The place is located in the Märkisches Kreis directly on the border with the village ofschlag in the city of Wipperfürth in the Oberbergischer Kreis . This is also where the border between the Rhineland and Westphalia runs , which comes from the historical territorial border between the Grafschaft Mark and the Duchy of Berg .

The center of Halver is about three kilometers northeast, that of the neighboring town of Wipperfürth is about eight kilometers southwest. The stop is at a height of 400 meters above sea ​​level .

The interregional cycle route Radroute Wasserquintett , which was created as part of the Regionale 2010 , runs through the village .

Etymology and history

The attack was first mentioned in 1630, but the time of origin of the settlement is assumed to be between 1500 and 1600. Thus, attack is one of the younger settlements in Halver. The stop is a split from the Lausberge court .

An old road ran from Cologne via Wipperfürth , Halver, Lüdenscheid , Werdohl and Arnsberg to Soest past the stop , an important early medieval (according to other views already prehistoric ) trade , pilgrimage and military route . Another prehistoric old road via Radevormwald to Schwelm , running over today's state road L284 and district road K3, which was used as an iron and coal road, crossed the Heerweg at stop.

In the early modern times there was a customs post with a barrier at the border. The place owes its name to this fact. On old maps it appears as “Tollenschlag” (= tariff estimate / customs office with turnpike).

In 1818 eight residents lived in the village. According to the location and distance table of the government district of Arnsberg , the place was categorized as a farm and in 1838 had a population of 30, all of whom were Protestant. At that time the place belonged to the Lausberg farmers within the mayor's office of Halver and owned two houses, two factories or mills and two agricultural buildings.

The municipality encyclopedia for the province of Westphalia from 1887 gives a number of 36 inhabitants who lived in three houses.

In the 20th century ,schlag owned a separation station on the Wuppertal Railway . From there the railway line fromschlag to Wipperfürth branched off to the Wippertalbahn . The connection to Radevormwald was the first to be opened on June 30, 1910; a little later, further partial commissioning followed. The section from Wipperfürth to stop was closed in 1960, on the section Radevormwald to stop to Oberbrügge passenger traffic was stopped in 1964 and freight traffic in 1968. The line was dismantled from 1972 to 1974.
