Fröhlenhausen was in the Bever valley in the eastern part of Hückeswagen near the city limits of Wipperfürth . Neighboring places were Käfernberg , Wefelsen , Großberghausen , Ober- and Niederlangenberg , on Hückeswagener and Oberröttenscheid also Wipperfürth urban area. The neighboring Rasselstein , Rotterdam and Gillesbever were also removed as part of the construction of the dam .

history

The place was mentioned for the first time in 1513 in a "list of donations for the Marien Altar of the Hückeswagen Church". The spelling of the first mention was Frölenhausen . The map Topographia Ducatus Montani from 1715 shows the farm as Frielenhusen . In the 18th century, the place belonged to the Berghauser Honschaft in the Bergisches Amt Bornefeld-Hückeswagen . In 1753 Johann Flender , who owned numerous factories in the region, built a Reckhammer in the village .

In 1815/16 15 people lived in the village. In 1819 the district administrator of the Lennep district compiled a list of the disused or converted water drives in the district for the royal government in Düsseldorf. It shows that two iron hammers belonging to Peter Johann Flender (son of Johann Flender) in Fröhlenhausen had probably been out of service since 1804.

The topographical record of the Rhineland from 1824 shows the place and the Prussian first record from 1844 as Fröhlenhausen .

In 1832 Fröhlenhausen was still a member of the Berghauser Honschaft, which was part of the Hückeswagen external citizenship within the Hückeswagen mayor's office . The place, categorized as a craftsman's apartment and iron hammer according to the statistics and topography of the administrative district of Düsseldorf , had four houses, two iron hammers and four agricultural buildings at that time. At that time, 31 residents lived in the village, four of whom were Catholic and 27 Protestant. This year the Flender brothers owned a barn, three houses and two iron hammers.

In 1835 one of the two hammers was operated as a horizontal hammer . He had two overshot water wheels. In 1839 there are two refining steel hammers made by the Flender brothers. In 1847 the operation of a bone mill is documented.

In the municipality lexicon for the Rhineland province in 1885, two houses with 26 inhabitants are given. At that time the place belonged to the rural community Neuhückeswagen within the Lennep district . In 1895 the place had two houses with ten residents.

In 1898 the old Bevertalsperre was dammed. Fröhlenhausen was laid down and flooded as part of the dam construction.
