Tungerloh-Capellen is a farming community in Gescher in the Borken district .
history
Tungerloh-Capellen together with the village of Gescher and the four peasant communities Tungerloh-Pröbsting , Estern , Harwick and Büren formed the parish of Gescher and thus belonged to the Braemgau in the prince-bishopric of Münster . The prince-bishopric was dissolved in 1803 and the parish of Gescher fell under the rule of Salm from 1803 to 1811 and was placed under France. The village and parish were combined under the name Mairi . The entire Münsterland fell to Prussia in 1815. In 1816 a new division of the district was made. With Tungerloh-Capellen, Gescher became part of the Coesfeld district and Tungerloh-Capellen became an independent municipality that merged with Tungerloh-Pröbsting, Harwick, Estern, Büren and Gescher to form an official association. At that time 639 people lived in the 1514 hectare place. On July 1, 1969, the place was incorporated into Gescher. As a result of the district reform, Gescher was separated from the Coesfeld district on January 1, 1975 and assigned to the Borken district.
Castles and manors
There were three castles or manors in the area of Capellen. The impassable border strip between core and West Munsterland ran through the Tungerloher Mark. Several castles stood in this border strip. The strip was secured by a strong Landwehr .
House Landwering
The Landwering house stood in the middle of the border strip. The castle was mentioned in 1268. The district court was also located on the farm. One owner was mentioned in a document in 1386, he called himself Mr. Tor Lantwer , he probably supervised the protective weir . The district court, which was also called the free chair after Charlemagne, was held on the castle grounds. The castle was permanently inhabited at the time. There is no tradition of appearance. In the 16th and 17th centuries the Junker von Tinnen was the owner, at the end of the 18th century the house belonged to the Canon of St. Mauritz, Franz Arnhold Vagedes and around 1830 to the President Scheffer Boichorst.
Knight's Castle House Hall
The knight's castle Haus Hall was a fortified property with ramparts and moats. The castle was the ancestral seat of the von Kettelhaak family, who sold Haus Hall at the beginning of the 16th century. From 1652 to 1678 Johann von Uterwick and then until 1707 Adam Markus von Uterwick were the owners. After that, the owners changed several times. In 1837 the house went to the Bishop of Münster and a home for mentally handicapped people was set up.
Lehninborg
There is evidence that the castle was inhabited by Hermann Stroing since 1659. Since 1674 it has been called desert. The site went into the possession of the War Commissioner Dr. from Hamm over, he had the walls removed and new trenches dug. The result was a rectangular square on which he had a principal house and outbuildings built. This facility fell into disrepair and was finally demolished in 1840. The site was parceled out and sold.
Attractions
