Etymology and history

In the local dialect, the place was also called Om Hagen .

In the 19th century Auf'm Hagen belonged to the outlying villages of the farmers and the parish Dönberg in the mayor's office 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 not shown on the topographical survey of the Rhineland from 1824. On the Prussian first recording from 1843 the place is marked as unlabeled, on the Wuppertal city map from 1930 as Hagen .

In the municipality lexicon for the Rhineland province from 1888, a house with seven inhabitants is given.

South of Auf'm Hagen ran a coal route from Sprockhövel to Elberfeld , on which hard 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 industrial heart of the region. A ravine of the coal path has been preserved in the area at Auf'm Hagen .

In the village there was the excursion restaurant Haus Funccius . The guests could swim in the pond and ride on it with gondolas .

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 Auf'm Hagen. The city boundary between Wuppertal and Neviges ran north of Auf'm Hagen until 1975, to the south of that from Neviges to Elberfeld until 1929 and to the east that to Barmen . Due to the regional reform of North Rhine-Westphalia , Neviges came to the city of Velbert at the beginning of 1975 and the rest of Dönberg was also incorporated into Wuppertal. As a result, Auf'm Hagen lost its border position.
