history
The Wadgassen Abbey had exchanged a forest area for Prince Wilhelm Heinrich von Nassau-Saarbrücken in 1759 and established a farm there in 1761, which was initially named after the founder of the Premonstratensian Order “St. Norbertshof “was named. Later the name "Warndtshof" or "Warndthof" became common. State sovereignty over the Wadgassen Abbey and the court came to the Kingdom of France in 1766 in the Bockenheim Treaty of Nassau-Saarbrücken and the Holy Roman Empire . After the French Revolution , Wadgassen Abbey was dissolved, and the farm was declared national property in 1792 and transferred to private ownership. The farm has now been added to the French community of Creutzwald . The farm consisted of about 370 acres of arable land, 30 days of meadow, gardens and two ponds the size of 10 acres.
In the Second Peace of Paris in 1815, France had to cede the Warndtwald with the Warndthof. In the border convention between Prussia and France it was agreed in 1829 to leave the Warndtwald with the Warndthof near Prussia . The edge of the forest should form the state border. The residents of the Warndthof were henceforth attributed to Friedrichweiler . In 1846 the "Warndtshof" belonged to the Differten mayor in the Saarlouis district and comprised a house and four people, all Catholic.
In 1855 the last private owner Heinrich Ismert sold the farm for 1,600 guilders to the Prussian Mining Office in Saarbrücken . This swapped the yard area for forest parcels in the Fischbachtal, which were needed there for mining facilities. The Warndtshof buildings were converted by the Royal Prussian Forestry Administration into official apartments for forest officials, and the surrounding courtyard was reforested. Later the rangers' apartments were given up.
During the regional and administrative reform in Saarland in 1974 , the Warndtwald with the former Warndthof was detached from belonging to Friedrichweiler and the Saarlouis district and transferred to the district of Ludweiler, City of Völklingen , in the Saarbrücken regional association .
There is now a restaurant on the site of or near the former Warndthof at the Warndtweiher.
