Location of Stöckerberg in Solingen

Stöckerberg is a residential area in the mountainous city ​​of Solingen .

geography

The Hofschaft Stöckerberg extends from the valley slope west of Stöcken up to the ridge on which the Hassel and Kuller Strasse run, and is thus located in the Solingen district of Mitte . The valley slopes fall to the banks of the Wupper at up to 110 meters above sea ​​level , Stöckerberg is about 230 meters above sea level on Cronenberger Straße (Landesstraße 427), which leads from Kohlfurth to Solingen-Mitte. To the north of Stöckerberg is the Bärenloch green and leisure facility and the Bärenloch garbage dump , to the east is the one that was formerly owned by the Rasspe company used industrial complex.

etymology

The name of the living space is derived from the neighboring yard of Stöcken. This probably means the root stocks left behind after felling or clearing , where the yard was created. The Stöckerberg is therefore the mountain above Stöcken. This field name Stöcken also occurs in modifications elsewhere, for example in Stockden in Remscheid or in Stockdum in Solingen- Gräfrath .

history

In the map series Topographia Ducatus Montani by Erich Philipp Ploennies from 1715 the place is not yet recorded, but the road connection between the Kohlfurth and Solingen, which was expanded under Prussia to the provincial road Elberfeld – Hitdorf . The city of Solingen was partially supplied with coal on this road connection . The settlement on the Stöckerberg was probably related to the coal transports. The topographical survey of the Rhineland from 1824 shows that the residential area is already being built, but together with the neighboring residential area , it is referred to as Stoecken ; likewise the Prussian first recording from 1844. In the topographical map of the Düsseldorf administrative district from 1871, only the residential area Stöcken is labeled and recorded.

After the establishment of the Mairien and later mayor's offices, Stöckerberg belonged as a border town to both the Dorp mayor's office (south of Provinzialstrasse) and Graefrath's mayor's office (north of the road). The Dorper part was the older and bigger and had 37 inhabitants in 1815/16. The place, which was categorized as a Hofstadt according to the statistics and topography of the Düsseldorf administrative district , had three residential buildings in 1832. At that time, 30 residents lived in the village, all of whom were evangelicals. The municipality and estate district statistics of the Rhine Province list the place in 1871 with seven houses and 82 inhabitants.

In the municipality encyclopedia for the Rhineland province of 1888, settlement areas of Stöckerberg in the Gräfrath urban area are also mentioned for the first time. 24 houses and 178 inhabitants are given for the Dorper suburb, two houses with 26 inhabitants for the Gräfrath suburb. The mayor's office or city of Dorp was merged with the city of Solingen in 1889. This made the Dorper Stöckerberg a district of Solingen. In 1895 the district had 30 houses (26 in Solingen and four in Gräfrath) with 260 inhabitants (222 in Solingen, 38 in Gräfrath), in 1905 seven houses and 80 inhabitants were only given for the Graefrath district.

With the town union of Groß-Solingen in 1929, the whole of Stöckerberg became a district of Solingen.
