Langschede is a district of Fröndenberg / Ruhr in North Rhine-Westphalia with about 1000 inhabitants. It originated at a ford across the Ruhr .

history

A village from the Iron Age has been excavated on Unnaer Straße since 2015 . Traces of house posts, rubbish pits and urn graves with corpse burns from the period between 800 BC were found on the 10 hectare area intended for an industrial park. Chr. And the turning point.

House Schoppe was built in 1709 at the latest, the associated defense tower in the 16th century. It was initially owned by the Marck family, who had been sitting on a mansus belonging to the Altendorf house in Langinscede since the 13th century . In 1825 Haus Schoppe was acquired by the Schoppe family.

At the Langschede court in 1483, an interrogation of witnesses took place in a court that was probably in the hands of the Counts of the Mark as early as the 12th century . In Langschede, the Duke of Kleve-Mark owned a tower that served to secure the Ruhr crossing. Johann Krane was enfeoffed with this tower until 1513.

On February 20, 1709, Langschede burned down completely in a major fire and had to be rebuilt.

The village was only more closely linked to the economic development of the Ruhr when it was made navigable. Although this had already been proposed by the government officials in 1649, the complex project was delayed for a long time. The river has now been made navigable between Ruhrort and Langschede at the urging of the Prussian King Friedrich II and against the resistance of the local landlords. It was not until the extension to Langschede in 1780 that a port established itself here, which was the highest port on the Ruhr until 1801. Mainly salt from Unna-Königsborn and grain from the surrounding area were loaded and shipped downstream. Up to 16 locks were located between Langschede and the Ruhr ports. The salt works in Unna, which shipped most of its salt to Langschede, devoured 3,000 wagons of coal every year and employed 73 people. “Upstream the ships on this route need three days to travel in good weather and wind, and are pulled by two horses; downstream, however, they only need two days ”noted the Statistical Representation of the Prussian Monarchy in 1817 . Their maintenance proved to be so costly, however, because the river was too shallow that shipping had to be abandoned again in 1801. The end of the Ruhr shipping began with the construction of the RuhrtalBahn between 1872 and 1876. Nevertheless, Langschede was still considered a “large and important grain market” in 1834 by the Handbook of Geography and Statistics for the educated stands .

The Iserlohn entrepreneur Piepenstock now set up his own stock corporation, which advertised the construction of a connecting road from Iserlohn via Kalthof to Langschede. Even President von Vincke had subscribed for some shares.

As in large parts of the Ruhr area, Langeschede also created a gallery called “Froheansicht”.

Friedrich Grillo had a waterworks built in Steele in 1872, one near Witten for the Erin colliery in 1885 and a third from 1886 to 1888 near Langschede. In 1927 this pumping station had a capacity of 25,000,000 m³, in 1919 it was only 14,000,000, in 1922 the amount is given as 14,967,826. When British bombers destroyed the Ruhr dams , the water extraction system in Langschede silted up, so that Unna had to be supplied with drinking water by other means.

Until 1967, Langschede was an independent municipality in the Fröndenberg district with the districts of Ardey and Dellwig, which were only added on August 1, 1964 . The only thing that remains is the local telephone network (02378); because already on January 1st, 1968 the community was incorporated into the city of Fröndenberg.
