history

Until the church is planted

The Lutere settlement , located between Ebern and Eltmann am Lauterbach and a very old elevated road, was probably formed from a Franconian forest area. The place was first mentioned in 1145 with "Marquard de Lutere". Both the Bamberg monasteries and the ministerials of the Würzburg bishopric have been known as fiefdoms since the 13th century . By enfeoffing a ministerial pilot in 1373, the "Kirchluter", similar to today's name, is attested for the first time. The location on the bishopric and diocesan border from Würzburg to Bamberg probably led to the special status of a tithe exemption of the place. The rulership of the village was originally divided. Half owned by various heirs and from 1502 to 1803 the von Guttenberg family . The other half belonged to the pastor of the place since the middle of the 15th century. Under the Würzburg prince-bishop Johann Gottfried von Guttenberg , the family share and that of the local pastor were combined in 1689/90 and a separate high institute and tithe Kirchlauter was established. The same bishop had a family castle built by H. Zimmer in place of a medieval moated castle in 1689/90, which was not completed until 1740 and which has been in the possession of the Schenk von Stauffenberg family since 1981 .

In 1818 the political community was formed and in 1820 a patrimonial court .

19th and 20th centuries

In 1862 Kirchlauter was incorporated into the Baunach regional court and the Ebern office.

Kirchlauter has been part of the Haßberge district since 1971 and since 1978 with the districts of Neubrunn, Pettstadt, Goggelgereuth, Hecklesmühle Winterhof, Weikartslauter, Passmühle right of the stream and the Klaubmühle, part of the Ebelsbach administrative community .

The village of Kirchlauter had market rights from the 16th to the 20th century . From the 17th to the 20th century, clay mining and pottery manufacturers as well as sandstone mining were important.

History of the parish and the local church

Parish Church of the Assumption

Originally, the settlement was cared for by the Zeil mother parish in the Middle Ages , until the Würzburg bishop Gottfried Schenk von Limpurg trained it in 1446 to become the independent parish of Kirchlauter with the branches Neubrunn, Dörflis , Kottenbrunn , Köslau , Pettstadt, Goggelgereuth and Weikartslauter rose. At that time there were only chapels in Neubrunn and Dörflis. Because Dörflis, Köslau and Kottenbrunn were on Saxon territory, these places were looked after by Protestants during the Reformation and from 1592 onwards by their own Protestant parish. In Kirchlauter, Protestant influences were pushed back between 1565 and 1579 by the Würzburg bishop in 1580 and since then the parish, which was originally administered by the Gerolzhofen dean's office and from around 1560 by the Ebern dean's office, has been Catholic again.

The Church of the Assumption of Mary from the 14th century is still in ruins with medieval frescoes in the old choir . Today's baroque parish church was built between 1751 and 1754 according to the plans of the Goßmannsdorf master builder Agidius Bierdimpfl. In 1759 the Würzburg auxiliary bishop Daniel von Gebsattel consecrated the church. Little is known about the baroque furnishings of the church, as it was mostly paid for by private foundations of the Guttenberg village authorities and there is no evidence. The artist Georg Joseph Mutschele from Bamberg has only survived of two figures. The ceiling frescoes in the choir and nave were created in 1897 by the Munich company Kaspar Lessig and Co.

The rectory was built by Johann Schmeltzing from Rüdenhausen between 1735 and 1738 not far from Guttenberg's moated castle in the baroque style.

Pettstadt has been part of the Kirchlauter community since April 1, 1971. On May 1, 1978, Neubrunn was incorporated into the municipality of Kirchlauter with its Paßmühle district on the right of the stream.
