Warburg [ ˈvaːɐ̯bʊʁk ] is a town in the Höxter district in the east of the German state of North Rhine-Westphalia . It is a medium-sized center and with around 23,000 inhabitants the largest city on the Warburger Börde .
Warburg was first mentioned in writing around 1010; the first mention of the city as a closed place comes from the year 1036. In the Middle Ages Warburg belonged to the Westphalian Hanseatic League . From 1815 to 1974 the city was the seat of the Warburg district . Since March 19, 2012 Warburg has been allowed to use the official addition of Hanseatic City .
The cityscape is characterized by historical buildings, stone and half-timbered houses and the location on a ridge. Warburg is also known as the Rothenburg of Westphalia due to the largely still existing city wall and city towers .
geography
Geographical location
Warburg is located in the eastern part of North Rhine-Westphalia in the south of the Höxter district and thus belongs to the southeastern area of the Ostwestfalen-Lippe region . It is located in the eastern border region of the state of North Rhine-Westphalia, around 27 kilometers southwest of the three-country triangle Hesse-Lower Saxony-North Rhine-Westphalia. In the south, the city borders on the state of Hesse . In terms of natural space , Warburg is located in the south of the Warburg Börde , a fertile lowland with loess soil and few trees. The Börde is mainly used for agriculture. In the south-west the urban area touches the foothills of the Sauerland , in the north-west that of the Egge Mountains . In the north and northeast the actual Warburger Börde joins, to the south the West Hessian mountains . The closest regional centers are Paderborn (northwest: 27 kilometers of country roads, 40 kilometers of motorway), Kassel (southeast: 35 kilometers of country roads / motorway) and Göttingen (east: 76 kilometers of country roads, 98 kilometers of motorway).
The most important bodies of water in the urban area are the Diemel , which, coming from Hesse, flows through the southern part of the urban area from west to east, as well as the Twiste which flows south of the city into the Diemel , which previously flows through the villages of Welda and Wormeln in the south of the core city. The Hörler Bach flows into the twist at Welda. The Diemel takes up the Calenberger Bach . Another tributary of the Diemel in the area of the city is the Eggel , which flows through Warburg in the east and drains large parts of the Warburg Börde, coming from Daseburg, to the south. A few mills on the rivers used water power, which today operates an electricity company. The stream flow serves to supply fresh water for fish farming in the ponds of the Warburg villages.
The location on the Diemel characterizes the old and new town of Warburg. The old town is in the valley of the Diemel, the new town at an altitude above the river. Old town and Diemel are at an altitude of around 160 m above sea level. NN , the new town reaches almost 220 m .

Desenberg , a little northeast of the city center, is the most striking elevation of the otherwise relatively flat Warburg Börde. It is a mountain cone of volcanic origin towering over the surrounding area by 150 meters and a total height of 343.6 m above sea level. NN . The ruins of Desenberg Castle are on its summit . However, the mountain is not the highest elevation in the urban area, this is the Humbertsberg at 423.4 m above sea level. NN in the Warburg Forest west of Scherfede . The 148.7 m above sea level. NN lowest point is in the southeast of Warburg in the Diemeltal.
geology
From the northeast to the southwest, increasingly older rock layers form the subsurface. The formations made of red sandstone , shell limestone and keuper were created by sediments that were deposited there during the Triassic .
In numerous uplift and subsidence areas running from south-east to north-west, delimited by rock failure lines, older rock layers were shifted towards much younger ones. Especially in the deeply cut Diemeltal and in the Warburger Börde, loose rocks from the Ice Ages cover this rocky subsoil. The ice ages did not shape the area around Warburg, as the boundary of the glaciation ran a little to the north. In addition to sand and gravel , it is especially the aeolian deposited loess , which makes the flange to a fertile landscape and its high fertility favors the agricultural character of the region. There are also remains of Chernosemen in certain areas of the Warburg Börde; In most areas, however, these were eroded by erosion , favored by centuries of economic use. On the steep slopes of the Diemel valley, shallow soils at risk of dehydration, the rendzinen , have emerged from shell limestone rubble that is used as pasture. In the northwestern urban area, the loess is only present in a thin blanket and only in places. There are weathered limestone soils like the already mentioned rendzines and base-rich brown earths . On the Varenberg, west of Bonenburg, the Lower Cretaceous sandstones of the Eggekamm come to light . The high levels of precipitation there favored the leaching of iron hydroxides into the subsoil, where they solidified to form soil. There developed sauergebleichte, nutrient-poor Podsol -floors.
The rocky subsoil between Klingenburg and Hohenwepel consists of clay , marl , dolomite and sandstones from the Keuper . From Herlinghausen via Welda to Scherfede and further north there are limestone as well as clay and marl stones from a former shell limestone sea. There are also smaller deposits of clay, silt and partly sandstones from the red sandstone , Keuper or Jurassic periods . Further south and south-east around Bonenburg and in the area west of Scherfede there are also silt and sandstones from the red sandstone period. On the Schurenberg and Humbertsberg in the west of the city there are clay marl and marl limestones from the Upper Cretaceous Sea. To the east of the urban desert of Blankenrode and on the Bentenberg, sandstones from the Lower Cretaceous Period occur . The sandstone and claystone deposits are used in places as plastering and wall sand or as brick raw materials.
In the urban area there are several extinct volcanoes , the magma of which broke through the mountains in narrow chimneys about 19 million years ago. The two most striking basalt cones in the area are the Desenberg and the Dörenberg near Daseburg as well as the three basalt cones in the north, albeit outside the urban area, Hüssenberg (near Eissen ), Tannenkopf (Wörtenberg, near Lütgeneder ) and the flat, wooded hilltop of the Weißholzes.
The Warburg area is well suited, in the western part very well, for the use of geothermal heat sources by means of geothermal probes and heat recovery through heat pump heating .
Flora and fauna
As Warburg is located in one of the regions of Westphalia with the least rainfall and has many semi-dry limestone areas, a variety of arable and medicinal herbs that are very rare in Central Europe grow there. Fruit trees thrive outdoors. Several parcels have been designated as nature reserves.
The limestone semi-arid grassland area is of outstanding importance as a habitat for butterflies and the very rare rams , which no other habitat in Central Europe can match. The population can be found mainly in the area around the Diemel Valley. According to the Fauna-Flora-Habitat Directive , the orchid-rich limestone lawn is one of the habitat types to be protected.
Expansion of the urban area and land use
The area of the city extends over an area of 168.71 km². The city area extends 12.4 km in north-south direction and 25.4 km in west-east direction.
The area of the city of Warburg, especially the Börde, is mainly used for agriculture. In addition, there are still relatively large forest areas, especially in the direction of the Egge Mountains. Compared to the North Rhine-Westphalian national average of 49.4%, the agricultural area in Warburg is almost 60%, while the forest area with 29.5% and the settlement area with 11.7% are about half (22.1%) of the national average and is significantly below the average for municipalities of the same type (14.2%). The following table provides an overview of the land use:

Neighboring communities
In a clockwise direction, starting in the north, Warburg is bordered by the municipalities or cities of Willebadessen , Borgentreich (both in the district of Höxter , North Rhine-Westphalia ), Liebenau , Breuna (both in the district of Kassel , Hesse ), Volkmarsen , Diemelstadt (both in the district of Waldeck-Frankenberg , Hessen), Marsberg ( Hochsauerlandkreis , North Rhine-Westphalia) and Lichtenau ( Paderborn district , North Rhine-Westphalia).
City structure
According to Section 3 (1) of its main statute, the city of Warburg is divided into seven districts and nine localities, which were independent municipalities before 1975 and are referred to as districts. City districts are districts with more than 1,000 inhabitants. There are district committees for the city districts, the number of members of which is based on the number of inhabitants.

