The city of Hattingen is a town in the district of Ennepe-Ruhr-Kreis in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. It is situated on the southern edge of the Ruhr area and has a historic downtown with Fachwerk houses (timber-framed buildings) from the 14th to 16th century.
At the end of the 19th century, Hattingen was one of the most important steel centres in Europe. The steel industry has left its mark on the city and is still closely connected to the community.
In the municipal election, the conservative citizen group "Hattinger Bürgerpartei" wins with 51 % of the votes and becomes the dominant force in the city council. Dr. Dagmar Goch is elected as the first female city mayor of Hattingen and manages to beat Dr. Frank Burbulla in a run-off election.
The church of the Holy Cross in Hattingen is rebuilt. The famous junior-band Nurso from the city participates in the Bravo-Supershow and wins the title of best school band in Germany. In the steel-crisis, the companies Monninghoff/Gottwald and Henrichshutte are forced to lay off 4000 employees. The real-estate business LEG acquires the free spaces of the Henrichshutte and transforms it into a nature and business park. Modern factories and businesses settle in Hattingen and the city overcomes the demanding structural change.
During the war, Hattingen is bombed by the Allies 1292 times. The jewish inhabitants of the ghetto at the bridge Ruhrbrucke are deported to concentration camps such as Theresienstadt and Zamosc. In the so called "Reichskristallnacht" (Crystal Night) the Nazis burn down the synagogue at Bahnhofstrasse and scavenge jewish homes.
Count Engelbert von der Mark grants "Freiheitsrechte" (a lower form of municipal law) to the city of Hattingen, and the communities of Bredenscheid-Stuter, Niederelfringhausen, Oberelfringhausen, Oberstuter and Winz become part of it. The city of Hattingen is fortified with stone walls, defensive towers and five city gates. The trade guilds of Hattingen, especially the drapers, gain reputation even in distant regions.Steuererkl盲rung Hattingen
