history

A Schwamborn was first mentioned in a document around 1470 as a Schwamborn . The appellative in the place name is Born , an old term for “ source ” , the defining word is not entirely clear. It could be derived from " swan " or actually " sponge " . * Schwandborn (= " dwindling, drying up source" ) is possibly also the origin of the name.

The Topographia Ducatus Montani by Erich Philipp Ploennies , Blatt Amt Steinbach , shows that the living space had four farmsteads as early as 1715, which are labeled as Schwamborn . Carl Friedrich von Wiebeking names the court on his charter of the Duchy of Berg in 1789 as Schwanborn . It emerges from it that the place was part of the honor of saints in the parish of Overath at that time .

The place is on the topographical survey of the Rhineland from 1817 as Gr. Schwamborn recorded. The Prussian first recording from 1845 shows the residential area under the name Gr. Schwamborn .

In 1845, according to the survey of the government district of Cöln, categorized as a village and designated Groß-Schwamborn , at that time it had twelve residential buildings with 72 inhabitants, all of which were Catholic.

The list of residents and livestock from 1848, which among other things was used to collect taxes, gives a little insight into living conditions at that time. She registered 77 residents in Großschwamborn (including 32 children under 16 years of age) and gave names and professions of the heads of household, including the seamstress Margarethe König and the tailor Gerhard Schwamborn.
