geography

The hamlet is located about seven kilometers southeast of the Schmallenberg core city and about three kilometers south of the Schmallenberg district Grafschaft at about 430  m above sea level. NN . The towns of Latrop , Schanze , Grafschaft and Kühhude are adjacent to Störmecke . Three residents live in Störmecke .

history

Several families of charcoal burners settled in simple dwellings in the Latrop area around 1730 at the suggestion of the Grafschaft monastery . Seven years later, a charcoal burner from the groom clan married a woman from the county. The family later moved to Wennemen. Two of the family's sons returned around 1800. In 1815 one of the brothers built the first permanent house in Störmecke. Because of the poor living conditions, the other brother also asked the Hessian forest authority for permission to build a permanent house. However, his first application in 1810 and the subsequent application were rejected. The third application in 1815 was positive, so that the second house in Störmecke was probably completed in the same year (today's Becker house). Another house of the Degenhardt family was built around 1835.

Until the local reorganization, Störmecke belonged to the Grafschaft municipality, and since January 1, 1975 to the town of Schmallenberg.

Others

When working through the history of the houses in Latrop, it was possible to research that the ancestors of the former German ambassador to the United Nations and later Minister of Justice of the state of Brandenburg , Hans-Otto Bräutigam , also come from Latrop-Störmecke, as do those of the famous Schmallenberger Country - Stars Tom Astor .
