The Dielingen-Wehdem office was an office in the former Lübbecke district in North Rhine-Westphalia with its seat in Dielingen . The office was dissolved by the Bielefeld Act on December 31, 1972. The legal successor to the office is the municipality of Stemwede .

The office was on the southern slope of the Stemweder mountain and bordered the state of Lower Saxony in the north and west .

At the time of the dissolution, the office had 9,747 inhabitants on an area of ​​109.99 km² and was divided into the eight communities Arrenkamp , Dielingen , Drone , Haldem , Oppendorf , Oppenwehe , Wehdem and Westrup . Together with the municipalities of the Levern office , the municipalities form the new municipality of Stemwede. The office was dominated by agriculture.

In 1843 the two offices of Dielingen (from Arrenkamp, ​​Dielingen, Drone and Haldem) and Wehdem (from Oppendorf, Oppenwehe, Wehdem and Westrup) were formed in the Lübbecke district. The two offices were administered by the Dielingen bailiff from the start. With an east-west extension of over 20 kilometers, the administration in Dielingen was difficult for the citizens of Oppendorf and Oppenwehe to reach at the time. Telephone was not available at the time. On April 1, 1936, both offices were formally merged to form the Dielingen-Wehdem office based in Dielingen.

The oldest sports club in office is TuS Dielingen from 1899.
