Location and description

Neuenhammer is located north of Ohl on the Wipper just before the Kerspe estuary on the federal highway 237 . With Ohl it now forms a closed settlement area.

history

The eponymous Neuenhammer (also called hammer) was a raw steel hammer operated on the Kerspe brook and was owned by the Scharde family in the Bergisches Amt Steinbach . It was one of the so-called Ohler hammers , the first of which was licensed in 1752 and built around 1757 on the Wipper.

The Neuenhammer was the third - " new" - hammer mill at the site. It was licensed on July 20, 1774 by the merchant Johann Hermann Cramer and appeared in 1804 in the comprehensive Eversmann list of metal manufacturing facilities between Lahn and Lippe as the property of the widow Hermann Cramer. In contrast to the other Ohler hammers, the Neuenhammer was a little off the Wipper on the Kerspe. The upper trench of the hammer mill to the left of the brook that supplied water was 1,300 meters long.

A first residential building was erected at the hammer mill, around which today's settlement developed. Under the French administration between 1806 and 1813, the Steinbach office was dissolved and Neuenhammer was politically assigned to Mairie Klüppelberg in the canton of Wipperfürth . In 1816 the Prussians converted the Mairie to the mayor's office in Klüppelberg in the Wipperfürth district .

In 1820 the provincial government published a table of the factories and factories in the province of Jülich-Kleve-Berg . For the Neuenhammer it is stated that three workers had produced 400 quintals of refined steel worth 4,500 Reichstalers . In 1836 the owner was given as Carl Theodor Cramer; after his death, the hammer was converted into a bone mill by his heir Carl Friedrich Cramer in 1851 .

The place is recorded on the topographical survey of the Rhineland from 1824 as a mill. From the Prussian new admission in 1892, it is regularly listed as Neuenhammer on measuring table sheets .

In the course of the Cologne Act , the municipality of Klüppelberg was dissolved in 1975 and major parts, including Neuenhammer, became part of the expanded city of Wipperfürth.
