St. Pankratius (Bockum-Hövel)
The St. Pankratius Church is the oldest and most traditional religious building of the Catholic Church in the Hövel district, part of the Bockum-Hövel district of the city of Hamm . According to an unsecured tradition, a church consecrated to Pankratius is said to have been at this position as early as 804 or from around 1025/1030 . In the first half of the 12th century, the original wooden church was replaced by a sandstone church. The current church was built between 1892 and 1894. After extensive destruction in World War II , the church had to be rebuilt between 1954 and 1956. Its pastorate, built in 1564, is a listed building, as are two of the bells inside the church from 1511 and 1678.
history
Parish of St. Pankratius
The Holy Pancras , who at the age of fourteen years under Emperor Diocletian the martyrdom died, enjoyed in the circles of knighthood particularly popular and was often chosen by them to the patron saint. According to Schnieder, his relics were transferred from Rome to Ghent in Flanders in 985 . Already at this time there were lively trade relations between Westphalia and the Flemish ports. A side effect of this relationship was that the saints venerated in Flanders , including Pankratius, also became known in Westphalia.
The church in Hövel could even have been built at an even earlier date. As a result of the Frankish victory in the Saxon Wars of Charlemagne , Liudger first founded the diocese of Münster in 804 , and later churches all over Westphalia. Based on the original parish of Ahlen , to which Hövel belonged, the church was with some probability initially built as a chapel or a simple wooden church belonging to an Oberhof Hövel.
The "unsecured tradition", according to which the church was founded between 1025 and 1030 by a Count Bernhard von Werl-Hövel, belongs more to the realm of legend. This version of the events even found space on an information board next to the entrance portal of the church. The story described by local home keeper Willi Schroeder says that between 1025 and 1030 Bernhard I von Werl-Hövel was the first of the Counts of Hövel to build his own church on a hill near his castle on the north bank of the Lippe and placed it under the patronage of Saint Pankratius should. Bernhard built the church himself according to the customs of the time, so it was not under the control of the Bishop of Munster.
It is very likely that such a church never existed, if only because there was probably never a Count Bernhard von Werl-Hövel (cf. on this topic also the article Count von Hövel ). The confusion about this goes back to a medieval source, the Annalista Saxo . This describes a Count Bernhard who had a daughter named Ida and a granddaughter named Adelheid. According to the Annalista Saxo, Schroeder identified this Bernhard with Bernhard I. von Werl , referring to the earlier research of Paul Leidinger . Leidinger later revised his research results himself. The equation of Bernhard I. von Werl with the Bernhard of the Annalista Saxo results in a number of weighty problems, including the dating of Count Bernhard's life dates. Leidinger comes to the conclusion that Bernhard, mentioned in the Annalista Saxo, should instead be equated with Bernhard II von Werl , the ancestor of the Counts of Arnsberg . The Höveler area was first given to Arnsberg and only became an independent county after the death of the last Arnsberg count in 1124.
A founding of the Pankratius Church by a Count Bernhard under the circumstances described is therefore excluded. So if there was an early St. Stephen's Church, it was not founded by Count Bernhard, but from Münster, possibly by the diocese founder Liudger. Such a church could not have been more than a modest wooden structure. For this view, u. a. that Pankratius was above all the patron saint of the Bergisch noble family , whose rule over the county of Hövel is considered secured after 1124. The veneration of St. Pankratius probably only came to Hövel with the Bergers, so that a possibly earlier church will have been under a different patronage.