climate
Warburg lies in the transition area between the predominant maritime climate and the less pronounced continental climate . Therefore, the temperatures and rainfall are relatively balanced during the year. The summers are rather cool compared to the highly continental climate, the winters are rather warm. In addition to this large-scale climatic classification, the local climate is significantly influenced by the special location between the Eggegebirge and the foothills of the Rothaargebirge ( Sauerland ). In both mountains, high precipitation and low average temperatures are registered. In Warburg, on the other hand, the climate is much milder and the average annual rainfall is less than 700 mm. The relatively low rainfall is mainly due to the location on the leeward side of the Egge Mountains. The mountains, which extend in a south-north direction, shield Warburg largely from the humid air, which mostly penetrates from the west towards central Germany and already rains down on the windward side in the Paderborn region . Compared to other areas of North Rhine-Westphalia, Warburg is relatively far from the sea and is one of the regions with the lowest rainfall in Westphalia, even before northern East Westphalia ( Mindener Land ). In the southern part of the city, especially in the Twist valley up to the Weldaer Berg, the amount of rain is again 15–20% lower and the temperature 0.5–1 ° C higher than in the rest of the city. The annual average temperature, which is mainly influenced by the altitude, is around 8 ° C and is therefore lower than in the protected Weser Valley further east near Höxter, but significantly higher than in the altitude in the western Egge Mountains and Sauerland.

history
Origin of the place name
The origin of the place name Warburg is derived from Ward (Old High German: Warta) Platz, where people peek, waiting, Latin statio or -berg or -burg. The Neustadt of Warburg is located on a large rock spur ( 230 m above sea level ), which was previously used as a guard position because of its natural protection and its overview of the surrounding land. There are different historical spellings: Wartberg, Wartberc (h), Wartberg (h) (i), Wardburg or Wartborch, Warberghe, Waretberg, Wardberch. In Low German the place is called Warb (e) rich. In Latin the city is called Warburgum or Varburgum .
Prehistory and early history
In the urban area of Warburg, finds from prehistory and early history were made during excavations . A dagger found near Warburg was assigned to the late Neolithic , as was an earthwork near Rimbeck . Megalithic graves from the 4th millennium BC are among others with the gallery grave of Warburg-Rimbeck . Received.
A find of large stone graves from around 3200 BC. Near the Lütkefeld in the northern part of the city is in the Westphalian Museum of Archeology in Herne. The copy of one of the huge wall stones recovered there with "engraved" symbols, which give an insight into the spiritual and religious world of the people of the Neolithic Age, is in the Stadtmuseum Museum im Stern .
In the vicinity of Daseburg near Warburg, the remains of a settlement with blacksmith workshops from the Roman Empire were found. A Germanic settlement with an area of 110 meters by 80 meters existed south of the Desenberg . In addition to traces of residential buildings, there were bronze smelting furnaces and racing furnaces for smelting iron ore. Coin finds indicate that there was a trade route near the Warburger Diemelfurt in the 2nd to 4th centuries.
middle Ages
In the 8th century there was a Saxon aristocratic seat west of the city . After the subjection of the Saxon Hessengau north and south of the Diemel under the Frankish empire of Charlemagne and the destruction of the Irminsul in 772, Christianization began and the area was divided into counties. The Wartberg , today's castle hill , became the seat of the count and gave the city its name. In Warburg in the Middle Ages there was a Gogericht and in the district Wormeln a kangaroo court . In 1191 the Holsterburg was built southeast of the old town of Warburg , which - almost 100 years later - was destroyed in 1294. In 1358 the city of Warburg entered into a protective and defensive alliance with the cities of Stadtbergen (Marsberg), Hofgeismar, Volkmarsen and Wolfhagen.
The castle on the Wartberg
The first mention of the city is a document from around 1010. In the Vita Meinwerci , the biography of Bishop Meinwerk of Paderborn, a Count Dodiko is named who administered large parts of the Hessengau , Ittergau and Nethegau from the Wartberch around 1000 . It contains a representation of his castle from the 11th century. According to Meinwerk's report, it is said to have been of impressive size and strongly fortified as early as the time of Dodikos. To supply the castle, three farms were built in the immediate vicinity: to the southeast the curia inferior (lower court), to the north the curia superior (upper court) and to the east, presumably later, the curia media (middle court). These courtyards were of great importance for the economic development of the city and the settlement, because other people settled under the protection of the castle.
From the Wartberg and its castle you had a good overview of the Diemel valley. In this way, the ford could be monitored, which had to be passed by the merchants moving to Warburg and Paderborn . The Diemelfurt was an intersection of several long-distance trade routes and was decisive for the development of the city. The sub- settlements of Berna an der Diemelfurt, Molhusen an der Diemel, Bußdorf in the direction of today's district of Dössel , and Papenheim in the direction of today's district of Menne were established in what was later to be the urban area .
Until the occupation of the city by Prussian troops in 1802, burgraves were the raven von Pappenheim and von Canstein .
Transfer of the county rights to Paderborn
The castle was first owned by Count Dodiko , whose property fell to the Bishop of Paderborn in 1020 . The advantageous location of the castle and its impressive size had attracted the attention of the Paderborn Bishop Meinwerk some time before , who wanted it to be incorporated into his diocese. Dodiko's preferred heir was his illegitimate son, who allegedly came from a relationship with a nun. However, he was probably killed in a riding accident in 1018. Without an heir, the count was ready to transfer his goods and property to the bishop in the form of a precariousness . The bishop granted the count the use of his former property, including church property, for life. However, Dodiko died on August 29, 1020, so that the entire property fell to the diocese of Paderborn.
In the following year, Emperor Heinrich II transferred the count's rights to Bishop Meinwerk. As a result of an intrigue emanating from the Archdiocese of Mainz , Konrad II withdrew it from him , but gave it back to him in 1033 because of his loyal support. Thus, the castle retained its protective function against Mainz claims for a long time.
Development of the city and creation of the old town
In 1036, Bishop Meinwerk first testified Warburg as a closed village. To the southeast of the castle was a settlement with the same name, Wartberch . This is where the ministerials and working class women lived. In addition, residents of the surrounding villages settled near the castle, so that a suburb ( suburbium ) was created, which together with the castle formed the town center. The market area on the plateau of Ikenberges was towards the end of the 11th century, the midpoint of a street in the sack for merchants and craftsmen on both sides of the old trade route.
With the relocation of the ruling power by the Hohenstaufen to the south, the diocese of Paderborn got into a peripheral position and was involved in regional conflicts with the archbishopric of Cologne as the fiercest opponent. The settlement at the foot of the mountain forced the Bishop of Paderborn to lay out a town in order to be able to continue to protect the growing number of settlers and to secure his political position against the neighboring rulers. Thus the old town of Warburg was built from 1168 to 1187 as a plan by the city lord on an even strip of land below the southeastern suburbium and the curia inferior (lower courtyard). The city count, who oversaw the settlement, trade and construction work, was in charge of the new old town.
Development of the new town
In the northern part, near the curia superior (upper court), settlers settled who came mainly from the farming villages of Molhusen, Bußdorf and Papenheim. With the involvement of the curia superior and the surrounding area, the Neustadt Warburg was founded in 1228/1229 by Bernhard IV zur Lippe to secure his political position in the Diemel area against the advance of the Archbishop of Cologne. Like the old town, the new town was a planned town, but it was not laid out on a rectangular area, but as a spindle-shaped three-street system .
The Neustadt was settled by immigrants from the Bördeland north of the Diemel and the Nethegau as well as by merchants from a little further away such as Horhusen (today Niedermarsberg ). The farming settlements of Molhusen, Bußdorf and Papenheim merged with the Neustadt.
By 1239 the Neustadt was fully developed as an urban community and also had its own town hall . After the death of Count Dodiko and the loss of the city count's office, an independent city council was formed under episcopal rule. The gentlemen who were able to advise came primarily from families of craftsmen and traders. The citizens subsequently took over the office of city judge and thus had full civil rights based on the Dortmund and Marsberg model. The bishop preferred the new town, the old town only received the same rights as the new town in 1256. In 1260 the new town received the right to build a city wall , which also ran between the two towns. The old town of Warburg and the new town were two independent cities, between which there was tension until modern times.
The archbishop of Cologne and diocese administrator of Paderborn, Dietrich von Moers , seemed to be favored by the city of Warburg. On September 26, 1430, he held a meeting of the collegiate councils of the Principality of Paderborn in the Dominican monastery . He expanded the system of the Warburg field watchdogs with an important watch tower and had several land defenses built around Warburg. The reason for preferring Warburg was probably Dietrich's conflict with the Paderborn cathedral chapter . In 1436 he tried to settle his official Heinrich Bode in Warburg. This failed because of the resistance of the Paderborn clergy; because an official was not intended for the Paderborn, but only for the Cologne diocese . The Paderborn cathedral chapter saw this as an attempt to incorporate the diocese into the archbishopric of Cologne despite the papal ban.
Economic development
With the founding of the Cistercian monastery Hardehausen by Bishop Bernhard I of Paderborn in 1155, the greatest economic power in the area of the bishopric emerged in the immediate vicinity of Warburg. From 1258 Hardehausen ran a monastery courtyard in Warburg-Neustadt.
In Warburg the handicrafts organized in guilds established themselves, whereby the canvas weaving, the leather and wool industry and some artisans like Antonius Eisenhoit gained supraregional importance.
In 1364, both cities joined the Hanseatic League and achieved an economic boom through this and the neighboring Cistercian monastery.
Union of the two cities
The old town and the new town merged into one town in 1436. The constitution was laid down in the Groten Breff (Great Letter) and the seals of the two cities of Wartberg were given. Two fortified towers with double walls are visible on the cast seal, the Paderborn bishop stands under the city gate with a staff, the inscription reads: “Sigillium burgensium in wartborch”. The Grote Breff , a particularly extensive legal document, is written in Middle Low German , the language of the German Hanseatic League.
The council meetings took place every six months in the old town hall and in the new town hall on the market square. There were two mayors who each chaired the meeting for six months. The common town hall between the cities was not built until 1568, 132 years after the merger.
In addition to the political decisions, regulations on economic life were also made in the Groten Breff . The guild masters of the Warburg guilds of merchants, wool weavers and bakers had a say in the new statutes. In the Middle Ages, Warburg was given the right to mint its own coins. During the Staufer period (approx. 1140 to 1270), the city had a coin shelf for a short time. The mint was located on the market square in the old town. The currency is called around 1327 Warburg denariums and around 1366 also old Warburg pfennigs and munte or heavy stamps and pfennigs. In 1622, the city of Warburg had the princely concession to mint 4000 Reichstaler copper coins for the Oberwald district (this roughly corresponds to today's Höxter district without the former Corveyer Land, i.e. the city of Höxter).
In Braun-Hogenberg's city book from 1581, Warburg is praised as "elegans Westphaliae oppidum", the elegant city of Westphalia.
17th century
At the beginning of the 17th century Warburg was a rich trading town. Outside the city wall, the Hüffert emerged as a new district. Beginning in 1621, large parts of the Hüffert and villages in the area were looted and destroyed in the Thirty Years War , and the city became impoverished. The population decreased from around 16,000 (before 1618) to around 2,000 (after 1648). Around 1622, after it had been destroyed, Warburg was once again granted the right to mint its own coins, as in the Middle Ages.
In 1622 the Duke of Braunschweig , Christian von Braunschweig-Wolfenbüttel ("the great Christian") took Warburg. From 1628 onwards the lords and the crew changed several times ( Hesse , Imperial , Sweden ). In 1648, at the end of the war, the city was in the hands of the Imperialists. Warburg became an agricultural town after being heavily destroyed. Membership in the Hanseatic League had ended and the economic heyday was over. Mayor Johann Fischer (1695–1697) was able to reduce part of the high debt burden and contributions caused by the war through negotiations . The debts could not be finally repaid until the 19th century. In 1628, with financial support from Heinrich Thöne, the Dominican monastery school became a higher school, from which the later Gymnasium Marianum emerged .
18th century
The city recovered only very slowly from the economic decline after the long war. In 1721 the brewery Kohlschein, the Warburg brewery , was granted the right to brew .
During the Seven Years' War , on July 31, 1760, the battle of Warburg took place near the villages of Ossendorf and Warburg. The allied army from Kurbraunschweig-Lüneburger, Braunschweig-Wolfenbütteler, Hessen-Kasseler and British troops fought against a French army division under General Lieutenant Comte du Muy. With their victory, the Allies succeeded in defending the Diemel line and thus Westphalia, while at the same time having to give up Hessen-Kassel.
19th century and industrialization
Prussian troops entered Warburg on August 3, 1802. From 1807 to 1813 the city belonged to the Kingdom of Westphalia and was the seat of the Canton of Warburg . After the Congress of Vienna , Warburg fell back to Prussia in 1815. A year later, in 1816, Warburg became the district town and thus the seat of the district administration. The district area extended to the present-day districts of Willebadessen, Borgentreich, Warburg and parts of Brakel.

