history

Gut Haswinkel is first mentioned in a document from 1291. In it, the knights Hermann and Gottschalk von Haswinkel are named. In 1380 the estate was owned by the Duke of Berg and was given away in 1409 to Wilhelm von Nesselrode at Herrnstein Castle near Winterscheid . He bequeathed the farm to the monastery in Bödingen in Oberberg , in whose possession it remained until 1803. The donation to the monastery Bödingen is noted on the foundation board of the pilgrimage church of the painful mother of God (Bödingen) .

The Topographia Ducatus Montani map from 1715 shows the farm under the name Hasewinckel . In the 18th century, the place belonged to the parish of Leichlingen in the Bergisches Amt Miselohe . The topographical survey of the Rhineland from 1824 and the Prussian first survey from 1844 record the place as Haswinkel and Haaswinkel, respectively .

In 1815/16 twelve people lived in the village. In 1832 Haswinkel belonged to the mayor's office in Leichlingen . The place, which was categorized as arable property according to the statistics and topography of the Düsseldorf administrative district , had a residential house and four agricultural buildings at that time. At that time, 13 residents lived in the place, all of them Catholic faith.

In the municipality lexicon for the Rhineland province in 1885 two houses with 23 inhabitants are given. In 1895 the place comprised three houses with 16 inhabitants, in 1905 three houses and 12 inhabitants.

On May 28, 1946 there was a crime at Gut Haswinkel in which the Leichlingen population took an active part. When an attack on the estate by Polish foreign workers was thwarted, the then deputy English city commandant, Captain Patterson, was shot four times from a machine gun at around 11 p.m. The municipality then decided to erect a memorial stone for the murdered captain at the site of the crime. The memorial stone is lost and its whereabouts have not yet been clarified.

An old Bergische legend about the dwarf Niesel zu Haswinkel, who lived here invisibly as a good guardian and is said to have brought luck and prosperity to the tenants, is linked to the estate .
