history

The name Obersteinbach refers to the founding of the medieval settlement, which was first documented in 1351 as Steynenbach / Steynbach . The Steinbach , which runs between Obersteinbach and Untersteinbach , gave its name to the establishment of the farm . After a second farmyard had formed next to the original settlement core, the settlement name was supplemented with the words upper / lower to distinguish it .

Under French administration between 1806 and 1813, the Porz office was dissolved and the Dürscheid honors , to which Obersteinbach also belonged, was politically assigned to Mairie Bensberg in the Mülheim am Rhein arrondissement . In 1816 the Prussians converted the Mairie to the mayor's office in Bensberg in the Mülheim am Rhein district . In 1845 Obersteinbach had 32 Catholic residents.

In the list of the Kingdom of Prussia for the 1885 census, Obersteinbach was listed as a place of residence for the rural community of Bensberg in the Mülheim am Rhein district. At that time, 11 houses with 41 residents were counted. In 1905 the two settlements had 16 residential buildings and 104 residents.
