history

The first documented mention was Buldern as Hof Bunhlaron in 889, as Selbiger another with 30 the Fronhof Olfen impaired farms by Bishop Wolf Helm of Munster the Werden Abbey ( food ) were given. Bunhlaron is probably made up of the Low German word Laar ( Anger ) and the prefix Bunh . Bunh is optionally interpreted as the name of the landlord at that time ("Weiden des Buno") or as a derivative of bugina (Bogenbach). Later the name changed to Buldern via Bulleren .

The parish of St. Pankratius was first mentioned in the 12th century. The "old church" also dates from this time. This church, together with the main courtyard, formed the core of the Drubbel settlement .

Until 1803 Buldern belonged to the Prince Diocese of Münster , was briefly (until 1806) under the Duke of Croÿ , then became the property of the Dukes of Arenberg . After the community was under French sovereignty from 1811 , it was finally assigned to the Prussian province of Westphalia ( Coesfeld district ) in 1815.

In 1767, through marriage, the Buldern Castle became the property of the Barons von Romberg , whose family member Gisbert von Romberg was the model for the great Bomberg .

Due to great military resistance against the advancing allies , Buldern was badly destroyed shortly before the end of the Second World War. After heavy fighting, Buldern was occupied by Allied troops on March 30th. The sad balance of Nazi rule and war: 101 dead, 53 missing, over 60 destroyed houses, more than 100 families are homeless.

In 1951 Konrad Lorenz and Erich von Holst as well as Irenäus Eibl-Eibesfeldt , Ilse Prechtl and Wolfgang Schleidt set up the Max Planck Research Center for Comparative Behavioral Research in Buldern (Westphalia) in the moated castle of Baron Gisbert Friedrich Christian von Romberg. After the early death of the landlord in June 1952, there were conflicts with the heirs, who were more interested in hunting. These activities were inconsistent with the researchers' behavioral field studies. The Max Planck Institute for Behavioral Physiology in Seewiesen emerged from the research center .

Buldern was enlarged on July 1, 1969 to include the former municipality of Hiddingsel and parts of the municipality of Limbergen . On January 1, 1975, Buldern became part of the city of Dülmen as part of the municipal reorganization .

Every year on Easter Sunday, Buldern is the venue for the Easter bunny .
