In the Middle Ages, Bauer was at the northernmost point of the parish of Lüttringhausen in the Bergisches Amt Beyenburg on the border with the Amt Elberfeld .

Baur belonged to the late Middle Ages and early modern period to Honschaft Erbschloe , but was not the bergischen dukes or their Beyenburger bailiff dutiable, but was subject to a tax and special leave by Duke Adolf of Juelich-Berg the monastery stone house in Beyenburg. Baur probably had its own chapel as a monastery property . This is accepted in the neighboring village of Kapellen .

The Elberfeld line of the Bergische Landwehr ran east and south of Baur in the late Middle Ages . The Baurer turnpike in the Landwehr is documented from documents from the 18th century , so that one can assume that the road through Baur is more important. In 1710 three houses were counted in the place called aufm Bawer .

On the Topographia Ducatus Montani by Erich Philipp Ploennies from 1715, the two farms are listed as Buer and S.Buer . On the topographical survey of the Rhineland from 1824, the places are referred to as Aufm Bauer . Schulten Bauer recorded. On the Prussian first recording from 1843, both are recorded as Baur .

In 1832 Baur belonged to the Holthauser Rotte in the rural outskirts of the city of Ronsdorf . The place, categorized as a hamlet according to the statistics and topography of the Düsseldorf administrative district , had six residential buildings and four agricultural buildings at that time. At that time 70 people lived in the place, seven Catholic and 63 Protestant faith. In the municipality lexicon for the province of Rhineland from 1888, five houses with 75 inhabitants are given.
