etymology

The name of the court probably goes back to the family name Garze. Similar to many other courts, the place name was probably based on the name of early residents of the place , so the Garzes' house probably became Garzenhaus .

history

The first settlement of Garzenhaus took place much later than that of the relatively old Bavert court. The former knight's seat Schloss Caspersbroich west of Garzenhaus was also built beforehand. In the map drawn up by Erich Philipp Ploennies in 1715 , the place appears as Scharzenhüs . In the 18th century, the place belonged to the Honschaft Schnittert in the parish of Wald of the Bergisch district of Solingen and there to the school district Weyer . The topographical survey of the Rhineland from 1824 and the Prussian first survey from 1844 record the place as Gartzenhaus and Garzenhaus .

In 1815/16 there were 44 people living in the village. In 1832 Garzenhaus belonged to the mayor's office of Merscheid , which was renamed Ohligs in 1891. The place, which was categorized as a court town according to the statistics and topography of the Düsseldorf administrative district , had eight residential buildings and ten agricultural buildings at that time. At that time 59 people lived in the place, two of them Catholic and 57 Protestant.

In the municipality encyclopedia for the Rhineland province in 1885 eleven houses with 91 inhabitants are given, in 1895 the place has 13 houses with 101 inhabitants. With the merger of cities and the incorporation of Ohligs, Garzenhaus also came to Solingen in 1929.

The half-timbered houses Garzenhaus 15 , 23 and 25 in the courtyard have been under monument protection since January 22, 1985 .
