Hasselbeck-Schwarzbach

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hasselbeck-Schwarzbach was a municipality in the Düsseldorf-Mettmann district from 1930 to 1974 , initially in the Prussian Rhine Province and from 1946 in North Rhine-Westphalia . The area of ​​the former municipality is now in the cities of Düsseldorf and Ratingen .

Geography and history

On May 15, 1930, the two communities Hasselbeck-Krumbach and Schwarzbach were merged to form the community of Hasselbeck in the Düsseldorf-Mettmann district. The new municipality, which thus comprised the area of ​​the three old Bergisch honnships Hasselbeck , Krumbach and Schwarzbach , was assigned to the Hubbelrath office and renamed Hasselbeck-Schwarzbach in 1947 .

The community did not initially have a distinct settlement core, but was a scattered settlement with hamlets and individual farms. In the 1960s, a larger closed settlement for soldiers from the nearby Bergische Kaserne was built in the south of the municipality with Knittkuhl .

By the Düsseldorf law , the municipality of Hasselbeck-Schwarzbach was divided on January 1, 1975 into the cities of Düsseldorf and Ratingen . 1.7 km² fell from the area of ​​the municipality with the settlement Knittkuhl to Düsseldorf, while the thinly populated remainder of the municipality came to the city of Ratingen in the district of Mettmann . Today Knittkuhl is a district of Düsseldorf and the rest of the municipality today essentially forms the Ratinger district of Schwarzbach.
