from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Honschaft Brücke (also Honschaft Bruck ) was in the Middle Ages and modern times a Honschaft in the parish of Leichlingen in the Bergisch Amt Miselohe . She was one of three honors in the parish.

The honor was first mentioned in 1656. It encompassed today's Leichlinger urban area west of the Wupper and was named after the Leichlinger Wupperbrücke, first mentioned in a document in 1457, and the bridge adjacent to it .