A solid sandstone building was first erected in the twelfth century. Chaplain Julius Schwieters from Herbern described the little church at Hövel as a peculiar building towards the end of the 19th century . The single-nave, flat-roofed nave was about fifteen meters long and eight meters wide, with a flat ceiling and originally had four windows. The walls had no braces. In the east, a late Gothic choir with a higher roof and a straight end had been in front of the nave since the beginning of the 16th century. The tower was square with a four-sided pyramid as a roof and corresponded to the building type known from Herringen to Uentrop of a strong Romanesque block on a square floor plan. At the time Kaplan Schwieters was describing it, it leaned precariously to the west; therefore, according to a church bill, it had to be anchored as early as 1498. The invoice says: " Item van den torn to ankerne 6 gold guilders and 12 Pfg. For ysern; the smede 3 Mark and 20 Pfg; Item 2 scepel roggen to bread baked, een guilder 6 Schilden. Before beer, vish and bread; 16 gulden for the master and the servants. "
Until about 1180 the church belonged to the parish of Ahlen. Around 1180, the superior of the Cistercian monastery in the cloister courtyard became a real feudal wife of the St. Pankratius Church in Hövel by order of Prince Bishop Hermann II . The church and rectory (the Wemhof) were built near Hövel Castle on the property of the Lords of Hövel .
In 1193, Bishop Hermann II formed the Archdeaconate of the Provost of St. Martin in Münster, to which the parishes of Ahlen, Bockum and Hövel were assigned. A parish in Hövel is also mentioned in a document in 1217. In addition to Ermelinghof , it also included the Hölter and Geinegge farmers . The right of patronage over the Hövel parish was first held by the Lords of Hövel. They later transferred it to the Count von der Mark , who then passed it on to the Kentrop Monastery . The abbess of Kentrop (located between the former city of Hamm and Burg Mark ) is named in documents as a real feudal wife of the Hövel parish.
In the same way, the church accounts also provide information about the facilities of the house of God. According to a bill from 1489, the church was already equipped with an organ at that time. The bill also reports what the repairs cost and how much the organist was paid. In 1724 a new organ was purchased, which cost 159 thalers.
When Bishop Franz demanded church treasures from all churches in 1534 to compensate for the war costs against the Anabaptists , the monstrance with the other gems was released against payment of 57½ gold gulden.
For a long time, five scythes hung in the tower of the church, which Höveler farmers had hung up there. The prehistory of this strange occurrence: The bishop, as sovereign, raised a levy from the farms for the needs of the country, which was one to two thalers for smaller farms and three to five thalers for larger ones. Schwieters explains: Because of the bad times and frequent war riots, the farms often became “desolate”, with the colonies with women and children leaving the farm and looking for a better lot elsewhere, or not being able to find a new colonus after the sex died out difficulties arose because of the appraisal to be paid by such heirs, as the landlords refused to pay the appraisal of the “desolate” farms themselves. It was therefore determined early on that desolate inheritances should remain free from the estimate. The von Merveldt at Westerwinkel Castle , who owned several abandoned farms in the parish of Hövel, wanted to guarantee the community's valuation. That happened in 1677. The Höveler were upset and took five scythes from the grass mowers that Westerwinkel had sent to the Höveler Mark and hung them up in the church “as an eternal memory”. They were sued in the secular court for this, but the outcome of the dispute is unknown.
The salary of the pastor and the sexton was paid from the income of the parish lands, from foundations and the usual natural taxes of the farmers. For example, the following payments from the Lübbert farm to the pastor are documented: a bushel of barley, two flax. To the sexton: a bushel of rye, half a pig's head, two clumps of flax and a cheese. The other farms had to pay taxes in about the same amount. For some, there was also the fact that they had to prepare a meal for those who were collecting them. The obligations were replaced around 1870 by paying a sum of money. To do this, amounts of around 30 to 70 thalers had to be raised.
In 1323 Deibold von Hövel and his wife Geseke bequeathed an important foundation from Schürkmann's legacy to the pastorate in Hövel. The Schürkmann farm is located in the Nordick peasantry in the Herbern parish. There were twelve bushels of barley, two bushels of wheat and two chickens to be brought to the pastor every year. In return, he had to hold commemorations three times a year. He also had to give the deliverer a meal of beer.
Church conditions remained unchanged for centuries until the storms of the Reformation transformed them. In 1550 Gert von Galen transferred to Haus Ermelinghof to the new apprenticeship. It is probably due to him and his descendants that from 1563 to 1618 Protestant pastors were installed in Hövel.
