history

In the area of ​​the Old Rhine on the Gohrer Berg between Hoisten and Gohr , individual pieces from the Stone Age and Bronze Age were found. The images can be found in the book Hoistadensis 2000 by Marianne Philipp. A coin of the Eastern Roman emperor Herakleios (610–641) from the years 612/613 was discovered in the school garden in Hoisten . In a document from the year 818, the "land of St. Peter" was transferred to the Werden monastery . Presumably this is the area of ​​the later Catholic parish church of St. Peter. The name Hoisten is said to come from the name Hochstaden and was the seat of the Hoistadensis dynasty . In the 13th century the name Hovesteden was mentioned, which means something like farmstead . At that time the place belonged to Herr vom Helpenstein . In the 14th century Hoisten was owned by the Lords of Blankenheim and in 1415 came to the Dukes of Jülich and thus formed an enclave in Kurköln . The St. Peter Church was mentioned as early as 1300. During the Thirty Years' War the place was badly hit and people fled to the surrounding forests. In 1794 the French occupied Hoisten. The place now came to the canton of Elsen. In 1799, Hoisten had 375 inhabitants, 236 of whom were twelve years old and older. In 1815 Hoisten came to the Kingdom of Prussia and in 1816 to the mayor's office in Hülchrath , which was later renamed the Neukirchen community. On January 1, 1975, Hoisten was umgemeindet from Neukirchen to the city of Neuss.
