history

The estate was first mentioned on May 25, 1036 in the Busdorf document . In that year, Bishop Meinwerk von Paderborn handed over to the Busdorf Canonical Monastery in Paderborn, among other things, the tithes of the Barkhausen Herrenhof, which originated from the episcopal table estate , with the outworks in Oerlinghausen , Eckendorf in today's Leopoldshöhe, Menkhausen in today's Oerlinghausen and the later Meierhöfe in Heepen and Borgsen in Brackwede . With five outworks, the Fronhof Barkhausen was one of the larger episcopal court associations . The main farms in Lower Barkhausen, Eckendorf, Heepen and Sachsenlager on the Tönsberg were the rest and the center of the county Haholt which 1011 in Bishop My work by Henry II. Had been confirmed as heir.

The Vorwerk Oerlinghausen was dissolved before 1200, in its place the Alexander Church was probably built.

In 1814 it was bought by Friedrich Ludwig Tenge . In 1822 he also acquired the Rietberg estate . He is the progenitor of the Westphalian entrepreneurial family Tenge and Tenge-Rietberg . The family built the Tenge mausoleum not far from the Niederbarkhausen estate , where the family members were buried.

Many radical democrats during the pre-March period were among the friends and guests of Friedrich Ludwig Tenge, including Wilhelm Weitling , the brothers Karl and Albert Grün , Friedrich Engels and Hermann Püttmann . Hoffmann von Fallersleben visited Niederbarkhausen repeatedly , who also accompanied Tenge on a trip to Italy in 1844. Many politically persecuted writers found shelter at Tenge in Niederbarkhausen, according to Ferdinand Freiligrath .

“... we now walk forward, pass the ruins of the Antonius Chapel , which is hidden in the bushes on the Tönsberg and surrounded by remnants of old circumvallations , giving this long mountain ridge its name, and finally we come down into the gorge into which the village of Oerlinghausen draws in. If we do not prefer to stop off at the hospitable Gut Barkhausen, which hides its clear walls and the gloomy feudal tower down in the deep valley between its gardens and under high oak tops ... "

- Levin Schücking and Ferdinand Freiligrath : The picturesque and romantic Westphalia . Barmen and Leipzig 1841, p. 68

After the estate became a manor in 1840, during the revolution of 1848/49 there was an attack by around a thousand hired men and farm workers who kidnapped the owners and only released them after concessions.

The estate is owned by the Tenge Edle von Daniels-Spangenberg family.

Manor park

The manor park, which was created before 1895, is characterized by an old stock of trees in the lawns, supplemented by remnants of equipment, such as a fountain basin in the center. The southern and eastern parts of the park mainly consist of lawns with trees on the edge and individual flower beds.

The Holzkampbach, which rises as Grütebach in Oerlinghausen, flows over the grounds of the farm. The " Grüte " nature reserve of the same name connects directly to the park to the south .

building

Stone storage

Probably the core of the 13th to 15th century is what is now a four-storey 14 meter high stone granary , which is also known as a peasant castle . It was renewed around 1870 and increased by one floor. The latter protrudes slightly on a neo-Romanesque arched frieze made of stone. In 1960 the roof structure with the clock tower was renewed to simplify matters. In 2011 the roof was renewed.

The mansion of the estate is a plastered building with classical forms. It was built after a previous building burned down in 1608, probably by Johan Bierbaum. It was changed several times through extensions and alterations in the 18th and 19th centuries.

Another building on the estate is a half-timbered building with a hipped roof, which served as a brewery and dates from 1719.

The Tenge mausoleum, which belongs to the estate, is located approx. 1 km southeast in Oerlinghausen-Wellenbruch. It was built in 1863 in the form of a Doric temple . At the beginning of the 20th century a foyer was added.
