Brandroster is a district in the Refrath district of Bergisch Gladbach .

history

The place name Brandroster takes up the old settlement name An der Brandroster , which is recorded in the original cadastre in the area of ​​today's street. The late medieval fire grate was the successor to the original inn on the fire grate. This inn was demolished in the 19th century.

Between the 15th and 17th centuries, the settlement was expanded to include a second farm. In the early modern period , the settlement experienced a further expansion and developed into the village of Brandroster , which was named in the original cadastre as Corridor VI of the Refrath community.

The name Brandroster is a combination of the Middle High German words brant (= fire brand , burning log) and rost / roste (= rust, pyre, beams lying on rammed ground stakes as a base, embers). It is directly related to the local coal-burning industry. It is about the installation of a kiln, i.e. the regulated burning of logs that have been piled up in an orderly manner.

The Topographia Ducatus Montani by Erich Philipp Ploennies , Blatt Amt Porz , shows that the living space was categorized as a courtyard in 1715 and was designated as fire armor .

Carl Friedrich von Wiebeking names the court on his charter of the Duchy of Berg in 1789 as a fire rust . It emerges from it that Brandroster was part of the Refrath honor in the parish of Bensberg at that time .

Under the French administration between 1806 and 1813, the Porz office was dissolved and Brandroster was politically assigned to Mairie Bensberg in the canton of Bensberg . In 1816 the Prussians converted the Mairie to the mayor's office in Bensberg in the Mülheim am Rhein district .

The place is regularly recorded on the topographical survey of the Rhineland from 1824, on the Prussian first survey of 1840 and from the Prussian new survey of 1892 on measuring table sheets as a fire rust or without a name.

Due to the Cologne Act , the city of Bensberg was merged with Bergisch Gladbach to form the city of Bergisch Gladbach with effect from January 1, 1975. Fire rust also became part of Bergisch Gladbach.
