It was taxable to the Steinhaus monastery until 1407 and, like Steinhaus , Baur , Kemna (near Oberbarmen) and Ehrenberg, it was probably one of the donations made to the monastery from 1298 by the Bergische Counts . In 1407 the farm was exempted from taxes to the monastery except for a wooden load. In 1547 one or two dwellings are documented.
