history

Remshagen was first mentioned in a document in 1413 as rempshaen .

In the Middle Ages, Remshagen was the center of the homonymous honor in the Lindlar parish . Birken, Timberg, Fenke and Rübach belonged to the honors .

The Honschaft Remshagen belonged to the office Steinbach in the Duchy of Berg until 1621 and was given to the Lords of Schwarzenberg as a fief together with the Honschaft Leppe . Remshagen was a so-called free court under the rule of Gimborn .

The village of Remshagen belonged to the imperial rule of Gimborn-Neustadt until 1806 . After belonging to the Grand Duchy of Berg (1806-1813) and a provisional transitional administration , the region came to the Kingdom of Prussia in 1815 on the basis of the agreements made at the Congress of Vienna . Under the Prussian administration, the place first belonged to the Gimborn district (1816–1825) and then to the Gummersbach district in the Rhine Province . In 1843 Remshagen had 165 inhabitants who lived in 36 houses; 84 of the residents were Catholic, 81 Protestant.

After the First World War , a smuggling route led from occupied Lindlar via Horpe and Remshagen to the unoccupied part of Germany. (see Lindlar )

Several quarries are characteristic of the village, but they have now been closed.

Until the municipal reorganization in 1975, the place belonged to the municipality of Gimborn . Due to Section 14 of the Cologne Act , the Remshagen district was incorporated into Lindlar.

It is also worth mentioning the very distinctive village life with fire brigade festival, soccer field festival, summer festival, St. Martin's procession, Christmas tree decorations, senior Santa Claus celebrations, father-child tents and all kinds of other activities that strongly support the community's cohesion in the village.
