history

Vinsebeck is located on the western edge of the fertile Steinheim basin approx. 25 km northeast. Paderborn, approx. 20 km south of Detmold and approx. 40 km southeast of Bielefeld.

At the turn of the ages, the Germanic tribe of the Cherusci settled in the area of ​​today's Vinsebeck . 'Hermann' the Cheruscan expelled the Romans in 9 AD (Varus battle in the Teutoburg Forest). At the time of the Great Migration in around 500, Saxons were pushing into the area from the northeast. West of the Weser there were 'Westphalia' and 'Engern', east of the Weser 'Ostfalen', there was also a division into districts, around Steinheim the Weti-Gau = wheat district, Lößboden. In the middle of the 8th century, the Franconian Wars of Conquest and Christianization also reached Vinsebeck, and in 783 the decisive battle took place near Detmold. 784 celebrates Charlemagne Christmas in Schieder (14 km east). The appointment of counts as imperial officials later led to hereditary territorial rule. In the period around 800, dioceses were also founded, including a. Paderborn. 80% of the land was then forest.

The oldest known mention of the name Vinsebeck can be found in a document from Emperor Konrad II dated August 3, 1031: Konrad donated the Sannanabiki estate - today's Sandebeck - with properties in eleven named locations in the County of Widukinds in Wetigau to the episcopal church in Paderborn , including Villa Vinsebiki (…, ut predium Sannanabiki dictum in istis villis Hornan, Frodinctorp, Vinesbiki, Rafseti, Knechtahusun, Buckinhusun, Bennanhusun, Scuni, Berchem, Homan, Holthusun situm…). The interpretation of the place name is uncertain, possibly (court at) the brook of Winno . In 1237 there was a parish in Vinsebeck : Henricus plebanus (pastor) in Vinsbike is mentioned as a witness in a document from Bishop Bernhard IV of Paderborn . In 1242, a Hildeboldus de Vinsbeke is mentioned in a document from Count Volkwin IV. Von Schwalenberg . Various feudal lords ruled the area until around 1350. The plague depopulated the area.

From 1350, the von der Lippe family built a stately home in Vinsebeck, possibly near the Bleiche . Residents with their own farmland were divided into Meier (four horses) and Halbmeier (two horses); Without their own land they were kötter (own house), housebuilders and residents (tenants). Later there were also new farmers (on common land). The court service was carried out cautiously in three groups , this term still occurs today in shooting clubs. The Lamwert (= Landwehr) in the north and the Schanze in the south, the latter also with a wall against sudden floods from the Siek 'Pleistern', indicate certain defenses . From the 15th century, inheritance and family disputes among the nobility and knighthood led to devastating disputes such as the Everstein feud and the Soest feud . In 1587 the Counts of Lippe held criminal jurisdiction (field names Galgenkämpen, Galgenbusch). During this time, Stina Werneke was burned as a witch.

After the Lippe family converted to Protestantism in 1605, the current village church was built with an attached burial chapel (which was converted into a choir in 1850). In the course of the Counter Reformation in 1662, the rule and with it the village population as well as the church became Catholic again (St. John). The church building was expanded in 1668 with two large cross wings. Plain on the outside, it has magnificent baroque altars and Renaissance epitaphs on the inside. The current tower followed in 1740. In the Thirty Years War , due to the destruction, villages and some of their clearing were given up and reforested (today called desolations). There were also raids by 'Tollen Christian' from Braunschweig and Tilly's troops. A short time later, in 1672, cholera and dysentery epidemics struck the area, and since the end of the epidemics, a praise procession (pledge procession) has been held in Vinsebeck for the feast of Johannes' beheading on August 29th.

The lords and barons of the Lippe , who built the moated castle as a family seat in 1720, shaped the development of Vinsebeck . Justus Wehmer from Hildesheim had the palace built in the late baroque or régance style in 1721. In the Seven Years War in 1761 11,000 French lay on the heights from Nieheim via Vinsebeck to Horn against Allied Hanoverians and English, but they withdrew without a battle. This is probably where the name Frankenberg comes from . After the von der Lippe family died out in 1767, the rule fell through inheritance to the Wolff Metternich zur Gracht family (Wolff / Hofgeismar married in Metternich / Middle Rhine, current name after the canal was built in Liblar near Erftstadt). In 1779 the village of Vinsebeck is described as part of the Principality of Paderborn in the Steinheim (Westphalia) office . In 1796, Imperial Count Werner Wolff Metternich was the first count to move into the canal at Vinsebeck Castle.

