Lüthorst

The foundation of Lüthorst dates back to the 9th century, when it was a part of the Suilbergau area.

Throughout the Middle Ages, both the Counts of Dassel and lords who had their castle in the Homburg Forest, had influence on the village.

In the decades after 1310, when the Counts of Dassel ceased to exist, the Lords of Homburg expanded their influence and expelled some of the inhabitants from the village.

As the Roman Catholic Diocese of Hildesheim was the successor of the county of Dassel, bishop Gerhard tried to limit the influence of those lords.

They became independent farmers as a result of the Prussian Agricultural reforms early in the 19th century.