In 1810 the grammar school and the Dominican monastery were partially closed by the French administration and finally in 1824 by the Prussian administration. From 1815 the school served as a courthouse and prison. With the influx of Prussian officials, the number of Protestants in Warburg increased. The newly formed Protestant parish received the former Dominican monastery church. A Protestant school was built in the monastery building, which was reopened in 1826 as the Königliches Progymnasium zu Warburg, initially with three classes.
In 1841 the Warburg-Land Office was set up in Warburg, which administered the surrounding localities (excluding Warburg City). In 1865, a new courthouse for the district court with over 50 employees was inaugurated in the Neustadt Auf'm Pfuhl . The Warburger Kreisblatt was founded in 1839, and a new post office building was built in 1894. Citizens and rural population were exposed to high burdens through the wars, plus the transfer fees for exemption from serfdom and the tax bills introduced by the Prussian state in 1822. Poverty and need caused a wave of emigration to North America around 1830.
Industrialization started late. The connection to Kassel was the first railway line to be completed in 1851 ; two years followed by the railway line to Paderborn . Warburg became a traffic junction for passenger and freight traffic, and the railways an important employer. In 1890 the railway line to Arolsen was opened. The Warburg paper mill, built in 1863, mainly produced straw cardboard for over a century. In 1882 the sugar factory was founded in Warburg , which was the oldest sugar factory in East Westphalia (older than the factory in Lage (Lippe) ) until its closure at the end of the 2019 harvest campaign . Steam grinding mills were added later. In the 19th century Warburg was a center for grain, livestock and iron trade. It was not until 1892 that Warburg had paid off the debt of the Thirty Years' War .
In addition to the commercial enterprises, the educational institutions and the infrastructure were expanded. The planning of a girls' school for higher education, the later Hüffertgymnasium , began in 1856. The school was run by the poor school sisters. The Warburg Agricultural School for the education and training of farmers and housekeepers was founded in 1885 and existed until 1974. The number of jobs decreased due to the change in work processes and the later motorization in agriculture. People of working age migrated to the metropolitan areas until the 1960s.
At the turn of the 20th century, an economic recovery began. Many houses were built or expanded. A few construction companies and construction material companies (quarries, brickworks, lime works) settled in the area around Warburg, some of which gained supra-regional importance.
20th century
First World War and Weimar Republic
Hundreds of soldiers from Warburg were killed in the First World War. Agriculture supplied grain, sugar, vegetables and fruit to the metropolitan areas. Bells, organ pipes and other metal objects, also from private individuals, were melted down for war material. During and after the war, Russian prisoners of war were used to work on the surrounding estates. Immediately after the war, inspired by the council movement across the empire, there was also a movement in Warburg that wanted to form farmers 'and farm workers' councils. After the First World War there was a tax office, a post office, the district court, the railway company, a traffic office, a Reichsbank branch and a customs office.
In 1923 the development of a new building area on the Hüffert began with the construction of the St. Petri Hospital , the girls' school , a youth hostel and the Hüffertkampfbahn.
The predominantly Catholic area was a stronghold of the Center Party . In the 1928 elections, the NSDAP received only eight votes. The local media showered the NSDAP and its representatives with scorn and ridicule. Four years later there were 339 votes (about 7%) in the Reichstag elections of 1932 in Warburg Stadt.
time of the nationalsocialism
In the elections on March 5, 1933, the Center Party in Warburg received 67.2%, the NSDAP 21.8% (1,027 votes in the city of Warburg and 4203 in the Warburg district). After the election, the civil servants of the Center Party were either transferred or sidelined by the government in Minden, and others were intimidated. The first council meeting was staged by the NSDAP, the Center Party dissolved. The other councilors were asked to join the NSDAP faction as guest students, which most of them did. The SA -Sturmbannführer Schlötel from Bielefeld was introduced as mayor on July 27, 1933. In the forest between Warburg and Kleinenberg the arrested in March political journalist and poet was in August 1933 Felix Fechenbach during transport to the Dachau concentration camp allegedly shot on the run.
National Socialist policies had a devastating effect on the important Jewish community in Warburg . In 1933 there were 160 citizens of the city of Jewish faith. Some of them emigrated to Palestine, America or Great Britain before 1939, so that in 1939 their number was reduced to 96 in what is now the core city of Warburg. The synagogue of the Warburg community in the old town and the synagogue in Rimbeck were largely destroyed by an SS commando stationed in Arolsen during the Night of the Reichspogrom in November 1938 . After that, most of the Jewish men were sent to the Buchenwald and Dachau concentration camps and were released again in mid-November and mid-December of that year. In December 1941, 50 Jewish citizens were initially deported to the Riga ghetto . In 1942 more citizens were deported to Minsk , Theresienstadt and Auschwitz in three transport trains. A total of up to 148 people of Jewish faith were deported from the Warburg area, 136 of whom died in ghettos, were murdered in extermination camps or are missing. After 1945 five Jews from Warburg and seven from Rimbeck came back. Three of them rebuilt an existence in Warburg; the others emigrated to North America and Palestine.
Warburg celebrated its 900th anniversary in 1936; the city was decorated with swastika flags. The event was described in the National Socialist magazine Heimat und Reich .
During the Second World War , French and Eastern European prisoners of war mostly did forced labor in agriculture .
Two people were killed in a bomb attack on March 27, 1945 in Warburg. Three residential buildings, a commercial building, a commercial enterprise and an agricultural building were destroyed. Nine residential buildings were destroyed in Ossendorf and four in Rimbeck. Three people were killed in the two places.
From Good Friday to Holy Saturday , April 1, 1945, the city was surrendered largely without a fight to US troops who had unexpectedly advanced from the southwest while the line of defense was in the northern county area. British soldiers took over the city command due to the Allied territorial regulation.
After 1945
The district of Warburg belonged to the British zone of occupation . When new federal states were formed, the Warburg district became part of the state of North Rhine-Westphalia, which arose from the northern part of the Prussian Rhine province and the province of Westphalia .
Due to numerous refugees and displaced persons from the former German eastern areas, the number of inhabitants increased considerably. First, barracks were built on Schützenplatz to accommodate them; This was followed by the development of new residential areas and the construction of apartments, especially on the Hüffert , also on Wiesenberg, on Daseburger Strasse and on Volkmarser Weg on the other side of the Diemel.
In the 1950s, Kurt Hollbach founded Warburger Nahrungsmittelwerke , which produced canned fruit and vegetables under the Warburg brand name until the end of the 1990s .
In the early 1950s, land consolidation was carried out in the Warburger Land . The office for agricultural regulation responsible for implementation in the region of southern East Westphalia was established in Warburg. The new building of the office, together with the adjacent building of the former district police authority, was built in the early 1970s on Landfurtweg and the corner of Prozessionsweg.
At that time, elementary school teachers were trained in short courses at the Warburg agricultural school. The school on Alten-Bahnhofsweg was closed in the early 1970s. The imposing staircase on the southern side of the building remains a garden architectural jewel. The building is privately owned.
In 1955 the girls' higher school was expanded to include an upper level.
At the beginning of the 1990s, the Dominican Order gave up its convent of St. Mary's Assumption in Warburg, which was only built between 1903 and 1908 in Klosterstrasse . Two monasteries within the order, the convent in Warburg and the convent St. Paulus in Worms, were up for discussion, which was ultimately decided in favor of the Wormer convent. The Syrian Orthodox Church acquired the convent building in 1996, which has since been used as the seat of the Syrian Orthodox Archbishop of Germany and a Syrian Orthodox monastery under the name of St. Jakob von Sarug Monastery.
In the years 1947, 1948, 1964, 1965 (so-called Heinrichsflut ), several catastrophic floods occurred on the two rivers Diemel and Twiste, which caused damage amounting to tens of millions in some Warburg towns. As a result, two Diemel water associations were founded on both sides of the state border to implement flood protection measures.
In 1974 the branch of the Landeszentralbank in Warburg was closed. The Warburg bank, whose credit institutions had the bank code 474xxxzz, was assigned to the Paderborn bank.
On December 31, 1974, the Warburg district, which had existed since August 1, 1816, was dissolved and merged with the old district of Höxter. With that the city lost its status as a district town. The population of Warburg did not agree with the merger and still has resentment against it today. In the joint area change agreement of the districts of Warburg and Höxter of July 24, 1974 on the reorganization of the district, it was agreed in Section 1 to name the joint new district as the Brakel district with its seat in the town of Brakel, which is centrally located in the district . This contract was accepted by the Höxter district council at the meeting on July 23, 1974 with regard to § 1 with 24 yes- against 18 against and 1 abstention, as well as §§ 2-19 with 2 against and 1 abstention. Despite the consent of the Warburg district council to this area change agreement, the state parliament decision on November 5, 1974 on the Sauerland / Paderborn law there decided with a narrow majority in favor of the new district name Höxter district with its seat in Höxter and thus against the previously agreed area change agreement. Naming the new district as Höxter-Warburg district , comparable to the new Minden-Lübbecke district in the previous year, was not approved by the Düsseldorf state parliament.
On December 31, 1974, the WAR license plate was issued for Warburg for the last four decades . At its 7th meeting on April 23, 2015, the Höxter district council voted with 15 votes in favor and 23 against (with three abstentions) against the reintroduction of the WAR label (in addition to HX ).
In 1983 the city of Warburg was a founding member of the Westphalian Hanseatic League. Warburg is also a member of the New Hanseatic League, founded in 1980 .
In 1986 the city celebrated its 950th anniversary with a year-round festival program.
21st century
At the end of 2008, the city council decided to redesign the historic Warburg town center as a model project to be barrier-free. The start of the multi-year redesign was originally planned for the beginning of 2010, but was then postponed to spring 2011. At the end of 2011, most of the construction work for the first construction phases was completed.
The barrier-free redesigned main street from the direction of Neustadtmarktplatz
New road surface and seating on the main street
The redesigned main street in the direction of Paderborner Tor
From 2009 to 2019 Warburg was the location of part of the Ostwestfalen-Lippe University of Applied Sciences . The study center was located in the former Agricultural Regulation Office , which was relocated to Bielefeld in 2009.

