history

In the 19th century, Am Neuen Haus (still listed here as Hoffmann) belonged to the outlying villages of the farmers and the parish Dönberg in the mayor's office of Hardenberg , which was renamed Neviges in 1935 . From 1816 to 1861 it belonged to the Elberfeld district and from 1861 to the old Mettmann district .

The place is recorded on the Prussian first recording from 1843 as Neuenhaus , on the Wuppertal city map from 1930, however, again as Hoffmann .

In the municipality lexicon for the Rhineland province of 1888, Hoffmann is given a house with 17 residents.

To the south of Am Neuen Haus ran a coal route from Sprockhövel to Elberfeld , on which coal was transported from the mines in the southern Ruhr area to the factories in Wuppertal in the late 18th century and in the first half of the 19th century , which was industrial at that time Was the heart of the region.

With the municipal reform of 1929, the southern part of Dönberg was split off from Neviges and incorporated into the newly founded city of Wuppertal with other Neviges villages outside Dönberg, including Am Neuen Haus. The city boundary between Wuppertal and Neviges ran to the north of Am Neuen Haus until 1975, and to the south of it ran from Neviges to Elberfeld until 1929. As a result of the regional reform of North Rhine-Westphalia , Neviges came to the city of Velbert at the beginning of 1975 and the rest of the Dönberg was also incorporated into Wuppertal. As a result, Am Neuen Haus lost its border location.
