Honest Hahn

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Hilden Honschaft Hahn (formerly Haanhonschaft or Hainhonschaft ) was in the Middle Ages and modern times a Honschaft (administrative unit) in the electoral Cologne Weistum Hilden in the parish of the same name with a total area of ​​166 acres . The name of the Honschaft is not derived from the neighboring town of Haan (also Haen ), but from Hain (forest).

The farms and hamlets belonged to the honor:

  • Bausenhaus,
  • Birch trees,
  • Bovertzhaan (also Bovertzhaen, Bovertzhahn ),
  • Breidenbruch (also Bredenbruch ),
  • Bruch (also Broich ),
  • Deushahn,
  • Diekhaus,
  • Elb (also Elp ),
  • Eickert (also Eichart, Eykhartz ),
  • Giesenheide (also Geisenheide ),
  • Hahnhof (also Haanhof ),
  • Höffgen,
  • Big wood,
  • Small wood,
  • Jück (also Jeuch ),
  • Kleinenberg (also Kleinberg ),
  • Kniephaus (also Kneiphaus, Kniphaus ),
  • Thick knots (also knotted thick ),
  • Hole,
  • Lodenheide (also Loddenheyden ),
  • Walber (also Walborn )

Regardless of the honors, the courts were organized in up to four court associations, which were assigned to the local courts, which meet one to three times a year. The dishes were: the Cologne court court meeting in the Hohen Hof Hilden, the Kückeshausgeding and the Orderputzgeding (also Pützgeding ) meeting at the fountain on the site (Ufm site ). The location of the hamlets and now mostly no longer existent farms was in the north and northeast of today's urban area of ​​Hilden, as a result of area reforms partly also in the area of ​​the cities of Düsseldorf and Erkrath . A large part of the objects can only be recognized today in street names derived from them.
