The place name -brühl occurs several times in Solingen. The word denotes a damp, bushy valley . In the case of Bergerbrühl, this term refers to the location of the court in the Nümmener Bachtal.

history

Bergerbrühl was built in the first half of the 19th century on the provincial road Essen – Solingen from Vohwinkel via Gräfrath to Solingen, later Bundesstraße 224, and at the time belonged to the mayor's office of Gräfrath . In the topographical survey of the Rhineland from 1824, the place is not yet recorded, but on the Prussian first survey of 1844. There the residential area is named Bergerbröl .

The place is listed in the official list of residential places of the administrative district of Düsseldorf , published in the 1850 year of the official gazette of the government of Düsseldorf , as an inn . The municipality and estate district statistics of the Rhine Province list the place in 1871 with six houses and 44 inhabitants. In the municipality lexicon for the province of Rhineland in 1885 seven houses with 64 inhabitants are given. In 1895 the district had nine houses with 70 inhabitants, in 1905 twelve houses and 126 inhabitants are given.

In 1887 the Solingen – Wuppertal-Vohwinkel railway line was laid past the site . With the town union of Groß-Solingen in 1929, Bergerbrühl became a district of Solingen.

After the railway line was closed, the bridge over Wuppertaler Straße on Bergerbrühl was also torn down. In the final phase of the conversion of the former railway line to a cycle path in the mid-2000s, a new bridge was therefore necessary to cross the road. The light metal bridge financed with donations was finally inaugurated in August 2007.
