In the years 1155–1170 Abbot Uffo of the Flechtdorf Monastery had goods in the village. In 1194 the place was mentioned with the name Wymarinchusen , when the Flechtdorf monastery acquired further ownership there and this led to disputes with the Padberg residents . In 1293 Count Otto I von Waldeck pledged his tithe rights to the Lords of Padberg. In 1344 Herrmann von Adorf sold an estate to the Flechtdorf monastery. In 1526 the von Scarpenberg brothers donated their estate to the Bredelar monastery . From 1537 to 1578 most of the village was owned by the Flechtdorf Monastery, a few belonged to the Bredelar Monastery. Lieutenants of the Flechtdorf monastery in the village were the lords of Ditmerkhusen, the Gogrebe and the lords of Eppe. Around 1600 the place was then called Wirmighausen. In the period from 1816 to 1866 Wirmighausen belonged to the upper office of the Twiste.

colonization

The settlement of the place began even before the first documentary mention. Around the year 800, Charlemagne is said to have moved north on an army road that led through what is now the district. The residents were forced to adopt the Christian faith. An early place name was Wennemaringhusen , possibly named after the founder Wennemar. Presumably the founder was a Saxon from the Engern tribe . The names of the places founded by Engern often end with -ingsen or -inghusen , and this ending is interpreted as "descendant of" .

Customs House

On a high plateau outside of the village there is a group of farmsteads called Zollhaus. Here the Counts of Waldeck had set up a customs post to the nearby Westphalia . Up until the 1920s there was still a large stable for up to 60 horses. Nearby, a castle is mentioned to protect the trade route , of which only the floor plan, a rampart and a moat can be seen today.

Incorporations

As part of the regional reform in Hesse , Wirmighausen and twelve other communities formed the new Diemelsee community on December 31, 1971. For Wirmighausen, as for each of the municipalities that were absorbed into the Diemelsee municipality, a local district with a local advisory board and local councilor was established.
