history

1120 is the first documentary mention as Ypponhusen ( Ypponhusen / Ipinkhusen ). However, there are indications that the first settlement can be dated as early as 600 to 900 AD. In the earliest times Ippinghausen belonged to the nobles and vice counts of Naumburg .

In 1435 Ippinghausen is mentioned as a desert . In that year, Landgrave Ludwig I of Hesse enfeoffed Reinhard von Dalwigk and his nephew Friedrich IV von Hertingshausen with court, services and inclines in the two desert areas of Ippinghausen and Zabenhausen (between Ippinghausen and Leckringhausen). In 1488 this fiefdom passed to the Lords of Bicken, and in 1522 to Wolff von Gudenberg . The ownership of the city of Wolfhagen, which owned the Ippinghausen district, remained unaffected by this.

Two military roads led through the village, one from Kassel via Korbach to Westphalia , the other from the south, coming from Fritzlar , via Naumburg, Ippinghausen, grazing the Zabenhausen desert, past Leckringhausen via Wolfhagen and Volkmarsen also to Westphalia.

The Ippinghausen district was in the old border region between Saxony and Franconia with a significant Saxon influence. Even later, the area was borderland. A place in the "Wiesental des Weidelsberg" is marked by old boundary stones; this is called "Dreifürsteneck" ( Hessen , Kurmainz and Waldeck ). In addition to the year 1720, the boundary stones bear the Hessian lion , the Mainz wheel and the Waldecker star.

Jacob Grimm stayed in Ippinghausen in 1809 to collect folk songs.

On December 31, 1971, the previously independent community of Ippinghausen was incorporated into the city of Wolfhagen.

church

Already at the time of Pope Innocent III. (1198–1216) a chapel is occupied in Ippinghusen. In the middle of the 13th century, Volkwin von Naumburg donated the chapel to the Archdiocese of Riga (it is not Volkwin von Naumburg zu Winterstätten ). In 1445 the archbishopric ceded it to the Landgrave Ludwig von Hessen. Today's baroque hall church was built in 1772. The previous church was probably destroyed in the Thirty Years War, according to an inscription in the pulpit it was rebuilt on March 18, 1650, partly destroyed by fire in 1750 and rebuilt in 1772.

Local legends

The siege of the Weidelsburg

The Landgrave of Hesse once besieged the Weidelsburg in order to arrest the feudal knight Reinhard von Dalwigk . When the knight and his followers could no longer hold out, his wife Agnes went to the landgrave as negotiator. He admitted that all women were allowed to leave the castle with as much of their dearest possessions as they could carry. Agnes now carried her husband out to the castle on her back. When the landgrave refused to let her get away with this, she replied: What other things would be dear and precious to me if I knew my master behind me in danger of death? You have allowed me to take what I love most; therefore I have taken my dearest treasure. The landgrave let them both go.

The white maiden from the Weidelberge

A shepherd tended his animals on the Weidelsberg. A woman dressed in white appeared to him and handed him a white flower. She led him into a vault under the Weidelsburg that was full of gold and silver and allowed him to take as much of it as he could carry. The poor shepherd could hardly believe his luck and gathered as much of the treasure as he could. As she left the vault, she warned him not to forget the best. But the shepherd did not listen to her and forgot the flower. Immediately all treasures vanished into thin air.
