Location of Sülberg in North Rhine-Westphalia

As part of the formerly independent municipality of Ihmert, Sülberg has been part of the town of Hemer in North Rhine-Westphalia since January 1st, 1975 . The settlement is off the Ihmert valley between Johannistal and Bredenbruch in the east and Ihmerterbach and Holmecke in the south on the border with Iserlohn . The forest area is designated as a landscape protection area.

The place was first mentioned as Sullberghe in the 13th century. However, the first settlement, a farm, is only proven around 1500. In 1730 there were 14 residents in Sülberg, and in 1885 there were 31 residents.

The name Sülberg allows two interpretations of the origin of the name. On the one hand the name could stand for a "boggy mountain", on the other hand sul could be understood as a court column. In this case, judicial duels could previously have taken place on the Sülberg, as they are also believed to be possible for the area around Holmecke .
