history

In 1481 the place was mentioned for the first time in a list of donations for the Marien Altar of the Hückeswagen church. The spelling of the first mention was Eycken . The map Topographia Ducatus Montani from 1715 shows a courtyard and designates this courtyard with Kl.eich .

The Bergische Eisenstrasse crossed the Wupper in Kleineichen . The place was therefore also called Eisenfurt . On October 16, 1721, the mayor of Hückeswagen Freihoff received permission from Duke Karl Phillip to build a stone bridge over the Wupper instead of the ford at his own expense. The bridge fee set in the ducal decree was only collected from non-residents.

In the 18th century the place belonged to the Bergisches Amt Bornefeld-Hückeswagen . In 1815/16 there were 33 people living in the village. In 1832, Kleineichen belonged to the Berghauser Honschaft , which was part of the Hückeswagen external citizenship within the Hückeswagen mayor . The place, categorized as a hamlet according to the statistics and topography of the Düsseldorf administrative district , had three residential buildings and six agricultural buildings at that time. At that time 35 people lived in the place, 21 Catholic and 14 Protestant faith.

In the municipality lexicon for the Rhineland province , ten houses with 101 inhabitants are given for 1885.
