhausen West , Schmittenbusch, Stollen and Stursberg .

history

The ending -inghausen indicates a settlement in the 9./10. Century by the Borchter close that on the middle Ruhr lived up to Charles Saxon Wars under Saxon stood rule.

In 1189 the parish of Lüttringhausen was first mentioned in documents as being owned by the County of Berg . The main town of Lüttringhausen was given to the Bergisch noble family von Bottlenberg in 1240 and made freedom . The fiefdom existed until 1824.

In 1211 the Order of the Cross was founded in the Netherlands , who built a monastery in Beyenburg in 1289 and have lived there ever since. In 2012, two of the last eight Kreuzbrothers in North Rhine-Westphalia were still living in Beyenburg. Saint Odilia became their main patroness in 1287 when a brother on the cross discovered the remains of the saint in Cologne. In 1964 some of the relics were brought to Beyenburg in a solemn procession, where they are venerated in the monastery church of St. Maria Magdalena .

In the surrounding courtyards of the parish, however, the Bergisch counts exercised the manorial rule . Until 1407 the parish of Lüttringhausen was part of the Bergisch office Bornefeld , but on October 8th of that year it was pledged to the Bergisch henchman Eberhard von Limburg , the bailiff of the Bergisch office Beyenburg . Originally the parish of Lüttringhausen consisted of the honors Hohenhagen, Erbschloe, Garschagen and Walbrecken. Eberhard added the parish to his office in Beyenburg, where it remained until the end of the Duchy of Berg in 1806. During this long period, the courts of the Erbschloe family were located in the parish of Lüttringhausen, which today belong to the independent city of Wuppertal (districts of Ronsdorf and Heckinghausen ).

The old trade route of the Hanseatic League from Bruges to Lübeck led as the main axis for transport through Lüttringhausen, then on to Lennep (which was also a member of the Hanseatic League) and further into the Sauerland. Around the time of the turn of the 14th to the 15th century, Hof Olpe sent the "Alf ut der Olpe" to the Hanseatic League. In 1406 he became a councilor in the Hanseatic city of Riga .

Lüttringhauser coat of arms

In 1850, companies in Lüttringhausen were also affected by a textile workers' strike . Upon application, Lüttringhausen was granted the Prussian town charter on August 18, 1856.

coat of arms

Lüttringhausen received a coat of arms upon application in 1893. Its description reads: In silver (white) divided by a black alternating pinnacle bar (goes back to the servants of those von Bottlenberg ), above a soaring blue-armored red lion ( Bergischer Löwe ) and below a red cross, which stands for the cruisers from Beyenburg. The upper coat of arms consists of a silver (white) wall crown with three towers and a red gate.

Personalities

A famous son of the city is the reformer and martyr Adolf Clarenbach , who was born around 1497 on the Buscherhof near Lüttringhausen and died a fire in 1529 in Cologne-Melathen because of his convictions. A memorial on Lüttringhauser Strasse commemorates him, and his birthplace in the Buscherhof estate has also been preserved 800 meters west of the memorial.

Daniel Schürmann (1752–1838) comes from Heidt (at that time Lüttringhausen, today part of Wuppertal - Ronsdorf ). He was a respected educator who also wrote several textbooks, such as a practical textbook on arithmetic and geometry , an edition on algebra, and a draft for examining teachers . Even today, the phrase "according to Schürmann's arithmetic book" is a common name in the city when it comes to the correctness of an arithmetic problem.

The teacher Friedrich Wilhelm Dörpfeld also worked in the Heidt elementary school, which was then part of Lüttringhausen, and died in Ronsdorf .

The natural scientist Kaspar Georg Karl Reinwardt was also born in Lüttringhausen on June 5, 1773 , who laid out the 87 hectare Kebun Raya botanical garden in Bogor near Djakarta .

Ewald Platte , born October 9, 1894 in the Honschaft Garschagen in what is now Untergarschagen in Lüttringhausen, † December 27, 1985 in Opladen, was a German expressionist painter.

August Erbschloe was a member of the city council and an alderman, Richard Gertenbach shaped the infrastructure and image of the city as mayor for over 35 years.

Ludwig Poullain (1919–2015) was a banker and chairman of the board of the Westdeutsche Landesbank (1968–1977) and president of the German Savings Bank Association (1968–1974).

The square in front of the Evangelical Church and a patient house of the Evangelical Foundation Tannenhof were named after the Protestant pastor and member of the Confessing Church , Ludwig Steil , who was born in Lüttringhausen on October 19, 1900 and died in the Dachau concentration camp on January 17, 1945 .

Ernst Oberhoff (1906–1980) was a Bergisch painter, sculptor and graphic artist who designed the doors of the Lüttringhauser town church.

Christine Urspruch (* 1970) grew up in Lüttringhausen and attended the Röntgen Gymnasium in Remscheid- Lennep . Since 2002 she has played the role of forensic doctor Silke Haller in Tatort Münster .

Infrastructure

traffic

Lüttringhausen stop

The Remscheid-Lüttringhausen stop is on the Wuppertal-Oberbarmen – Solingen line and is served by the S 7 Der Müngstener of the Rhein-Ruhr S-Bahn from Wuppertal Hauptbahnhof to Solingen Hauptbahnhof . Lüttringhausen was first connected to the national rail network in 1868. At that time, the Wuppertal-Oberbarmen-Lennep railway line was built via Ronsdorf and Lüttringhausen, and an attractive station building was built on von-Bottlenberg-Straße.

Deutsche Bahn (formerly Reichsbahn ) was the operator until December 2013 , before responsibility was transferred to Abellio Rail NRW after 145 years . Up until the 1960s, there were numerous plant connections, especially in Ronsdorf and Lüttringhausen, because many local companies used them to handle their goods operations. In addition, there was the goods handling building on Grünenplatzstrasse, which housed the acceptance and delivery point for freight and express goods .

The A1 motorway touches Lüttringhausen in the east; the exit "Wuppertal-Ronsdorf / Lüttringhausen Nord" is about 2 km from the town center on the city limits of Wuppertal. On November 8, 2006, near “Blume” on the border with the Lennep district, the “Remscheid-Lennep / Lüttringhausen Süd” junction was opened. State road 58 (formerly federal road 51 ) leads directly through Lüttringhausen, as do state roads 417 and 81.

education

The Leibniz Gymnasium (Lockfinker Strasse 23), the Adolf Clarenbach Primary School (Pestalozzistraße 17), the Eisernstein Community Primary School (Lockfinker Str. 23), the Catholic Primary School (KGS) in Richard-Pick-Strasse, the Goldenberg Community Primary School (Remscheider Straße 239) and the nature school Grund (Grunder Schulweg) are located in Lüttringhausen.

In 2013 the Eisernstein primary school burned down at its old location. At the same time, the main school in Klausen was closed at the end of the school year due to declining student numbers. Then the Eisernstein School moved to Lockfinker Straße as an emergency solution, before the city ​​council decided that the Leibniz Gymnasium and the elementary school should form the Klausen school center in the future. This made some spatial additions necessary.

In the Hofschaft Halbach , on the site of the former primary school, the private sponsoring association “Integrative Montessori-Kinderhaus für Hochbegabte e. V. “operated a specialized day care center .
