history

Church and bakery

The place was first mentioned in a document in 1498. According to legend, the ancestor of the Riedesel family received as much land as a fiefdom that he could ride backwards on a donkey within a day. The residents of Lardenbach would have chased away animals and riders when animals and riders wanted to cross the Larbach. Until the end of the Thirty Years' War , Klein-Eichen lay on a hill approx. 1 km further north, which remains of the wall and tombstones testify to this day. Only then did the residents settle on the northern bank of the Larbach. In 1738, the residents bought the half-timbered church from Unter-Seibertenrod and expanded it over several years. Until 1978 the place was part of the parish of Groß-Eichen and was looked after by the local pastor. The Evangelical Church of Klein-Eichen still exists today.

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

"Small oaks (L. Bei. Grünberg) evangel. Branch village; lies in Vogelsberg 1 12 St. von Grünberg and belongs to the Baron von Riedesel. The place has 1 church, 30 houses and 164 inhabitants, who are Protestant except for 2 Catholics. The residents are also very busy with spinning and linen weaving. In the first half of the 20th century, iron ore was extracted in a mine in neighboring Lardenbach. Some Klein-Eichener earned an extra income there. After the Second World War, several small businesses existed for years, primarily in the textile processing industry, in which predominantly women found employment. The place experienced a structural change from 1970. Agriculture was increasingly pursued as a sideline. At the beginning of the 1990s, more and more companies closed. In 2020 there is only one farmer in the village. "

As part of the regional reform in Hesse , Klein-Eichen was incorporated into the city of Grünberg on December 31, 1970 on a voluntary basis.

The former bakery is now used for meetings and events.

Historical forms of names

In documents that have been received, Klein-Eichen was mentioned under the following names (the year it was mentioned in brackets):

  • Small oaks (1498) [cop. 16th century Landgrave regests online No. 10450]
  • Klein Aychen (1563) [State Archives Darmstadt A 3 No. 189/4]
  • Oak, small

Territorial history and administration

The following list shows the territories in which small oaks were 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 registry lords and thus the "Patrimonial Court of the Barons Riedesel zu Eisenbach " in Ober-Ohmen was responsible for Klein-Eichen . 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. In 1821 the Barons Riedesel zu Eisenbach ceded their rights at the Ober-Ohmen court to the Grand Duchy of Hesse. “ Landgericht Grünberg ” was therefore from 1822 to 1879 the name of the court of first instance that was responsible for small oaks. As a result of the reorganization of the judicial districts in the province of Upper Hesse with effect from October 15, 1853, Klein-Eichen was assigned to the district of the Laubach Regional Court .

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 at the same place, while the newly created regional courts now functioned as higher courts, the name was changed to "Laubach Local Court".

On July 1, 1968, the district court was dissolved, and Klein-Eichen was added to the district of Gießen district court . Between January 1, 1977 and August 1, 1979, the court was called "District Court Lahn-Gießen", which was renamed "District Court Gießen" when the city of Lahn was dissolved. 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.
