The name of the farm describes its location in or on a sieve ("soap") cut deep into the area . It was in the agriculturally particularly productive tithe range of the so-called Blomen- und Mitteleldorfzehnts . In the topographical survey of the Rhineland carried out at the beginning of the 19th century , the name was deep soap .

In Prussian times (from 1815) Diepenseifen remained part of the Honschaft, later the municipality of Elsaff. In 1816 and 1828 it was listed as a hamlet in censuses , but was again recorded as a courtyard in 1843 and included three farm buildings in addition to a residential building. Another residential building had been added by 1885 and the number of inhabitants increased significantly. The place has retained its former size to this day.
