history

For the year 1670 the burger stock book notes that Peter Jäger and Johannes Hutz set an iron hammer below Wöllersberg, next to the Reisberg, which now belongs to Peter Bertram. Peter Bertram was already present at the hereditary homage in Ostringhausen in 1666. Before that, on November 23, 1665, Johannes zum Hützen married Elsgen Henkel from Wöllersberg in Kirspiel Remscheid.

According to the treasure and tax list of Wermelskirchen from 1684, Peter Bertrams pays 652 Taler 33 Stüber and a Heller tax for the meadow at Emminghauser Steg up to the hammer, without the hammer.

In 1691 Christian Thomas and Elisabeth Henkels, widow of Peter Bertrams, married in their first marriage to Johann Hütz.

In the burger stock book from 1692, Peter Jeger zum Birgden is now called Peter Bertrams zu Wüllersberg as long as his hammer is standing.

Arnold Hütz and Johann Bertrams, Wöllersberg, are named in the eventual hereditary homage from 1730.

Rentei Burg names Peter Jäger and Peter Bertram's heirs. They built a horizontal hammer at the Eyfischen Bach.

In 1812, the widow Arnold Molineus, Anna Kamphausen, sold the Hutzhammer Platz on Kameral Reisberger Busch after the purchase made in 1778.

The sinking of the hammer is z. Not known at the moment. A plan for Neuemühle from 1825 shows Hutzhammer-Platz as a desolate location.

Today there is a parking lot for hikers at the site.
