Etymology and history

On the topographical survey of the Rhineland from 1824 the place is marked with lettering and on the Prussian first survey from 1843 it is not marked. Past Blaffertsberg, the road from Ronsdorf to Lüttringhausen was laid out from 1792 to 1794 , today's Kreisstraße 4 ( Lüttringhauser Straße ).

In 1832 Blaffertsberg belonged to the Boxberger Rotte in the rural outskirts of the city of Ronsdorf . The place, which was categorized as individual houses according to the statistics and topography of the Düsseldorf administrative district , had two residential buildings and an agricultural building at the time. At that time 19 residents lived in the place, two Catholic and 18 Protestant faith. In the municipality lexicon for the province of Rhineland from 1888 seven houses with 90 inhabitants are given.

The connecting road ran through Blaffertsberg from Ronsdorf via Kratzkopf , Im Büschgen , Blaffertsberg and Klausen to Lüttringhausen , today's Lüttringhauser Straße . It was expanded in the 1740s as part of the Werden - Elberfeld - Ronsdorf - Lüttringhausen - Lennep road connection.

On May 15, 1900, individual houses on Blaffertsberg came from Lüttringhausen to Ronsdorf as part of a territorial exchange.

At the beginning of the 20th century, the Carl Lippold KG fireworks factory was founded near Blaffertsberg and manufactured fireworks until 1914. It was followed by the Moog pyrotechnic factory , which relocated from Blaffertsberg to Flügel in 1923. In 1938, 1939/41 and 1949/50, the Reinshagen factory settlement of the company Kabelwerke Reinshagen was built on the site of the former fireworks factory . One of the streets in the settlement that leads to the location was renamed Blaffertsberg in 1935 (previously Oststraße ). Today's Lüttringhauser Strasse from the center of Ronsdorf to the location was called Blaffertsberger Strasse until 1935 .
