Neuenhof (Wachtberg)

Neuenhof on a Tranchot card from 1808 (at the top right of the picture)

The Neuenhof is a submerged farmstead in the area of the municipality of Wachtberg in the Rhein-Sieg district in North Rhine-Westphalia . It was located on the Arzdorfer Bach, the upper reaches of the Godesberger Bach , in a number of other courtyards and weir systems between Villip and Fritzdorf .

In 1695 the Neuenhof was sold by the von Portz family to Otto Heinrich Waldbott von Bassenheim zu Gudenau. The von Bassenheims administrated from the castle Gudenau from the judicial district Villip (comprised Holzem , Pech , Villip) and the Drachenfelser Ländchen , a subordinate rule of the Electoral Cologne office Godesberg-Mehlem .

The Neuenhof is shown in the topographical survey of the Rhineland (also Tranchot map) from 1808 on sheet 111 Ahrweiler as a courtyard. It is mentioned in the statistics of the administrative district of Cologne from 1865 as the “place” of the mayor's office in Villip alongside Gudenau, Pech, Rott and Villip. This place name refers to a farm.
