Roelscheid

Rölscheid is a residential area in Wermelskirchen - Dabringhausen . It is located east of Plettenburg and south of Grunewald on a cul-de-sac to the Linnefetal . The name is derived from the personal name Hrodilo .

On January 13, 1299, Count Wilhelm von Berg announced that the Hof zur Heide belonging to the married couples Leo and Odilia had passed to their heir Nicolaus, brother of the Altenberg monastery , at the Holz farm in Odenthal -Bechen, and through this to the monastery itself. An interest payment from Rölscheid and the Kurmut obligation belonged to this Heider Hof . An old court association is suspected in this context.

In the treasury and tax list of the Bornefeld office from 1469 it says: Item eyn metgen zo Roelscheid .

In 1688 it says: For the property belonging to the court for the wood in Bechen, von Eller made the electorate through his half-man.

After 1777 the Kurmutige Gut was divided several times.

In the original cadastre from 1828 to 1830, the pleats are a total of 56 acres. Today there are mostly residential buildings. The first branch of the Röntgen family has its origin in Rölscheid with Martin Rongen.
