history

The first petrol bus "Landauer"

Deuz was first mentioned in a document as "Duce" on April 23, 1290. A mill at Deuz has been mentioned regularly in records since 1300. The Deuzer Simultanschule was mentioned as early as 1690 and was also used as a chapel for a long time. It was closed in 1911.

Due to its favorable location, Deuz became the first industrial community of the former Netphen office . The relocation of the Irle roller foundry from Kaan-Marienborn to Deuz in 1848 is to be regarded as a birth act. The foundry was built on the site of an old non-ferrous metal smelter. Over the years, other companies have settled in Deuz.

The world's first motorized bus drove from Deuz to Weidenau in 1895 ; it was financed by a Deuz company and delivered to the Netphener bus company in March 1895 by Benz & Cie . In 1906 the Kleinbahn Weidenau – Deuz was opened.

The Protestant church was built around 1910. The establishment of a telephone exchange in Deuz dates from November 21, 1929. Until the local reorganization , the place belonged to the office of Netphen . On January 1, 1969, the community of Deuz was dissolved and incorporated into the new large community of Netphen. In 2005 the old Deuz outdoor pool was reopened as a natural outdoor pool .
