Etymology and history

The name Brink is derived from the settlement on a small elevation called Brink .

The Brink farm was first mentioned in a document in 1508 and 1521 as uff deme Brincke in an appraisal list of the Hardenberg rule . In 1703 the membership of the Hardenberg farmers' union Oberste Siebeneick is documented.

In the 19th century, Brink belonged to the Obensiebeneick farmers' community and the Dönberg parish in the Hardenberg mayor's office , which was renamed Neviges in 1935 . From 1816 to 1861 it belonged to the Elberfeld district and from 1861 to the old Mettmann district .

The place is marked on the municipality Charte of the Parzellar cadastre of the Mayor's Hardenberg from 1815/16 as zur Brink . In the municipality lexicon for the Rhineland province from 1888, a house with five residents is given.

With the municipal reform of 1929, the eastern part of Obensiebeneick was split off around Brink and incorporated into the newly founded city of Wuppertal together with southern Dönberger localities, the rest of Obensiebeneick initially remained with Neviges. Due to the regional reform of North Rhine-Westphalia , Neviges came to the city of Velbert at the beginning of 1975 and the rest of Obensiebeneick was also incorporated into Wuppertal.
