history

Kahlenberg was first mentioned in 1327 as de Kalenberg . The appellative in the place name goes back to a mountain as if easily recognizable , the determinative word was formed from the nhd. Form of kahl (meaning free from vegetation).

The Topographia Ducatus Montani by Erich Philipp Ploennies from 1715, Blatt Amt Steinbach , proves that the place already existed as a place with a courtyard in 1715 and was called Kalenbach . Carl Friedrich von Wiebeking names the court on his charter of the Duchy of Berg in 1789 as Kaltenbach . It shows that at that time Kahlenberg was part of the Berg Honschaft in the parish of Kürten in the district court of Kürten.

Under the French administration between 1806 and 1813, the Steinbach office was dissolved and Kahlenberg was politically assigned to the Mairie Kürten in the canton of Wipperfürth in the Elberfeld arrondissement . In 1816 the Prussians converted the Mairie to the mayor's office in Kürten in the Wipperfürth district . At that time, Kahlenberg belonged to the municipality of Kürten.

The place is recorded on the topographical survey of the Rhineland from 1824 as Kahlenbach and on the Prussian first survey of 1840 as Calenberg . From the Prussian new admission in 1892, it is regularly recorded as Kahlenberg on measuring table sheets . From the topographic map 25 1936-1945 the place is no longer listed.

In 1822 twelve people lived in the place categorized as a house and called Kahlenberg . In 1830 the place had twelve inhabitants. The place, categorized as a courtyard in 1845 according to the overview of the government district of Cologne , had two houses at that time. At that time, 13 residents lived in the place called Kahlenberg , all of them of Catholic faith. The municipality and estate district statistics of the Rhine province lists Kahlenberg in 1871 with three houses and 14 inhabitants. In the municipality lexicon for the Rhineland province from 1888, three houses with 15 inhabitants are given. In 1895 the place had three houses and 13 residents. In 1905 the place had three houses and 15 residents and belonged denominationally to the Catholic parish of Kürten.

In 1927 the mayor's office in Kürten was transferred to the office of Kürten. In the Weimar Republic in 1929 the offices of Kürten were merged with the municipalities of Kürten and Bechen and Olpe with the municipalities of Olpe and Wipperfeld to form the office of Kürten. The Wipperfürth district became part of the Rheinisch-Bergisch district on October 1, 1932, with its seat in Bergisch Gladbach .

The buildings have completely crumbled since the 1950s. In 1987 the area was completely leveled.