In 2010, the Holsterburg between Warburg and Calenberg in the Niederung or Feldmark am Roten Graben was excavated by an archaeological team. The castle has so far been classified as a so-called motte , but it is a low-rise castle built as an octagon in the Staufer period , a very rare design for castles. It is one of only three octagonal castles in Germany and the only one of its kind in Westphalia . This type of castle wall has so far only been found in Hohenstaufen areas, for example as the corner tower of Castel del Monte in Apulia (Italy). Limestone was used as the material for the double wall. A canal was found in the walls, which probably served as a heating system.
In 2011 the city celebrated its 975th anniversary with a year-round festival program.
After a change in the municipal code for North Rhine-Westphalia in October 2011 allowed official designations for city names, the additional designation Hanseatic City was approved for Warburg . On April 26, 2012, the first new entrance sign with the name was put up.
At the district council meeting of the Höxter district on October 1, 2019, the reintroduction of the old WAR label (for the former Warburg district) was resolved with 28 yes and 3 no votes (with 5 abstentions) . After the approval of the Federal Ministry of Transport, the license plate was first reissued on Friday, November 8, 2019. Since then, vehicle owners have been able to make their connection to the city of Warburg recognizable.
In the late summer of 2020, planning and public participation will begin for a new, so-called 'combi' pool on the site of the previous whale swimming pool, which will replace the previous pools as a new outdoor and indoor pool.
In January 2021, the city of Warburg was selected by the Hertie Foundation as a participant in the 'Youth Decides' project, a program in which local politics are made tangible and tangible for young people.
Incorporations
On January 1, 1975, during the North Rhine-Westphalian territorial reform with the Sauerland / Paderborn Act of November 5, 1974, the old district of Höxter and the district of Warburg were merged to form the new district of Höxter and the towns and communities of the district of Warburg were reorganized. According to Section 31 of the same law, the city of Warburg, the 14 previously independent municipalities of Bonenburg, Calenberg, Dalheim, Dössel, Germete, Herlinghausen, Hohenwepel, Menne, Nörde, Ossendorf, Rimbeck, Scherfede, Welda and Wormeln from the Warburg-Land office as well the community Daseburg from the Amt Borgentreich the new city of Warburg. The offices were dissolved; The legal successor to the Warburg-Land office is the city of Warburg. The incorporated communities correspond to today's districts.
After the city was merged with the municipalities of the Warburg-Land Office, in addition to the Town Hall Between the Cities, there was the Warburg-Land administrative office on Kasseler Strasse, which was given up after the district authorities withdrew. Instead, they moved into the administrative building on Bahnhofstrasse.
Population development
The following overview shows the population of the city of Warburg according to the respective territorial status, with some figures also according to the current territorial status . It concerns census results up to 1970 and 1987 and from 1975 official updates of the State Office for Data Processing and Statistics . The figures from 1975 to 1985 are estimated values, the figures from 1990 onwards based on the results of the 1987 census. From 2011 onwards, the figures are based on the 2011 census again. From 1871 and 1946, the figures relate to the local population , from 1925 on the resident population and from 1985 on the population at the place of the main residence . Before 1871, the population figures were determined using inconsistent survey methods. Before 1618, 16,000 citizens are said to have lived in the city, in 1648 there were only 2,000 inhabitants. Warburg had the highest population in 1950 with almost 26,000 inhabitants, followed by 2000 with 24,200 inhabitants.

