geography

The Hof Höhe lies on the ridge between the Lochbachtal in the north and the Viehbachtal in the south in the west of the Solingen district of Mitte. The Hofschaft Loch is on a steep slope on the opposite side of the stream in the north . In the northeast - the Lochbachtal is accessed by the dam-like Zeppelinstrasse - is the Büschberg estate . To the east of Höhe is Dingshaus with the headquarters of SWS Netze Solingen . To the south is the Scheuren industrial area .

etymology

The Hofschaft owes its name to the fact that it is halfway up the ascending road from Ohligs via Merscheid to Mangenberg . The vernacular as well as older maps often refer to the farm as In der Höhe or Inderhüh .

history

The Hofschaft Höhe can be traced back to the 17th century. The Hof Höhe is recorded in 1715 in the map Topographia Ducatus Montani , Blatt Amt Solingen , by Erich Philipp Ploennies with a farm and named as Höhe . The topographical survey of the Rhineland from 1824 lists the place as In d. Höhe and the Prussian premiere from 1844 as In d. Height . In the topographic map of the Düsseldorf administrative district from 1871, the place is recorded as Höh .

Historically, Hof Höhe belonged to the Hackhausen family , but was surrounded by the Scheid family's courts. Until the beginning of the 19th century, the entire region belonged to the Duchy of Berg , which was last owned by Duke Maximilian IV of Bavaria . Due to a barter agreement, the area came under Napoleon's sphere of influence in 1806 and thus became part of the Grand Duchy of Berg on the Rhine . In the course of a territorial reform in 1807, the height of Honschaft Scheid was assigned within the newly established Mairie forest. The latter became the mayor's office in 1815 .

In 1815/16 61, in 1830 69 people lived in what is known as the hamlet Höh . In 1832 the place was part of the Second Dorfhonschaft within the mayor's office forest, there it was in the corridor V. ( forest ). The place, which was categorized as a court town according to the statistics and topography of the Düsseldorf government district , had ten residential buildings and nine agricultural buildings at that time. At that time 55 people lived in the place, seven of them Catholic and 48 Protestant denominations. The municipality and estate district statistics of the Rhine Province list the place in 1871 with 25 houses and 150 inhabitants. In the municipality lexicon for the Rhineland province from 1888, 29 houses with 177 inhabitants are given for height. In 1895 the district had 17 houses with 124 inhabitants, in 1905 17 houses and 103 inhabitants are given.

With the town union of Groß-Solingen in 1929 the Hofschaft Höhe became a district of Solingen. On the former arable land in the east of Höhe, between the Höher, the Büschberger and the Beethovenstraße, the new administrative building of the Solingen public utilities was built in the early 1980s , which was inaugurated on October 9, 1981. Since 1985/1992, of the historical half-timbered houses at Höhe, the buildings at heights 5, 7, 9, 11 and 19 have been under monument protection .
