Due to the expansion of the Hambach opencast mine in a south-westerly direction, the place was relocated. At the end of 2011, Tanneck was finally taken over by the opencast mine.

history

Tanneck was best known for his horse stud that dates back to 1860. In the middle of the 19th century, the Langen entrepreneurial family settled in Tanneck to set up their summer residence in the Tanneck house. This summer residence was used as a hospital during the Nazi era and almost completely destroyed by air raids in 1944.

In 1952 Adolf Schindling bought Haus Tanneck and renamed it the ASTA Stud . ASTA was chosen as the acronym for Adolf Schindling Tachometer , a Schindling company that later became the VDO works .