As a particularly zealous advocate of Luther's doctrine and promoter of German church singing, the pastor Johann Hard found strong support, even from the town of Hamm, which is not in Munster but in Brandenburg. For this reason, the council closed the north gate on Sunday mornings to prevent the flow of people into Hövel. Johann Hard was later called to Hamm as a preacher. In 1618 the pastor Theodor Baggel then fully restored the Catholic service. He worked from 1618 to 1668, exactly fifty years, and had the difficult task of looking after his community during the turmoil of the Thirty Years' War .
During this time he managed to acquire an important property. In 1623 he took possession of the entire Kuhkamp, a pasture 200 m below the Hövel Castle . Later he bought the castle in addition to several cottages, willows and kamps. With these goods as an economic basis, he founded the Vicars Beatae Mariae Virginis as a family foundation in 1663 . Only members of the Baggel and Kluitmann families could hold this position. The name Baggel is still preserved today in the drawings Baggelberg (the land between pastorate and church), Baggelkamp and Bageldiek (the meanwhile filled-in moat of the Hövel house).
For seven centuries, the Höveler buried their dead in the cemetery around the church (or churchyard, as they said at the time). As the population increased over the course of time, a new cemetery was set up on what is now Bahnhofstrasse in 1861, but this was leveled after the Second World War and included as a park in the community's memorial.
At the end of the last century, the old church was no longer sufficient for the growing community either. In 1892 the medieval church with the late Gothic choir was demolished as dilapidated. In the same year, work began on building a new church according to the plans of the architect Wilhelm Ricklake from Münster, which with its tall, slim tower has become a landmark of Hövel and is visible up to the heights of the hairline and far into the Münsterland. Its inauguration took place on July 5, 1894 as part of a large festival. On June 5, 1896, the neo-Gothic parish church was (again) consecrated to St. Pankratius.
The new church served its purpose for fifty years when disaster fell on it in the fifth year of World War II . On this day, enemy bombers attacked central locations in the Münsterland, especially Drensteinfurt and Ahlen. An association that came from the direction of Hamm dropped several bombs on the village of Hövel, two of which hit the nave of the church with the choir and completely destroyed it. The west facade and tower were preserved in the air raid on Hövel on March 22, 1944 despite severe damage; the nave with the choir was destroyed.
A woman who had fled into the tower was very lucky. She got away hurt, but with her life. The surrounding houses were also only damaged. There were no human lives to be mourned. Since that day the Pankratius congregation has been gathering for worship in the parish house in Hövel, which has been expanded to become an emergency church.
Wilhelm Weber , the pastor of the St. Pankratius community since 1939, was imprisoned in the Dachau concentration camp at the time. On November 27, 1943, he was arrested by the Gestapo and initially taken to the Münster penitentiary for behavior that was harmful to the state . From February 19, 1944 to April 10, 1945, he was imprisoned in the so-called pastors' block of the Dachau concentration camp . In the summer of 1945 he returned to Hövel. At first there was hesitation in rebuilding the hall of the St. Pankratius Church at the old location in the middle of Ermelinghofstrasse. They wanted to build a "car-friendly city of the future" and feared traffic impairment. Weber campaigned for the rebuilding of the nave, which was carried out under his direction from 1954 to 1956 (1957). Today's church was built according to the plans of the Münster architects Eberhard Michael Kleffner and Christa Kleffner-Dirxen, incorporating the old westwork in the style of the 1950s. The church has now found its permanent place in the townscape. With the window decorations in the west building, which goes back to the community's sense of sacrifice and the understanding of the pastor Ludwig Bügener, the Pankratius Church is one of the most important ecclesiastical monuments of the city of Hamm today. A stumbling block was laid for Weber in 2009 because of his resistance to the Nazi regime and his deportation to the concentration camp .
