The Riefnacken court can be traced back to the 16th century. In the year 1715 Riefnacken is recorded in the map Topographia Ducatus Montani , Blatt Amt Solingen , by Erich Philipp Ploennies with a farm and named as Rifen . This is obviously an abbreviation, according to Brangs. The court belonged to the Honschaft Barl within the office of Solingen. The topographical survey of the Rhineland from 1824 lists the place as Reifnaken and the Prussian first survey from 1844 unlabeled. In the topographic map of the Düsseldorf administrative district from 1871, the place is also recorded without a name.

After the establishment of the Mairien and later mayor's offices at the beginning of the 19th century, Riefnacken belonged to the Merscheid mayor, which was elevated to a town in 1856 and renamed Ohligs in 1891.

In 1815/16 there were 35 people living in the hamlet called Riefnacken , in 1830 41 people . There he was in hallway VIII. Wieveldick. The place, which was categorized as a court town according to the statistics and topography of the administrative district of Düsseldorf , had six residential buildings and eight agricultural buildings at that time. At that time 56 inhabitants lived in the place, two of them Catholic and 54 Evangelical denominations. The municipality and estate district statistics of the Rhine Province list the place in 1871 with nine houses and 51 inhabitants. In the municipality lexicon for the Rhineland province of 1888, ten houses with 63 inhabitants are given for Riefnacken. In 1895 the district had eleven houses with 79 inhabitants.
