history
middle Ages
From the 11th to the 13th century there were a few farmsteads and a small moated castle in the area. The ore mining already contributed to a positive economic development and thus to an increase in the population. The iron ore was initially processed into small iron goods in around 20 kilns . The Gut Berentrop racing furnace was discovered in a well-preserved condition during excavations.
In 1220, the settlement called Rode , located within today's urban area, was first mentioned in a document. In the same year, the Premonstratensian pen in Berentrop near Neuenrade was mentioned in a document.
In the 13th and 14th centuries, the Counts of the Mark consolidated their rule in the county against the sovereigns of the area by building castles and towns. This also included Neuenrade, which was built near the border with the county of Arnsberg . In 1353, Gerhard von Plettenberg began to build a castle and an adjacent small fortified town (oppidum). As a planned location, Neuenrade had a chessboard-like floor plan. The first settlers came from the former village of Rode and were forced to settle in Nyenrade .
On July 7, 1355 the place received city rights. Associated with this were municipal jurisdiction, self-government and market law . The city council consisted of eleven councilors and the mayor. The Drosten von Neuenrade, who exercised the high level of jurisdiction , lived in the castle, as evidenced by the old judicial linden tree in the park on the Wall. In 1521 the castle burned down and then fell into disrepair.
Modern times
Neuenrade was a member of the Hanseatic League as an addition to Lüdenscheid . The most important export goods were the local hardware. In the early modern period, cloth production was added, which at times exceeded the importance of iron production. In addition to the Rennöfen were from the 16th century Osemundschmieden built that established the quality Osemund iron. By 1690 there were nine of these forges on site. At this time, trade was mainly carried out with the surrounding towns.
Neuenrade was affected by fires several times, of which at least eleven have been handed down. These setbacks also limited the city's development. In 1660, Neuenrade was known as the “little town”.
In the 19th century, the place was affected by industrial development. Fixed roads into the Lennetal improved the trade connections to the cities there and indirectly brought a connection to the railroad ( Ruhr-Sieg route ). Only in 1912 did the city get its own railway connection with the Hönnetal-Bahn .
In the run-up to the National Socialists' seizure of power , there was a shootout between three Neuenrad SS men and a local communist in August 1932, which resulted in strong tensions. After the seizure of power, communists and social democrats were arrested and the communists from Neuenrad were taken to a prison in Werl . After the NSDAP had consolidated its local power, the associations and groups were brought into line. The gymnastics club and the Neuenrade football club were merged to form the TuS, the traditional society of “recreation” from 1854 was banned in the town. Due to the National Socialist tax policy (which severely sanctioned the Jews), a Jewish family had to sell their property to the community for lack of money and thus lost almost all of their property. The church struggle was particularly striking in Neuenrade. The evangelical pastor Krause, who worked in Neuenrade, was one of the leading figures of the “ German Christians ” and thus, in contrast to the “ Confessing Christians ”, was a supporter of the National Socialists.
After the beginning of the Second World War, the local branch of the Krupp concern expanded in particular in Neuenrade. Forced laborers were used here as elsewhere in the city. During the Second World War there was relatively little damage in Neuenrade. The "Villa Suhr" of the factory owner Heinrich Suhr (* 1869) was destroyed by a heavy bombing. He had founded a musical instrument factory in Neuenrade in 1889, which in the meantime also operated as the "First and oldest Neuenrader harmonica factory founded in 1889". After the bombing on April 7, 1945, the company was not rebuilt and the sales branches in the Netherlands and America were closed.
Neuenrade was the seat of the Neuenrade office for a long time , to which the towns of Dahle , Werdohl and Ohle also belonged. At the end of the 19th century Werdohl became independent and Ohle Plettenberg was affiliated. Dahle was spun off to Altena when the Neuenrade office was dissolved in 1969 . The formerly independent municipality Küntrop from the Office Balve in Arnsberg district was incorporated simultaneously into the new city.
Religions
history
In 1366 the sovereign had a chapel built. Neuenrade remained a branch of the Werdohl parish. Like other towns in County Mark, Neuenrade became Protestant long before 1564 . As part of the Neuenrader church order, the first German-language hymnbook was published in Westphalia in 1564. The Reformed Confession took hold since 1573.
In 1849 the place had 1235 Protestant, 57 Catholic and 15 Jewish inhabitants. The confessional composition changed due to the incorporation of the districts, which formerly belonged to the predominantly Catholic Duchy of Westphalia . In 2005, 39 percent of the population were Catholic and 37 percent were Protestant. 24 percent belonged to another denomination or religious community or were non-denominational. In addition to Protestant and Catholic parishes, there is also a free church. The Muslims in Neuenrade are organized through the Turkish-Islamic Cultural Center Association in Neuenrade and the surrounding area . This association founded the AMGT Ayasofya Mosque by Millî Görüş at its headquarters in Bahnhofstrasse , which was renamed the Mevlana Mosque and will be built at the new Schöntaler Weg location as the new Mevlana Camii ( IGMG ).
