history
The formerly rural town of Brünninghausen emerged in the vicinity of the Brünninghausen house . This property was not originally at its current location, but near the Pieper intersection and belonged to the von Brünninghausen family until around 1300 . Later owners of the old castle were the Nordkerke family, to whom the Nordkirchenstrasse still reminds us today. The family built the moated castle Brünninghausen in 1350. The von Romberg family took over the entire property and built the great castle. In the 19th century, the classicist mansion was built, to which the mighty corner tower from 1571 was included. The house was called "Schloss Romberg" by the population. With the exception of the gatehouse and the ice cellar, it was destroyed by bombs during the Second World War. The Torhaus Rombergpark served as a defensive building and was the entrance to the castle at that time.
Gisbert von Romberg I had a botanical garden, today's Rombergpark, laid out in the vicinity of the palace . With trees over a hundred years old, the garden survived the Second World War well. A hotel and the former building of the Wihoga hotel management school, which built a new building not far from Romberg Park, stood on the site of the manor house until 2008. The entire site was acquired by the city of Dortmund in 1927 and is now used as a popular local recreation area. The park and the structural remains are first quality architectural monuments and are under monument protection. In the botanical garden of the park 1938 were Feuersteinbeil from the Stone Age found. It is exhibited in the Museum for Art and Cultural History of the City of Dortmund.
In addition to Brünninghausen Castle, there were two larger properties and associated cottages in the area of today's Brünninghausen. The Brünninghauser Schultenhof, not to be confused with the Schultenhof in Renninghausen , burned down in 1908. It was not far from the intersection on the streets Hörde - Annen - Dortmund - Herdecke . The farm belonged to the noble seat of Brünninghausen, later to the Mellinghaus farm, and was the largest in the village. The lords of Mallinckrodt had been the landlords since 1419 . At first the Brünninghausen family did not succeed in buying back the farm. The Schultenhof, a fief of the noblemen of Volmestein and in succession of the lords of the Recke , did not return to the Romberg family (Conrad von Romberg) until 1575.
The original seat of the Lords of Brünninghausen stood on the site of the Mellinghaus farm. Later a monk named Henze ran the farm here. That is why it was called Mönchshof back then. In 1583 the farm became the property of Dietrich Mellinghaus . Dietrich was murdered by Spanish mercenaries in 1622 while trying to retrieve the horses stolen by the Spanish. In 1808 Napoleon passed a law to liberate the peasants. But it was not until 1856 that the Mellinghaus family was able to acquire the farm by replacing it with the Romberg family. Of the new courtyard buildings built in 1821, the house and barn were still standing at Hagener Straße 16 until 2005, but these buildings have now given way to a local supply market run by Lidl .
Mining began early on in the Brünninghauser area . The coal was originally mined in tunnels. The most famous mine was the Glückauf Erbstollen mine . Civil engineering was carried out on the Glückaufsegen colliery from 1840 until it was finally closed on May 15, 1926.
