etymology

The word Eick stands for the oak tree . Oak forests did not occur very often in the region in the Middle Ages , so that the farms that arose near them were often named after them. In contrast to beech forests , they had the advantage that they could be processed into suitable charcoal - an important location factor for the emergence of the Solingen blade craft . Compare also the Solingen place names Kohlfurther Eickholz , Eickenberg or Eichholz .

history

The history of Hof Eick can be traced back to the 16th century. In the map series Topographia Ducatus Montani by Erich Philipp Ploennies , Blatt Amt Solingen , from the year 1715, the place is recorded with a farm and as z. Named Eich . The court belonged to the Dorp Honschaft within the Solingen office. The topographical survey of the Rhineland from 1824 lists the place as zur Eick and the Prussian first survey from 1844 as Eick. In the topographic map of the Düsseldorf administrative district from 1871, the place is also recorded as Eick .

After the establishment of the Mairien and later mayor's offices at the beginning of the 19th century, Eick belonged to the Dorp mayor's office . In 1815/16 there were 48 people, in 1830 57 people lived in what is known as the hamlet of Zur Eick . The place, which was categorized as a court town according to the statistics and topography of the Düsseldorf administrative district , had ten residential buildings, a factory or mill and six agricultural buildings in 1832. At that time 48 residents lived in the place, three of them Catholic and 45 Protestant denominations. The municipality and estate district statistics of the Rhine Province list the place in 1871 with 14 houses and 118 inhabitants. In the municipality lexicon for the Rhineland province of 1888, 23 houses with 139 inhabitants are given for Eick .

The mayor's office or city of Dorp was merged with the city of Solingen in 1889. This made Eick a district of Solingen. In 1895 the district had 20 houses with 127 inhabitants, in 1905 16 houses and 105 inhabitants are given.
