Location of Rölsdorf in Düren

Rölsdorf is a district of the city of Düren in the Düren district in North Rhine-Westphalia . In the vernacular, Rölsdorf is nicknamed "Little France" because of its once numerous French-speaking inhabitants.

location

Rölsdorf is located in the west of the old town center, on the other side of the Rur . The Lendersdorfer Mühlenteich and the Birgeler Bach coming from Birgel and flowing into the Rur flow through the village . The Birgeler Bach, which today flows under the Lendersdorfer Mühlenteich at the level of the Bahnstraße, had previously served as a water inflow for the mill pond.

Incorporation

Rölsdorf was an independent municipality until April 1, 1937. With 2312 inhabitants, it was the first neighboring town to come to the city of Düren. During the incorporation, the names of the following streets were changed: Hoeschweg ( Gürzenicher Straße ), Lindenallee ( Monschauer Straße between Cornetzhof and Gürzenicher Straße ), Oberstraße (Monschauer Straße between Gürzenicher Straße and Monschauer Landstraße ), Friedhofstraße (Am Schlagbaum), Eisenbahnstraße (Bahnstraße ), Freiheitstrasse (then Schellartstrasse , today An Sankt Nikolaus ), Brückstrasse (An der Ziegelei), Birgeler Landstrasse (Monschauer Landstrasse).

In the settlement the streets were named after field names: Eldernweg, An der Erk, Waidfeld, Auf dem Büchel, Blachweg, Hammerau and Farbmühlenstraße.

history

Rölsdorf was already settled in Roman times . When the old church was demolished (the location of the parish hall, which was demolished in 2018), the remains of a Romanesque chapel built there around 1200 , with Roman bricks found in the masonry, were discovered. In addition, Roman building remains were found in the area to Gürzenich. Several cremation and skeleton graves from this period, which were found 60 meters from the old church and in the southern part of the village, prove the ancient settlement. In 1957, during excavation work on the property at Monschauer Straße 166, round bricks from Roman underfloor heating were found ( hypocaust ). Rubble and Roman fragments were found in the adjacent garden area.

Rölsdorf is first mentioned on a document dated February 18, 1268, by the name of Johannes de Rulstorp . As the ending torp clearly shows, it was originally a feudal courtyard that served the liege's self-sufficiency . A chapel was first mentioned in 1357 , which was probably built in the 12th century. On a document from the city of Nideggen from March 25, 1390 u. a. a Henken van Ruylstorp called. In 1543 Düren was besieged from Rölsdorf by the troops of Emperor Charles V. Rölsdorf went up in flames. In 1748 the first stone bridge was built over the Rur. On Lendersdorf millpond one was from 1785 to 1790 Farbmühle commissioned. The Gohr restaurant, which still exists today, was opened on March 1, 1851 by Peter Josef Gohr. On October 31, 1866, Rölsdorf was raised to the parish of St. Nikolaus .

One of the few old houses

In 1871 there were 719 inhabitants. On June 15, 1887, Rölsdorf received its first own post office. In 1901 the rectory at Monschauer Straße 134 was built. Construction began only eight months earlier, namely on February 3, 1901. The chaplaincy in Monschauer Strasse 98 was built in 1903.

The youth stadium , inaugurated on August 14, 1921, was given a cycling track two years later , on which motorcycle races were also held after the war (inauguration on July 8, 1923). The city of Düren bought the Boisdorf estate from the Düren district on May 19, 1937 at a price of RM 380,000 .

There were also Jewish citizens in Rölsdorf until 1941. Born in Rölsdorf and murdered by the Nazis: Eva Roer, Eleonore Fromm geb. Michel and her husband Moses Fromm. Friedrich (Fritz) Roer's family lived in the demolished house no. 75, to the left of the Jägerhof (Rölsdorf) . The family of Moses Fromm lived at house no. 50, now demolished, now Monschauer Straße 183. Both had a butcher's and cattle trade. A pot of beef soup stood on the stove the whole week, from which each arm got a plate. They were all popular in the village. The restaurant of Matthias Bonn, Oberstrasse 76, (today Monschauer Strasse 217, Hotel Jägerhof) was the local branch of the Reichsbundischer Frontsoldaten (RjF), local group Düren, after the First World War , chaired by the businessman Kurt Hahn, Düren, Oberstr. 37. On Sundays they played soccer on Matthias Bonn's meadow in Bachstrasse. Because of its friendliness towards Jews, the restaurant was boycotted from 1934 to 1945. The former NSDAP local group leader and deputy NSDAP district leader, the mayor Georg Logauer, had forbidden entering the restaurant. In 1935 the facade of the restaurant, the front door and the courtyard gate were smeared with anti-Jewish slogans and Jewish noses with red paint, and the windows were thrown in.

