Life

Brüggenwirth's father bought the Felderhof near Kierspe in 1902. The widely ramified courtyard was designed in later years by the Brüggenwirth family by buying and exchanging land to form a closed whole that comprised 150 acres of cultivated land. After his training and his time as a soldier, Wilhelm Brüggenwirth returned to the farm in Kierspe in 1919. As a co-founder of the FDP local association in Kierspe, Wilhelm Brüggenwirth was committed to the liberal idea until the end of his life.

From 1946 to 1969 Brüggenwirth was a member of the district council of the former Altena district and was district administrator from March 29, 1963 to September 27, 1964. In addition, he was a member of the district committee, the construction and pathway committee, the committee for structural measures of the district hospital, the committee for civil defense matters and the district hunting council. From 1948 Wilhelm Brüggenwirth was chairman of the agricultural district association and at the same time district farmer . The former district administrator was the bearer of the Altena Ring of Honor .

At the end of the 1950s, the Felderhof was sold piece by piece to the city of Kierspe. In addition to a large residential area, the Kierspe comprehensive school was built in the 1960s. The expansion of the school in the early 1970s then required the last large areas of the courtyard.
