Etymology and history

Cluse is a derivative of Klause, derived as a loan word from the Latin claudere "to close". In the Middle Ages, the farm was located on the Heerweg Cologne – Dortmund , an important medieval trade, pilgrimage and military route between the Rhine and Westphalia . The route is now used by the state road 411.

In the Middle Ages, Cluse belonged to the Lüttringhausen parish of the Beyenburg office . On the other side of the state road in the parcel " Im Galgenfeld " was the execution site of the office . Travelers arriving on Altstrasse from the Bornefeld Office to the Beyenburg Office were confronted with the bodies of the executed criminals as a warning directly at the office border. The whereabouts of a corpse over a period of nine years is documented from 1597. In 1715 the living space on the Topographia Ducatus Montani is referred to as " d Clus ".

19 inhabitants lived in the village in 1815/16. In 1832, Cluse was still part of the Garschagen Honschaft, which belonged to the mayor's office in Lüttringhausen . Which according to the statistics and topography of the district of Dusseldorf as Ackergut designated place was at that time Kluse called and had at that time three houses and two farm buildings. At that time there were 20 people living in the village, four of whom were Catholic and 16 were Protestant.
