a neighbourhood and former municipality of Schildesche district, Bielefeld, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany
Where this word comes from
One of the best-attested toponyms within the area, beginning with the foundation of a canonry (Frauenstift) by the noblewoman Marswidis in 939, around which a village and a Bauerschaft developed, and in modern times, across historical states having dominion over it, administrative seat of a Vogtei, Amt, Bürgermeisterei, Kanton, Kirchspiel, and finally merged into Bielefeld in 1930, not having any recognizable transition to the city’s historical core, in the course of its expansion and urbanization of the surrounding area. Most certainly equivalent to Schild + Esch, in reference to the scutate or ovate overall shape of the land apportioned to the settlers.