Parish of the Holy Spirit
Against the background of the changes in church life and the increasing shortage of priests, Bishop Reinhard Lettmann wrote to the Christians in the Diocese of Munster on June 14, 1999, asking them to consider cooperation. The parish councils and parish councils of the four Bockum-Höveler parishes then met and agreed on the “pastoral care unit” model. This means that all Bockum-Höveler parishes should be looked after jointly by a pastoral team. The new pastoral care council established in this way met for the first time on October 30, 2000. In this way, the four congregations wanted to work closely together to form a network in which full-time and volunteer workers could live an open church. From January 6th and 7th, 2001, the Sunday masses were coordinated in terms of both number and schedule.
On January 1, 2005, the formerly independent parish of St. Pankratius was merged with the parishes of Christ the King, Herz Jesu and St. Stephanus to form the new Catholic parish of Heilig Geist Bockum-Hövel. The four parishes in Bockum-Hövel were dissolved on December 31, 2004. The new parish church is St. Pankratius, the other churches are used as branch churches. This procedure, implemented against resistance from the traditionally local patriotic parishioners Bockum and Hövel, was due to the shortage of priests, an impending financial gap and a dwindling number of believers due to a decline in population and dwindling church affiliation.
Holy Spirit thus has between 12,000 and 13,000 members. Around thirty services are celebrated in the churches every week. Pastors and full-time employees practice “pastoral care with a face”. Rhetorically, the “four parishes” of the parish Heilig Geist are mentioned to make it clear that they are not only viewed as four “districts” of an artificially created administrative unit.
The Catholic parishes of Maria Königin and Herz Jesu in Hamm-Norden have been amalgamated to form the Catholic parish of Clemens August Graf von Galen with effect from November 27th.
With the church Pope John Hamm-Heessen the parishes of the Holy Spirit and Clemens August Graf von Galen form the deanery Hamm-Nord in the county deanery Warendorf of the Diocese of Münster.

Architecture and equipment
The architect Wilhelm Rincklake , master builder of historicism in Westphalia, designed the new construction of the St. Pankratius Church in the old Hövel village center in 1892. In 1894 the construction work was finished. One of the few surviving images shows the narrow, high, vaulted brick hall building, which extends over an area of 13 × 29 meters, with a lower choir and a polygonal 3/8 end from the east.
Not far from the church on the street “Am Wemhof” is the old pastorate, which was now used as the parish hall of St. Pankratius and was built in 1564. The building is built as a hall house in the Münsterland and is a listed building.
The current church was built between 1954 and 1957 according to plans by Eberhard Michael Kleffner and Christa Kleffner-Dirxen. To this end, the architects added a wider and longer hall structure to the preserved westwork, which consists of a central tower with small ancillary rooms on both sides. This measures twenty meters in length and fifteen meters in width. A recessed choir with a flat rounded apse adjoins this in the east. A coffered ceiling extends over the hall and choir. Two high windows, glazed in a simple geometric pattern, above bay-like niches, which go back to a design by Vinzenz Piper from Münster, give the hall plenty of light from both sides. The tower has a height of 67 meters and can be seen far into the surrounding area of Hövel. On the outside at the corners of the bell storey there are sculptures of saints: in the north-west Ludgerus, the first bishop of Münster, with a goose at his side; in the northeast Paul, patron saint of the diocese; in the southeast Pope Leo XIII. (1878–1903), who, like his early medieval predecessor Pope Gregory the Great, is depicted with a dove on his shoulder, symbolizing the Holy Spirit; in the southwest Peter with the sword.
You can enter the church through a portal in the west. Visitors first recognize a large mosaic picture dominating the apse. The objectivity and austerity of the ambitious interior are softened by this large-scale mosaic installed above the altar in the early 1980s. It depicts the risen Jesus Christ enthroned on the arch of heaven in the manner of a Majestas Domini; surrounded by the symbols of the four evangelists. The picture was created in 1975 at the instigation of Pastor Ludger Bügener (1973–1990) as the result of a competition based on artistic specifications by Sister Erentrud Trost OSB from the Varensell Benedictine monastery .
