history

The name kingdom is derived from king (Cunges, Konrad) and -rech (Rain, slope).

The first documentary mention comes from January 1461. It states that 17 denarii were to be paid from the estate to the “Hof zu Bechen”. During the War of the Spanish Succession , the Odenthalers also had to make their contributions to national defense. In this context, among other things, a Peter Stockberg on the kingdom is listed. He had to provide 6 fascines and 18 stakes .

A tax list from 1586 shows that the village was part of the Breidbach community in the Odenthal parish.

For the year 1791 a list of courtyards and estates subject to electoral law was published, in which the kingdom is mentioned, which belonged to the Scherf Honschaft . The kingdom belonged to the court of Bechen .

From Carl Friedrich von Wiebeering's charter of the Duchy of Berg in 1789 it emerges that the kingdom was part of Obderodenthal in the lordship of Odenthal at that time .

Under the French administration between 1806 and 1813, the rule was dissolved. Kingdom was politically assigned to the Mairie Odenthal in the canton of Bensberg . In 1816 the Prussians converted the Mairie to the mayor's office in Odenthal in the Mülheim am Rhein district .

The place is regularly recorded as a kingdom on the topographical survey of the Rhineland from 1824, on the Prussian first survey from 1840 and from the Prussian new survey from 1892 onwards .
