history

The place was first mentioned in a document in the 13th century as a blind ape . The defining word for the blind is derived from the fact that a watercourse that arises at the location seeps away again on a meadow before it flows into the Naafbach, i.e. it drains blindly . The brook name Naaf itself, called de Nafe in the 13th century , called the Nave in 1555 , is a river name word of Indo-European origin, the root of which cannot be traced in German . The meaning seems to be neutral flow and is related to the Greek nao (= flow ), Latin nato (= swimme ) , navis (= ship ).

The Topographia Ducatus Montani by Erich Philipp Ploennies , Blatt Amt Steinbach , shows that the residential area had four farms as early as 1715, which are labeled as Pliegenaaf . Carl Friedrich von Wiebeking names the court on his charter of the Duchy of Berg in 1789 as Bliedenaaf . It shows that the place was part of the Honschaft Burg in the parish of Overath at that time .

The place is recorded on the topographical survey of the Rhineland from 1817 as a blind stove . The Prussian first recording from 1845 shows the residential area under the name Blindenas . From the Prussian new admission of 1892, the place is regularly recorded on the measuring table as Blindenaaf .

In 1822, 34 people lived in the place categorized as Hof und Mühle (meaning the Blindenaafer Mühle), which after the collapse of the Napoleonic administration and its replacement, belonged to the Overath mayor in the Mülheim am Rhein district and was then called the Blindenofen . For the year 1830 a total of 40 inhabitants are given for the place called Blindenofen , which is called a farm with a mill . The Blindenaf , which was also categorized as a farm and mill according to the survey of the government district of Cologne in 1845 , had eleven residential buildings with 68 inhabitants at that time, all of them Catholic denominations. The Blindenaafer mill was also added to the place. The local and Gutbezirksstatistik the Rhine Province leads Blindenaaf alone in 1871 with 16 houses and 73 on population.
