Ambühren is a district of the city of Cloppenburg in the district of the same name in Lower Saxony .
The small farming community is located in the western part of the Cloppenburg area and has exactly 350 inhabitants as of June 1, 2004. In 1933 the farmers in Ambühren came from the municipality of Krapendorf to the city of Cloppenburg as part of the administrative reform . Four farms that still exist today, even though the names of the owners have changed, formed the farming community over 300 years ago. The names of the farming families are: Künken, Röbken, Bullermann and Bahlmann.
Size, bondage, duties and services, change of sex and the end of bondage are recorded in the Cloppenburg office register from 1473, the personal appraisal register of the parish Krapendorf from 1498, the appraisal registers of the office Cloppenburg from 1535 and 1549, the "Kerspelschatzungen" from 1578/79 and 1629, as well as in the accounts of the rent masters von Heiden (1699) and Volbier (1707 and 1709).
In 1473 Symer, his wife and his servant were settled on the Ganzerbe Künken -stelle (Möller). Künnecke does not appear until 1578 and pays two Taler parish treasury. Wessel to Ambühren and his two sons live on the farm of the heir Röbke (Hoppe) in 1473. In 1629 Robbecke became the new owner.
Halberbe Bullermann (Moormann) is inhabited in 1473 by De Lange Tebbe, his housewife, a servant and a maid. After the Thirty Years' War , the place is called "desolate legacy". In 1700, Johann Bullermann is mentioned for the first time as the owner. In 1700 he paid two Riddergulden service fees . In 1473 the place was first mentioned as Banemann. In 1535 Hermann Banemann is the owner of the farm, the name of which is changed to Bahlmann around 1750.
The four oldest families of Ambührens have all been in possession of their jobs for over 500 years. The landmark of Ambührens is the "Big Stone", which stands high up on the edge of the Soestental. This granite boulder, weighing over 125 tons, was lifted under the most difficult conditions after the end of the First World War and converted into a war memorial for those who died in both world wars , both for the farmers of Ambühren and Schmertheim.
Ambühren lies on the edge of the Soestetal nature reserve and is a popular destination for walkers and cyclists. The farmers' associations Ambühren and Schmertheim have now merged into one unit, which is particularly evident in the shooting club ("Gut Ziel Ambühren") and in community life.
