history

Beeckerheide, which used to belong to the parish of Beeck, was sparsely populated until long after the Second World War . The Beeckerwald residential area was created in the early 1970s and developed into the most populous residential area in the city of Wegberg. The residents founded an association, the "Wohngemeinschaft Beeckerwald eV", which sees its task in maintaining tradition and neighborhoods. Activities include building a club house in the early 1990s and in 2004 the inauguration of the “Christian Sign” at the corner of Kiefernweg and Tannenweg, where a Thanksgiving service takes place every October.
