history

Römershäuschen is unlabeled on the topographical survey of the Rhineland from 1824 and recorded as Romershäusken on the Prussian first photo from 1843 .

In the 19th century, Römershäuschen belonged to the suburbs of the Kleine Höhe farmers' community in the Hardenberg mayor's office , which was renamed Neviges in 1935 . From 1816 to 1861 it belonged to the Elberfeld district and from 1861 to the old Mettmann district .

Römershäuschen was at the crossroads of an old street , the Alte Kölnische Straße from Cologne via Hilden , Erkrath - Hochdahl , Mettmann - Diepensiepen and Wülfrath - Oberdüssel to Westphalia (today Schanzenweg ), and the Kommunalchaussee built in the 1830s between Elberfeld and Neviges, which later became State road L427 was expanded. At the beginning of the 20th century, a tram line ran through Römershäuschen on the Kommunalchaussee or Landesstraße L427. It was shut down on August 3, 1952.

In the municipality lexicon for the Rhineland province of 1888, a residential house with ten residents is given for Römershäuschen.

Due to the regional reform of North Rhine-Westphalia , Neviges came to the city of Velbert at the beginning of 1975 and the eastern suburbs of Neviges around Römershäuschen were incorporated into Wuppertal.

In the 1980s the place fell into desolation.
