history

The Diepenbroich farm was first mentioned in 1384 as de Depenbroek . The place name is a -bruch -name, meaning a boggy, swampy place. The qualifying expression Diepen is deep , Diepenbroich therefore means deeper quagmire .

The name is probably derived from the location of the farm in the valley floor of the Diepenbroich brook .

The Topographia Ducatus Montani by Erich Philipp Ploennies , Blatt Amt Steinbach , shows that the residential area had a courtyard as early as 1715, which is labeled as Diepenbrück . The place is marked there with the symbol of a Freihof . Carl Friedrich von Wiebeking names the court on his charter of the Duchy of Berg in 1789 as Diepenbroch . From it it emerges that the place was part of the Honschaft Balken in the parish of Overath at that time .

The place is recorded on the topographical survey of the Rhineland from 1817 as Diepenbroich . The Prussian first recording from 1845 shows the residential area under the name Tiebenbruch . From the Prussian new admission of 1892, the place is regularly recorded as Diepenbroich on measuring table sheets .

In 1822 eight people lived in the place, which was categorized as a lease and after the collapse of the Napoleonic administration and its replacement, it belonged to the Overath mayor's office in the Mülheim am Rhein district . For the year 1830 nine inhabitants are given for the place called Diepenbroich . The place, which was categorized as a courtyard in 1845 according to the overview of the government district of Cologne , had a residential building with eight residents at that time, all of whom were Catholic. The municipal and Gutbezirksstatistik the Rhine Province leads Diepenbroich 1871 with a dwelling house and four residents. In the municipality lexicon for the Rhineland province from 1888, a house with ten residents is given for Diepenbroich . In 1895 the place had a house with 13 inhabitants, in 1905 one house and ten inhabitants are given.

From the beginning of the 1970s, the federal highway 4 was laid 100 meters north of the place . The place existed until the 1970s when the buildings were demolished. With the development of the Diepenbroich industrial estate, the original settlement area of ​​the residential area was built over with commercial operations in the 2000s. Today only the street and commercial area name Diepenbroich reminds of the residential area.
