history

In the 19th century Neuensonnenschein belonged to the outlying villages of the farmers and the parish Dönberg in the mayor's office of Hardenberg , which was renamed Neviges in 1935 . From 1816 to 1861 it belonged to the Elberfeld district and from 1861 to the old Mettmann district . At that time the place was right on the border between the farmers and the Uellendahler Rotte of the Lord Mayor of Elberfeld .

The place is marked unlabeled on the topographical survey of the Rhineland from 1824 and on the Prussian first survey from 1843. Up until the middle of the 20th century, the place is labeled as new sunshine on measuring table sheets .

In the municipality lexicon for the Rhineland province of 1888, a house with 14 inhabitants is specified for new sunshine.

At Neuensonnenschein a coal path ran from Sprockhövel to Elberfeld (here today's Westfalenweg ), on which hard coal was transported from the mines in the southern Ruhr area to the factories in Wuppertal in the late 18th century and in the first half of the 19th century Was the industrial heart of the region.

With the municipal reform of 1929, the southern part of Dönberg was split off from Neviges and incorporated into the newly founded city of Wuppertal with other Neviges villages outside Dönberg, including Neuensonnenschein. The city boundary between Wuppertal and Neviges ran north of Neuensonnenschein until 1975, and immediately south of it that from Neviges to Elberfeld until 1929. As a result of the regional reform of North Rhine-Westphalia , Neviges came to the city of Velbert at the beginning of 1975 and the rest of the Dönberg was also incorporated into Wuppertal. As a result, Neuensonnenschein lost its borderline position.