religion
In the 1987 census, 77% of the respondents said they were Roman Catholic, 18% were Protestant, around 1% belonged to an Islamic religious society, 1% of other religious societies and 1.5% said they did not belong to any religion or did not do any Specification.
Christianity
In the Saxon Wars of Charlemagne, the region on the Diemel was subjugated by the Frankish Empire . On behalf of Charlemagne, Sturmius , the founder and abbot of the Fulda monastery, evangelized the area around Diemel and Weser in 774 . In 805/806 Hathumar was appointed as the first bishop for the newly raised diocese of Paderborn, which at the beginning was still under the sovereignty of the diocese of Würzburg . In the course of time the diocese of Paderborn was legally upgraded, from 822 it received judicial powers in the territory and immunity, from 885 the right of free election of bishops by the cathedral clergy. In 822, the Benedictine Abbey Corvey was founded nearby (near Höxter), which was secularized in 1802 . From 1321 to 1806 Warburg belonged to the Principality of Paderborn , in which the city made up half of the members of the Estates Council.
Warburg is considered a possible location for Irminsul , an old Saxon main sanctuary column.
With the exception of the Herlinghausen district, today's urban area is traditionally Catholic. From 1816 onwards, the Prussian administration and the posting of civil servants steadily increased the proportion of residents with Protestant beliefs. In 1826 a Protestant parish was founded in the city center. In 1890 the Protestant parish had 948 members (including about 350 in Herlinghausen), in 1937 there were around 1400, after the war (peak in October 1947) at times 3650 (the city of Warburg accounted for 2200, 400 were housed in a refugee camp in Dössel) . After there were not enough jobs in Warburg, many of the refugees moved on to the industrial conurbations, so that the number of Protestant believers fell sharply again. In the 1980s and 1990s, ethnic repatriates added more. However, the Protestants remained in the minority. In 1975 the number of Catholics in the urban area increased again through the incorporation of the surrounding villages.
Catholic Church
The oldest preserved architectural monument is the crypt of the earlier Romanesque St. Andrew's Basilica . It belonged to the castle of Count Dodiko, was built as an upper and lower church in the 11th century and destroyed in the Thirty Years War. In 1681 the preserved crypt was built over with a pilgrimage church of St. Erasmus. After Count Dodiko had no descendants, his inheritance fell to the diocese of Paderborn around 1020, which was elevated to a prince-bishopric in 1321 and existed until the end of the Holy Roman Empire in 1806. In 1929 it came to the Archdiocese of Paderborn . The Paderborn bishop founded the Warburger Neustadt in 1228–1230 in order to defend his territorial claim against the Archbishop of Cologne.
The main churches today are the Catholic New Town Church of St. Johannes Baptist , built in 1264, and the Catholic Old Town Church of St. Mary's Visitation , built in 1299. The Dominicans came to Warburg in 1281. The Dominican Convent Warburg was located "between the cities". In the Middle Ages, several Kaland brotherhoods settled in Warburg, the majority in Neustadt. Kalandstrasse is named after them. The former parish church in the old town was the Dominican church Maria in vinea from 1283 . The Neustadt and Old Town parishes each have a parish center in Böttrichhaus and Arndoldihaus, two late Gothic Flettdeelen houses from the 16th century. Each parish is responsible for two kindergartens. With the exception of Dalheim and Herlinghausen, there is a local Catholic church and a parish hall in the surrounding villages. The parishes in the urban area of Warburg are united in a pastoral association and belong to the Höxter-Warburg deanery.
The Reformation did not leave the Warburg citizens and clergy untouched, as the then cathedral cantor discovered in the spring of 1570, who carried out a visitation in his archdeaconate Warburg, which then comprised 25 parishes. During the Reformation, Warburg had always remained Catholic on the whole. The theologian Otto Beckmann, the Dominican Order and the Kaland Brotherhoods contributed to this development . The settlement of Jesuits in Warburg in 1664, which the Paderborn bishop had requested, was not necessary and was reversed in 1700. In 1628, with financial support from the Warburg-based Canon H. Thöne from Mainz, a municipal high school, the Marianum grammar school , was founded and set up in the Dominican monastery ; the Dominicans provided the teachers. The Dominican Convention was suppressed in 1810 by the government of the Kingdom of Westphalia under Napoleon's influence; the school was still run by the Dominicans. The Dominican Convention was finally repealed by the Prussian government in 1826. After the Kulturkampf , the Dominicans came back to Warburg to train their novices there and to send them to grammar school. After the construction of the neo-Gothic Dominican monastery of St. Mary's Assumption (1906–1915), the Dominicans moved to the new monastery building that was built nearby at the train station. They gave up their convent in Warburg in the early 1990s. In addition to the Dominicans, there were other religious orders. The Catholic Order of Women, Poor School Sisters , directed the middle school for girls on the Hüffert, which has been today's Hüffert grammar school from 1900 and since 1955 . In the old town there was the order of the Sisters of Saint Vincent , the nursery school, nursing and care for the elderly and a sewing school. There was a beguinage each in the old town and in the new town .
There are 15 Catholic church buildings and some chapels in the Warburg city area. The Catholic Church was originally the sponsor of the St. Petri Hospital , which was located first in the city center and later on Hüffert and in which a Catholic Order of St. Vincent's Sisters had taken care of the sick. In 2008 the sponsorship of the hospital was sold to Rhön-Klinikum AG . The Evangelical parish is housed in the Corvinushaus today. The church founded the St. Laurentius Home for adolescents with physical or mental disabilities and is its sponsor. The Catholic Church and Catholic congregations are responsible for various ecclesiastical institutions such as the Caritas station and old people's and nursing homes, for example the St. John's House of the Vincentines and the Hainberg of the Serviam Sisters. The Bonenburg Way of the Cross was laid out in the Bonenburg district around 1935 . The two pastoral associations Warburg - City and Country and Egge-Börde-Diemeltal were merged in 2012 to form the Pastoral Association Warburg - City and Country . The faithful in Wrexen, Orpethal and the chapel community in Engar are also provided for by the pastoral team.
Protestant church
Since the Reformation there has been an evangelical congregation in Herlinghausen, today a district of Warburg. Herlinghausen and Hagedorn were the only two places in the former prince-bishopric of Paderborn that became mostly Protestant after the Reformation . Herlinghausen received pastoral care from the pastors of the neighboring Hessian town of Ersen until the 19th century .
After the conquest of Westphalia by the Prussians in 1802 until the French founding of the Kingdom of Westphalia, and when Warburg became Prussian again after its dissolution, Protestant believers moved to Warburg, most of whom worked as Prussian officials in the local authorities. After the founding of a committee for the formation of a Protestant community in 1820, the Bielefeld Superintendent Scheer was commissioned to find out whether an independent church community was possible in Warburg. This was founded in 1826. The superintendent was amazed at the existence of the Herlinghauser community, which belonged to his district, but of which he knew nothing. The Dominican Church Maria-in-vinea (Maria in the Vineyard) , built around 1200, was approved on December 21, 1824 by royal cabinet order of Friedrich Wilhelm III. assigned as property to the Protestant community and contractually assured that the Marianum grammar school, which is dominated by Catholicism, can use it for school masses. In this respect it is still a simultaneous church today. The community owns the Corvinus House as a community center, the Evangelical Family Center Arche and the church in Herlinghausen. The Christian leisure center Kirchberghof in Herlinghausen is an independent cooperation partner of the parish. For the Protestant believers in the western city of Warburg there is another parish in Rimbeck with a church and parish hall and the Haus Phöbe retirement and nursing home.
The communities of Warburg-Herlinghausen and Rimbeck-Scherfede belong to the Paderborn parish of the Evangelical Church of Westphalia, founded in 1840 .
There has been a Free Evangelical Congregation in Warburg since the 1990s, which was founded by ethnic German repatriates. So far there are two independent communities Warburg-Herlinghausen and Scherfede-Rimbeck in the city area. Believers in Blankenrode and Borlinghausen are also looked after beyond the city limits. Both municipalities should merge in 2012. There are around 4800 Protestant believers in total in Warburg. There are three church service buildings in Rimbeck, Herlinghausen and Warburg.
Syriac Orthodox Monastery
The Archdiocese of Germany of the Syrian Orthodox Church has had its bishopric in the former Dominican monastery in Warburg since 1997. The monastery has been called St. Jakob von Sarug since the change of ownership . Since the acquisition of the monastery by Archbishop Julius Yeshu Çiçek and the renovation, it has served as a Syrian Orthodox center in Westphalia. Around 60 Syrian Orthodox families have settled in Warburg.
A synod of the Syrian Orthodox Church decided in mid-September 2010 to divide the Archdiocese of Germany into two dioceses. In fact, at the end of 2012, Archbishop Mor Julius Hanna Aydın, who was previously responsible for the Diocese of Germany, moved to Delmenhorst , from where he looks after the political and ecumenical relations of his church in the Federal Republic, a kind of nunciature . Aydin had previously been the abbot of the monastery and head of the affiliated seminary in Warburg. At the same time, in December 2012, Bishop Philoxenos Matthias Nayis was appointed Metropolitan and Patriarchal Vicar of Germany by the Patriarch of the Syrian Orthodox Church of Antioch Ignatius Zakka Iwas . In addition to seminarians, visitors and staff, there is also a nun and monk priest Stefan Fidan living in the monastery.
Other Christian religious communities
The settlement of Russian Germans and ethnic repatriates from Southeastern Europe in the 1980s / 1990s brought Christians with Orthodox and Catholic denominations and supporters of free churches. Today there is a Free Evangelical Congregation, an Evangelical Free Church Baptist Congregation and a New Apostolic Church in Warburg. There is no information on the number of community members or how many of them live in the Warburg city area.
Jewish life in Warburg
Warburg had an important Jewish community and the highest proportion of Jewish population in the prince-bishopric of Paderborn. Around 1800 of the 2000 inhabitants of Warburg, around 200 and around 1900 of 5000 inhabitants around 300 were Jewish . In the 19th century the state rabbinate had its seat in Warburg. The Jewish school was a public institution from 1861 and had its own school building from 1909. There were also small rural communities (communities) in Rimbeck, Ossendorf, Daseburg, Herlinghausen and Hohenwepel. There are still Jewish cemeteries in Warburg, Ossendorf and Rimbeck. Another reason for the high proportion of Jews in the population may be that Warburg waived missionary requirements, unlike e.g. B. in Kassel, where Jewish citizens had to regularly listen to missionary lectures by clergy after the Reformation. Some Warburg Jews gained international fame.
Immediately after the seizure of power of the Nazi party in 1933, the rabbi and city councilor Julius Cohn was arrested and later murdered. The synagogue in the old town was largely destroyed by an SS commando stationed in Arolsen during the November pogroms in 1938 . Today the rebuilt building serves as a residential building. The door of the synagogue has been preserved. Many Warburg Jews were deported to Riga .
Some Jewish families returned to Warburg from 1945. Attempts were made to rebuild a Jewish community; this failed because of the necessary number of male parishioners. Today only a few Jewish citizens live in Warburg.
Buddhism in Warburg
In the building of the Warburg train station there has been a Buddhist temple of the Wat Buddhametta Warburg e. V. chaired by Houa Kouang Tu. A prayer room with a Buddha statue is located on the ground floor of the station building . The Buddhist monks live on the first floor. For the Khao Phansa festival , the monks invited interested parties to an open day in the newly opened temple for the first time.

