history

Origin of the place

There are two theories about the history of the origin of the place: The first leads the name back to "three houses in the forest" (tres domus in foresto) . This theory is also presented in the local coat of arms. According to recent historical investigations, it can be assumed that this did not mean the area of ​​today's Dreierwalde. The tradition comes from a deed of the 11th century of various farmers in the parish of Rheine . It is certain that Dreierwalde belonged to the Diocese of Osnabrück as part of the Speller Forest . On the other hand, the document reports from Höfen from the area of ​​the diocese of Münster .

The second theory traces the place name back to "Dreyer im Wolde". The following can be read in a Prussian script from 1822:

" The origin of Dreyerwalde is supposed to be derived from the fact that in the past two peasant heirs in a large forest belonged to the parish of Plantlünne, and families gradually built up in the vicinity of this heir who are said to have dealt with turning wooden bowls, hence the initial name, this parish (Dreiherwold), which was subsequently formed for its own purposes, has changed to Dreyerwalde . "

Early history to the 15th century

The area around today's village of Dreierwalder, located in the Speller Forest, was verifiably part of the Osnabrück diocese. In 1236, the Counts of Tecklenburg acquired the Osnabrück Hochvogtei and Dreierwalde and the Speller Forest became part of the County of Tecklenburg . Due to ongoing disputes between Count Nikolaus II. Von Tecklenburg and the powerful neighbors Münster and Osnabrück, the area was lost in 1400 to the bishopric of Münster .

15th to 18th century

The first documentary mention of Dreierwald can be found in an old valuation register from 1498. Dreierwalde is listed as a peasantry in the parish of Plantlünne . In 1509 a church was built and the choir of today's Catholic parish church of St. Anna was built. During the Thirty Years War , the place was sacked by mercenaries in 1623. The emergence of the Bürgererschützenverein is traced back to this event . The first reference to a school in the village comes from the year 1662. The construction of the St. Anne's wayside shrine dates back to the year 1746. An enlargement of the church is started in 1771 at the request of Pastor Burrichter.

Until the beginning of the 19th century, the place belonged to the office of Rheine-Bevergern in the Prince Diocese of Münster .

In the Reichsdeputationshauptschluss of 1803 the bishopric of Münster was finally dissolved. The region and thus Dreierwalde was assigned to the Kingdom of Prussia . In the Tilsit Peace Treaty of 1807, Prussia ceded its possessions from the former bishopric of Münster to Napoleon . Napoleon assigned the area to the Grand Duchy of Berg on the Rhine in 1808 . Dreierwalde belonged to the arrondissement of Lingen in the department of the Ems . In 1811 Dreierwalde finally came directly to the French Empire and was now part of the Département de l'Ems-Supérieur . After Napoleon's defeat in the Battle of Leipzig , the area came back to Prussia in 1813, initially provisionally. After the agreements reached at the Congress of Vienna in 1815 , the region was permanently assigned to the Kingdom of Prussia. Under the Prussian administration, the place belonged to the new province of Westphalia from 1815 and to the district of Tecklenburg from 1816 and thus returned to the Tecklenburger Land .

The mayor's office was attached to the Bevergern office in 1822 . In 1882 the brands were divided .

20th century

At the beginning of the 20th century there was extensive road construction work around Dreierwalde: In 1904 a solid country road was built between Dreierwalde and Rheine , in 1908 a road between Dreierwalde and Hopsten , in 1914 a road to Spelle and in 1926 one to Hörstel. Also in 1926 which was Kraftpost line Rheine-Hopsten Dreierwalde-opened.

Dreierwalde has had electricity for light and power since 1927. In the course of the dissolution of the Bevergern office , Dreierwalde came to Riesenbeck in 1930 .

On April 1, 1932, an area of ​​more than 4 km 2 in the neighboring municipality of Hörstel was taken over.

In 1949 the sports club Brukteria Dreierwalde was founded. The local school was rebuilt in 1956 and expanded in 1964. In 1969 street names were introduced.
