history

Mühlinghausen's origins lay in the medieval peasantry Mühlinghausen in the Schwelm court of the Wetter district of Brandenburg . After the conquest by Napoleon Bonaparte , the county of Mark was taken over by his brother-in-law Joachim Murat on April 24, 1806 together with the previously annexed Duchy of Kleve on the left bank of the Rhine, the Duchy of Berg on the right bank of the Rhine , the counties of Dortmund , Limburg , and the northern part of the Principality of Münster and others Territories united to form the Grand Duchy of Berg .

Soon after the takeover, the French administration in the Grand Duchy began to introduce new and modern administrative structures based on the French model. By August 3, 1806, this municipal reform replaced and unified the old Brandenburg offices and lords. It provided for the creation of departments , arrondissements , cantons and municipalities (called Mairies from the end of 1808) and broke with the old nobility prerogatives in local government. On November 14th, 1808, this process was completed after a reorganization of the first structuring of 1806, the old farmers were often retained and were assigned to the respective Mairies or cantons as rural communities. The peasantry Mühlinghausen was assigned as a rural community to the Mairie Ennepe in the canton of Schwelm in the arrondissement of Hagen .

In 1813 the French withdrew from the Grand Duchy after the defeat in the Battle of Leipzig and from the end of 1813 it fell under the provisional administration of Prussia in the so-called Generalgouvernement between Weser and Rhine , which was finally awarded it by the resolutions of the Congress of Vienna in 1815. With the formation of the Prussian province of Westphalia in 1815, the existing administrative structures were largely retained and converted into Prussian districts , mayorships and municipalities while maintaining the French borders . Mühlinghausen has now become a rural community in the Ennepe mayor of the Hagen district .

In 1839 Mühlinghausen was divided into two school districts, Berninghausen (middle part) and Rüggeberg (southern part). In addition, there were individual places in the neighboring Büttenberg and Voerder school districts. The places and places to live in Mühlinghausen at this time included (original spelling):

In 1818 a total of 580 people lived in the community of Mühlinghausen. According to the table of localities and distances from the government district of Arnsberg , the community had a total of 1,153 inhabitants in 1838, which was divided into 25 Catholic and 1,128 Protestant community members. The living quarters of the mayor's office comprised two schools, 106 residential houses, 29 factories and mills and 54 agricultural buildings.

With the entry into force of the Prussian rural community order for the province of Westphalia in 1843 the superior mayor's office of Ennepe was converted into the Ennepe office, Mühlinghausen remained in the community association. On April 1, 1887, the Schwelm district was re-established from the western part of the Hagen district. The Ennepe office with Mühlinghausen was now part of the new district.

The community encyclopedia for the province of Westphalia from 1887 gives a population of 2,039 for the community of Mühlinghausen (1,959 Protestant, 50 Catholic and 30 other Christian beliefs), who lived in 41 places with a total of 196 houses and 391 households.
