It was first mentioned in 799 as Hasungum.[3] In 1840, it was home to 187 people.[4]

Springendal was bought in the 1920s by textile industrialist Gerhard Jannink [nl] who decorated the forest around the estate with ponds, waterfalls and little meandering streams. The nature area is nowadays publicly accessible.[5] In 2022, a treasure of 70 golden coins and jewellery from the 7th and 8th century were discovered in Springendal.[6]
