Lehn is a court in the Solingen district of Mitte .

geography

Hof Lehn is located on the ridge and on the southern slope of the Lochbach Valley in the west of the Solingen district of Mitte. In the north and west, the courtyard is surrounded by the Lehner Berg allotment garden . The Lehner Straße leads in a westerly direction into the Dältgenstal , in the north lies Eigen . In addition, the Kleinenberg lies west of Lehn . In the east and south, the Hofschaft is bounded by the 141n state road (L 141n / Viehbachtalstraße), which has been converted into a motor vehicle . Dingshaus and Obengönrath are to the south and southwest respectively . On the other side of Viehbachtalstraße are the bus depot of the Stadtwerke Solingen and the waste incineration plant .

etymology

The etymological background of the court name is based on the medieval feudal system . Lehn (from mhd. Lêhen ) means feudal property, as a good for which the owner who managed it was bound by obligations towards the owner (such as the payment of taxes). A contrast to this is formed by private goods such as Eigen on the other side of the Lochbach.

history

The Hofschaft Lehn is one of the oldest in the area influenced by the upper Lochbach valley. It already existed before 1213 when a Frowin de Lene was first mentioned in documents . In 1488 the farm was mentioned in a document as zom Leen . Erich Philipp Ploennies recorded the farm in 1715 on the map Topographia Ducatus Montani , Blatt Amt Solingen , and already named it as a fief . He belonged to the Scheid Honschaft within the Solingen office. The topographical survey of the Rhineland from 1824 lists the place as a fief and the Prussian first survey of 1844 as a fief . In the topographical map of the Düsseldorf administrative district from 1871, the place is recorded as Lehn .

After the Mairien and later mayor's offices were founded at the beginning of the 19th century, Lehn belonged to the Wald mayorry . In 1815/16 117, in 1830 132 people lived in what is known as the hamlet zum Lehn . In 1832 the place was part of the Second Dorfhonschaft within the mayor's office forest, there it was in the corridor V. ( forest ). The place, which was categorized as Hofstadt according to the statistics and topography of the administrative district of Düsseldorf , had a public building, 27 residential buildings and 23 agricultural buildings at that time. At that time, 131 people lived in the village, 34 of whom were Catholic and 97 Protestant. The municipality and estate district statistics of the Rhine Province list the place in 1871 with 41 houses and 215 inhabitants. In the municipality lexicon for the Rhineland province of 1888, 40 houses with 258 inhabitants are given for Demmeltrath. In 1895 the district had 43 houses with 206 inhabitants, in 1905 41 houses and 222 inhabitants are given. 

With the town union of Groß-Solingen in 1929, the Lehn court became a district of Solingen. As one of the few actually realized sections of the planned Autobahn 54 , a four-lane motor road through the Viehbachtal was built at the end of the 1970s on the section from An der Gemarke to Mangenberg . This section of the Viehbachtalstraße, dedicated as L 141n, was opened to traffic on August 31, 1979. After numerous complaints from residents about too much noise, a number of measures for improved noise protection were introduced in the following year . The construction of the Viehbachtalstraße between Mangenberg and the Frankfurter Damm past Lehn took place until 1981. However, there was no further development; the A 54 was never completed.

Of the historic half-timbered houses in Lehn, the Lehn 5 building has been a listed building since 1984 .
