Etymology and history

House in the local area (Uellendahler Straße 252)

The name can be either a previously frequently used Rodungsart (chopping or Haurodung) or a form of Hagen close.

On the topographia Ducatus Montani by Erich Philipp Ploennies from 1715, the hook is recorded as a Hacken . In the 19th century, Am Haken belonged to the Mirker Rotte of the Lord Mayor of Elberfeld . The place is on the topographic recording of the Rhineland in 1824 as a hook and on the Prussian Uraufnahme of 1843 as hacking located.

No inhabitants are given for 1815/16. According to the statistics and topography of the Düsseldorf administrative district in 1832 , the place, which was categorized as an arable property and a craftsman's apartment, was called on the hook and at that time had three residential buildings and four agricultural buildings. At that time, 23 residents lived in the village, including one Catholic and 22 Protestant.

The road from Elberfeld via Hatzfeld and Schmiedestraße to Sprockhövel and Witten was built in 1825 , which is now Uellendahler Straße
