 It is now part of the city of Bad Berleburg

The family name of Homrighausen is found in several nearby villages by the 16th century, but no one has been able to link these early branches back to a common ancestor.Besides the town of Berleburg itself, the Homrighausen name was and is common in the villages of Wunderthausen, Diedenshausen, Wemlighausen and Girkhausen, among others.At present, around 300 families by this name live in Germany, and more than half are in Siegen-Wittgenstein.
