history

Village house in Hengsbeck

In Hengsbeck (then Hengstebeke) was one of the Fronhöfe of the Meschede Monastery . According to a document from 1314, the Schultenhof in Hengsbeck had new afteryards in the towns of Isingheim, Kükelheim, Sallinghausen, Ober- und Niedereslohe and Wenholthausen, which were subordinate to the main courtyard.

Early clues about the size of the place can be found in an appraisal register (used to collect taxes) for the year 1543. According to this, there were 5 persons subject to appraisal in “Hengsbecke”; the number should have agreed with the farms or houses that existed at the time.

The Hengsbeck Tambour Corps was founded in 1925. In 1975, Hengsbeck stayed in the new community of Eslohe after the municipal reorganization in North Rhine-Westphalia.
