history

House Wenne was first mentioned in a document in 1296. The estate was the ancestral home of the Herren von der Wenne . The following owners were the von Cobbenrode family towards the end of the 14th century and the noble Rump zur Wenne family from 1412 onwards. Shares in the Wenne house (Tor Wene house) and the goods belonging to it were also held by the governors of Elspe (Gibeldey), who sold them to Rotger Rump and Mrs. Stine on October 1, 1413. In 1659 the domicile was expanded into a two-story mansion with a hipped roof. The moat created at that time is no longer available today.

The male line of the Rump family died out in 1673 and Wenne fell to the colonel and prince-bishop-hildesheim's hunter Ignatz von Weichs, whose descendants live in the Wenne house to this day. The family runs an agricultural and forestry business there. The manor house has remained in the possession of the von Weichs family to this day . In the late 18th century, Clemens August von Weichs , who was born there, had the facility redesigned.
