history

Grünenplatz appears as Gruneplatz on the map of the Duchy of Berg by Carl Friedrich von Wiebeking from 1789. The place is labeled on the topographical survey of the Rhineland from 1824 as Grüneplatz , on the Prussian first photo from 1840 it is unlabeled. From the Prussian new admission in 1892 it is regularly listed as Grünenplatz until its departure . The place was on the newly built Chaussee at the beginning of the 19th century , which led from Rittershausen over the Heckinghauser Zollbrücke and Lüttringhausen to Lennep .

In the 19th century, Grünenplatz belonged to the Hülsberger Rotte in the rural outskirts of the city of Ronsdorf . In the municipality encyclopedia for the province of Rhineland in 1885 two houses with 38 inhabitants are given, in the edition for 1895 there are two houses with 27 inhabitants.

On May 15, 1900, an area swap took place between the mayor's office of Ronsdorf and the mayor's office of Lüttringhausen , in which the Hülsberger Rotte and Grünenplatz came to Lüttringhausen. The 1905 edition of the parish lexicon for the Rhineland province now shows Grünenplatz as a Lüttringhauser living space and indicates a house with seven residents. The residential buildings of the residential area were demolished in the middle of the 20th century and built over with factory buildings from the neighboring company Dirostahl.
