history

According to Hodenberg's document book, there is a mention of a watermill near Vörie as early as 1274. It is mentioned as "wismolen in Vordie". The name means either "meadow mill" or "wheat mill". The Kloster Wennigsen acquired the Vismole from the monastery Herse at Paderborn . The name is supposed to indicate that wheat was ground in the mill . But that was unlikely for the area and at this time. At that time, rye , oats and barley were the main crops there.

A canoness from the von Spole family in Holtensen signed the mill and four Hufen land at Lemmie the monastery. In 1568 it belonged to Jobst and Heinrich von Lenthe. She stayed with this family until 1852. After it was destroyed in the Thirty Years' War , the mill was rebuilt in 1646. From 1646 to the water mill was operated by members of the Jürgens family. Ernst Meyer Müller was in Vörie from 1810 to 1853.

At the beginning of the 19th century, the places Vörie, Weetzen , Linderte , Ihme and Roloven belonged to the grinding district . The miller Meyer paid 50 thaler hereditary interest to the owner of Lenthe every year . The mill produced rye flour, pearl barley and oil . The oil grinding process was converted to process wheat in 1840. At the meeting of the trade association for the Kingdom of Hanover in 1847, Meyer exhibited the model of a two-speed water mill.

The Vörier Müller from 1853 on were Klußmann, Winkenwerder, Mävers and Heinrich Lindemann.

Lindemann was Vöries' last miller since 1895. He installed a turbine . Mill operations were stopped around 1940. Since there was no longer a tenant, the mill was shut down in 1957, or according to another representation in 1960.

description

The undershot mill was one of four water mills on the Ihme . Downstream followed the Bettenser mill , Kückenmühle and Mordtmühle near Ricklingen .

At Vörie, the Ihme is called Landwehr . Within the principality of Calenberg and later the Kingdom of Hanover , this was the border between the offices of Koldingen and Calenberg .

The listed mill building at Landwehrstrasse 16 in Vörie was built in 1870 and around 1900. The mill main building was built in the high basement of sandstone in two traufparallelen water diffusers with basket arch vaulted ceiling passes under the water of the Landwehr. The building, made of red bricks , has three floors. The facades are by rotating projectile and cornice with dentil by Eck cornices and windows with segmental arches divided. A similarly designed two-storey residential building is attached to the south side of the main building. The extensions on the north side of the main building are single-storey brick buildings.

Reuse

Main building with water passages

As a measure for the near-natural remodeling of the Ihme and for flood protection , which was awarded by the Lower Saxony Ministry of the Environment , the water in the area of ​​Vörie and the watermill was relocated over a length of 750 m in a newly dredged stream bed. The new floodlight replaces the mill jam that was artificially created over 200 years ago to use the height difference . The old watercourse should only carry water during floods. By the by the European Union , the state of Lower Saxony, Hannover Region, the Consumer Association of Medium leash, the city Ronnenberg and some farmers funded, 240,000-euro water construction project would, for example, salmon is a hike from the North Sea to the Deister foothills possible.

According to the result of the public participation in the Ronnenberg 2030 urban development concept, the watermill building is to be preserved and used again.