Previously, in 1967, Pastor Ludwig Uhlenbrock (1961–1973) had the chancel redesigned in accordance with the liturgy requirements of the Second Vatican Council. The choir is illuminated by a large window that takes up the entire south side. It was also designed by Vinzenz Pieper , manufactured by Otto Peters from Paderborn and donated by the Mothers' Association.
A few other redesigns were carried out under the direction of the architect Herbert Dunkel. That is why the reduced altar made of Anröchter dolomite is now elevated by a few steps and moved towards the community. He has a lecture cross from 1521 on his side. The north wall of the choir square is structured by a rectangular brick construction. This protrudes into the open space. In the upper, triple staggered area, the organ pipes were visible. There is space for the singers below. To the right of the choir, on the shield walls, there is now a baroque altar, which was originally owned by the von Thurn und Taxis family and was transferred to the Malteser Hospital in 1913. When it was rebuilt, it was no longer needed there. The altar, which is adorned with the family coat of arms of the Hereditary General Postmaster of the German Reich, the Maltese Cross and the pelican as a symbol of Christian charity, was thoroughly restored by the Hanno Hesse company from Lippstadt and was moved to the Pankratius Church in 1980.
The baptismal font is made of spolia from the 17th and 19th centuries. Above that on the front wall on the left is a Madonna from the 19th century; a gift from the parish of St. Gorgonius in Goldenstedt near Oldenburg to the Pankratius Church. The stand for the baptismal candle comes from the possession of the diocese of Münster.
Also noteworthy are the carvings by the sculptor Franz Xaver Willmann, who can also be found in other Hammer churches, who enriched the church with St. Joseph and the Stations of the Cross.
In the 1980s, the westwork, which can still be traced back to Wilhelm Rincklage, was redesigned. The northern side room of the tower on the ground floor was converted into a baptistery with large colored glazing. A crucifix from the mid-18th century was added to the southern entrance area. The mooring above the two adjoining rooms of the tower opens up towards the church hall with a narrow, pointed arch opening in the middle area of the tower, which is wider. An opening in the floor of the gallery allows a view of three large tracery windows in the western front. In 1985, Hermann Gottfried designed continuous colored glazing for these windows, which was manufactured by Otto Peters from Paderborn. The large central window reminds of the work of Bishop Clemens August von Galen. It shows the figure of the cardinal as well as his motto Nec laudibus nec timore ( neither praise nor blame ). The cardinal's raised arm points to the eternal truth of God's word. The lower zone of the window shows creation and growth, in the one above the war can be seen as the destroyer, indicating the tense situation of the time in which the cleric had to prove himself.
The narrower window on the left, i.e. to the south, shows the patron saint of the church, St. Pankratius. Since Pankratius was baptized in his youth and died a martyr a short time later, the baptism of Christ and in the intermediate scenes penance and anointing of the sick are visible as further signs of sacramental community. The right window is dedicated to Saint Nicholas. Along with Panktratius, he was patron saint of the church until the 17th century. He is considered a helper for those in need. That is why the feeding of the hungry through Christ is shown in the upper corner.
The most recent work of art was installed in the church in 1997. The image goes back to a tall shooter from the Höveler Schützenverein. When the latter put his hat on the empty pedestal on the pillar of the westwork during a service, the preacher jokingly said that a better use could be found for the base. The riflemen took this to heart and donated a bronze sculpture of two resistance fighters from the two Christian churches under National Socialism, which could be erected there three years later. The sculptor Georg Ahrens from Weibern / Eifel formed the figures of Dietrich Bonhoeffer and Karl Leisner, which were finally cast in bronze by the Cologne company Wilhelm Schweitzer. Ahrens was Elmar Hillebrand's assistant in Aachen in the late 1970s and was a visiting professor at the University of Lin / China in the late 1990s. The sculptures are on the east wall of the old westwork, from where you can see the large new glass windows.
