history

The place was first mentioned in 1344. Over the years the spelling of the place changed:

• 1447 "Unckelkusen"
• 1560 "Unkelkausen"
• 1572 "Unkellkusen"
• 1600 "Uncklingkhausen"

The current spelling "Unglinghausen" was first found in 1724.

Teaching was probably started around 1660 after the Thirty Years' War . In 1744 a school house was built. The bell of this school was cast in wood claw in 1719 and served until 1920. In 1926 a new school was built. This was expanded in 1955 and 1965, from 1969 all primary school students went to Eckmannshausen . Kindergarten children have been going to Eckmannshausen since the mid-1970s.

The cemetery was laid out in 1826, a memorial was erected in 1957, and a cemetery hall was added in 1970. Until 1960 (Protestant) church services took place in an old club house, then a new building was built.

In 1893, in the upper Langenbachtal between Unglinghausen and Herzhausen, an upper gallery of the newly muted iron and copper mine Waidmann was created. This reached a length of 140 m. In 1907 a lower, 204 m long tunnel was created. However, the ore yields were not as high as hoped, so the mine was closed again on October 26, 1910.

In 1911 a public telephone station was created, in 1921 electrical lines and in 1956 the water line were laid. The Unglinghausen fire fighting train was founded in 1937.

On July 28, 1940, the first British bombs fell on Unglinghausen.

Until the end of 1968, the place belonged to the office of Netphen and became part of the new large community of Netphen during the municipal reorganization on January 1, 1969, and since 2000 a district.
