history

Weiberg was founded around 1500 after the destruction of Hepern . In 1712 a chapel was built in the village by the Bürener Jesuits . It was canceled three years later because it was badly damaged in a fire that same year. At the same place the Jesuits built a statue dedicated to Saint Agatha with the images of Saint Agatha and Saint Joseph.

In 1747 the foundation stone was laid for the Weiberg parish church (St. Birgitta) , which was completed on September 26, 1751. The first pastor of Weiberg was Franz Godfried Caesmann, he took over the parish on November 1, 1752. At that time, Weiberg was subject to rent and service to the Büren house and later to the Jesuits. The community owned extensive " wood just " which were replaced in 1877. From this time on Weiberg was not granted any deputation wood.

During the Seven Years' War , many armies of Hesse, Hanoverians, English, Scots and French moved through the town or took up quarters. In June 1761 a contagious disease broke out, which killed one sixth of the population of Weiberg. At that time, Weiberg and its neighboring towns of Harth and Barkhausen belonged to the Gogericht of the Büren lordship .

On January 1, 1975, the previously independent place was incorporated into the city of Büren.
