Brabecke is mentioned for the first time in 1203. Knight Godard von Meschede built a permanent house or small castle in Brabecke in 1328, which was under the feudal lord Count Wilhelm von Arnsberg of the county of Arnsberg. The building existed until 1740. The village used to belong to the municipality of Bödefeld Land in Amt Fredeburg until the end of 1974. [2]
