History
Herleshausen was, as far as is known, first mentioned in 1019 as Herleicheshuson in a deed of gift. Later mentions are Herlecheshusin (1229), Herleshusen (1268) and Herlshusin (1423). In the deed of gift, the place was transferred to the Kaufungen monastery, under whose administration the village remained until the secularization of the Hessian monasteries in 1527. Then it came into the possession of the Landgraves of Hesse-Kassel, who gave it as a fief to the Reckeroth family and then to the Wersebe family.
