description

Gerhardsberg is one of the places that extend between Kürten and Sürth over the so-called Bergerhöhe .

The Kürten golf course is directly adjacent to the north of Meiersberg.

history

The Bergerhöhe was mentioned in a document in 1383, with which a loan to Wilhelm II of Jülich-Berg was established. The current location is mentioned as the third mountain . The name Gerhardsberg probably refers, according to the interpretation of the local history association, to the first name of a resident who lived here a long time ago.

The Topographia Ducatus Montani by Erich Philipp Ploennies from 1715, Blatt Amt Steinbach , shows that the place already existed in 1715 as a place with several courtyards and was called Gerhardsberg . Carl Friedrich von Wiebeking names the court on his charter of the Duchy of Berg in 1789 as Gerhardsberg . It shows that at that time Gerhardsberg was part of the Berg Honschaft in the parish of Olpe in the district court of Kürten.

Under French administration between 1806 and 1813, the Steinbach office was dissolved and Gerhardsberg was politically assigned to Mairie Olpe in the canton of Wipperfürth in the Elberfeld arrondissement . In 1816 the Prussians converted the Mairie to the Olpe mayor in the Wipperfürth district . At that time Gerhardsberg belonged to the municipality of Olpe.

The place is recorded on the topographical survey of the Rhineland from 1824 and on the Prussian first survey of 1840 as Gerhardsberg . From the Prussian new recording from 1892 he is on Ordnance Survey regularly as Gerhardsberg recorded.

In 1822, 39 people lived in the place, which was categorized as a court and called Gerhardsberg . In 1830 the place had 41 inhabitants. The place, which was categorized as a hamlet in 1845 according to the overview of the government district of Cologne , had ten houses at that time. At this time, 85 inhabitants lived in the place called Gerhardsberg, 52 of them Catholic and 33 Protestant denominations. The municipality and estate district statistics of the Rhine province listed Gerhardsberg 1871 with nine houses and 49 inhabitants. In the municipality lexicon for the province of Rhineland from 1888, eight houses with 39 inhabitants are given and the place is designated. In 1895 the place had seven houses and 37 residents. In 1905 the place had six houses and 27 residents and belonged denominationally to the Catholic parish of Olpe and the Protestant parish of Delling.

In 1927 the Olpe mayor's office was transferred to the Olpe office. In the Weimar Republic in 1929 the offices of Kürten were merged with the municipalities of Kürten and Bechen and Olpe with the municipalities of Olpe and Wipperfeld to form the office of Kürten. The Wipperfürth district became part of the Rheinisch-Bergisch district on October 1, 1932, with its seat in Bergisch Gladbach .

In 1975 the current municipality of Kürten was established on the basis of the Cologne Act , to which, in addition to the offices of Kürten, Bechen and Olpe, a sub-area of ​​the city of Bensberg with Dürscheid and the surrounding areas was added.
