Honest Paffrath
The Honschaft Paffrath or Honschaft Unterpaffrath was from the Middle Ages into the 19th century one of two honors in the parish of Paffrath 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 Paffrath Titularort was the Honschaft and the parish. The honor was assigned to the Gladbach messenger office and had its own court, the Hebborn court . In the Wiebeking map of 1789 the limits of the Honschaft Paffrath are shown; it corresponds roughly to the current district of Paffrath without the parcels 24 to 29, which belonged to Odenthal, which were added by the municipal reform in 1975.
At that time the honors included the residential areas Haus Blegge , Buschhorn , Diepeschrath , Geisbock , Hand , Hoppersheide , Hufe , Hülsen , Katterbach , Neuhaus , Nussbaum , Paffrath, Siefen and Torringen .
In 1797 641 inhabitants, 134 fireplaces, 492 Bergische acres of arable land, 75 Berg. Morning meadows, 403 mountains. Acres of forest, as well as three horses and 265 oxen and cows recorded.
Under the French administration between 1806 and 1813, the Porz office was dissolved and Paffrath was politically assigned to 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 .
