Honest Schöller

The Honschaft Schöller was an Honschaft in the subordinate rule Schöller , which belonged to the office of Solingen in the Duchy of Berg from around 1350 . After the end of the French occupation at the beginning of the 19th century and the dissolution of the Grand Duchy of Berg in 1815, the Honschaft Schöller - while maintaining the municipal reorganization of the Duchy carried out by the French - was finally assigned to the Mayor of Haan in the Elberfeld district of the administrative district of Düsseldorf within the Prussian Rhine province and was thus one of the lowest Bergisch administrative units until the 19th century .

With the municipal regulations for the Rhine Province in 1845, the Honschaft was transformed into the municipality of Schöller .

According to the statistics and topography of the Düsseldorf administrative district from 1832, the following towns and places of residence belonged to the Honschaft: Am Wald , Buntenbeck , Drinnhaus , Habbach , Holthausen , In der Furth , Kalkofen , Schleheck , Schöller and Siepen . The living spaces Am Wald, Kalkofen and Schleheck fell in desolation in the second half of the 20th century due to the expanding Osterholz pit .