On June 9, 1941, the tram depot on Bahnstrasse burned down. The place was the first district to be supplied with fresh water from the Birgel waterworks on July 1, 1945.

During the Second World War , the Americans occupied Rölsdorf on December 17, 1944 and went from there to the city center via the Rur.

In the summer of 1945, citizens of Rölsdorf founded the Düren-Rölsdorf Antifa Committee. Under the leadership of this committee, former Nazis were called in to compulsory work (removal of war rubble) in Rölsdorf from September 1945.

The glassworks settlement was built between 1948 and 1949 for the expelled glass workers from Penzig in Lower Silesia . The part-time settlement was built in 1955/56. At the beginning of 1957 the local sewer system started. In 1969 the bottleneck “Teichbrücke” in Monschauer Strasse was removed.

In April 1972, the St. Nikolaus retirement home on Dr.-Overhues-Allee was inaugurated. In 1980, the Mittelrhein Football Association restored Villa Mevis and prepared it for staff training.

From 1966 to 1990 the building of the Birgel office was located in Rölsdorf , later a branch of the city administration of Düren. Then the building was converted into the Rölsdorfer clubhouse .

traffic

As early as 1852, a stop was set up in Rölsdorf on the new Düren – Monschau passenger mail route . On October 6, 1908, the Düren – Rölsdorf – Lendersdorf tram line of the Dürener Kreisbahn (DKB) was opened. After the war, the Düren-Lendersdorf tramway was again open from the Rurbrücke on December 27, 1947. Tram traffic was taken over by buses from 1954 .

Until the new bypass road was built, all traffic in the Eifel in the direction of Monschau drove through the town center via the B 399 . In 1987 the local thoroughfare was dismantled and the Bahnstraße was used as a bypass.

The B 264 only goes through a short section through the village.

Personalities

Others

Castle

The Rölsdorfer Burg was a moated castle and stood on the site of the current Volkspark. On the topographical survey of the Rhineland carried out between 1801 and 1828 under Jean Joseph Tranchot , a triangular courtyard is shown there.

Thummermuth

In 1585 Johann Dommermoit (Thummermuth v. Ruilstorf) was enfeoffed with the Burghof zu Rölsdorf, who still owned it in 1622. 30 acres of arable land belonged to the Lehnshof Rölsdorf. "The Dommermut feudal estate in the Lendersdorf court, which was compulsory with a saddle horse, had to charge the prince with wine in the Nideggen office and bring it to Hambach or Düsseldorf , and also to transport barrels, tires, drums and fish." The family's coat of arms: a white shield with a horizontal one , black bar in the middle, two above and a black Antonius cross below . The coat of arms is carved in stone inside the right aisle of the church in Lendersdorf . Several members of the Dommermoet (Dommermuth) family were mayors in the neighboring court in Lendersdorf. Between 1672 and 1675 there were inheritance disputes over the Roelsfeld estate. The plaintiffs were Friedrich Heinrich von Bartholdt zu Bruchhausen and Peter Blum as guardian of his underage daughter from his marriage to Anna Katharina von Löwenstein. The defendants were Anna Maria von Löwenstein called Ramberg and Johanna Sibylla von Löwenstein, widow of Schellart in Düren.

Faustenhof

In 1748 the Rölsdorfer Burghof was called Faustenhof and was owned by the administrator Dackweiler, who lived in Holzweiler . His wife, Maria Gertrud geb. Wolf, had the farm from her parents, Rutger Wolf and Anna Margaretha, geb. from Droif, inherited. On November 11, 1748, Maria Gertrude Wolf leased the Faustenhof to Wilhelm Schürgen for 12 years. 75 acres of land belonged to the farm . By marriage, the farm came into the possession of the von Schellard family. In 1812 Theodosius von Schellard bequeathed the Faustenhof to his second wife. The courtyard was demolished in the first half of the 19th century. The last resident of the courtyard was Matthias Krudewig.

