This is the bithplace of Franz Anton (1819), John (1825), Josephina (1828) and Daniel Grobbel (1836). Their father, Johannes Röttger Grobbel, moved here from Obringhausen when he married M.C. Eickhoff gt. Spott in 1815. This was the birthplace of all of their children; the 3 sons listed above emigrated to the U.S.A. around 1850. In the late 1950's, the Grobbel-Meister Hof was combined with an adjoining house (at the left edge of the picture) and converted into the Hotel Henneman. The Sparkasse (a savings bank) also has a local branch office situated in the corner of the structure (photo taken on 22 April 2000).
