Location of Rosenhecke in Bergisch Gladbach

Rosenhecke is a district in the Bensberg district of Bergisch Gladbach .

history

The name of the settlement, Rosenhecke , takes up the former denomination In der Rosenhecke , which is recorded in the original cadastre southeast of today's Kauler Strasse. The name rose hedge is derived from the Middle High German plant name rose (= rose plant) and the basic word hegge / hecke (= hedge / fence) and describes a hedge made from shrubs of the hedge rose to delimit or fence off fields.

The Bensberg “neighbor role” was revised on October 20, 1622. From this it emerges that the win in the rose hedge was part of the ducal estate and that the residents of Freiheit Bensberg were obliged to keep the fence at the rose hedge in order.

Around 1920 the construction of the small housing estate "Rosenhecke" started according to plans of the Düsseldorf architect Gustav August Munzer .
