history

Weuste was first mentioned on May 28, 1356, when the knight Heidenrich and his brother Diderich von Plettenberg sold the " Hof zu der Weuste ". In addition to the estate, there was also a hammer mill in Weuste ( Weuster Hammer ) from the middle of the 15th century , operated by Hinrich Segener , a citizen of Attendorn . In 1460 he sold the " Hof to der Woisten und den Hammer " with all its accessories to Hinrich the hammer smith . The owners from the end of 1479 were the Gerd Hamerschmidt family . In 1537 Peter vor der Parten , knife maker in Attendorn, sold the 6th part to Jurgen Hammersmyt to the house, farm and hammer, called dey Wouste bei Eichen .

Politically, Weuste formerly belonged to the Waldenburg office and in the Gogericht and parish Attendorn to the peasantry Albringhausen , which also belonged to surrounding places such as Eichen , Wamge , Klinke and others. In the treasury register of 1543, Jorgen Hamerschmidt is named in the Burschaff Ailberinghausen with 26 taxpayers with a fee of 2 gold guilders . In the registry of 1565 Jurgen Hamerschmit is taxed at 2½ gold guilders. In Weuste, the hammer mill (piece hammer with 1 fire) was operated by Engelhard zu Olpe on the Lister around 1800 . In the 1840s, F. Schnütgen from Altenweuste and F. Hundt from Olpe were involved until the hammer mill ceased operations around 1861. It was made in 1855 with 2 workers 657 Ztr. Bar iron at 3285 Taler. Then Josef Hundt jun. a puddle furnace , but sold the factory at the end of the 1880s to Heinrich Bock, who ran a fork factory there with water and steam power.

In the 17th century the estate on the Weuste belonged to the Count Kaspar Theodor Burghoff; managed by Heinemann Schnütgen, then by his son Caspar. From the middle of the 18th century, the estate had several owners. Half of it belonged to the Ewig monastery , a quarter to the Attendorn judge Kaspar Theodor Gertmann and the last quarter first to a Friedrich Christiani and later to the Bresser family in Attendorn. Caspar Diderich Schnütgen was the tenant of the estate from 1712. Until the 1830s, the family was tenants on the farm, until Wilhelm Schnütgen replaced all the taxes on the farm and the farm passed into his possession. In 1843 the brothers Franz and Josef Schnütgen divided the estate into "Alte Weuste" and "Neue Weuste". The "Alte Weuste" location, east of Eichen in the Listertal, had to be relocated due to the construction of the Lister dam (1909–1912), approx. 400 m to the east, in front of the dam wall. Later when the Biggetalsperre was built (1956–1965) it was abandoned. The “Neue Weuste” farm to the west of Klinke also had to give way to the construction of the Biggetalsperre, and the newly built Weuste, which is still inhabited by the Schnütgen family, was built above the Lister dam.

In 1813 Franz Napoleon Alexander Schnütgen was born in Weuste and later moved to Steele . His son, the later cathedral capitular Prof. Dr. Alexander Schnütgen (1843–1918), well-known art collector and founder of the Schnütgen Museum in Cologne , always felt very closely connected with his father's home. He often stayed here on vacation. He later had churches built in Lichtringhausen , Listernohl , Listerscheid and Ennest . The cathedral capitular and honorary citizen of Cologne and Attendorn-Land died on November 24, 1918 in his father's parents' house in Weuste. He found his final resting place in a mausoleum in the cemetery in Listernohl. Before the Biggetal was flooded , the remains were reburied in the Neu-Listernohl cemetery chapel .

The address book from 1929 in Weusterhammer lists the names "Bock (3), Gelhaus, Klein, Kühr, Pfeiffer (2), Platzmann (2) and Zeppenfeld (2)".
