history

Giesenhain was first mentioned in a document in 1494.

In the run-up to the regional reform in Hesse , a number of voluntary amalgamations of municipalities arose, in which the previously independent municipality of Giesenhain also participated. The state government then decided, with effect from January 1, 1970, to incorporate the community of Giesenhain into the community of Buchenau in the district of Hünfeld .

At the end of the regional reform in East Hesse, Buchenau, like other small communities in the region, lost its independence by virtue of the law. With effect from 1 August 1972, the municipalities Buchenau (with the hamlet Giese Hain), Leimbach, Menger, Ufhausen and Wölf were incorporated into the community Eiterfeld in the district of Hünfeld, who is also the district of Fulda, in a district called Fulda district was merged .
