Etymology and history
Upper Arrenberg is recorded on the Topographia Ducatus Montani by Erich Philipp Ploennies from 1715 or Arrenberg . The location is recorded on the topographical survey of the Rhineland from 1824 and on the Prussian first survey from 1843, but the inscription does not distinguish it from the northern Arrenberg.
In 1832 the place belonged to the Steinbeck and Arrenberger Rotte of the rural outskirts of the parish and the city of Elberfeld. The place, which was categorized as a hamlet according to the statistics and topography of the Düsseldorf administrative district , had five residential buildings and eleven agricultural buildings at that time. At that time, 38 people lived in the village, all of them Protestant faith. No population is given for 1815/16.
Around 1920, the southern part of the area was taken over by the expanding urban Elberfelder Schlachthof am Arrenberg and the settlement was demolished. The northern part was built on with houses and between 1878 and 1882 Viehhofstraße was built through the village.
