history

The name “Berlingsen”, in old documents “Berlichusen” or “Berninchusen”, later “Berlinghausen”, should come from the old Saxon “berth” = “shiny”, according to Prof. Holthausen. The oldest known landlord for Berlingsen with the "Dalahof" was the imperial abbey of Fulda , which was directly subordinate to the Pope and was founded in 744 AD by Boniface . It is not known for certain when the monastery came into possession of the land in Berlingsen. Not least because of its founder Bonifatius, the monastery was widely known and recognized, so that in the first decades after his death there were donations from all parts of Germany, including some farms from Westphalia , which were used to maintain the monastery. In the Carolingian period, Fulda owned 15,000 hooves. The size of the hooves varies according to the landscape, 30 to 60 acres, thus 12 to 20 hectares, sufficient for cultivation for a family.

In particular, more distant goods, court associations such as in the Soest area, were under the management of a so-called Fronhof, a manor, like the "Dalahof" was one, with subordinate courtyards in Berlingsen, Büecke and Körbecke, called Kredteschehof.

On November 6, 1231, the Dahlhof with the courtyards of Berlingsen, Büecke and Körbecke was transferred from the Fulda Monastery to the Oelinghausen Monastery. Berninchusen (= Berlingsen) is mentioned for the first time in the document.

The second written mention of Berlingen comes from October 9, 1282: before Bishop Conrad von Osnabrück , citizens of Wiedenbrück waived their claims to a hoof in Berlingsen in the parish of Körbecke in favor of the Himmelpforten monastery . This document refers to the later Hof Drees-Linnhoff.

On July 1, 1969, Berlingsen was incorporated into the Möhnesee community.
