Zwischen zwei Rittergütern: eine hochmittelalterliche Hofstelle in Mönchengladbach-Wanlo

This volume publishes the excavation report on a 10th to 13th century farmstead near Mönchengladbach-Wanlo in the administrative district of Düsseldorf. The excavation revealed a section of a typical of typical High Medieval rural settlement with loosely scattered structures in the form of ground-level post buildings and with one type of building set into the ground, accompanied by pits, two wells and a type of oven common in the Rhineland. The farmstead area, enclosed by ditches, was located on an old pathway east of the upper Niers, about halfway between the former knights' residences in Wanlo and Keyenberg to the south.
The site was discovered during the planned construction of the new L354n state road between Wanlo and Erkelenz-Kahlhausen in the course of the opencast mining at Garzweiler. RWE Power AG commissioned the company Archaeonet in Bonn to carry out the project in compliance with the measures of the monument protection authorities.

Edith Krämer (born 1963) studied Classical Archaeology, Art History and Ancient History at the Universities of Bonn and Hamburg and completed her studies with a Master's degree and subsequent doctorate. After graduating and alongside her short excursions into Classical Archaeology, for example as a staff member at the sculptures' catalogue of the Antikensammlungen Berlin, she worked as an editor and was particularly involved in projects for archaeological companies. In addition, she accompanied numerous archaeological research projects in the Rhineland with a focus on archaeological prospection.
