history
Oils
Ölsen was first mentioned on June 13, 1292 in a document from the Marienstatt monastery . In the Middle Ages , the Irserbach separated the county of Sayn and the Duchy of Berg as a border river . The place Ölsen was once home to the knights of those of Udolfshusyn occupied on 13 June 1292 as the document from the monastery Marienstatt. (Then Udilshusen) A Rokil of Ölsen was 1359 alderman in Altenkirchen. A Heinrich von Ölsen was also a judge there from 1430 .
Until the middle of the 17th century Ölsen belonged to the county of Sayn . After the introduction of the Reformation in the county of Sayn, the inhabitants were first Lutheran and later reformed .
From 1810, at the time of the Nassau government, a Schulze had its seat in Ölsen. For centuries, charcoal was transported through the Ölsen district to the Hammer Hütten, in the Siegerland and down the Rhine to Holland .
Friedenthal
The first house in Friedenthal was that of the Kirchner family, who in 1878 built the first building, a forge, across from Mittelirsen in the area of the community of Ölsen. They called the place Friedenthal - probably because of its remote location . After the expansion of the Irsetalstraße from Birnbach to Irsermühle in 1887–1892, another family settled in the hamlet. A third residential building was built in 1914/1915. At that time, the students had to attend school in Birkenbeul ; it was not until 1915 that they could be assigned to the nearby school location of Kocherscheid in the Rhein-Sieg district . Today's residents are more economically and culturally oriented towards the neighboring Windecker Ländchen .