At the turn of the 18th and 19th centuries, Napoleon's brother Jérôme Bonaparte ruled the Kingdom of Westphalia from Kassel . Vinsebeck fell to the Kingdom of Prussia, to which it initially only belonged until 1806, together with the Prince Diocese of Paderborn. From 1806 to 1813 the place belonged to the Kingdom of Westphalia (Fulda department, Höxter district, canton Steinheim). During the Wars of Liberation in 1813 Prussian troops came to Vinsebeck with Cossacks. From 1813 to 1815 Vinsebeck belonged to the Prussian government between the Weser and the Rhine. The administrative district of Minden was established in 1815, and the districts of Höxter and Brakel were founded and merged in 1831. In 1841 the village became part of the Nieheim Steinheim office. After serfdom was replaced in Prussia at the beginning of the 19th century following disputes with the nobility, all services and real taxes to the House of Lippe were finally replaced in 1850.

In the middle of the 19th century, mining began in the 'Rote Kuhle' and 'Graue Kuhle' quarries in Vinsebeck's 'Buntsandsteindom' (underground rock system). - Limestone quarry, hard corrugated lime, in the 'Flimmick' until 1876, gypsum was mined at Wintrup, initially for fertilization in opencast mining, after 1945 as cement aggregate in underground mining. After underground mining collapsed, mining was abandoned in 1966. After the quarries in Baumerstal began to be dismantled in 1870, the first quarry stone houses were built. The first brick houses were built from 1900. The old school (today's Volksbank) was built in 1877. The great reorganization of the corridor followed in 1882, many paths and unproductive areas were given to the community.

When the production of very good quality mineral water began in 1905, plans were forged for a spa, but they got stuck. Vinsebeck was electrified in 1921, and the new elementary school was built five years later. The country road to Steinheim was the first road in the village to be paved in 1939. In the same year, the upper mill burned down, which was the last central threshing floor and sawmill with water wheel and steam engine. Vinsebeck was captured by American troops on April 5, 1945 after brief fighting. A German soldier fell and three were wounded. The captured German soldiers stood with their hands behind their heads on the wall opposite Schneider's house. After the end of the war, the main road was also paved in 1950. In the same year the marching band Vinsebeck appeared in public for the first time at the Schützenfest. The central water supply, sewer system and sewage treatment plant were built in the Bülte in 1961 from a well on Elschenberg , which was abandoned around 1981 and connected to Steinheim. The old oak alley at the entrance to Steinheim fell in 1966 for road expansion.

On January 1, 1964, Vinsebeck ceded parts of the area to the new community of Vordereichholz .

On January 1, 1970, Vinsebeck was incorporated into the town of Steinheim. Street names were introduced. In 1969, the cemetery chapel was also built, previously there was only laying out at home. After 110 years, the so-called monastery (branch of the Order of the Poor Maidservants of Christ , motherhouse in Dernbach / Westerwald) was abandoned and the half-timbered building was demolished. The sisters also ran the so-called play school. Predecessor from kindergarten. The chapel, however, remained. Today there is a kindergarten on the site. In 1976, garbage collection was also introduced. The quarries stopped mining in 1968–76. In 1977/88, seven houses were demolished, old trees were removed and the churchyard and castle park walls were put back for the new through town. During this time, underground supply lines were laid and new street lighting was installed.

In 2007, the school was expanded and converted into a community elementary school Steinheim-Südwest An den Linden for elementary school students from Vinsebeck, Bergheim, Sandebeck, Grevenhagen and Ottenhausen. In 2010, a birthstone with the names of the children born last year was set up for the first time and an oak tree was planted on Eichholzer Weg. The entry is voluntary; the sponsor is the mineral water company Schöttker ( Graf Metternich-Brunnen ). In 2012 the first citizen's cycle path in the direction of Horn was opened.

Attractions

The town's sights include the parish church and Vinsebeck Castle of the Counts of Wolff-Metternich , which was built in the 18th century by the barons of the Lippe and, with its white facade, has already served as a backdrop for numerous feature films. Here was u. a. 1957 the Hans Albers film The Great Bomberg . The late editor of the time , Marion Dönhoff , spent part of her life after her from the Red Army from East Prussia had fled. The castle is still owned by the Counts of Metternich and is now the residence of a member of the count's family.

The moated castle Vinsebeck is one of the most beautiful castles in Westphalia. The baroque building from 1720 stands on a square island, which is surrounded by a 17 m wide, water-filled moat. A side bridge leads to the terraced area in front of the main front. The garden surrounding the castle with Neptune's fountain and stone figures is only partially preserved in its baroque form. The interior furnishings of the Italian room, the Driburg room, the green room, the Moorish room and the Chinese room are largely preserved from the construction period and make the castle so attractive. The castle is owned by Count Simeon Wolff Metternich.
