The court , first mentioned in a document in 1446, was an allod of the Bergische Counts / Dukes . He was in charge of his own court association and, as the place of jurisdiction, was responsible for the lower jurisdiction .

He took over the function of Oberhof in 1367, after Count Adolf V donated the previous Bergische Oberhof Steinhaus with its chapel and the associated income to the Order of the Cross Brothers in 1296 . Mosblech then took over its duties as court court and the supremacy of the surrounding farms subject to tax, including Hengsten , Sondern , Seringhausen , Berg, Walbrecken , Spieckern , Mesenholl , Herbringhausen , Hastberg , Hardtbach , Frielinghausen , Wefelpütt , Windgassen , Olpe , Laaken , Scharpenack , Birken , Baur , Marscheid , Ronsdorf , Holthausen , Heidt , Boxberg , Hammesberg , Lichtscheid , Dorn , Erbschlö , Huckenbach , Blombach , Sporkert , Stall and Kottsiepen belonged.

In the Middle Ages, the farm was located on the Heerweg Cologne – Dortmund , an important medieval trade, pilgrimage and military route between the Rhine and Westphalia , which crossed the Wupper on the nearby Beyenburger Bridge .
