history

Kreisch was first mentioned in a document in 1513, but the time of origin of the settlement is assumed to have been between 693 and 750 during the Saxon - Franconian border disputes. Thus Kreisch is one of the early settlements in Halver.

In 1818 five residents lived in Kreisch. According to the location and distance table of the government district of Arnsberg , the place was categorized as a farm and in 1838 had a population of 35, all of whom were Protestant. At that time the place belonged to the Kamscheider peasantry within the mayor's office of Halver and owned five houses, a factory or mill and four agricultural buildings.

The municipality encyclopedia for the province of Westphalia from 1887 gives a number of 66 inhabitants for Kreisch who lived in ten houses.

At the latest since the early Middle Ages (according to other sources since prehistoric times) an important old road from Wipperfürth to Breckerfeld ran west of Kreisch .
