history

From the chart of the Duchy of Berg in 1789 by Carl Friedrich von Wiebeking it emerges that Oberberg was part of the Engelsdorf Honschaft in the parish of Kürten at that time . Under the French administration between 1806 and 1813, the Steinbach office was dissolved and Oberberg, then also called Berg , was politically assigned to the Mairie Kürten in the canton of Wipperfürth . In 1816 the Prussians converted the Mairie to the mayor's office in Kürten in the Wipperfürth district .

In 1822, 18 people lived in the place categorized as a courtyard and designated as a mountain . In 1830 the place was also called mountain . In 1845, Oberberg had 14 Catholic residents. Oberberg belonged to the parish of Kürten.

In the list of the Kingdom of Prussia for the 1885 census, Oberberg was listed as the residential area of ​​the rural community of Kürten. At that time three houses with 8 residents were counted. From the  Prussian new admission  from 1893-1896, the place is  regularly recorded as  Oberberg on  measuring table sheets  . In 1905 the place had two houses with 4 inhabitants and belonged to the parish of Biesfeld .
