history

Schraffenberg was first mentioned in 1279 as Schraffinberg , in 1461 it was mentioned as Schraffenberg . The defining word is probably an adjectival formation to mhd. Schraff in the meaning of " rugged rock ".

The map Topographia Ducatus Montani from 1715 shows a farm under the name Schraffenberg . In the 18th century, the place belonged to the parish of Leichlingen in the Bergisches Amt Miselohe . The topographical survey of the Rhineland from 1824 lists it as Schraffenberg , as does the Leichlinger municipality map from 1830. From the Prussian new survey of 1892, the place is regularly recorded on measuring table sheets as Schraffenberg .

In 1815/16 the place had 15 inhabitants, also in 1830. In 1832 Schraffeberg belonged to the mayor's office of Leichlingen . The place, which was categorized as arable property according to the statistics and topography of the Düsseldorf administrative district , had a residential house and three agricultural buildings at that time. At that time there were 12 people living in the village, three of whom were Catholic and nine were Protestant. In 1867 the Gruiten – Cologne – Mülheim railway line was opened east of the town.

The municipality and estate district statistics of the Rhine Province lists Schraffenberg in 1871 with one house and seven residents. In the municipality lexicon for the Rhineland province in 1885, two houses with 16 inhabitants are given. In 1895 the place had a house with nine inhabitants, also in 1905.

Until the end of the 19th century, Schraffenberg had an independent location. In the first third of the 20th century, the first housing estate was built north of the village along the street Am Schraffenberg . From the middle of the 20th century, apartment buildings were built west of the courtyard. The original farm was managed until 1953 and, after being used as a shelter for the homeless, was finally dismantled in 1959 and also built over. At the same time, the L 294 state road was laid out on the site .

Today the original settlement is on the edge of the closed residential and commercial development of the Leichlingen core town.
