Gelsenkirchen - Haus Leithe 05
The nobility seat was the headquarters of the knights of Leithe whose possession in the hamlet Leithe, under it the big statute labour court magistrate Herveling, from the abbey Deutz went to fief. Not far from the statute labour court the gender established in the 13th/14th century her nobility seat free of dependence which was till 1438, to the time of the extinction of the gender in male line, residence of the family (in 1366 first expressly occupied). The members had acquired to themselves special respect as castle people of shining stone and castle Mark near Hamm in the service of the countsvon der Mark in whose suite they are to be found since the 13th century.
Between 1439 and 1749 house Leithe was not any more a residence of a nobility family, but was administered by treasurer by order of the respective owners. This explains, why the arrangement resembles today rather an agriculturally used manor and only low news exists to the late-medieval / early-modern construction history.
In 1901 house Leithe is sold to the court-appointed expert Wilhelm Behmer. Behmers widow sells the possession in 1914 with a total of 60 mornings to country to the city of Gelsenkirchen. It is reported that the Gräften led up to 1890 still water which seeped, however, later by the effects of the mining.
A not unsubstantial agricultural area under cultivation which is worked on till this day still by the current tenant - which farmer Berger - always belonged to the house Leithe. With Theodor Berger the last shoot of the farm family leaves at the end of 2010 the property. to the house Leithe also belonged Bokermühle which was torn off in the first half of the 20th century.
