history

middle Ages

The oldest surviving mention of the village comes from the year 1247. In 1386 a chapel was consecrated in the village , which is ecclesiastically assigned to the parish of Hohenzell. The village belongs to the Schlüchtern monastery and thus in the late Middle Ages the area of influence of the County of Hanau . The Schlüchtern monastery finally came under the patronage of the County of Hanau in 1457, since 1458: County of Hanau-Münzenberg . There it was assigned to the office of Schlüchtern .

Early modern age

The County of Hanau-Münzenberg initially joined the Lutheran denomination during the Reformation , and was reformed from 1597 .

With the death of the last Hanau count, Johann Reinhard III. , Ahlersbach fell in 1736 with the entire county of Hanau-Münzenberg to the Landgraviate of Hessen-Kassel , which in 1803 became the Electorate of Hesse .

Modern times

During the Napoleonic period, Ahlersbach was under French military administration from 1806, belonged to the Principality of Hanau from 1807 to 1810 and then from 1810 to 1813 to the Grand Duchy of Frankfurt , Department of Hanau . Then it fell back to the Electorate of Hesse. After the administrative reform of the Electorate of Hesse in 1821, during which the Electorate of Hesse was divided into four provinces and 22 districts, Ahlersbach belonged to the district of Schlüchtern . In 1866 the electorate was annexed by Prussia after the Austro-Prussian War and became part of the federal state of Hesse after the Second World War . Ahlersbach accordingly changed the administrations to which it belonged. Since December 1, 1969 Ahlersbach is in town Schlüchtern incorporated .
