history

In 1318 the place was mentioned for the first time as “Brochagen”, namely “Th. v. Brochagen is a witness with the Lindlar lay judges in a document from the St. Ursula Monastery in Cologne regarding the officium de Sulz ”. Spelling of the first mention : Brochagen .

In 1413 it was referred to as "broechhaen" or "broeche". The name can be traced back to the fact that the first clearing point in the Sülztal was swampy and was fenced off with a hedge. An old Landwehr line ran through Brohhagen, it ran from the Horpetal near Weyer past Brochhagen through the Sülztal. In the treasury register of the St. Severinstift from 1413 it is noted: Broechhaen, 1 Gut pays 16 denarii in taxes, Grosse Brochhagen pays three denarii. In 1550 it is further noted: “Brochhain, hait Bruninck and Johan, sein broder, 1 shall”. In the late Middle Ages Brochhagen belonged to the Breun community in the Lindlar parish.

The Topographia Ducatus Montani by Erich Philipp Ploennies , Blatt Amt Steinbach , shows that the three-part living space already had three, four and three more farmsteads in 1715, which are labeled as Bruchhag . In the western part of the village there is a mill on the Sülz. Carl Friedrich von Wiebeking names the courtships on his charter of the Duchy of Berg in 1789 as Bruchagen .

The place is recorded on the topographical survey of the Rhineland from 1817 as Bruchhagen . The Prussian first recording from 1845 shows the residential area under the names Ob., Mittel and Unt. Bruchhagen . From the Prussian new admission of 1892, the place is regularly on measurement table sheets as Obr., Mittel und Unt. Brochhagen recorded.

There was a grinding mill in Mittelbrochhagen until the middle of the 20th century. It had three grinding courses and, like other estates located in the Steinbach district , belonged to the sovereign's domain. The mill on the Sülz was a cameral or compulsory mill, which means that the residents of the associated district were forced to have their fruit ground only there for a fee. From March 22, 1748, Duke Carl Theodor leased the mill to the previous tenant Johann Georg Müller for 24 years. Franz Frielingsdorf and Johann Georg Müller are named as successors. Chief forester Johann Kesseler zu Feld bought the mill from the Prussian government in 1823 after the mill had been publicly offered for sale. Kesseler died on April 27, 1841. The Kesseler heirs sold the mill in 1847. The mill has been owned by the Römer-Kemmerich family since around 1870. The milling operation of the mill was maintained until the middle of the 20th century.

In 1897 a bridge was built over the Sülz near Mittelbrochhagen. In 1933 Oberbrochhagen received a public telephone. During the period of National Socialism , the Bruno Höller family from Mittelbrochhagen was persecuted by the National Socialists.

On June 30, 2015 Brochhagen had 434 residents.
