Founded on December 11, 1775, by Count Simon August zur Lippe, who granted the Barntrup citizen August Simon Struß a Kolonat and a pub at the Dören, the village quickly developed into a modern center.[7][8] The first hut was built as early as spring 1776, followed by an extension plan in 1779, and a school and cemetery in 1782. In 1789 it received its current name in honor of the deceased sovereign. Church growth marked milestones such as the chapel of 1800, the parish of 1817 and the present church of 1875/76.[7]
