Heiligenhoven is a historical collective name for the districts of Unter- , Mittel- and Oberheiligenhoven in the municipality of Lindlar in the Oberbergischer Kreis in the administrative district of Cologne in North Rhine-Westphalia ( Germany ).
Location and description
The three places are in the valley of the Lennef stream . While Oberheiligenhoven is located southwest of Lindlar and has grown together with the town center in terms of urban development, Mittel- and Unterheiligenhoven are further to the south.
history
In 1413, Heiligenhoven is mentioned for the first time in a combing register of Fronhof Lindlar with the name "Heiligenhoeven" . As recently as 1715, several farms in the Lennefe Valley were uniformly referred to as Heiligenhoven on the Topographia Ducatus Montani . With the topographical survey of the Rhineland map from 1825, the farms have their own names.
