history

Half-timbered houses in Holthausen

Holthausen is recorded as Holthusen as a Bergische Hofschaft on the Topographia Ducatus Montani of Erich Philipp Ploennies from 1715, as well as on the topographical record of the Rhineland from 1824 and the Prussian first record from 1843 ( Holthsn ).

In the 19th century, Holthausen was a residential area in the rural community of Schöller, owned by the Haan mayor (from 1894 Gruiten mayor ), which emerged from the Bergisch rule of Schöller . In 1815 25 people lived in Holthausen. According to the statistics and topography of the Düsseldorf administrative district , the place was categorized as a courtyard . At that time the place had two houses and two farm buildings. 27 residents lived in the village, eight of them Catholic and 19 Protestant. In 1888, according to the municipality lexicon for the Rhineland province , the place had eight houses with 82 inhabitants.

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. Holthausen came to Wuppertal from Schöller.