Denomination statistics
According to the 2011 census , 35.0% of the population were Protestant , 36.4% Roman Catholic and 28.7% were non-denominational , belonged to another religious community or did not provide any information. Currently (as of June 30, 2020) of the 12,174 residents, 3,829 (31.5%) are Protestant, 3,956 (32.5%) are Roman Catholic and 4,389 (36.1%) are residents of other or no denominations. The number of Protestants and Catholics has therefore decreased in the observed period.
Incorporations
On January 1, 1969, the Neuenrade office, which until then belonged to the Altena district, was dissolved. This happened in the course of the first phase of the regional reform of North Rhine-Westphalia. It was about the communal restructuring of the rural area, among other things through the dissolution of the offices. The municipality of Dahle, which used to belong to the office, came to the city of Altena. At the same time, the municipality Küntrop , which previously belonged to the Balve district ( Arnsberg district ), came to the city of Neuenrade.
The formerly independent communities of Freiheit Affeln, Altenaffeln and Blintrop (with the exception of a few Blintrop parcels) became districts of Neuenrade through incorporation on January 1, 1975 as a result of the second phase of administrative and territorial reform under the Sauerland / Paderborn law .
Population development
Around the year 1800 only about 1,000 people lived in Neuenrade. The population grew slowly at first. In 1900 it was about 2,000, in the 1930s it was 3,000. After the Second World War , many refugees came to Neuenrade. In 1955 there were around 5,000 inhabitants. After the incorporation of Küntrop in 1969 there were 7,500 inhabitants, in 1975 after the municipal reform 10,600, and currently the number is stagnating at around 12,000 inhabitants.

coat of arms
Divided by yellow and white by a three-rowed red and white bar; above the growing red clad, yellow crowned Mother of God with a blue cloak, on the right arm the baby Jesus, both white nimbly; at the bottom a continuous black cross.
- description
The titular town of Neuenrade was officially awarded its coat of arms on November 25, 1912. The city coat of arms showed the coat of arms of the Counts von der Mark - the red and white checkerboard beam on a yellow background - with the Virgin Mary above the beam. This coat of arms has been in use since the Middle Ages, as shown by a carving on the pulpit of the town church from the 16th century (today's Protestant church). The image of Mary was originally located above the shield, but it is not known when it was incorporated into the shield. After the city was enlarged in 1975 - the communities Affeln, Altenaffeln and Blintrop from the Balve office were added - the old coat of arms was initially continued. In 1978 efforts began to renew the coat of arms. The Kurkölnian cross was inserted in the base of the shield, representing the communities of the former Balve office , which formerly belonged to Kurköln . On March 23, 1979 the new coat of arms was approved, the design came from Prof. Heinrich Hussmann from Cologne.

The Free Waldorf Village School is also located in Neuenrade. The school buildings have been on Remmelshagen since July 2002; It was founded in 1997 in Werdohl. The free school based on Waldorf education is supervised by the school supervisory authority of the Arnsberg district government. Since the 2006/2007 school year, the Neuenrade Waldorf Village School has also been run as an open all-day primary school.
public safety
The Neuenrade volunteer fire brigade , which is divided into two fire engines , provides fire protection and general help in the city. The fleet includes 14 emergency vehicles and one vehicle from the youth fire brigade , which are used by approx. 125 active members (including the youth fire brigade). Extinguishing train I ensures fire protection in the core city. The fire fighting train II consists of the Küntrop fire fighting group and the Affeln fire fighting group. A small specialty are the " first responders ", who call out for certain rescue service and emergency operations and provide qualified first aid until the rescue service arrives.
The ambulance service in Neuenrade is covered by the cities of Werdohl and Balve , as Neuenrade does not have its own ambulance station. In Werdohl and Balve there is an ambulance from the Märkischer Kreis ambulance service, from which ambulances and an emergency doctor move out to Neuenrade in the event of an emergency . There is also no hospital, but the next one is in neighboring Werdohl.
A police station can also be found in Neuenrade. This is not manned around the clock, but is manned by an officer during the day. The urban area of Neuenrade is assigned to the Werdohl police station. Since the Neuenrader urban area is a separate district, the police are represented in the town hall with an officer and a company vehicle. Last but not least, this is intended to achieve a police presence, prevention of crime and proximity to the citizen.
