history
At the beginning of the 20th century, Abentheuer grew out of the two formerly separate districts of Leyen and Abentheuer or Abentheuerhütte . Leyen , which was located in the southeast of today's town on the Traunbach, was first mentioned in 1367. The adventure to the north of it can be proven in 1580 at the earliest. Both places had different names until the 18th century.
The area of today's municipality belonged to the county of Sponheim . The Traunbach acted as the border between the Hunolstein , from 1598 Zweibrückischen Amt Achtelsbach in the west and the Sponheimischen Amt Birkenfeld in the east. In the course of its history the place belonged either to the parish in Achtelsbach or the parish in Birkenfeld - today to the parish of Brücken .
From the middle of the 16th century, the processing of iron began in Abentheuer , initially from the pits in Buhlenberg and Elchweiler , later from Thalfang and Schwarzenbach . In 1763, after economic difficulties , the Abentheuerer Hütte became the property of the Stumm entrepreneurial family , who already had other smelters and hammer mills in the region. After this change, production in Abentheuer increased significantly, and since 1770 cast iron goods were mainly made from imported pig iron . In 1835 the Abentheuerer Hütte was bequeathed to the Böcking brothers . After 1870 operations were more and more restricted as a result of the transition from charcoal to coke blast furnace operation and from fresh fire to puddle furnace operation, and production was discontinued in 1875. The owners moved to the Halbergerhütte on the Saar .
In the late 17th century, the Hujetssägemühle settled in the wooded valley of the Traun to the east of the village . At the end of the 19th century it developed into a furniture factory with several production buildings, which was abandoned in the 1960s, and an inn that is no longer in operation today.
In 1797, the robber Johannes Bückler , who became known as Schinderhannes, committed a horse theft in Abentheuer .
Helene Kahn, née Marx, was born in Abentheuer in 1864. She lived in Abentheuer until she emigrated to France immediately after the so-called " seizure of power " by the National Socialists in 1933. Helene Kahn was deported from the Drancy assembly camp to Auschwitz on November 3, 1942 , and murdered. She is the only person of Jewish origin from Abentheuer who was deported and murdered by the Nazis.
