Manheim is a district of Kerpen in the Rhein-Erft district in North Rhine-Westphalia .

The resettlement site Manheim-neu west of Kerpen is currently being built as a replacement .

location

Manheim is located in the Jülich-Zülpicher Börde between the Steinheide and the Bürgewald . Neighboring towns are Buir and Blatzheim to the south and Morschenich to the west . The Tanneck settlement (municipality of Elsdorf) was in the north of the village and has since been excavated. House Forst, which is not being excavated, as well as House Bochheim and the Waldhöfe belong to Manheim. Until the relocation of the federal highway 4 , it ran between Haus Bochheim and Manheim, since the relocation it has run south of the locality.

history

Manheim was first mentioned in a document in 898. This is a deed of donation with which King Zwentibold transfers property to the Essen monastery in Manheim (then Mannunhem), among other places.

1027 went manorial to the Archdiocese of Cologne over.

From 1954 the municipalities of Buir and Manheim formed a common administrative district .

Manheim was an independent municipality until 1974 , before the place was assigned to the new city of Kerpen by the Cologne Act with effect from January 1, 1975.

Participation in the Bürgewald

Manheim was one of the places involved in the Bürgewald that owned the rights to the forest. According to legend, St. Arnold von Arnoldsweiler gave the surrounding communities the forest, which was previously under the imperial ban on wild animals . As a thank you, the congregations had to deliver the wax interest to the parish church of Arnoldsweiler every year on Whit Tuesday . A document dated March 18, 1360, signed by Duke Wilhelm I of Jülich , confirmed the wax interest. Manheim is not explicitly mentioned here, but all surrounding villages. The certificate says that dat kerspel von Blaitzheim had to deliver a candle of 12 pounds of wax with his accessories . At that time Manheim belonged to the parish Blatzheim, so Manheim is also meant by accessories . This is also supported by the fact that Manheim also received part of the forest with the Manheimer Bürge in 1775, when the previously jointly used Bürgewald was divided up among the communities .

Manheim has been gradually being relocated since 2012 . For this purpose, in 2007 the application for the preparation of the Hambach lignite plan , material sub-section resettlement of Manheim was drawn up and submitted to the mining authority. The approval was granted on June 8, 2011 by the state government of North Rhine-Westphalia. From around 2022, the area will then be used for mining.

For the resettlement, the Manheim residents had three possible locations for (New) Manheim to choose from; Kerpen-West , Kerpen-Dickbusch and the southwest part of Buirs . In a vote on December 16, 2007, they voted for Kerpen-Dickbusch, northwest of Langenich , with a turnout of 71.75% and only one invalid vote with 81.05% . The development plan provides for mostly detached single-family houses .

In a further survey from February 11 to March 16, 2008, the citizens of Manheim were able to indicate how great the need for land is. From this, the size of Manheim at the new location in Kerpen-Dickbusch was determined. On March 18, 2010, an information event on the property survey took place.

Between 2016 and 2018, up to 400 refugees temporarily lived in Manheim.
