History and description of the place
Druffel was first mentioned in 1082 in the Herzebrocker Heberolle . The name comes from the Low German word drubbel , which means group, quantity or grape . There was a tax obligation from one or more farms to the Herzebrock monastery . Belonging to the County of Rietberg was recorded in 1237. After the Congress of Vienna in 1814/1815, Druffel, which at the time consisted of 74 houses with 468 inhabitants, became an independent municipality in the Wiedenbrück district , which was founded in 1816. In 1843, Druffel became one of the eight municipalities of the Rietberg office within the framework of the rural municipality code of the province of Westphalia .
At the beginning Druffel did not have a real town center. The development is based on the Postweg from Münster to Paderborn , today's street “Am Postdamm” and the continuing “Druffeler Straße”. The postal route had no connection to the new connection between Münster and Paderborn established by the Prussians , today's B 64 . The construction of the Druffeler Straße between B 64 and Postweg was only started in 1914 and completed in 1921.
After the original Druffelsmeier farm was demolished in 1929, the development of the town center began through the sale of land. In 1950 the "Druffelsmeier development plan" was drawn up, which included the area of what is now the Nordring. After the farmers Wittreck and Kuper made settlement land available a few years later, the town center was expanded to include today's Kreutzbreede. From 1964 the church side (today “Am Rothenbach”) was also built on. In the 2000s, work began on expanding the town center towards the west. Breedeweg was extended in the direction of Druffeler Straße. After about half of the available space had been built on, the connection was completed in 2018.
In 1998 Druffel took part in the competition " Our village should be more beautiful " and achieved third place.
Incorporation
On January 1, 1970 Druffel was incorporated into the city of Rietberg.
Druffel school history
The first school lessons were given in Druffel in 1786. The schoolmaster Johann Hermann Thewes came in the afternoon as a hiking teacher from Neuenkirchen to Druffel and taught the schoolchildren in a still existing half-timbered house ⊙ at today's northern entrance to the town.
In 1820 the first school building was built on the Druffelsmeier farm. It was a very modest building, the classroom is said to have been only 14 m². Above the entrance was the slogan: "If you can't do the ABC, stop by this man". From 1828 Druffel had his own teacher, until then Druffel was still supplied from Neuenkirchen. At the time Druffel had 473 residents.
Since the school building was too small, on June 7, 1856, the community purchased a 5737 m² plot of land for 120 thalers from farmer Wittreck. The property stretched from today's “Am Rothenbach” street to today's “Druffeler Straße”. An old Kötterhaus was bought in Westerwiehe , demolished and rebuilt in Druffel ⊙ . For this purpose a loan of 1.1 thalers was taken out from the "Provinzial-Hilfs-Kassel". The school building had a classroom and a teacher's apartment.
Towards the end of the 19th century the number of students had risen to 120 and the school building was again too small. In 1895, at a combined school and community board meeting, which was also attended by two representatives of the Royal Government of Minden, the Royal District School Inspector and the Local School Inspector from Neuenkirchen, the decision was made to build a massive school building with two classrooms and two teacher's apartments. However, it took until March 1900 for construction to begin. The Neuenkirchen master carpenter Kriener received the order to build the building for 16,684 marks. The municipality of Druffel had to pay 6,684 marks as well as the costs for the interior decoration. The construction started in May was shut down at the beginning of July, as the construction manager had determined that the foundation walls ⊙ were not in the right place. So another 275 m² of floor space was acquired, which was used as a second teacher's garden. The foundation stone was laid on September 10, 1900 and on October 16, 1901 125 school children moved into the new school. On January 1, 1902, a second teacher was hired for the first time. It was not until October 1, 1949 that a third teaching post was established.
After almost 60 years, this school building became too small again. On October 27, 1959, construction of the fourth Druffel school building ⊙ began. The total costs amounted to 380,000 DM. The state took over 260,000 DM and the district 14,000 DM. On June 23, 1960 the laying of the foundation stone and the topping-out ceremony were celebrated. After the Easter break in 1961, school operations began in the new building with a total of 121 children in three classes, each with two years. The inauguration took place on October 11, 1961. After the Easter break in 1963, the school was run in four classes. On October 1, 1965, the fourth teacher was also hired.
