Location and description

history

The first references to Offermannsheide come from the 13th century combined with a chapel. Around 1550, mass celebrations by the pastor from Kürten are first recorded in the chapel. That only happened on high feast days. Otherwise the people had to make the long way to Kürten. It was not until 1781 that efforts were made to have a permanent worship service on site. The so-called " hero pastor " Johann Peter Ommerborn worked as vicar and pastor in Offermannsheide from 1793 to 1796 and built the rectory that still stands today. In 1882 the old and now dilapidated chapel was demolished and construction of the new church in the neo-Romanesque style began. It was completed in 1883.

The Topographia Ducatus Montani by Erich Philipp Ploennies from 1715, Blatt Amt Steinbach , shows that the place, called Ofermannsheid there, already existed in 1715 and consisted of several courtyards. From the chart of the Duchy of Berg in 1789 by Carl Friedrich von Wiebeking it emerges that Offermannsheide was part of the Engelsdorf community in the parish of Kürten at that time .

Under the French administration between 1806 and 1813, the Steinbach office was dissolved and Offermannsheide was politically assigned to the Mairie Kürten in the canton of Wipperfürth in the Elberfeld arrondissement . In 1816 the Prussians converted the Mairie to the mayor's office in Kürten in the Wipperfürth district . At that time Offermannsheide belonged to the municipality of Kürten.

The place is recorded on the topographical survey of the Rhineland from 1824 as Offermannsheid and on the Prussian first survey from 1840 as Oppermannsheide . From the Prussian new admission in 1892, it is regularly listed as Offermannsheide on measuring table sheets .

In 1822 12 people lived in the place categorized as a courtyard. The place with a chapel, categorized as a hamlet according to the overview of the government district of Cologne in 1845 , had two houses at that time. At that time there were eight people living in the village, all of them of Catholic faith. In the municipality lexicon for the province of Rhineland from 1888, five houses with 19 residents are given. In 1905 the place had five houses with 24 inhabitants.

In 1927 the mayor's office in Kürten was transferred to the office of Kürten. In the Weimar Republic in 1929 the offices of Kürten were merged with the municipalities of Kürten and Bechen and Olpe with the municipalities of Olpe and Wipperfeld to form the office of Kürten. The Wipperfürth district became part of the Rheinisch-Bergisch district on October 1, 1932, with its seat in Bergisch Gladbach .

In 1975 the current municipality of Kürten was established on the basis of the Cologne Act , to which, in addition to the offices of Kürten, Bechen and Olpe, a sub-area of ​​the city of Bensberg with Dürscheid and the surrounding areas was added.
