Overview of Urbecke (front) and Höcklingsen
|
As part of the formerly independent municipality of Becke, Urbecke has been part of the city of Hemer since the municipal reorganization on January 1, 1975 . Urbecke is located in the south of the Becke and thus borders on the town center of Hemer.
The Urbecke was first mentioned in a document in the 16th century. Due to the fertile soil, the area was used for agriculture early on. In the 19th century there was an iron stone mine, but a central farm and the surrounding fields still characterize the area.
