Location of Fliesteden in North Rhine-Westphalia

Fliesteden is a district of the city of Bergheim in the North Rhine-Westphalian Rhein-Erft district .

history

Fliesteden was first mentioned in a document in 1134 as "Vlysteiden" , which means something like "settlement on a body of water".

Fliesteden was a free rule whose sovereign affiliation between the Duchy of Jülich and the Electorate of Cologne was disputed, but could not be enforced by either. The Count of Reifferscheid-Bedburg was the main owner of the rule; next to him, the owners of the Upper and Lower Castle were co-lords until the line died out, the Raitz von Frentz zu Fliesteden (most recently the Count von Belderbusch and a Herr von Grass). In 1715, the Cologne Elector Joseph Clemens had the rule militarily occupied and Mr. von Grass locked up in Brühl .
