Nennsberg is a district of the municipality Eitorf in the Rhein-Sieg district .

geography

Nennsberg lies below the hill of the Höhenstein . One plot is probably called Himmelsberg because of the steep ascent . If visibility is good, a distant view of the Bergisches Land , Windeck and the Hohe Schaden is possible.

history

Nennsberg was named for the first time in a clearing map between 800 and 1300 AD. Possibly the name comes from Nonnesberg , as a plot here bears the name Frauenbusch , which suggests a monastery, hermit women or the property of a nunnery.

In 1830 Nennsberg had six residents.

In 1845 the farm had 7 Catholic residents.

In 1888 the village had 17 residents in three houses.

In 1901 there were the households Ackerin Widow Peter Barrig, peddler Katharina Feld and Ackerer Peter Feld.

Second World War

Three Nennsberg men of the Schwarzemüller family died in Russia in 1945 and 1946, and a fourth was seriously wounded. In the late afternoon of March 26, 1945, Nennsberg was liberated from Nazi rule by American soldiers. On March 27, 1945, the Americans set up an armored chain above Nennsberg on the edge of the forest to the Höhenstein. The feared skirmishes between the Wehrmacht and the Americans did not materialize except for a few shells from the retreating soldiers.

The hamlet rated Berg had at no time more than twenty-five residents (which during the Second World War ).

Mining

North-west of Nennsberg is the Silberseifen mine , where ore was extracted. Another but locked entrance was in the direction of the district of Forst on the right-hand side. On the slope of the parcel “Am alten Wingert”, this entrance was used by the population during the air raids of the Second World War.

Livestock and agriculture

In Nennsberg, livestock and agriculture have been practiced since the clearing. The fertile soil prompted the residents of the neighboring towns to create small plots of fruit and vegetable gardens. The Ennenbach family in particular operated agriculture until the 1990s. Forestry was only operated for personal use.

Fountain

There are two enclosed fountains. Each residential building has its own well for watering the green spaces.

Buildings

Both the former bakery above the single street lamp and the agriculturally used barn at the entrance to the village to the left of the Schwarzemüler / Steeckelbach family were demolished at the end of the 1980s.

In the middle of the village there is a cross on the right hand side that was set up for the deceased sons of the Schwarzemüller family.

The half-timbered house is therefore the oldest building in Nennsberg, whereby its corner pillars show through the mortise that it must already have had another location.

The bakery on the neighboring farm is one of the oldest buildings on site.

High voltage

Since the 1970s, three overhead lines of the Rheinisch Westfälische Elektrizitätswerke (RWE) and DB-Energie (formerly Deutsche Bundesbahn ) have been operated over the place.
