The official parish emerged from the possessions of the Counts of Roden , who had Ricklingen Castle built as a moated castle around 1225 . In 1333 the area passed into Guelph ownership, but was often pledged in the following time. In 1852 the office was enlarged to include the Vogtei Basse , which previously belonged to the Neustadt am Rübenberge office . In 1859 it opened up in the Neustadt am Rübenberge office.
