history

Before 1825: State lease property

The place was first mentioned in documents around 1450 when the Teilgin u. Guert von der Zegenhart sue Peter Hungerkusen. In 1486 the mill there is also named: Eberhard Graf von Wittgenstein and his wife Margarethe lease hoff und mole in the tzegenhart to the Bergische Hereditary Marshal Bertram von Nesselrode and his wife Margarethe. Since that time the farm and mill have been leased by the respective sovereign. Initially by the Counts of Wittgenstein and the Counts of Sayn as Lords of Homburg, from 1609 to 1788 by the Count Palatine of Neuburg and Electors of the Palatinate as Dukes of Berg and for the last time in 1816 by the King of Prussia. The lease period was 6, 12 or 16 years, since 1741 24 years. In the 18th century the farm and mill were leased continuously to the Schenck family, and in 1815 to Wilhelm Christian Burghardt, who married into this miller family.

1825 to 1900: property of the Burghardt family

In 1825 the brothers Wilhelm and Anton Burghardt bought the Prussian domain Hof und Mühle zu Ziegenhard for 750 thalers. By dividing inheritance among their descendants and relatives (Schenck, Schmidt, Wirges), the farm was continually parceled out and at the end of the 19th century partially sold to families who had moved there (Steckelbach, Ottersbach). Since farmers in the surrounding area were no longer forced to have their grain ground in Ziegenhardt, as they were before 1806, the mill became increasingly meaningless in the 19th century. Wilhelm Burghardt was a watchmaker, his son set up a restaurant in the old tenant house, which is still there today on Brölstrasse.

During the construction of Germany's oldest steam-powered narrow-gauge railway between Hennef and Waldbröl, a stop on demand was set up in Ziegenhardt in 1870. The operation of this "Brölbähnchen" of the Rhein-Sieg-Eisenbahn was stopped in 1953.

  • Anton Burghardt (1838–1919) progenitor of Burghardt zu Waldbröl

  • August Burghardt (1869–1942), master blacksmith at Ziegenhardt

  • Christian Burghardt (1870–1945) from Ziegenhardt

20th century: trade and craft

Since the ownership of agricultural land was no longer sufficient to support a family, the residents were forced to practice a craft or to take up activities in foreign companies since the beginning of the 20th century. A blacksmith's shop, two grocery stores, a shoemaker's workshop, after 1950 a tractor and car dealership with a gas station and an electrical installation business were established in Ziegenhardt. Several men worked as track construction workers, conductors and bus drivers on the Rhein-Sieg Railway. Hannes Steckelbach and his son Gottfried were well known cattle dealers. The years 1935–1960 were particularly prosperous, first due to the economic activities of Reich Labor Minister Robert Ley on the neighboring Rottland estate , then due to several families who had fled the Anglo-American bombing raids on Cologne.

Catholic elementary school (1857–1967)

In 1857 the first classroom of the newly founded Catholic elementary school was set up in the parent company in Burghardt on Brölstrasse, and it was not until 1888 that a school building was built. In addition to Ziegenhardt, the school district included the towns of Bech, Pulvermühle, Ober- and Niedergeilenkausen, Propach, Neuenhähnen, Wippenkausen, Bladersbach, Niederhausen, Rossenbach, Homburgerhahn and Rottland. Often more than 50 children were taught in the single-class school, but it was not until 1957 that a modern extension was built. In the course of the dissolution of the so-called “dwarf schools”, the school in Ziegenhardt was also closed in 1967 and the building was privatized ten years later.

Catholic Church of St. Konrad von Parzham (since 1936)

Along with Brenzingen, Ziegenhardt was already considered a “refuge of Catholicism” in the otherwise almost completely Lutheran community of Waldbröl in the 18th century. In 1901, a wealthy Cologne widow bequeathed 6,000 marks and her land, which was mainly in Ziegenhardt, to the Catholic parish of Waldbröl, with the condition that they should be used in a later construction of a church in Ziegenhardt.

Thanks to the initiative of Pastor Küppers from Waldbröler and his church council, the church, consecrated to St. Konrad von Parzham , was completed in just eight months in 1936 . In the death note of Ziegenhardt master blacksmith August Burghardt from 1941 it says: “Since 1926 he has been a member of the church council. His main aim was to help ensure that the lower parish got a church, which he succeeded in 1936. The then built Konradkirche in Ziegenhardt was his pride and joy. ". In terms of church law, this “lower parish” includes Ziegenhardt, the places Bech, Bladersbach, Hillesmühle, Neuenhähnen, Niedergeilenkausen, Niederhausen, Obergeilenkausen, Pulvermühle, Rossenbach, Rottland and Segenborn.

Two of the three bells in the tower of the Ziegenhardt Church come from Silesia, the larger one from Marschwitz / Marsovice (cast by Jakob Getz in 1611), the smaller one from Neumarkt (1734 by Jacob Krampferd from Breslau). The third bell (from 1803) was the ship's bell of a German warship until 1916 and was donated by Wilhelm Weiper in 1936.

Church choir "Cäcilia"

The church choir, founded in the early 1940s, was joined in 1970 with the Waldbröler church choir “St. Cecilia “united. In addition to the school, the church and the Borromeo library (in the church), it was part of the cultural life of the place and the parish.

Annual highlight

The Catholic parish youth Christ König, Bonn-Holzlar has been spending their annual Whitsun tent camp in Ziegenhardt for many years.

The poet "WC Burghard" (1824–1909)

Wilhelm Christian Burghardt, born in Ziegenhardt in 1824, a son of the aforementioned Anton B., learned the profession of surveyor , which was very unusual for his living environment. Since he remained unmarried, he was able to devote himself intensively to writing poems and small prose pieces. He published his first volume "Poems" under a pseudonym, since he - besides moralizing poetry - openly acknowledged the revolution of 1848/49 . His other four publications (1853–1866) were made in Ziegenhardt, before he moved to his brother Anton in Waldbröl after the death of his father in 1872, where he ran a butcher's and restaurant that still exists today. He lived there until his death in 1909. His works appeared from 1853 under the author's name "WC Burghard".
