history

It is generally assumed that the name Dilldorf comes from the village on the Deile . The origin of the part of the name Deil (in Deilbach , Deiler Mühle, Deilmannshof, Deile - the last two objects have always belonged to the Byfang district) is not certain. The old high German didelaa (dillen, didelen, diddeln = to be restless, to flow restlessly) indicates a restless body of water.

Dilldopp used to be the name for a toy spinning top , but also for a very restless child. The river Dill, like the Deilbach, has a restless course with many turns - this could have a common origin of the name. Furthermore, the names Thidelda, Tithelda and Didele for the Deilbach can be found in old documents. But also T eilbach comes into consideration, as the stream roughly marked the border between Saxony and Franconia and later between the Prussian county of Mark and the Duchy of Berg. Later the Deilbach separated the Rhineland from Westphalia.

The early settlements in the Deilbach valley may have moved people to settle nearby and lay the foundation for the village of Dilldorf. Because there was work on the Deilbach: Deilmannshof, Deiler Mühle, Kupferhammer and Eisenhammer until the beginning of the industrial age; then mining and brickworks, numerous quarries, railroad, phoenix hut, cement factory.

Dilldorf (the village on the Deile = Deilbach) and the farmers belonged to the Bergisch dominion of Hardenberg until 1806 . The Dilldorf farmers were, however, dependent on the Werden Abbey and were largely Catholic. After the Grand Duchy of Berg was dissolved, Dilldorf became part of the Hardenberg mayor .

The statistics and topography of the Düsseldorf administrative district from 1832 include the following subordinate localities and residential areas for Dilldorf : Zu Wiese, Am Rathgeber, Am Prienen, Zu Bruckhaus.

According to the municipality encyclopedia for the Rhineland province of 1888, 298 people lived in the district of Dilldorf in the municipality of Hardenberg in 22 houses, which are located in the districts of Asbeckswiese, Backhaus, machine building No. I, machine building No. II, Mühlenberg, Priemenbackes, Priemenhäuschen, Priemes, Rathgeber , Temple and meadow bakery.

In addition to the main town, the following villages and places of residence belonged to the peasantry in 1888 : Am Knüppel, Bruckes, Bruckeskothen, Bückenhäuschen, Fürkothen, Kupferbank, Herbeckesberg, Kämchen, Kukuk, Lerth, Meiersberg, Röckschen, Priemenberg, Sohl, Timpen, Tücking and Unterm Feld. Another 300 people lived there in 27 houses. On April 1, 1899 Dill village and parts of were Voßnackens from the municipality of Hardenberg Mettmann in the community Kupferdreh the district food reclassified.

In 1801, the people of Dilldorf were given permission to build their own chapel at the Rathgeberhof, and from 1814 also the associated cemetery. During this time, the first Catholic school was built at the Rathgeberhof. Since 1801 the official instruction, approved by the abbot of Werden, had taken place in the chapel. Before that, around 1780, Dilldorf children were taught in the outbuilding of a farm. The Protestant children attended the Vossnacker School , which was founded in 1789 and is located in the neighboring rural community of Vossnacken . In 1880 a Protestant elementary school and a school district in Dilldorf were established in Priemberg. The last school in Dilldorf was built on Oslenderstraße and started operating as a primary school in 1935. In 1968 it became a municipal community elementary school and finally closed in 2010.

coat of arms

Coat of arms of Dilldorf

Blazon : “Changing colors in red and gold; split twice and offset downwards; in the wider center of the shield above the alchemical symbol for copper , the red symbol of a church, rising above the dividing line . "

The church symbol is reminiscent of the Dilldorf Chapel, which was built in 1800; the symbol for copper symbolizes the bond with Kupferdreh, as do the colors.

The coat of arms was designed by Kurt Schweder at the request of the Dilldorf volunteer fire brigade and never had an official character. At the end of the 1980s, the heraldist created coats of arms for all of Essen's districts. They have meanwhile been well received by the Essen population.
