The cigar industry gave the village a major boost from 1860 onwards. Up to nine factories provided bread and work for the families of small farmers and haymakers alongside agriculture. The cigar workers' memorial on the B 65 is a reminder of this. The culture and customs of the time are documented in the \"Gehrmker Hius\" (on the B 65), a restored 200-year-old half-timbered house. There are several other half-timbered houses worth seeing in the village, most of which are over 200 years old. Another gem is the granary belonging to a former Grevenhof farm. This was built from quarry stones around the 15th century and is the second oldest building in Gehlenbeck after the church tower.&nbsp;The Renkhausen estate to the north of Gehlenbeck, a worthwhile excursion destination near the moor and canal, was first mentioned in 1278.
