history

Surname

The name -trup means -dorf , and a total of seven places in the Blomberg Basin have this ending in their name. Around 1153 Wellentrup was called Walderingthorp or Walderingdorp , which means village of the Walteringe . A man named Walter was probably the first settler and thus the founder of the village. The places with the ending trup (for village) are among the oldest settlements in Lippe and emerged between the 6th and 8th centuries as part of the old Saxon settlement.

Local history

Walderingthorp is first mentioned in 1144 in a document from the Gehrden monastery near Brakel . It later turned out to be a medieval fake. In this document, the noble Werno von Brach bequeathed his possessions to the monastery, as well as the tithe income from Wellentrup. In a real document from 1153, the Paderborn bishop assigned the tithe to Wellentrup of the Gehrden monastery. Even in the 19th century there was a tithe barn in Wellentrup , in which the tithe grain was collected for the Gehrden monastery. The Wellentruper mill was owned by the Lippe sovereign, probably Simon III. , and was first mentioned in a document around 1360.

In 1644 Wellentrup had five full-span farms , two half- spouses , one Großkötter and 13 Kleinkötter or Hoppenplöcker . On May 9, 1743, a fire broke out in a bakery, causing a devastating conflagration that destroyed 27 houses. 1808 lifted Princess Pauline the serfdom and the farmers were personally independent. But it was not until 1838 that the farmers were able to redeem the taxes and services that were on them by paying them money. Between 1843 and 1845, the Wellentruper nastiness , that is common pasture areas, were divided up and privatized.

Farmer Friedrich Ottomeyer bought two English steam locomotives in 1866 , which he used for threshing and sawing. One of the oldest agricultural machinery factories in Westphalia developed from this. In 1877 the Ottomeyer company moved to Steinheim and still exists there today. In 1888 the first Lippe cooperative dairy was founded in Wellentrup and was located in the building of the former machine factory Ottomeyer, today known as the Alte Molkerei at Istruper Straße 74 , until 1949 . In 1956 the dairy ran into economic difficulties and had to cease operations in Wellentrup after it was taken over by the Detmold dairy .
