Oberhof ceiling skirt

For the first time, shortly after 1040, an Oberhof Decchebrugke was named, which according to a document from the Überwasser Monastery (origin of the Überwasserkirche in Münster ) had to pay a fee. At that time (and in some cases up to the 20th century) this Oberhof was owned by the noble noble family vondeckebrock and Droste zu Hülshoff , whose original ancestral seat is there and, according to family tradition, this Oberhof as a free property , i.e. H. without feudal lord , possessed. Because of Deckenbrock since its first mention (1209), the knighthood had their likely Oberhof originally Adel rights have possessed. Even in Carolingian times, men who were fully conscripted had to own at least nine farms . In the Middle Ages, the vondeckebrock family also owned the Detharding (Deiters) and Tor Heyde farms in Everswinkel. She also had considerable other estates in Nordwalde , Telgte , Alverskirchen , Greven and the parishes of Überwasser , St. Mauritz and Handorf, which are now part of Münster .

In 1209 a document from the Überwasser monastery mentions the knight Bernhardus de Thekenbroke as a witness , who probably took part in the third crusade in the entourage of the then bishop of Münster Hermann II von Katzenelnbogen . During the time of his son Johann I (mentioned in a document in 1229 and 1248), the farm was divided into the Grossedeckebrock and Lütke ceilingbrock farms around 1250, which together are said to have been almost 200 hectares in size. Engelbert vondeckebrock (1266–1298) relocated his headquarters to the city of Münster because the now powerful Bishop of Münster failed to fortify it. It was then only occupied by serfs and gradually lost its nobility rights. According to a document from 1301, Lütke ceilingbrock was the property of the Überwasser monastery at that time, from which it was received as a fief to the von ceilingbrock family .

When Bernhard II von Droste zu Hülshoff sold Große ceilingbrock in 1572 for 9,100 thalers , in view of the high purchase price it must have included other goods. In 1775, Clemens August I. von Droste zu Hülshoff , grandfather of the poet Annette von Droste-Hülshoff , bought a large blanket for 5,242 thalers.

In 1933 it was sold by the last male offspring of this family's ancestral home, Werner Freiherr von Droste zu Hülshoff (1872–1945). Most of the property was taken over by the previous tenants.

Today in there peasantry Wester Everswinkel the homestead Lütke Deckenbrock. The former Grossedeckebrock farm is named after its current owner family.

Origin of the noblemen of ceiling brook

The original origin of the noble lords of ceiling brook has not yet been finally clarified. It can be assumed that it is an old dynasty . Numerous lower courtyards are likely to have belonged to the Oberhof ceiling brook, some of which have been proven. The original seat is likely to have been the directly adjacent Borg house, after which Everwin II von Droste zu Handorf , the owner of Grosseeckenbrock at the time, and his son Johann Droste zu Handorf "or zu Borg" (1495–1558) named themselves. The fortified church of St, Magnus von Everswinkel is said to have been founded as an "own church" on its site, which originally belonged to the cathedral chapter of Münster.

The most likely descent of the noblemen voneckenbrock from the noblemen of Steinfurt , who descended from the lords of Meinhövel , the vice rebels of the diocese of Münster. One tribe with this are the noble lords of Münster (Westphalian noble family) , with whom the equality of vondeckebrock is proven by marriage. In a document no.45 from the Überwasser Abbey from 1301, the noble lords of Steinfurt are the owners of both Hülshoff Castle and ceilingbrock with the Aldendorp and Horst farms, which they pledged to the abbess with many other possessions for 600 Marks Munster denarii. Holsenbürger also says that Hof Lütkeeckenbrock came into the possession of the Überwasser Abbey in 1301. On the other hand, the Grosseeckenbrock farm had remained the property of vondeckebrock after him. Bernhard I of Steinfurt was provost of Münster in 1168; Johann I and II vondeckebrock also became servants of the diocese of Münster in the 13th century. Both Bernhard I. vondeckebrock and Rudolf II. Von Steinfurt, the builder of Burgsteinfurt Castle , are said to have participated in the third crusade with Bishop Hermann II. Von Katzenelnbogen . Several possessions belonging to those von Steinfurt and vondeckebrock in Everswinkel, Münster and Drensteinfurt were neighboring. The lords of Steinfurt were bailiffs of the Überwasser monastery; Engelbert vondeckebrock became treasurer of this monastery and his successors were aldermen and councilors of the parish of Überwasser; They were buried in front of the choir of the Überwasserkirche . In the 13th and 14th centuries, the vondeckebrocks also held the hereditary position as Drosten of the cathedral chapter of Münster . It was the highest-ranking honorary position, which at the time required a high nobility background. With Ludolf von Steinfurt, Johann III. vondeckebrock established a separate alliance for the city of Münster in 1338. Thedeckebrock / Droste zu Hülshoff also had other connections in the Meinhövel clan association: As their successors, they provided abbesses and canonesses of the Hohenholte monastery , which was promoted by the noble lords of Münster and founded by their relatives, the noble lords of Bevern (noble family) .

There are also indications for a possible descent from the Counts Tecklenburg, the noble lords of Rheda / von der Lippe or those of Hoerde. From the 13th century onwards there was a relationship with other leading families of the nobility such as B. the Tall One and the Morrien .

Family name ceiling brooch

From the name of the Oberhof ceiling brook derive:

  • the surname of the rural families Lampenbrock and Lütke Deckbrock, named after their farms

There is no relationship between the noble family vondeckebrock / Droste zu Hülshoff and these families with the names ceilingbrock or Lütke ceilingbrock.

Origin of the name

The name was derived from the Low German de Ekenbrock (from oak break). Vinzenz Buntenkötter probably derives it correctly from the original district Hiäkenbrock near today's Lütke ceilingbrock farm. Brock is a low-lying area with puddles of water. In this area, an old settlement is said to have been on the slope above a watercourse.