Municipal budget
The municipal budget for the 2007 financial year was EUR 35,181,902.73 (adjusted accounting result). The city was in debt with around 13 million euros. The debts resulted in part from previous commitments such as to the former city hospital sponsoring company and other expenses such as the city music school. At times the municipality was unable to balance the budget, which is why a budget security concept was necessary from 2004 to 2007 . For the budget year 2008, the budget target was 33,368,000 euros and the operating-adjusted accounting result was 36,194,855.04 euros. For the financial year 2009, the income amounted to 34,661,280 euros and the expenses to 37,962,610 euros. The debt level in 2009 (excluding municipal companies) was 14.3 million euros. As a result of the 2015 financial year, the total amount of income is 40,637,130 euros and expenses to 43,041,020 euros.
coat of arms
The lily consists of three stylized leaves that are held together by a ribbon. The District President of Detmold granted the right to use this coat of arms on June 30, 1977. The lily appeared on the city's coins for the first time in 1227. In the Middle Ages, Warburg was known as the Liliengrund. The meaning of the coat of arms colors and the lily have not been handed down, the lily may be interpreted as a symbol of Mary.
There was also another coat of arms with a red city gate on a gold background, the city wall, a wide gate tower and two narrow side towers. The blue hipped roof of the gate tower is crowned by two silver lilies; There are silver lilies on the blue pointed roofs of the side towers. In the blue gate opening is a silver heraldic lily. In the seal in the open city gate there is a bishop, probably the bishop of Paderborn . The oldest forms of this coat of arms appeared in 1254 and 1257. The city gate coat of arms was used for large seals, the small seals always only showed the lily.
Before 1977, a combination of both coats of arms was in use. The bishop was replaced by the lily on a blue background that filled the entire archway. Smaller lilies were on the tower roofs. With the inscription Stadt Warburg - Kreis Höxter , this coat of arms is still used as part of the official seal of the city.

