history

In 1500 a Zum Stein farm was mentioned in a document. This mention probably refers to the stone courtyard. A Steintgens break at Scheven is mentioned in 1572.

The place is marked on the topographical survey of the Rhineland from 1824 and on the Prussian first survey from 1843 as Steinges . The place bears the name Steintges on measuring table sheets from the early 20th century .

Steingeshof was close to a regional old road , the Alte Kölnische Strasse from Cologne via Hilden , Erkrath - Hochdahl , Mettmann - Diepensiepen and Wülfrath - Oberdüssel to Westphalia. Today's Schanzenweg follows the old route.

In the 19th century Steingeshof belonged to the suburbs of the Obensiebeneick farming community of the Hardenberg mayor , which was renamed Neviges in 1935 . From 1816 to 1861 it belonged to the Elberfeld district and from 1861 to the old Mettmann district .

In 1888 six people lived in one house in Steingeshof. The place was called Steintges at the time .

Due to the regional reform of North Rhine-Westphalia , Neviges came to the city of Velbert at the beginning of 1975 and the eastern suburbs of Neviges around Steingeshof were incorporated into Wuppertal.
