Belonging to the Hardenberg farming community Oberste Siebeneick is recorded around 1600 . The name is probably derived from a lane in the forest on which the farm was located.

In the 19th century, Schneis belonged to the Obensiebeneick peasantry and the Dönberg parish 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 .

The place is marked as a snow in the municipality of the parcel cadastre of the Hardenberg mayor's office from 1815/16 . In the municipality lexicon for the province of Rhineland from 1888, two houses with 24 inhabitants are given.

With the municipal reform of 1929, the southeastern part of Obensiebeneick was split off around Schneis and incorporated into the newly founded city of Wuppertal together with southern Dönberg villages, the rest of Obensiebeneick initially remained with Neviges.
