history
On January 15, 1875, the new community of Kupferdreh was formed from the honnships Hinsbeck and Rodberg of the community Siebenhonnschaften in the mayor's office Werden -Land. The future Hall quarry stone building on a hillside at the Kupferdreher road is dated with an inscription to the year 1880 and was on 10 December 1987 under monument protection provided.
On October 15, 1896, the municipalities of Kupferdreh and Byfang were released from the Werden-Land mayor and elevated to the status of Kupferdreh, with the house being expanded into a town hall. When the mayor's office in Kupferdreh was founded, there were 7334 residents. As of September 30, 1896, Jacob Hubert Arntz finally became the first mayor of Kupferdreh on August 13, 1897. Arntz was born on February 22nd, 1865 as the son of an accountant in Kleve . After a job with the government in Düsseldorf, he became district secretary at the Essen District Office and auditor at the Essen Royal Tax Office in 1891. Mayor Arntz was removed from office on February 19, 1901 because of disciplinary proceedings. After moving to Düsseldorf and later Cologne, his trace is lost.
On April 1, 1899, the Dilldorf farmers and parts of the Vossnacken farmers from the Hardenberg municipality of the Mettmann district were assigned to the Kupferdreh municipality.
In September 1901, Johann Wilhelm Krake took over the mayor's office as a substitute and took it over in full on July 12, 1902. Krake was born on March 7, 1863 as the son of a mechanical engineer and was most recently a district committee secretary in Mülheim an der Ruhr . He retired on October 1, 1919 and died in Essen on April 27, 1927.
Hermann Gerhard Pieper became the third mayor of Kupferdreh . He was born on April 6, 1881 as the son of a craftsman and attended the Burggymnasium . From April 2, 1897, he worked for the Essen city administration and then trained for the higher administrative service. After participating in the war and returning from the First World War , he was commissioned to set up and run the administration school of the city of Essen and, before he became mayor of Kupferdreh, he was appointed senior city secretary. From August 1, 1920 he held the office on a provisional basis. After his appointment on February 1, 1921, he was finally installed on March 23 of that year. In 1922, as a first step towards the local reorganization, the entire municipality of Kupferdreh was formed from the two previous individual municipalities of Kupferdreh and Byfang.
With the dissolution of the mayor's office of Kupferdreh and the incorporation into the city of Essen on August 1, 1929, the Kupferdreher Town Hall and all of its properties became the property of the city of Essen. The administrative offices remained in the now former town hall and Hermann Gerhard Pieper was their head until he retired on April 1, 1934. He then became managing director of the non-profit exhibition company, which later became Messe Essen , and director of the Essen city harbor during the Second World War . Pieper died on May 17, 1962 and found his final resting place in the Bredeney cemetery .
On February 11, 1971, all remaining offices finally moved out of the former Kupferdreher town hall and it was initially leased to a company. After the renovation in 1988, physically handicapped adults moved into the former town hall through an integration project in order to be able to lead an independent life. It has been preserved and inhabited in this form to this day.
