Sterkrade is a district of Oberhausen , which is divided into the districts of Alsfeld with Dunkelschlag , Barmingholten , Biefang , Buschhausen , Holten , Königshardt , Schmachtendorf with Waldhuck and Waldteich , Schwarze Heide with Weierheide , Sterkrade-Mitte, Tackenberg with Sterkrader Heide and Walsumermark with Brink and Neuköln is structured. It borders in the northwest on the city of Dinslaken ( Wesel district ), in the east on the independent city of Bottrop and the Oberhausen district of Osterfeld , in the south on the district of Alt-Oberhausen and in the west on the Duisburg district of Hamborn .
Sterkrade has the rank of a middle center . The attractiveness of its city center and the local retailers was initially reduced by the new construction of the Centr O in the Neue Mitte Oberhausen , but since the opening of the “Sterkrader Tor” shopping center in May 2007 it has become more popular again. The weekly market in Sterkrade is the largest market in Oberhausen.
The traditional Sterkrad Corpus Christi fair was at times the largest street fair in Europe.
history
Several archaeological findings show that the Sterkrad area was already settled in the early Middle Ages . The most important of these is a Franconian burial ground from the Merovingian era , which was found by chance during construction work in the Weseler Strasse / Oskarstrasse area in 1921 and made accessible through excavations in 1936. Gold coins found about 900 m away from the first half of the 6th century underline Sterkrad's early medieval beginnings, but do not seem to have any closer relationship with the burial ground.
The oldest written mention of the settlement dates from around 890 when they under the name "Starkinrotha" in Urbar the Will Abbey was performed. Other forms of name handed down from the Middle Ages are Sterkerotha , Stoerkenrotha , Starkerode or Starkenrade . The ending -rode or -rade refers to clearing as the starting point for settlement, but it is unclear whether the first half of the place name is supposed to testify to heavy clearing or a person named Starko - both hypotheses are still supported.
Up until the beginning of the 19th century, the history of Sterkrade was strongly influenced by the Sterkrade Monastery of the Cistercians , which was founded in 1240 as a branch of the Duissern Monastery , which in turn had emerged from the Cistercian Monastery of Saarn only a few years earlier . The sisters originally settled on Gut Defth (located in the Kirchhellen- Grafwald district of today's town of Bottrop), but must have moved to Sterkrade by spring 1255 at the latest. A document from Mechthild von Holten must be dated to this point in time , which gave the monastery the right of patronage over the Sterkrad church and gave it a mill and a fish pond. Further donations from Mechthild and her descendants secured the material basis of the monastery community and laid the foundation for extensive land ownership. A document from November 1266 mentions the place and monastery in one context for the first time: conventus sanctimonialium Cysterciensis ordinis in Starkerode . Monasterium de rivulo sancte Marie ("Kloster am Marienbächlein") is attested as a proper name of the monastery . The Sterkrad city coat of arms is derived from a personal seal of the abbess Anna Catharina von Nunum, called Dücker, who held office from 1674 to 1715. As a result of the Reichsdeputationshauptschluss of 1803, the monastery was abolished; the certificate of dissolution is dated July 15, 1809. The former monastery building subsequently became a residential building. In 1969, the last part of the former abbey, the east wing, built in 1701, was demolished without the state curator's knowledge .
Today's provost church of St. Clemens emerged from the former patron church of the monastery . The oldest Protestant church in the core of Sterkrade, which was purely Catholic until around 1800, is the Friedenskirche , consecrated in 1852 , which was relieved at the beginning of the 20th century by the opening of the Christ Church .
Originally Klevian Sterkrade belonged after 1815 to the mayor's office in Holten in the Dinslaken district , from September 27, 1823 to the Duisburg district , from December 8, 1873 to the Mülheim an der Ruhr district and from 1887 to the Ruhrort district . On April 1, 1886, Sterkrade became mayor with the four communities of Sterkrade, Stadt and Feldmark Holten , Amt Holten (Biefang) and Buschhausen . The mayor's office came to the Ruhrort district on April 20, 1887 and to the Dinslaken district on April 1, 1909. On April 20, 1909, the greater part of Buschhausen was incorporated into Sterkrade, and at the same time Oberhausen received the Grafenbusch with Oberhausen Castle . On March 17, 1913, Sterkrade received city rights , the Sterkrade mayor was divided into the town of Sterkrade and the mayor of Holten. As early as July 1, 1917, the Holten mayor's office, together with a large part of the Hiesfeld mayor's office - the towns of Barmingholten, Schmachtendorf and Walsumermark - was incorporated into the town of Sterkrade, which also became a district .
