history
Haubourdin is first mentioned in a deed of donation from 1127, when Simon of Vermandois, Bishop of Tournai and Noyon , donated the local church to Abbess Marie of Denain. The community is then referred to as Arboden, Harboden, Harbodin, Haburdin and Habourdin.
Haubourdin was owned by the Burgraves of Lille from the 13th to the 17th centuries . Then the place came to the House of Luxemburg-Ligny , the House of Burgundy and the Counts of Saint-Pol . King Henry IV sold Haubourdin to Nicolas du Chastel, Seigneur de la Howarderie. On October 3, 1605, Haubourdin and the surrounding area, which until then had belonged to Hainaut , were raised to the status of vice-county. The last Viscount d'Haubourdin died on the scaffold in 1794 .
