history
In 1154 the village of Wülfingerode was first mentioned as Wluingesrode . The place was and is characterized by agriculture.
The manor was owned by the Barons von Angern-Stilke from 1838 to 1929 and owned by the von Bismarck family from 1936 until it was expropriated by the land reform in 1945 , together with the estate in Sollstedt .
During the Second World War , an American "Flying Fortress" of the Boeing B-17 type with a nine-man crew crashed on April 29, 1944 near Wülfingerode after being shot at by German fighter planes . Around April 9, 1945, the site was occupied by US troops and at the beginning of July, like all of Thuringia, passed on to the Red Army . This made it part of the Soviet Zone and, from 1949, of the GDR . In the 1950s, the forced collectivization of agriculture also took place in Wülfingerode.
From April 9, 1993 to May 1, 1996 the place was a member of the Eichsfelder Pforte administrative association . On May 1, 1996 Wülfingerode was incorporated into Sollstedt .
