history

The place was on a coal road running over the height, which is already recorded on the Topographia Ducatus Montani by Erich Philipp Ploennies from 1715. On the topographical survey of the Rhineland from 1824, a place is labeled with Düsseler Höh , on the Prussian first survey from 1843 the place is unlabeled. From the 1930s, the area from the west of today's state road 74 (here in the area of Wiedener Straße ) was built on and the place name Düsselerhöhe was adopted for the settlement, which then dominated. The streets of Jammerhörnchen, An der Piep, Steinberger Weg, An der Bük, Zum Großen Busch and Düsseler Höhe belong to the settlement .

Until 1974, the area around the church height belonged to Wülfrath , district Unterdüssel . The street with the name Düsseler Höhe was first named on November 16, 1953 (the source also includes the date February 28, 1956).
