In 1832, Wald belonged to the Schöller community in the Haan mayor's office (from 1894 in the Gruiten mayor's office ) in the Elberfeld district . The place, categorized as Hof according to the statistics and topography of the Düsseldorf administrative district , was designated as Am Wald and at that time owned a residential building and an agricultural building.

On the map from 1843 the farm is as am Wald , later on a map from 1892 again as a forest . In the 1930s, the place fell into desolation when Kalkwerke H. Oetelshofen GmbH acquired the site and the Osterholz pit expanded.
