geography

Protestant church

Frankenbach is located in the Gleiberger Land in the foothills of the Gladenbacher Bergland in the northern part of the municipality. State road 3047 runs through the village .

Immediately to the north-west of the core town, the Frankenbach rises , a tributary of the salt flats tributary Vers , while the Bieber source river, the Dünsbergbach , flows more directly to the Lahn from the southeast .

history

The oldest known written mention of Frankenbach took place in 1285, in the record book of the Deutschordensballei Hessen . The village was probably founded in the 8th century. The place name is derived from the first settler , who was called Franco am Bache .

The statistical-topographical-historical description of the Grand Duchy of Hesse reports on Frankenbach in 1830:

"Frankenbach (L. Bez. Giessen) evangel. Branch village; is 3 St. from Giessen, has 63 houses and 330 inhabitants, all of which are Protestant. - Due to the main comparison between Hesse and Solms on October 30, 1629, the place came exclusively to Hesse. In 1732 silver was mined here. "

On January 1, 1977, the previously independent community of Frankenbach was incorporated into the large community of Biebertal, newly founded in 1970, as part of the regional reform in Hesse by virtue of state law . For Frankenbach, as for all formerly independent municipalities, local districts with a local advisory board and local council were set up. The seat of the municipal administration was Rodheim-Bieber.

Territorial history and administration

The following list gives an overview of the territories in which Frankenbach was located and the administrative units to which it was subordinate:

Courts since 1803

In the Landgraviate of Hesse-Darmstadt , the judicial system was reorganized in an executive order of December 9, 1803. The “Hofgericht Gießen” was set up as a court of second instance for the province of Upper Hesse . The jurisdiction of the first instance was carried out by the offices or landlords and thus the "Koenigsberg Office" was responsible for Frankenbach. The court court was the second instance court for normal civil disputes, and the first instance for civil family law cases and criminal cases. The superior court of appeal in Darmstadt was superordinate .

With the establishment of the Grand Duchy of Hesse in 1806, this function was retained, while the tasks of the first instance were transferred to the newly created regional and city courts in 1821 as part of the separation of jurisdiction and administration. " Stadtgericht Gießen " was therefore the name of the court of first instance that was responsible for Frankenbach from 1821 to 1866.

After the cession of the northwestern part of the district of Gießen and with it Frankenbach to Prussia, as a result of the peace treaty of September 3, 1866 between the Grand Duchy of Hesse and the Kingdom of Prussia , Frankenbach was separated from the city court of Gießen. In June 1867 a royal decree was issued that reorganized the court system in the former Duchy of Nassau and the parts of the area that had previously belonged to the Grand Duchy of Hesse. The previous judicial authorities were to be repealed and replaced by local courts in the first, district courts in the second and an appeal court in the third instance. In the course of this, on September 1, 1867, the previous regional court was renamed the District Court of Gladenbach and Frankenbach was added to this court. The courts of the higher instances were the District Court of Dillenburg and the Court of Appeal in Wiesbaden . Due to the Courts Constitution Act of 1877, the district court changed to the district of the newly established Marburg Regional Court with effect from October 1, 1879 . When Frankenbach moved to the Wetzlar district in 1932, it also moved to the Wetzlar district court . On August 1, 1979, Frankenbach moved with the community of Biebertal to the area of ​​the district court of Gießen . The superordinate instances are now the Regional Court of Giessen , the Higher Regional Court of Frankfurt am Main and the Federal Court of Justice as the last instance.
