history

The name suggests a moist area covered with thistles . In documents from the Middle Ages, the name Dyselbrok appears first , while Leistrup is referred to as Leesentrop in 1394 . In 1488 Meiersfeld is mentioned as Tom Eggersfelde , later also as Mekerysfelde . In addition to Leistrup, Döringsfeld, Schönemark and the Leistruper Wald were also owned by the Brunswick noblemen, who, however, had given the residents the right of use as a fief in return for appropriate taxes. The arable land was expanded by clearing. Over time, oak and hornbeam trees developed on the fallow land . The fruits were used as fodder ( Hudewirtschaft ) and the meadows as pasture. The hude and fattening rights acquired at that time were still valid into the 19th century. The municipality of Leistrup-Meiersfeld (with Diestelbruch) was part of the Detmold administrative office in Lippe since the middle of the 19th century . In 1911 the community had a total of 632 inhabitants, including 333 in Diestelbruch, 281 in Meiersfeld and 18 in Leistrup. On January 1, 1970, the Leistrup-Meiersfeld community was incorporated into the district town of Detmold. Its largest suburb, Diestelbruch, gave the Detmold district its name, which has existed since then.