The end of the Druffel school history was heralded with the new school law, which the state government passed on February 29, 1968. This law abolished the elementary school and replaced it with elementary and secondary schools . This was implemented in 1969. On October 11, 1969, the then headmaster Ridder was informed that classes for grades 5 to 9 would take place in Neuenkirchen from the first day after the autumn break on October 13 and that he would be transferred as director to the newly established Neuenkirchen elementary school. Schools in grades 1 to 4 were continued by two teachers who each taught two years together in one classroom. Although all districts were promised their own elementary school when the municipalities were merged to form the town of Rietberg, the elementary school in Druffel was closed at the end of the 1972/73 school year because, according to the school law, no “regular school operation” was possible.
Community center
The vacant building was used by different groups in the following years. After the state of North Rhine-Westphalia had promised to convert former schools into town houses , the Rietberg city council decided on August 27, 1980 to convert the Druffeler school into a town house. The laying of the foundation stone for the conversion to the community center took place in 1981. The renovation costs amounted to 890,000 DM, of which 382,500 DM were taken over by the state. The management of the community center was transferred from the city of Rietberg to the community center Druffel eV, which consists of representatives of the Druffel clubs and Druffel citizens. The Druffel Kindergarten St. Gabriel has been located in the outbuilding of the community center since 1986 and is attended by a maximum of 25 children. In addition to the multi-purpose room and the farmhouse parlor, the community center also houses the shooting range for the St. Johannes Rifle Brotherhood and the group room for the KLJB Druffel. At the end of the corridor to the rifle club there is a memorial for those who fell in the First and Second World Wars.
Sacred Heart Church
The Herz-Jesu-Kirche in Druffel is a branch church of the St. Margareta community in Neuenkirchen . Church and congregation belong to the pastoral association of the Neuenkirchen parish in the Rietberg-Wiedenbrück deanery of the Archdiocese of Paderborn .

coat of arms
The Druffeler coat of arms represents a group of three oaks that form a common crown. The coat of arms can be found several times in Druffel. In 1964, three oaks in the shape of the coat of arms were planted by students on the lawn in front of the schoolyard. In addition, when the parking lot was redesigned, three oaks were planted near the barbecue hut. The coat of arms can be seen on a boulder in front of it. The third time you can find the coat of arms on the welcome sign at the Druffeler Church. A flowerbed in the shape of the coat of arms was planted at the corner of Druffeler Strasse and Am Postdamm. The latest Druffeler coat of arms is at the entrance of the community center.

societies
St. Johannes Rifle Brotherhood
On June 24, 1933, instead of their name day, some Druffelers celebrated the first local rifle festival in Druffel. Due to the Second World War, there was a break of 16 years until the second festival, which again took place at the Vinnemeier farm. Since the popularity of the population grew stronger, the first official general assembly was held on February 8, 1951 in the restaurant Theising. Since the shooting festival was celebrated on St. John's name day, the name “St. Johannes-Schützenbruderschaft “close. In 1962 the date of the shooting festival was moved to Whitsun . In 1963 the festival moved to the center of the village, where it is still celebrated today.
The 90 members that the brotherhood had in 1951 grew to 480 shooters and 80 young shooters in 2014, in their own company since 1962. In 2004 a company was founded for the shooting brothers from the neighboring town of Lintel.
Druffeler sports community
After 122 citizens supported the establishment of a sports club in a signature campaign in November, the "Druffeler Sportgemeinschaft von 1969 eV (DSG)" was founded on December 28, 1969 and entered in the club register at the beginning of 1970. After the construction of the sports facility on the Westring was completed, the sports club started playing for the 1971/72 season. The changing rooms were in an extension of the Theising restaurant. In 1982, the company moved to the Druffeler Bürgerhaus, which is over half a kilometer from the sports facility. For the 25th anniversary in 1994, the new sports home, which is located directly on the two grass pitches, was ready to move into. Until 1982 the sports community was a pure football club. With the establishment of the gymnastics department, the term sports community was brought to life.
