geography

Geographical location

The village of Böminghausen in the municipality of Kirchhundem is located on the western slope of the 496.3 m high mountain called "Böminghauser Köpfchen" on a historical map but called "Buchhagen" on topographical maps. In the south-east lies the approximately 530 m high Dastein, in the south-west a 507 m high northern branch of the Stüvelhagen and in the north the 436.7 m high Königsberg. The valley of the Albaumer Bach, which flows into the Hundem in the neighboring village of Würdinghausen, runs from south to north to the west of the village. The location belongs to the western foothills of the Rothaargebirge.

Neighboring places of Böminghausen are Marmecke in the east, Albaum in the southwest, Flape in the west and Würdinghausen in the north.

history

Böminghausen is one of the few places in the Kirchhundem community that was mentioned in writing before 1300. The first mention can be found in a tithing register of the Rump family, House Wenne (Eslohe) from 1279. The place name can be interpreted as "at the houses of the people of Buni / Buno". The village is located on historical road connections. The Kriegerweg leads over Stüvelhagen to the west from south to north. East of the village runs the "via Francofurtensis", a connection that led from "Bilstein via Kirchhundem, Herrntrop, Würdinghausen through the Rüspe to Laasphe, Wetzlar and further abroad". Barriers located on the Dastein, which are entered as a ground monument in the monuments list of the municipality of Kirchhundem, still bear witness to this long-distance connection. Due to the favorable traffic situation, the carting trade played an important role in the local history. In an appraisal register from 1717, four carters are named for the small town. In the treasury register of 1536, eight taxpayers are named at five farms who had to pay 12¼ guilders to treasure. The surname "Moller" in the treasury registers of the 16th century suggests that a separate mill was operated for the place at times, which was later given up. It is conceivable that this stood at the Albaumer Bach, where the Albaumer Hammer was later built. HERA Hermann Rahmer GmbH & Co. KG is now located at this point, now known as the “Böminghauser Werk”.

Religions

Due to the fact that it has belonged to the Electoral Cologne Duchy of Westphalia for centuries, the population structure of Böminghausen is still predominantly Catholic. Of the 44 inhabitants (as of December 31, 2014), 36 are Roman Catholic, 3 Protestant and 5 are not given information on religious affiliation.

The village belonged to the Catholic parish of Kirchhundem until the foundation of the Albaum branch church in 1898.
