history

The town was first settled in the 10th century in charters of the monastery Corvey mentioned as a fortified farm "Pykulessun" and received on 31 July 1318, the town charter . She was always a part of the diocese of Paderborn , and was the official residence of the Bailiff Peckelsheim. The Peckelsheim Castle of the von Spiegel zu Peckelsheim family , built in the 14th century, was abandoned in the 18th century after many changes. Among other things, the three-storey tower house from the 14th century with a coat of arms from 1535 has been preserved.

The place became Prussian in 1803 and in the meantime belonged to the Kingdom of Westphalia . The city was destroyed several times by city fires, but has been rebuilt again and again and has retained its original floor plan to this day, which is reflected in the arrangement of the streets. There are hardly any historical buildings left. The parish church of the Assumption of Mary is a characteristic building, as is the Evangelical Trinity Church (a Schinkel building ) from 1840/1841.

In 1953 a 117.8 gram heavy meteorite fell in a forest near Peckelsheim . It was classified as a diogenite .

Until 1974 Peckelsheim was still an independent titular town in the former Warburg district . Since January 1, 1975 it has been a district and the administrative seat of the newly founded city of Willebadessen. It belongs to the new Höxter district .
