history

The Topographia Ducatus Montani by Erich Philipp Ploennies from 1715, Blatt Amt Steinbach , proves that the place already existed in 1715 as a place with several courtyards and was called height . From the chart of the Duchy of Berg in 1789 by Carl Friedrich von Wiebeking it emerges that at that time Herrenhöhe was part of the Honschaft Bechen in the parish of Kürten in the district court of Kürten. He names the place as height .

Under the French administration between 1806 and 1813, the Steinbach office was dissolved and Herrenhöhe was politically assigned to the Mairie Kürten in the canton of Wipperfürth in the Elberfeld arrondissement . In 1816 the Prussians converted the Mairie to the mayor's office in Kürten in the Wipperfürth district . At that time, Herrenhöhe belonged to the municipality of Bechen.

The place is recorded on the topographical survey of the Rhineland from 1824 as height and on the Prussian first survey of 1840 as height . From the Prussian New Admissions of 1892 it is regularly recorded on measuring table sheets as height or gentleman height .

In 1822 three people lived in the place, which was categorized as a house and referred to as altitude . In 1830 the place had residents and was referred to as height . The place, which was categorized as a house in 1845 according to the overview of the government district of Cologne , had a residential building at that time. At that time, residents lived in the area mentioned above, all of them of Catholic faith. The municipality and estate district statistics of the Rhine province lists Herrenhöhe in 1871 with one house and eight residents. In the municipality lexicon for the Rhineland province of 1888, a house with eight residents is given. In 1895 the place had a house and twelve residents. In 1905 the place had one residential building and eleven inhabitants and belonged denominationally to the Catholic parish of Bechen.

In 1927 the mayor's office in Kürten was transferred to the office of Kürten. In the Weimar Republic in 1929 the offices of Kürten were merged with the municipalities of Kürten and Bechen and Olpe with the municipalities of Olpe and Wipperfeld to form the office of Kürten. The Wipperfürth district became part of the Rheinisch-Bergisch district on October 1, 1932, with its seat in Bergisch Gladbach . From the TK25 of 1954 the name Höhe is no longer used, but Herrenhöhe.

In 1975 the current municipality of Kürten was established on the basis of the Cologne Act , to which, in addition to the offices of Kürten, Bechen and Olpe, a sub-area of ​​the city of Bensberg with Dürscheid and the surrounding areas was added.

At the beginning of the 1990s, the Klief and Herrenhöhe localities merged through the creation of the Herweg commercial park. The industrial park covers an area of ​​135,000 square meters.
