The building used to be an oil mill .

history

The oil mill can be traced back to the end of the 17th century. At his request, Johann Hollweg received in 1685 the approval to build the oil mill. In 1715 the mill is listed as Olimühl in the map Topographia Ducatus Montani , Blatt Amt Solingen , by Erich Philipp Ploennies . The topographical survey of the Rhineland from 1824, however, does not record the mill. Around 1840 the mill was converted into a grinding bowl , but it kept its name. The Prussian first recording of 1844 therefore lists the mill as a grinding head. In the topographic map of the Düsseldorf administrative district from 1871, the place is also recorded without a name.

After the Mairien and later mayor's offices were founded at the beginning of the 19th century, the oil mill belonged to the Höhscheid mayor's office .

The municipality and estate district statistics of the Rhine Province list the place in 1871 with two houses and twelve inhabitants. In the municipality lexicon for the Rhineland province of 1888, two houses with eleven inhabitants are given for oil mill . In 1895 the district has two houses with nine inhabitants and belonged to the Protestant parish Rupelrath , in 1905 three houses and nine inhabitants are given.

With the town association of Groß-Solingen in 1929, the oil mill became a district of Solingen. The Kotten was in operation until at least 1933, when it is not known when it was shut down. The former mill building Oelmühle 1 to 3 has been a listed building since 1984 . Today the facility is mainly used as a residential building.
