Wulferdingsen owns the two industrial areas "Im Sundern" (54 ha) and "Böllingshöfen" (8 ha) with numerous medium-sized companies. Around the turn of the millennium, the then Balda Group, as a supplier for cell phone manufacturers and the automotive industry as well as a manufacturer of plastic-based medical technology, set up its production facility in Sundern, which is now used partly by its successor companies and partly by external companies.

Wulferdingsen is part of the Werste-Wulferdingsen primary school network and has a municipal kindergarten.

Attractions

Watermill Bergkirchen "Beautiful Mill"

Bergkirchen watermill

Not its beauty, but the name of a previous owner was decisive for the naming. It is not certain when the mill was built. It is said that it was built during the Thirty Years War . The mill building is made of broken stone and bricks. An overshot water wheel (3.8 m diameter) drives the mill device. At the beginning of the 1980s the mill was restored and placed under monument protection. Coffee, cake, etc. can be consumed in the mill room on mill days.

The watermill is part of the Westphalian Mill Road and the Mill Route .