The town of Hamborn tried unsuccessfully in the 1920s under its mayor Hugo Rosendahl, who was born in Sterkrade, to merge the towns of Sterkrade, Dinslaken and Hamborn. There were plans to merge the cities of Duisburg, Oberhausen, Mülheim an der Ruhr , Dinslaken and the east of the Moers district to form the Ruhr estuary , which at that time would have had about a million inhabitants.
On August 1, 1929, however, Sterkrade was united with Osterfeld and (old) Oberhausen to form the new city of Oberhausen (Rhineland) in the course of the municipal reorganization in the Ruhr area . To the west, the new city of Duisburg-Hamborn was created , an amalgamation of the cities of Duisburg, Hamborn and the northern part of the Düsseldorf district.
In terms of industrial history, Sterkrade is closely connected to the Gutehoffnungshütte (GHH) and the Sterkrade colliery . The settlement and upswing of industry in the 19th century had a significant impact on population development. This effect was also reinforced by incorporations.

In the last few decades, as in the entire Ruhr area, the coal and steel industry has lost its role as a leading branch of the economy in Sterkrade . Most of the factory buildings have now disappeared from the cityscape, and a substantial part of the former GHH premises in the center of Sterkrad has been used for another purpose. Of the former large corporation, only part of the MAN Energy Solutions operations are essentially productive on site.
badges and flags
Blazon : Split in silver (white), fronted with three blue bars and at the back divided by a blue bar on which a black raven sits. The upper coat of arms consists of a red wall crown with 3 towers.
Meaning: It is a composite coat of arms; on the one hand the coat of arms of the 20th abbess Anna Catharina von Nunnum called Dücker, from 1674 to 1715 and on the other hand the coat of arms of the dynasty of the Hönnepel von Niederrhein, from which the mother of the abbess comes. Instead of a crest, a wall crown was placed on the coat of arms. Following a resolution by the Sterkrad city council, the city coat of arms was adopted on June 4, 1913. At the same time blue and white were chosen as the city colors.
Flag: Sterkrade carries a flag with the colors blue-white-blue in a ratio of 1: 8: 1 with the city coat of arms in the middle. It can also be hoisted as a banner.
Sterkrade as a city district
In terms of area, Sterkrade is the largest of the three Oberhausen districts. Of the approximately 77 km² of the urban area, 42.15 km² belong to Sterkrade. In terms of population, Sterkrade is in second place behind Alt-Oberhausen. Since the merger in 1929, when Oberhausen had 110,958 inhabitants and Sterkrade only 51,907, this gap has decreased significantly due to a "north migration" of the Oberhausen population that has been observed in recent decades. At the end of 2009 there were 91,725 people in Alt-Oberhausen and 83,021 in Sterkrade.
Social structure
From a socio-spatial perspective on the part of the city, Sterkrade is divided into the social spaces "Sterkrade Mitte" with the districts Buschhausen / Biefang, Sterkrade Mitte, Alsfeld, Tackenberg West as well as Schwarze Heide and "Sterkrade Nord" with Holten / Barmingholten, Schmachtendorf, Walsumermark and Königshardt. The north of Sterkrade scores better than the center of Sterkrades or the city of Oberhausen as a whole in terms of almost all indicators (such as the unemployment rate, transition rate to high school, use of educational assistance or the proportion of transfer recipients).
Politics and administration
The district administration office has been located in the so-called technical town hall, a former administration building of the Gutehoffnungshütte, together with other departments of the Oberhausen city administration. After the municipal elections in 2014, the Sterkrader district representation is composed as follows:
- SPD : seven seats,
- CDU : six seats,
- Alliance 90 / The Greens : two seats,
- Left list : a seat,
- Alliance of Oberhausen Citizens (BOB): one seat.
Made for state elections last Sterkrade together with the constituency Dinslaken 56: Oberhausen II - Wesel I .
