Districts of Grünberg

Harbach is a district of Grünberg in the Upper and Central Hesse district of Gießen with around 620 inhabitants.

geography

Harbach is on the edge of the front Vogelsberg , about halfway between Reiskirchen and the city of Grünberg . With the rivers Josseler and Äschersbach, two tributaries of the Wetter flow through its district, which is why it can also be assigned to the northernmost Wetterau .

Neighboring places

In the north, Harbach borders on Saasen and Lindenstruth, in the west on Hattenrod and in the south on Ettingshausen (all of the municipality of Reiskirchen); the eastern neighbors are two districts of Grünberg: Queckborn and Göbelnrod.

Local division

In addition to the core town, there are two former mills in the valleys of Äschersbach and Josseler in the south and an Aussiedlerhof, three further inhabited settlements in the area. One mill is the so-called summer mill, which is located between Queckborn and Harbach.

history

The oldest known written mention of Harbach took place in 1243 under the name Horbach . The Harbach church was built around 1250.

The robber Johannes Reitz, called "Haarbacher Hannes," came from Harbach and belonged to the Vogelsberger gang at the beginning of the 19th century .

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

"Harbach (L. Bez. Grünberg) evangel. Branch village; is 1 St. von Grünberg, has 77 houses and 381 inhabitants, all of whom are Protestant, and among whom are 55 farmers, 7 craftsmen and 10 day laborers. The place has 1 church and 4 mills. - In 1250 Probst Werner zu Wirberg agrees to build a chapel in Harbach, the mother church in Saasen undamaged. "

Harbach was incorporated into the city of Grünberg on February 1, 1971 as part of the regional reform in Hesse and is its westernmost district.

Territorial history and administration

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

Law

Substantive law

In Harbach, the town and official custom of Grünberg was a particular right . The Common Law was only included if the office I do not need regulations. This special law of old tradition retained its validity during the affiliation to the Grand Duchy of Hesse in the 19th century, until it was replaced on January 1, 1900 by the civil code that was uniformly valid throughout the German Empire .

Court constitution 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 the landlords and thus the "Amt Grünberg" was responsible for Harbach. 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 courts in 1821 as part of the separation of jurisdiction and administration. " Landgericht Grünberg " was therefore from 1821 to 1879 the name of the court of first instance that was responsible for Harbach.

On the occasion of the introduction of the Courts Constitution Act with effect from October 1, 1879, as a result of which the previous grand-ducal Hessian regional courts were replaced by local courts in the same place, while the newly created regional courts now functioned as higher courts, the name was changed to "Amtsgericht Grünberg" and assigned to the district of the regional court of Giessen . On July 1, 1968, the Grünberg District Court was dissolved, and Harbach was added to the Gießen District Court . In the Federal Republic of Germany, the superordinate instances are the Regional Court of Giessen , the Higher Regional Court of Frankfurt am Main and the Federal Court of Justice as the last instance.
