history

Bilkrath already appears in 1332 as Pelichrade , 1402 Peylcheroyde and 1407 as Peillichrade . The ending -rath , -royde or -rade indicates that the house was built on cleared land. The name stem is traced back to the personal name Billig .

The 1402 source shows that the lords of Kalkum owned Bilkrath at the end of the 14th century . For example, Johann von Caelchem ​​von Peylcheroyde , who was executed a long time ago by the city of Cologne in 1402 and whose execution was one of the triggers for the Kalkum feuds , is mentioned. Before that, Johann's (great) grandfather Hermann von Kalkum, bailiff at Angermund , is said to have lived on Bilkrath as early as 1312 . In the first half of the 15th century Gerhard van der Brüggen , judge in Angermund, master chef of the duke and married to Steyngen vom Angeren , was Herr zu Pilckrath . In 1443 the estate was owned by the knight Wilhelm von Landsberg gt. Eggerscheidt and his son-in-law Dietrich von Aschenberg. Possibly the latter sold the farm to knight Ailff Quade , bailiff at Angermund. Because the former moated castle was owned by the Quadt family for many years .

In 1559 Bilkrath was measured by Hermann Brinck , a citizen of Uerdingen . The entire property comprised 156 acres of land. The main field was in the large field by the yard. Other lands were on Kalkstrasse, Kirchweg, next to Kalkumer Kirchland and Dickenbusch.

1596 sold Konrad Quadt the plant for 5,000 Taler köllnisch (billed every 52 Albus köllnisch) to named William Scheid Weschpfennig to Heltorf, Hofpfalzgraf and bailiff of the Office Solingen and Castle and the Office Beyenburg . Since then, Bilkrath has had the same owners as Heltorf, i. H. named after the Lords von Scheidt Weschpfennig until today the Lords / Counts von Spee .

In the last few centuries Bilkrath was leased apart from short intervals. In 1631 the farm was leased to a Theis (Matthias). In 1766 Bilkrath went to Johann Peter Thielen for twelve years, and in 1778 also for twelve years to the married couple Heligerus Huntgeburth and Maria Katharina Schmitz. In 1791 the lease for the couple was extended for another 12 years. The Huntgeburth descendants managed the farm until 1932. After that, the Klünter family lived on the farm. Since 2006 the Köppel family has run a riding stables with 30 horse stalls, two outdoor riding arenas and an exercise hall on Bilkrath.

The house has been a listed building since October 1st, 1990.
