Honschaft Gladbach: Extract of the map from 1789, Wiebeking

The honor of Gladbach was from the Middle Ages into the 19th century one of two honors in the parish of Gladbach in the Porz office in the Duchy of Berg .

From the Charter of the Duchy of Berg in 1789 by Carl Friedrich von Wiebeking shows that the Kirchdorf Gladbach Titularort was the Honschaft and the parish. The honor was assigned to the Gladbach messenger office and the Bensberg Higher Court . In the Wiebeking map of 1789 the boundaries of the Gladbach Honschaft are shown; it corresponds roughly to the current district of Gladbach.

At that time the honors included the residential areas Cederwald , Gladbach, Heide , Heiden, Lochermühle , Neuborn , Scherenberg, and Schreibersheide .

Under the French administration between 1806 and 1813, the Porz office was dissolved and Gladbach was politically assigned to the Mairie Gladbach in the canton of Bensberg in the Mülheim am Rhein arrondissement . In 1816 the Prussians converted the Mairie to the mayor's office in Gladbach in the Mülheim am Rhein district .
