history

In the Middle Ages and the modern era up to the end of the 19th century, Mörsenbroich was a barely populated area largely covered by forest and swamp with a few farms only later. Noble courts and manors were not available, so that so far hardly any written evidence for this time is known. With the increased settlement of the area north of Düsseldorf from the end of the 18th century, there is first evidence of this current district. In the French era , the village of "Moersenbruch" is listed among the localities belonging to the canton of Düsseldorf. In his description of the administrative district of 1817 for Düsseldorf, "Stahl" also mentioned Mörsenbroich with 348 residents.

In a study from 1836 on the localities in the Düsseldorf district and the city, Mörsenbroich was listed as a village belonging to the Düsseldorf-Derendorf area. At that time Mörsenbroich had 347 inhabitants and, in addition to the village, also included the hamlets "An der Linde" (4 houses with 21 residents), "An den Wegen" (3 houses with 17 residents) and "Am Schein" (4 houses with 39 Residents) as well as five more Kothen.

In the official notices of the city of Düsseldorf, such as the official gazette, Mörsenbroich was mentioned more often from the middle of the 19th century. This was particularly true of the real estate market, where land and houses were offered for this area. Another example from 1902. Here a road user fee was advertised in the official gazette, which the highest bidder could purchase. The "Chausseegeld" for a thoroughfare in Mörsenbroich should be collected at a barrier in the Aaperkothen area.

General

The district is known nationwide for the traffic junction " Mörsenbroicher Ei ", a busy, "egg-shaped" intersection. There are several allotment gardens distributed over the district , one of the larger ones in the city lies between the motorway slip road and the western district boundary. Again and again you come across larger green spaces in the relatively quiet quarter. Mörsenbroich is known for having one of the largest and oldest (since 1979) Veedelszüge in the Düsseldorf carnival session.

In the southeast of Mörsenbroich there was a larger barracks area , which has been redesigned as the Reitzenstein garden city since the beginning of the 21st century . In the vicinity there are green, tranquil residential areas, which sometimes suggest the proximity to the affluent districts of Düsseldorf-Zoo and Düsseldorf-Grafenberg.
