Eikamp is a district in Oberodenthal in the municipality of Odenthal. According to a document from 1294, the Eikamp estate existed at that time. The name means willow lying alone. Gerhard von Eykamp and his son Arnold lived here.

The place was temporarily divided into Obereikamp and Untereikamp. The border between the Kürtener and the Odenthaler section ran along the Schallemicher Straße to today's Bundesstraße 506, which was then also part of the municipal boundary. Untereikamp was located in the Kürten area in the south of today's street Zur Alten Linde.

Since 1910 Eikamp (Odenthaler Teil) belonged to the rectorate Herrenstrunden.

In 1927 the mayor's office of Kürten was transferred to the Kürten office. 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 Kürten office. The district of Wipperfürth merged on October 1, 1932 into the Rheinisch-Bergische district with its headquarters in Bergisch Gladbach. In 1975 the Kürten part of the village came to the municipality of Odenthal in the Rheinisch-Bergisch district due to the Cologne law.
