history

In 1570 the Protestant Count Erich von Hoya took over Mastholte from Catholic Wadersloh and founded the parish Mastholte, which included Mastholte and the neighboring community of Moese ( Low German for " swamp "). From then on, the subjects were also Protestant until the County of Rietberg became Catholic in 1601 and the residents of Mastholte were re-educated to be Catholics with the help of Jesuits in 1610 . Since the old chapel was dilapidated, construction of the parish church of St. James the Elder in Moese began in 1653 and was inaugurated in 1659. Material from the old chapel was used. This started the first problems with naming the places. Since the Mastholte church was now in Moese, many residents of both places also called themselves Mastholter.

In 1838 the brief break Prussian administration the peasantry Mastholte and Moese to rural communities. In a dispute between Moese and the neighboring community of Westenholz, the Prussian Ministry of the Interior decided in 1857 that it belonged to Moese. Due to the prevailing poverty there, both places previously viewed the area as belonging to the other place.

Since the 19th century Moese belonged to the office of Rietberg in the district of Wiedenbrück. By the law to reorganize the Wiedenbrück district and parts of the Bielefeld district , the municipality of Moese was incorporated into the city of Rietberg on January 1, 1970. It went on together with the former neighboring community Mastholte in the Rietberg village of Mastholte.