Local dialect
Today High German is spoken in Warburg and the surrounding area . Warburg is located near the southern border of the Low German language area . The dialect in the Warburger Land is characterized by the Southeast Westphalian dialect or Low German (Low German language in the former Hochstift Paderborn). The Low German language is only spoken by a few elderly people in the Warburger Land . In the 19th century, the Low German language practically died out in Warburg Stadt. In the surrounding villages fewer and fewer young people learned Low German from their parents until the Low German language acquisition by their parents was completely lost around 1950. In addition, there are only a few courses offered to learn the Low German language. Occasional events are organized in which the participants speak in Low German. Some authors wrote some Low German texts and a dictionary. The moderate diphthongization of the old long î or the Westphalian break is characteristic of the Warburger Platt . There are East Westphalian and Lower Franconian elements in the language. Vocabulary and linguistic usage as they were to be found in Warburg between 1945 and 1975 were described separately.

Castles, palaces and manor houses
Desenberg Castle is a ruined castle on the Desenberg , which was probably built in the 8th century. Among other things, an accessible tower has been preserved. The Holsterburg is located southeast of the core city of Warburg and is an octagonal low castle from the 12th century.
The Welda Castle was built in 1734 as a representative baroque palace. In 1754 an orangery was added. A previous building may have existed as early as 1588. Dalheim Palace (also known as Gut Dalheim ) was built in 1698. The Wilhelminian style Villa Rothenburg in Daseburg from 1896 had a previous building around 1520. The Rothehaus estate in Daseburg below the Desenberg was probably built in the 16th century and rebuilt in the 19th century. The estate ( Haus Riepen ) in Dössel from 1667 was given its present form in 1896. A mansion from 1703 is the oldest part of the Übelngönne estate in Daseburg.
The Wartburg castle of Count Dodiko on the Warburger Burgberg (Wartberg) is partially built over and included in the fortifications.
Of the original hilltop castle of Calenberg Castle (also: Calenberg Castle), which was rebuilt in Baroque style in 1299 and 1880 , only the Palas and the Zehnthaus remain. Small remains of the Asselerburg in Ossendorf from the 12th to the early 14th century are still preserved, while only the location of the Asler Castle can be traced . From the castle Rozdehusen at Bonenburg and Wallburg on Gaulskopf in Ossendorf exist rudimentary remains of another castle on Gaulskopf is nothing left.
Medieval fortifications
The city fortifications, built in the 14th century, have been partially preserved with the remains of the medieval city walls of both cities, five defense towers and two city gates and are one of the main attractions for tourists. In the Middle Ages, Warburg was largely surrounded by a double ring of rubble stones through which the city gates of the old and new towns led.

The old town's citizens first built the connecting wall from the castle to the Johannistor tower . The Chattenturm was built halfway up the castle hill . The round Sack Tower (Sachsenturm) next to the Sack Gate , built around 1300 , was not erected until 1443. It is the most massive and tallest tower and was the landmark of Alt-Warburg. From 1446 it also served as a prison. The sack gate was near the western entrance to the episcopal castle and at the highest point of Sackstrasse. There, episcopal people competed with the interests of old and new town citizens. By 1830 the city of Warburg had around ten city towers and nine city gates. There were five town gates in the walls of the old town and four town gates in the new town, of which only the Sack Gate and the Johannistor Gate have survived. The other gates were demolished between 1801 and 1840, the shape of which has been partially handed down. The shape of the gate system was determined by the city fence , the space between the inner and outer walls. The Sack Gate or Petritor was developed as a typical twin gate, the outer arch of which was not rebuilt after it fell into disrepair. Today a memorial for victims of the Second World War has been set up in the Sack Tower, which can be visited via the castle cemetery.
Originally there were over twenty defense towers in the ring of the medieval fortifications. Five of them have been completely preserved: Biermanns , Chatten , Johannis and Sackturm in the old town and Frankenturm in the new town. The Efeuturm, only preserved with its tower stump, is located on the western double wall of the Neustadt between the Göringsgraben and the Bußdorfer Tor. The round buildings Sackturm and Biermannsturm have hexagonal skylights, the towers with a square floor plan, Johannis and Frankenturm , have a rectangular roof. The chat tower at the castle cemetery is open at the top and offers a wide view over the Diemeltal into the neighboring Hesse .
Churches and monasteries
The early Gothic Catholic Neustadtkirche St. Johannes Baptist was built around 1230 and consecrated in 1264.
The Catholic Old Town Church of St. Mary's Visitation is the second old town parish church. It was built from 1288 to 1297 and consecrated in 1299 after the Dominicans took over the Church of St. Maria in vinea . Inside the church there are works of art from different eras, such as B. a baroque cross altar.
The early Gothic Protestant church of St. Maria in vinea (Maria in the vineyard) was the parish church of the old town of Warburg until 1283. After a lengthy dispute between Paderborn's bishop Otto von Rietberg and the citizens of the old town, they took over the Dominicans who lived in Warburg in 1286 . It was the church of the first Dominican monastery until secularization in 1803. Since 1824 it has been the church of the Protestant community.
Today's Gymnasium Marianum has been in the former first Dominican monastery since 1628. At that time it was run by the Dominicans. After the monastery was dissolved by the Prussian government in 1826, it was expanded into a Prussian Progymnasium and in 1874 as a grammar school. Together with the town hall and the Protestant church, it is a building that shapes the cityscape of the old town. The Gothic cloister in the Marianum is one of the most important artistic legacies of the Dominicans along with the old town church.
The second neo-Gothic Dominican monastery of St. Maria Himmelfahrt was built from 1906 to 1915. After the Dominicans left again in 1995, it serves as the monastery of the Syrian Orthodox Church in Germany and the seat of an archbishop.
The Erasmus Chapel ( called Burgkapelle ) on the site of the former Wartburg on the Burgberg, today's castle cemetery, was built in the 11th century and contains the oldest preserved monument in the city with the Romanesque crypt of the former St. Andrew's Church in the basement . The chapel was renovated as a pilgrimage church in 1681.
In Warburg itself there was a beguinage in both the old town and the new town . The house in Beginenstraße was first mentioned in 1357 and probably went down at the end of the 15th century. In 1474 the Neustädter Beguinage in the Papengasse next to the rectory was first mentioned, which probably went down at the end of the 16th century.
There are three monasteries outside the city center:
- The monastery Hardehausen in the district Scherfede was founded in the 12th century. Today it serves the educational work of the Archdiocese of Paderborn .
- The Wormeln Monastery in Wormeln was founded as a women's monastery in the 13th century.
- A building in the direction of Ossendorf, which is used as a family recreation center, belongs to the motherhouse of the Serviam sister community in Germete, which was founded in 1922 .
Secular buildings
The town hall between the cities was built in 1568 as the joint town hall of the combined old and new town with two separate entrances for old and new towners on the border between the two towns. The Renaissance building was extended with a half-timbered floor in 1902/03. It stands on the site of the former Liebfrauentor, the only inner connection between the two cities. The town hall serves as a registry office and for celebrations.
The former old town hall is a large stone building made of limestone with three- stepped gables from 1336/37 and is located on the market in the old town of Warburg. Today the building, which was renovated in 1973, is used for catering and residential purposes.
The former Neustädter Rathaus was, comparable to that of the old town, also a large stone building and was located on the northern side of the Neustädter Marktplatz. It was demolished in 1803 and its stones a.o. used to pave the market square and the streets of the new town. During the urban redevelopment in 1983–1986, the foundation walls were briefly exposed. Today, floor markings in the pavement and a memorial stone remind of this former town hall.
Bourgeois residential buildings
In Warburg there are some well-preserved half-timbered buildings, some of which are among the oldest in North Rhine-Westphalia.

