history
The origins of Oelkinghausen lay in the medieval farmers Oelkinghausen in the Schwelm court of the Brandenburg office of Wetter . After the conquest by Napoleon Bonaparte , the county of Mark was taken over by his brother-in-law Joachim Murat on April 24, 1806 together with the previously annexed Duchy of Kleve on the left bank of the Rhine, the Duchy of Berg on the right bank of the Rhine , the counties of Dortmund , Limburg , and the northern part of the Principality of Münster and others Territories united to form the Grand Duchy of Berg .
Soon after the takeover, the French administration in the Grand Duchy began to introduce new and modern administrative structures based on the French model. By August 3, 1806, this municipal reform replaced and unified the old Brandenburg offices and lords. It provided for the creation of departments , arrondissements , cantons and municipalities (called Mairies from the end of 1808) and broke with the old nobility prerogatives in local government. On November 14th, 1808, this process was completed after a reorganization of the first structuring of 1806, the old farmers were often retained and were assigned to the respective Mairies or cantons as rural communities. The peasantry Oelkinghausen was assigned as a rural community to the Mairie Ennepe in the canton of Schwelm in the arrondissement of Hagen .
In 1813 the French withdrew from the Grand Duchy after the defeat in the Battle of Leipzig and from the end of 1813 it fell under the provisional administration of Prussia in the so-called Generalgouvernement between Weser and Rhine , which was finally awarded it by the resolutions of the Congress of Vienna in 1815. With the formation of the Prussian province of Westphalia in 1815, the existing administrative structures were largely retained and converted into Prussian districts , mayorships and municipalities while maintaining the French borders . Oelkinghausen has now become a rural community in the Ennepe mayor of the Hagen district .
