history

The beginnings of a village can only be determined using archaeological means today. Nevertheless, the first written mentions are of particular importance. The church in Tellingstedt can be seen as a lower church of the Meldorfer church. Gaushorn is not mentioned in the texts of the founding time of this church.

Like many other communities in Dithmarschen, Gaushorn is also mentioned in the complaints from 1447 (Michelsen document book p. 45/46). The year 1402 can be named here from the list of the text. It reads there, "... when one wrote fourteen hundred in the other year, on the Wednesday next before the honorable feast, it was called the feast of Christ's corpse, ..." from which May 24, 1402 results.

On April 1, 1934, the parish Tellingstedt was dissolved. All of their villages, village communities and farmers became independent communities / rural communities, including Gaushorn.
