geography

location

Huchzen is located in the south of Hüllhorst and is the southernmost area of ​​the former Lübbecke district. In terms of nature, the area belongs to the Ravensberger Mulde and is completely drained by the Mühlenbach to the south into the Werre . In the very south of the area lies at 68  m above sea level. NHN the lowest point in the municipality of Hüllhorst. There are several forests in the area, the largest, the deer bush , measuring 7.5 hectares .

Townscape

Huchzen can hardly be called a village, there is neither a village church nor a closed village center. The former municipality consists rather of individual, scattered individual farms . Historically, the farmers Geverdingsen and Huchzen were located in the area, which were spun off from the rural community of Tengern on May 26, 1906, and from then on formed the rural community of Huchzen. Nevertheless, one differentiates between the places

  • Big cheers,
  • Small cheers,
  • Geverdingsen, (including Schnepels Hof )

Significantly, a large number of the inhabitants have the family name Huchzermeyer . Huchzen was able to keep its rural appearance. Gisela Schwarze aptly states: "Some villages have been able to retain their characteristic image in the fight against glass blocks and modern styling, such as Huchzen with its black and white half-timbered houses and red tile roofs." Agriculture is still an important industry today. Selling potatoes on the farm is of certain importance. There is a tavern in the southern part of the village (location Rehmerloher Str. 291), which is actually just outside the former municipality in Rehmerloh.

history

From May 26, 1906 to December 31, 1972, Huchzen was an independent municipality in the Hüllhorst district. On January 1, 1973 the place was incorporated into Hüllhorst.

In 1946 the place had 125 inhabitants in 1965, a few years before the regional reform, then 93 inhabitants. With 48 inhabitants per km² at last, Huchzen had one of the lowest population densities in the Lübbecke district , which was more than a factor of 10 lower than in the state of North Rhine-Westphalia.

The place was spun off from Tengern in 1909. The reason for the acquired independence as a community lies in the fact that the residents once went to church, although they belonged to the Hüllhorst office , not in neighboring Tengern , but in Mennighüffen (now part of the city of Löhne ). According to the main statute of the municipality of Hüllhorst, Huchzen is now fully counted as part of Tengern in statistics.

Reorganization 1906

By royal decree of May 26, 1906, the rural communities of Tengern and Huchzen were formed from the area of ​​the rural community of Tengern. In the letter from the Prussian Minister of the Interior, IV b 1205 to the district president of the then administrative district of Minden it said:

The King's Majesty, by the highest decree of May 19, d. Js. to approve that the farming communities Huchzen and Geverdingsen in the Lübbecke district are separated from the rural community of Tengern and that a rural community with the name Huchzen is formed from them.

politics

Municipal council

After the founding of the Federal Republic of Germany, four municipal council elections took place in Huchzen. A special feature was that the Huchzen group of voters was the only “party” to run. In the “election” on October 28, 1965, there was no election because there was only one nomination with six applicants. All those proposed formed the municipal council by law. On March 19, 1961, the Huchzen electoral group received 124 votes, then on September 27, 1964 114 votes, and on November 9, 1969, 64 votes, but always 100 percent of the valid votes. The municipal council consisted of six seats until 1961 and then seven. Mayors were Heinrich Kleffmann from 1956 to 1964 and Gustav Meier until 1972.

Others

As the only municipality in the Hüllhorst office, Huchzen did not belong to the "Wiehengebirge West" water supply association, which was founded in 1960 and which all other municipalities of the office had joined in 1966. Huchzen did not have its own school. From July 1968 the community belonged to the Schnathorst-Holsen-Huchzen-Tengern school association (which Bröderhausen also joined in October of the same year).
