Honschaft Scherf

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Honschaft Scherf was from the early Middle Ages until the 17th century into a Honschaft in the parish Odenthal in office Porz in the Duchy of Berg .

A preserved tax list from 1586 shows that the Honschaft was in the southeast of the parish. At that time, the honors included the residential areas Borsbach , Höffe , Ober- and Unterkirsbach , Hunger , Kümps , Klasmühle , the titular towns of Scherf , Pistershausen , Schallemich , Eikamp , Scheid and the Kramerhof .

After the parish of Odenthal became the dominion of Odenthal in 1634 , no honors are known. From Carl Friedrich von Wiebeking's 1789 map of the Duchy of Berg, it emerges that the Odenthal parish was divided into the Unterodenthal and Oberodenthal Lower Churches and no longer into honors. The area of ​​the Honschaft Scherf then belonged to Oberodenthal.
