Großbuchholz is a village in the Untereschbach district of Overath in the Rheinisch-Bergisches Kreis . The north-eastern part of the house still standing today most likely dates from around 1600, as dendrochronological studies on the beams have shown.

Location and naming

Großbuchholz is located on the eastern edge of the Königsforst . The name Buchholz refers to the natural conditions in the area with a population of beech and oak trees , whereby the oak is botanically also a beech plant.

history

The establishment of the farm under the Lehmbach Farm Association was completed at the beginning of the 12th century. The earliest owners mentioned were the Counts of Meer, who came into the ownership of the Sulsen farm association (today: Immekeppel ) through inheritance law .

The first mention under the root word Buchholz is found in 1322 with the name Buchulcz , which was written in 1413 as Boechhoyltz . At that time, another estate with a similar name was built in the vicinity (meaning Klein Buchholz ). Therefore, the property was renamed Grossen Bocholtz . In the following years, the following spelling names are used for the living space:

  • 1586 Bocholz
  • 1655 Bocholß
  • 1709 Bocholz
  • 1733 Groessen Bocholz
  • 1757 Bocholtzhof
  • 1757 Buchholtzer Hof
  • 1787 Buchholz
  • 1814 Buchholtz
  • 1816 Großer Buchholz, Buchholzer Hof
  • 1855 The large Buchholzerhof
  • unknown: Großbuchholzerhof
  • 1894 Groß Buchholz
  • From the middle of the 20th century: large book wood

The place was on the Brüderstraße , an important medieval old highway from Flanders via Cologne to Leipzig .

The Topographia Ducatus Montani by Erich Philipp Ploennies , Blatt Amt Porz , shows that the residential area had a courtyard as early as 1715, which is labeled as Buchholtz . Carl Friedrich von Wiebeking names the court on his charter of the Duchy of Berg in 1789 as Buchholz . It shows that the place was part of the Unterirchspiel Immekeppel in the upper court of Bensberg at that time . The place is on the topographical survey of the Rhineland from 1817 as Gr. Buchholz recorded. The Prussian first recording from 1845 shows the residential area under the name Buchholzerhof . From the Prussian new admission of 1892 the place is regularly as Gr. Buchholz and Großbuchholz recorded.

In 1822 14 people lived in the village, which was categorized as a farm and after the collapse of the Napoleonic administration and its replacement, it belonged to the Bensberg mayor in the Mülheim am Rhein district . For the year 1830, 24 inhabitants are given for large and small book wood. The place, which was categorized as a farm property in 1845 according to the overview of the government district of Cologne , had a residential building with nine inhabitants at that time, all of whom were Catholic. The municipal and estate district statistics of the Rhine Province lists Großbuchholz in 1871 with one house and five residents as a single house. In the municipality lexicon for the Rhineland province of 1888, two houses with seven inhabitants are given for Großbuchholz. In 1895 the place had a house with five inhabitants, in 1905 one house and 14 inhabitants are given.

On the basis of Section 10 of the Cologne Act , several Bensberg outlying areas were transferred to the Overath community in 1975, including the area around Untereschbach with large book wood.
