History

Wiesbach

Local foundation and first mention

Wiesbach probably counted once for the Urgemarkung risen in the church today Bammental place Reilsheim and was well- founded and from there as expanding settlements. The local foundation could already have taken place about 700, a 1964 aufgefundenes early medieval grave stone fragment indicates an existing already in the 9th century Adelshof. However, his first documentary mention learned Wiesbach only in the first half of the 12th century.

Wiesbach as a possible seat of the Earls of Lauffen

Today Outbound Kühburg southeast of the town was older literature According probably built by the Earl of Lauffen. They should have checked from there in 1100 as vassals of the Bishop of Worms and Gaugrafen of Kraichgau and Elsenzgau the remote connection from Heidelberg to Würzburg Mosbach. The Lauffener therefore laid their seat already in 1140 on the near Dilsberg Castle above the River Neckar, whose importance began to excel as a waterway that of the old remote path. Recent publications contradict this thesis and date the system more in the Roman period.

Provost of the monastery Ellwangen

The Lauffener leaving their possessions in Wiesbach, including the monastery also founded by them Wiesbach, the monastery Ellwangen, which the Wiesenbacher monastery was always assumed. The castle was probably used after the withdrawal of Lauffener as a quarry for the expansion of Wiesenbacher convent where relics of Saint Benignus and Mammes were held. The monastery Ellwangen, which had lost many possessions on the mountain road in the early 12th century, was due to the acquisition of Wiesenbacher Adel good also owned and sovereign rights in Langenzell, Dilsberg, Neckargemuend with Kleingemünd, Bammental and Reilsheim, wall and Meckenheim Zuzenhausen and Eschelbronn, Mönchzell and Spechbach and praise field and Waldwimmersbach. We therefore moved moved the provost of Ellwanger estate on the mountain road from Schriesheim to Wiesbach, the future formed a Ellwanger administrative center.

Dissolution of the monastery

Together with Dilsberg reached the place Wiesbach at the beginning of the 14th century to Electoral Palatinate. The Ellwanger monastic property came in the second half of the 15th century to the monastery of Schönau and after dissolution of the monasteries during the Reformation in 1560 also in the Palatinate. The former provost Wiesenbacher property was removed shortly after the dissolution of the monasteries from the other Schönau possession and combined with the possession of the former monastery Praise field for Schaffnerei Praise field that was to be managed from there. The former monastic estates were given on long lease, whereby the property was parceled rapidly through inheritance, while forgave the pending manors until the late 18th century as Temporalbestand and only then aufteilte to promote agricultural development in 20 lots. The former provost goods came mainly through commutation agreements in the 19th century largely in private ownership. The Palatine Catholic Kirchenschaffnei that manages the former estates of the Schaffnerei Praise field since the early 19th century, today essentially only forest ownership in Wiesbach. From the former Propsteihof, in the Wiesenbacher center extended in the area of today's main road between Catholic and Protestant church in about, nothing is received.

From the Palatinate of the Rhine -Neckar-Kreis

In the resolution of the Palatinate in 1803 Wiesbach fell to Baden. The district administration was moved from Dilsberg Neckargemünd so that Wiesbach initially belonged to the district office Neckargemuend before it was moved in 1857 to Eberbach. 1864 joined the Higher Office Heidelberg, which became the district of Heidelberg in 1939 and rose in 1973 in the Rhein- Neckar-Kreis, the Wiesbach belongs today to the District Office Eberbach.

Training of today's local image

The population center of Wiesbach located in Oberndorf near the Schlossberg source south of the fortified settlement of Kühburg, in the area of today's main road approximately between Protestant and Catholic Church. At that point, Roman settlement has already been demonstrated, and later there was the Carolingian time Adelshof, the ellwangische prevost monastery church of St. George ( Vorläuferbau the Catholic Church of St. Michael ), Parish Church of St. Giles ( Today's Protestant church ) and Schultheißenhof followed. To the east it is the farms joined. The old trunk road from Heidelberg to Mosbach ran south of the village, which is why some old buildings such as the half-timbered house main road have 68 of 1620 their input is still the main road away to the south. The construction of the current main road was only made possible after the abolition of the old cemetery at the Protestant church in the 19th century.

A few hundred meters northwest of Oberndorf the Under village developed along the Geleitstraße to Heidelberg ( in the area of today's post road ) as settlement of farms following a medieval mill. There also the Inns Rose and Crown and guard house, slaughterhouse and Forestry House were built. 1817 came in the lower village with the relocation of the post office from wall to Wiesenbach added the building complex of the Baden court.

Oberndorf and sub- village remained very small until the recent past. 1749 were counted in the lower village 21 residential buildings in Oberndorf and 13 residential buildings. It was not until 1900, the two population centers, where it then together were about 100 residential buildings, grown together to form a closed village. As a new city center was built in 1901 /02 between the population centers, the school and the town hall, 1928/29, opened up to the also located between the town centers Deywiesen. After that, the place is still greatly increased mainly due to the industrial area in the southwest and by building new areas in the northwest and southeast. 1970, there were already more than 300 residential buildings at the site, since then the population has roughly doubled again.

As a result of the Thirty Years' War, the village was destroyed and abandoned. Under the family of Wrede an estate was built with manor house on the site of the former village in the late 18th century. 1803 Langenzell such as meadow creek to swim. 1925 Langenzell was incorporated into Wiesbach. The place is now essentially only of the estate and in 1883 completed the New Castle and a few surrounding houses.

Population Development

The population development of Wiesbach essentially corresponds to that of the entire northern Kraichgau. A strong growth is to be noted for the first time in the 18th century to 1850 led to poverty depopulation and emigration, after which there was interrupted by individual crises to a slow growth until the Second World War. The growth of the postwar period are due to established displaced persons in the postwar years and the expulsion of large construction areas and the settlement of commuters.
