history

A special feature in Gröblingen is an old small chapel, which was built in 1688 as a chapel of Our Lady. It is a baroque building with a neo-Romanesque extension from 1904. It was donated by the linen dealer and mayor of Warendorf Heinrich Kleine (1630–1700), who was married to Getrudis Zurstrassen from Warendorf for the first time. The coat of arms of the Zurstrassen family is in the church window of the chapel from 1688 (ht. Sacristy) of the church building from 1904. The newer church also has a rose window with the coat of arms of Zurstrasse above the entrance. This is heraldically extended by the coat of arms of the Belgian Baron Louis Zurstrassen (1892–1971), who was raised to hereditary nobility by the Belgian King Baudouin in 1955. He donated the window after his extensive renovation of the church in 1954/55.

On June 24, 1969, Sassenberg received the right to include the community of Gröblingen in the city area.