The Eckmännecken half-timbered house in the old town is a monument that is not only one of the oldest buildings of this type in Westphalia, but also significant for the development of half-timbered buildings. The four-column construction, which was new at the time, resulted in greater stability, which made it possible to build an upper floor and a storage facility for the first time. This construction method from the Warburg region influenced the development of half-timbered buildings in northern Germany as far as the North Sea coast.

Ever since the tourism association Warburg Südegge e. V., the tourist offer of leisure and sports opportunities as well as city tours has been steadily expanded. Since Germete's appointment as a health resort , the tourist infrastructure in and around Germete has been further improved. Furthermore, with the construction of the A 44 motorway and the expansion of the federal highways, travel by car and the Warburg IC train station have become much easier.
There are several key tourist themes, on the one hand nature (cycling, water sports, modern sports etc.) and on the other hand culture (art, castles, monuments, cultural events, culinary offerings etc.). Due to its picturesque townscape, Warburg is a day trip destination for guests from the surrounding area and the nearest metropolitan areas (Ruhr area, Hanover, Rhine-Main). The local traditional festivals (rifle festivals, Kälkenfest, church festivals, Schnatgang , medieval spectacle , October week) attract non-residents to the region. Family recreation is another tourist area that is being expanded.
Compared to 2008, the number of overnight stays rose by 4.3% to 94,300. A large part of the overnight stays is recorded in the well-used educational establishments. The number of day tourists has also increased in recent years.

There were hospitals in Warburg as early as the Middle Ages. The St. Petri-Hospital Warburg , which was built in the years 1923 to 1926 on Hüffertstrasse, arose from them . The building was later expanded and in 1970 a new multi-storey building was added. Both buildings were demolished in 2014. On the site of the former St. Petri Hospital, there is now the Helios Klinikum Warburg , a hospital operated by the Helios Kliniken Group .

The city of Warburg already had organized fire fighters from the citizenry in the Middle Ages. With the Prussian fire regulations at the beginning of the 19th century, the surrounding communities were also obliged to provide for fire fighting. From around 1850 the first fire brigades were formed in Ossendorf and Scherfede in the form of fire fighting and syringe teams . After the Franco-Prussian War of 1870/71 , former soldiers founded volunteer fire brigades based on the model of the French Pompier Corps, as in the Wormeln district . In the twisted village of Welda, the southernmost part of the city, the fire brigade was first mentioned in 1882. The volunteer fire brigade was founded in the core town of Warburg in 1889. After the major fire in Hohenwepel in 1912, which destroyed 23 buildings, volunteer fire brigades were founded in Dössel, Hohenwepel and Menne.
The volunteer fire brigade of the city of Warburg was established in 1975 from the Warburg fire brigade and the local fire brigades in the Warburg-Land office. The fire brigades Scherfede and Warburg were converted into fire engines and the others into fire fighting groups.
education
History and former educational institutions
The first school lessons were given in parish schools, which arose with both parishes and were transferred to city schools by the 14th century. The earliest references to Warburg schools are from the year 1317; in Groten Breff, one school each in the old town and new town were mentioned in 1436. In the 16th century, especially by Otto Beckmann, humanistic education was introduced.
A beguinage cooperative was the first to take care of the education of girls in the 14th century. Public education for girls was not introduced until 1665. For the surrounding villages, general schooling is only documented from the 17th century.
The former agricultural school existed from 1885 to 1971. It was one of the oldest agricultural schools in Germany and was called the Agricultural Winter School in the first few years. The founding director ( conductor ) was the old town chaplain Krekeler. The school's board of trustees included the conductor, the mayor, the district administrator and three landowners. The lessons were initially held in the restaurant between the cities and then in winter in various houses in the old town. Some high school teachers helped out with teaching. After a few years, the migrant workplace on Landfurtweg was available as a teaching building and from 1922 the school was able to move to a new building on old Bahnhofsweg 38. There was a boarding school for foreign students. The two-year winter school consisted of a lower and an upper class. The number of pupils fluctuated between 23 in the first year (1885/86) and 145 (1920/21). From 1927 a girls department specializing in home economics was added. Classes for this department were held in a building on Kasseler Straße and, from 1955/56, in a new building next to the agricultural school.
Today's educational institutions
Today the city has a total of 13 general education schools, five of which are elementary schools, two secondary schools, one secondary school, two grammar schools and three special schools. In 2007, 319 teachers taught 4,160 students at the city's schools, 25.3% of them in elementary schools, 11.4% in secondary schools, 14.2% in secondary schools, 40.5% in grammar schools and 8.6 % at the special schools.
The Gymnasium Marianum was a nationally known humanistic high school. The foreign students were accommodated in the city in facilities similar to boarding schools. Today the Marianum is a state-approved high school with around 590 students.
Today's Hüffertgymnasium was a middle school for girls for a long time and only became a girls' grammar school after 1955. Today it is a high school for girls and boys.
The Graf-Dodiko-Schule , a Catholic elementary school in the city of Warburg on Graf-Dodiko-Weg, was opened with the name Neustadtschule in 1894 on the former school route. With the municipal reorganization in 1975, the path was renamed Graf-Dodiko-Weg after the builder of the Warburg Castle on the Burgberg. The school was renamed on September 7, 2007.
From 2009 to 2019 Warburg was a place of study at the Ostwestfalen-Lippe University of Applied Sciences with other locations in Lemgo , Höxter and Detmold .
