history

To protect his land, the bishop of Münster, Burchard von Holte, had a simple castle (or rather a permanent house ) built in the spring of 1115 : “dat hues to Dulmene”. In 1121 the castle was destroyed by Duke Lothar von Sachsen . It was not until 1137 that the border was secured again at the instigation of Bishop Werner with a castle in Hausdülmen. In the 13th century, the four Burgmannshöfe became eight. The castle chapel, which was renewed in 1231 and consecrated to Saint Mauritius, was also located there. In front of the castle there were also houses and stables of the servants because there was no place for them in the castle. The so-called freedom was secured against attackers by flood ditches and walls. However, the value of the castle steadily declined due to the advent of firearms in the 14th and 15th centuries. Last in 1451 riders of the Duke of Kleve were stationed in the castle. After that, the castle no longer had an important military role.

Thanks to its function as a sovereign residence, Bishop Franz von Waldeck was a guest in Haus Dülmen in 1532 when he ruled his diocese from there. He broke the rule of the Anabaptists in Münster from the Dülmen house . After Münster's conquest, the leaders Jan van Leyden , Bernhard Knipperdolling and Bernhard Krechting were imprisoned in the keep for six months in 1535 (and then executed in Münster on January 22, 1536). The Duke of Alba’s troops destroyed the castle in the Spanish-Dutch War (1568-1609), with the exception of the tower, which was torn down towards the end of the 18th century. The official administration left Hausdülmen in 1657 and moved to Dülmen. The history of the Landesburg Haus Dülmen ends in the 16th century. It was little used and gradually fell apart. In 1704 the castle was only inhabited by the hunter. In 1777 the keep and the remains of the curtain wall were demolished. From the castle "Haus Dülmen" the place "Hausdülmen" gradually developed. (The current chapel from the 17th century is now the oldest building in Hausdülmen.)

In the 19th century, textile production was the economic center. After that, in the course of industrialization, most weavers became factory workers or farmers. The First World War passed Hausdülmen almost without a trace, even in the Second World War only three buildings were destroyed. However, there was a prisoner of war camp, the "Dullmen Camp", located near Hausdülmen during the First World War. The commandant's house is still preserved from the camp and is now used as a residential building. The camp's cemetery was relocated to its present location in Friedensallee around 1965, and around 600 deceased prisoners of war , mainly from Russia and Romania, rest in the cemetery of honor .

In 1929, the Haltern office of the Coesfeld district was assigned to the Recklinghausen district. The district boundary thus ran through Hausdülmen, as it were, while smaller parts of the village were located in the Recklinghausen district. On April 1, 1930 Hausdülmen lost territorial sovereignty and was assigned to the parish of Dülmen . On January 1, 1975 the parish of Dülmen was incorporated into the city of Dülmen together with Hausdülmen under a new border.

The name Pielen , which is popularly used to refer to the Hausdülmenerinnen and Hausdülmener, goes back to an extensive goose keeping. This is evidenced by the delivery of goose feathers to the Bishop of Münster in 1656. Today the village fountain with its goose shepherd and geese reminds of this story.
