The Hengelborger Bach landscape protection area is located in the former municipality .

history

The area of ​​the municipality of Estern-Büren, consisting of the northern parts of the old estates and Büren farmers, originally belonged to the parish Stadtlohn and, after the Napoleonic era, to the mayor's office Stadtlohn in the Ahaus district founded in 1816. The southern parts of the Estern and Büren peasantry have always belonged to the parish of Gescher, later formed the parishes of Estern and Büren and are now part of the town of Gescher .

With the introduction of the Westphalian rural community order in 1843, the mayor's office Stadtlohn became the Stadtlohn office , to which the five communities Almsick , Estern-Büren, Hengeler-Wendfeld , Hundewick and Wessendorf belonged.

On August 1, 1964, Estern-Büren was merged with Almsick, Hengeler-Wendfeld, Hundewick and Wessendorf to form the parish of parish Stadtlohn , which in turn was incorporated into the town of Stadtlohn in 1969.
