history

Dienstühlen was first mentioned in a document in 1513, but the time of origin of the settlement is assumed to be between 1300 and 1400 following the second medieval clearing period.

In 1818 four residents lived in the village. 1838 belonged to service chairs of the Eickhöfer peasantry within the mayor's office Halver . The place categorized as Kotten according to the place and distance table of the government district Arnsberg had a house at that time. At that time, twelve people lived in the village, all of whom were Protestant.

The community encyclopedia for the province of Westphalia from 1887 gives a number of twelve residents who lived in a residential building.

At Dienstühlen, a presumably prehistoric old road from Schwelm via Radevormwald to Wegerhof ran along the route of today's federal road 229 and district road 3 , which was used as an iron and coal road. This was crossed by another important old road from Wipperfürth to Breckerfeld .

On June 30, 1910, the neighboring Schwenke was connected to the railway network with the opening of the Wuppertal Railway. At Dienstühlen, Schwenke station was on the branch line running from Wuppertal-Oberbarmen or Remscheid-Lennep via Krebsöge and Radevormwald, Schwenke and Halver to Oberbrügge . The railway line, which had never been of economic importance, was closed for passenger traffic on May 30, 1964. A few years later, freight traffic was also discontinued and the line was finally dismantled.
