geography

Focher Dahl is located south of the Hofschaft Unterflachsberg and the Nümmener Bach , west of Obenflachsberg , north of Central and east of Nümmen in the Solingen district of Gräfrath . Just off the Hofschaft past the old railway embankment leads the so-called corkscrew path , now used as a footpath corkscrew route .

etymology

The Hofschaftsname has had two components since 1935, when the place name Foche was added to the name to make it easier to distinguish it from the two other Dahler Höfe in the enlarged Solingen urban area. Since then, the word Foche has been referring to the nearby residential area of the same name . The original name Dahl means valley, the name comes from the location of the farm in a valley southeast of the Nümmener Bach.

history

The court of Dahl is recorded in 1715 in the map of Erich Philipp Ploennies between Nümmen and Flachsberg as in Dahl . The topographical survey of the Rhineland from 1824 lists the place as Im Thal and the Prussian first survey from 1844 as Dahl . In the topographic map of the Düsseldorf administrative district from 1871, the court is also listed as Dahl .

In 1815/16 there were 27 people living in the village. In 1830, the Dahl , known as a hamlet, belonged to the mayor's office in Gräfrath ; 32 people lived in the village at that time. In 1832 Vocher Dahl was part of the Honschaft (Ketz-) Berg under the name Dahl within the mayor's office of Gräfrath. The place, which was categorized as a court town according to the statistics and topography of the Düsseldorf government district , had five residential buildings, three factories or mills and three agricultural buildings at that time. At that time, 41 residents lived in the village, six of them Catholic and 35 Protestant. The municipality and estate district statistics of the Rhine Province list the place in 1871 with seven houses and 35 inhabitants. In the municipality lexicon for the province of Rhineland in 1885 nine houses with 58 inhabitants are given. In 1895 the district had nine houses with 50 inhabitants, in 1905 nine houses and 56 inhabitants are given.

In 1887, the Solingen-Wuppertal-Vohwinkel railway line was laid directly past the village . With the town union of Groß-Solingen in 1929, Dahl became a district of Solingen. After the city union there were three farms called Dahl in Solingen, the Merscheider Dahl , the Aufderhöher and the Graefather Dahl. To make it easier to distinguish between them, the Graefrather and the Aufderhöher Hof received additions to their names on April 26, 1935. This is how the Gillicher Dahl in Aufderhöhe and the Focher Dahl in Gräfrath were created. The street leading to the Graefrather Hofschaft kept its name Dahler Straße.
