Etymology and history

Heister is the name for a young tree that was later also used for beech and oak .

In the 19th century Heistersfeld was a residential area in the rural community of Schöller of the Haan mayor's office (from 1894 Gruiten's mayor's office ), which emerged from the Bergisch rule of Schöller . On the topographical survey of the Rhineland from 1824 and on the Prussian first survey from 1843, the place is labeled with Heistersfeld . In 1888, according to the community dictionary for the Rhineland province , the place had a house with four residents.

The Provinzialstraße between Elberfeld and Düsseldorf was built through the place at the beginning of the 19th century, which was qualified as Reichsstraße 7 in 1934 and later renamed Bundesstraße 7. The tram line between Mettmann and Wuppertal , which was closed on May 18, 1952, ran along the road . With the regional reform of 1975, the community of Schöller was split off from the Gruiten office in the Düsseldorf-Mettmann district and incorporated into Wuppertal as the Schöller-Dornap residential area.
