history

White Horse was part of the Vilkerath Honschaft in the parish of Overath until the 19th century . In 1775 the place appears on the ocular plan of the loci quaestionis between Gerhard Hamm and Joh. Heinrich Müller zu Hohkeppel in Overath of the sworn surveyor JH Schlieper under the name Pferdges or Henrich Müller Hoff .

The place was on Heidenstrasse , an important medieval old highway from Cologne via Kassel to Leipzig . Today's state road 84 follows the route of the old high path through Hohkeppel.

In 1822 5 people lived in the place categorized as a (single) house , which after the Napoleonic occupation belonged to the Overath mayor in the Mülheim am Rhein district . The place, which was categorized as an isolated house in 1845 according to the overview of the government district of Cologne , had a residential building with three residents at that time, all of whom were Catholic. The municipality and estate district statistics of the Rhine Province list Weißenpferdchen in 1871 with one house and seven residents. In the parish dictionary for the Rhineland province from 1888, a house with seven inhabitants is given for white horses. In 1895 the place had a house with six inhabitants and belonged denominationally to the Catholic parish of Hohkeppel, in 1905 one house and six inhabitants are given.

On the basis of Section 14 of the Cologne Act , several Overather suburbs were re-grouped into the municipality of Lindlar in 1975, including white horses.