To the left of this is a bronze statue of St. Panktratius, in whose base plate the relics of the church patron, once preserved in the altar of the church, are incorporated. The statue was created in the late 1960s by the sculptor Ernst Paulfeierborn from Paderborn.
The listed bell
The bells from 1511 and 1678 are also listed.
The church bell of the demolished old church originally had three bells and a small clock bell hanging on the outside of the tower roof. This was taken over in the new building completed in 1894 and built into the new tower. Apart from the clock bell, only the two large main bells remain from the bells of the old Höveler church. The larger of the two bells (dating back to 1511) is the work of master bell founder Wolter Westerhues . It shows the lace-like ornaments typical of his bells and is of a particularly skillful cast. The second surviving bell (made in 1678) was cast by the master Gottfried de la Paix . Both bells have been a listed building since January 8, 2003 (serial number 260).
A third originally existing small bell of the tower bells, which was cast by Christian Wilhelm and Rutgerus Voigt (father and son) in Isselburg in 1768, was permanently lost in the First World War .
To replace the destroyed bell, two new bells were made in 1925, which were lost again in the Second World War , so that in 1963 two new bells had to be cast again to complete the ringing.
The clock bell that Johann Scheys made in Münster in 1749 (strike note f sharp '' + 5, diameter 493 mm) was also preserved and was given to the Westphalian Bell Museum in Gescher via a detour (Hof Schulze-Elberg) .

St. Pankratius day care center
On May 12, 1964, the foundation stone was laid for the St. Pankratius day care center, which the St. Pankratius community commissioned as the client. The architect was Herbert Dunkel . The building was inaugurated and occupied on May 2, 1965.
In 1976, architect Dunkel added a group and side room. In 1993 the toilets were renovated, including some of the windows. In 2004/05 extensive additions and modifications were made. The facility was also renovated. The architects here were Dirk and Norbert Schulenberg.
The garden of the daycare center has also been redesigned several times. In 1978 the sand map was renewed. Two chestnuts were also planted and a slide hill was created. This was expanded in 1994. The playground was divided into several play areas and the large slide was installed. In 1998 the playground was expanded; Then in 1999 the redesign of the courtyard area. In 2005 the drainage in the courtyard was renewed, a container was installed and the playground was expanded again. A garden shed dates from 2006, as does the large seating area made of boulders. In 2007, bars were set up, a round bench was built, the path to the container was fixed and a garden gate was installed. In 2008 two large wooden huts were erected and the parking lot in front of the house was expanded. In 2010 the hunter fence was dismantled and replaced with a new one, and a hanging scaffold could be erected.
From an educational point of view, too, there have been numerous innovations over the years. Integrative education was introduced in 1992, midday care in 1995 and school child care from 1998 to 2001. In 1998 a meeting point for single women was established, in 2005 the focus facility with day care group. On August 1, 2008, the new Child Education Act (“Kibiz”) was passed and the day-care center was then adapted to its needs. This also included the additional single-user integration. In October 2008, the daycare center was certified by the state of North Rhine-Westphalia as a family center in conjunction with the municipal daycare center Ermelinghof.
Since August 1, 2005, the daycare center has been a priority facility. 70 children are cared for in two standard groups, 25 children each from 3 to 6 years of age, as well as a day care group with 20 children, including five children with various forms of disability, also aged 3 to 6 years. The day care center takes part in the “Quam” quality development process, which is accompanied by the DICV. The work processes are thus made binding and made transparent to all parents. In October 2008, the daycare center was awarded the “Family Center NRW” seal of approval.
Counseling for families includes parenting, mother / father / child / cures, nutrition, marital problems, pregnancy and newborns. There are also seminars and courses on how to deal with farewells, back training, aerobics and FuN (families and neighborhood). The day care center helps with questions about childcare, illness and the absence of the head of the household. Further information is cross-generational contacts, a German course for Turkish women, a meeting point for single women with childcare and regular parents' evenings with educational topics.
