history

Oberscheuren belonged to the Honschaft Rauschendorf, one of four honors that made up the parish of Stieldorf in the Bergisch Amt of Blankenberg . Like Niederscheuren, the village developed as a street village around the Scheurenhof , which formerly belonged to the Merten monastery and is now located in Oberscheuren , the first mention of which is dated 1244. In the course of secularization in the areas on the right bank of the Rhine in 1803, it fell into the possession of a Weyler family and has been called Weylerhof ever since .

After the dissolution of the Duchy of Berg in 1806, Oberscheuren was part of the cadastral or tax community of Rauschendorf in the administrative district of the Oberpleis mayor . In the context of censuses in the first half of the 19th century, Ober- and Niederscheuren were initially recorded together as Scheuren under the name Höfe with 100 inhabitants in 1816 and 110 in 1828. From the 1843 census at the latest, the two villages were separated, each as Hamlet, designated. In 1845/46 Rauschendorf, including Oberscheuren, was incorporated into the newly formed community of Stieldorf.