Mills

There used to be several watermills in the municipality of Rölsdorf . These were located on two different mill ditches , the Lendersdorfer mill pond and the Jammerthalsteich. At the Lendersdorf mill pond was the Loesch or Dalwigh mill at Gut Boisdorf, which was once used as a paper mill or as a grain mill. Today it is called Boisdorfer Mühle and generates electricity. The Lünenschloss mill was later a paint mill owned by Paul Emil Hoesch. The Farbmühlenstraße still indicates its earlier existence. And the ten-pfennig mill, also called Napps mill, was used as a loh mill or later as a paper mill. Today the Friedrich Papier (Fripa) paper mill is located on the site.

Three more mills were located on the Jammerthalsteich . The Jammerthalsteich , which no longer exists today, branched off from the Rur at about Gut Boisdorf , a little downstream. It ran along today's Dr.-Overhues-Allee parallel to the Rur downstream. The thimble mill, which was also used as an oil mill and later as a tar mill, was located on this mill pond. The thimble mill was located at the Dr. Overhues Allee to the left of the street Am Jugendstadion . Then came the Katterbachsmühle. The Katterbachsmühle was located between today's Cornetzhofschule and the Rur, northwest of today's retirement home. This pond then crossed today's Monschauer Strasse at the level of the Ferebauer (Opel) car dealership. On the other side of the street at this pond was the Jammertalshof / Spitalmühle (grain mill). This mill belonged to a hospital or hospital . In an arc towards the Rur, the Jammerthalsteich crossed Valencienner Strasse (Düren) in front of the Stadtpark restaurant . It flowed in an arc around the Stadtparkrestaurant through the area of ​​today's Willy-Brandt-Park (Stadtpark) and flowed back into the Rur before the Bismarck Bridge (Tivolistraße). This mill pond and the mills are shown on the topographical survey of the Rhineland carried out between 1801 and 1828 under Jean Joseph Tranchot . The street In der Mühlenau in Rölsdorf is a reference to these mills.

Napp's factory

The Ludwig Napp & Cie tannery , leather factory and glue boiler were located on the factory site (today Friedrich Papier) at Lendersdorf's mill pond . In 1895 a fire destroyed the mill and the machines. In 1933 an overturning chimney damaged the existing buildings. Most of the factory buildings were demolished in 1940. The Jewish citizens from Rölsdorf and the surrounding area were housed in a room in the former Napp factory from spring 1941 until they were deported to a concentration camp in 1942. During the Second World War, there was also a forced labor camp on the factory premises .

House stones

House stone made of clay on Monschauer Strasse 173

Between 1955 and 1961, at the instigation of the pastor Leonhard Meurer, students at the Cologne factory schools made around 60 house stones, comparable to a house brand , from clay or slate . This mastaba - reliefs can be found in many homes today. In their multitude, they are unique in the area.

societies

In Rölsdorf there are a large number of clubs, from the May society to the shooting club , which cannot be listed here because of their size. Rölsdorf was also the seat of the Restitution Association for NS Victims founded on May 13, 1961 in Düren . V.

movie theater

Until the 1960s there was the “ Scala Theater ” in Rölsdorf . It was located on Monschauer Strasse about across from “Zum Volkspark”. Today the house Monschauer Straße 142 with a garage yard is located on the property. The cinema was in a hall that no longer exists today. This hall existed as early as 1932 and originally belonged to the restaurant of the innkeeper Arnold Scheeben (Oberstrasse 160, today Monschauer Str. 144). The showcase with the film posters was on the brick wall between the properties at Monschauer Strasse 140/142.

Taste Marie

Schmecke Marie (Maria Elsen) is one of the well-known Düren originals at the fountain monument in Wirtelstraße . Schmecke Marie last lived in Rölsdorf in a small, old house at the end of the street Zum Volkspark (previously Burgstraße ), on the right, just before the Lendersdorfer mill pond .
