Location of Welpertsiefen in Kürten

Welpertsiefen is a residential area in the municipality of Kürten in the Rheinisch-Bergisches Kreis .

Description and location

Welpertsiefen is located away from local roads in the southwest of the municipality of Kürten on a ridge at a cul-de-sac behind the Hähn district . The eponymous brook Welpertssiefen rises from two sources nearby and flows into the Kollenbach, a tributary of the Sülz .

The name probably comes from the interpretation of the local history association of "wellen" or "wallen" and refers to the two streams between which the place lies.

history

On the Prussian new recording from 1892, the place is recorded as Welpertssiefen . It is regularly recorded as Welpertiefen on measuring table sheets .

In the municipality lexicon for the Rhineland province from 1888, three houses with 13 inhabitants are given.

In 1927 the mayor's office in Kürten was transferred to the office of Kürten. In the Weimar Republic in 1929 the offices of Kürten were merged with the municipalities of Kürten and Bechen and Olpe with the municipalities of Olpe and Wipperfeld to form the office of Kürten. The Wipperfürth district became part of the Rheinisch-Bergisch district on October 1, 1932, with its seat in Bergisch Gladbach .

In 1975 the current municipality of Kürten was established on the basis of the  Cologne Act , to which, in addition to the offices of Kürten, Bechen and Olpe, a sub-area of ​​the city of Bensberg with Dürscheid and the surrounding areas was added.
