history

The Hofschaft Külf was first mentioned in a document in 1672 when there is talk of Heinrich Moum living in the Külf. In the map series Topographia Ducatus Montani by Erich Philipp Ploennies , Blatt Amt Solingen , from the year 1715, the place is recorded with a farm and named as Kölf . The farm belonged to the Ketzberg Honschaft within the Solingen office. The topographical survey of the Rhineland from 1824 lists the place as in the Költ and the Prussian first survey of 1844 as Külf. In the topographic map of the Düsseldorf administrative district from 1871, the court is recorded as Külf .

After the Mairien and later mayor's offices were founded at the beginning of the 19th century, Altenfeld belonged to the Gräfrath mayor's office . In 1815/16 there were 52 people living in the village, in 1830 62 people lived in the place known as the establishment . In 1832, Külf was still part of the (Ketz-) Berg community within the Gräfrath mayor. The place, categorized as Hofstadt according to the statistics and topography of the administrative district of Düsseldorf , had eight residential buildings, seven factories or mills and eight agricultural buildings at that time. At that time, 71 residents lived in the village, four of them Catholic and 67 Protestant. The municipality and estate district statistics of the Rhine Province list the place in 1871 with 14 houses and 82 inhabitants.
