Location of Allendorf in Giessen

Allendorf ( pronunciation ? / I ) is a district of the central Hessian city ​​of Gießen in the district of the same name . Audio file / audio sample

geography

Allendorf belongs to the Hüttenberger Land , not far from the Lahn . Together with Lützellinden, it forms the southern part of the city and is about 5 kilometers from the Gießen core city.

The official name Allendorf / Lahn is misleading. The outermost point of the village is about half a kilometer as the crow flies from the river, the shortest distance from the outer border of Allendorf to the river is about one kilometer. Allendorf is in this area by a Stretch landscape separated from the Lahn, which to neighboring communities Dutenhofen , Heuchelheim and Kleinlinden belongs, the result of a gravel pit is between the 1960s to 80s. Sources on the local history of Allendorf suggest a historical location for the town of Lahn. It is reported that in the 18th and 19th centuries there were border disputes on the northern border of the town, as the meandering river often changed its course. In this context, reference is made to a river straightening around 1850 and a later land consolidation .

The Kleebach flows through Allendorf and flows into the Lahn in the north.

history

The oldest known written mention was made in a deed of donation from February 27, 790 of the Lorsch Codex under the name Aldentorph . A man named Winocho sold the village together with other properties in Logenehe (Lahngau).

Like 13 other villages, Allendorf belonged to the Hüttenberg office , which belonged to the Conradinians. In the 11th century the village became part of the county of Gleiberg . In 1363 the western half of the county and thus Allendorf fell to the Counts of Nassau-Weilburg . Later, the Hüttenberg office formed a condominium between the Landgraviate of Hesse and the County of Nassau. This was dissolved in two steps through real divisions, most recently through the Hüttenberger main division contract . From then on, Allendorf belonged to the Landgraviate of Hessen-Darmstadt and here to the Hessian Office of Hüttenberg . Since that time the place was officially called Allendorf an der Lahn . The village was now also in the border area, as the neighboring towns of Dutenhofen and Lützellinden belonged to Nassau and Münchholzhausen was ruled by the Counts of Solms .

In 1803 the Landgraviate combined its areas north of the Main in the Principality of Upper Hesse (later: Province of Upper Hesse ), where Allendorf was now also located, in 1806 the Landgraviate became the Grand Duchy of Hesse . This carried out an administrative reform in 1821, in which the Hüttenberg office was dissolved. The superordinate administration was now the district of Gießen , the competent court was the district court of Gießen .

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

"Allendorf (L. Bez. Giessen) evangel. Parish village; Located on the Lahn 34 St. from Giessen, has 61 houses and 341 evangelists. Inhabitants. There is also 1 church and 1 border customs office of the 2nd class. - Very old news mention the Allendorfer Mark, as well as the village of Allendorf, which is without a doubt the current one. Due to the division with Nassau-Weilburg in 1703 the place became exclusively Hessian "

Allendorf belonged to the area of common law , which was valid here without the superimposition of particular law. This retained its validity even while the membership of the Grand Duchy of Hesse in the 19th century, until 1 January 1900 by the same across the whole German Reich current Civil Code was replaced.

The municipality of Allendorf an der Lahn became a district of Gießen by a border change agreement that came into force on October 1, 1971. As a result of the Hessian regional reform , the new town of Lahn was founded on January 1st, 1977 from the towns of Gießen and Wetzlar and several surrounding communities. As a result, Allendorf was assigned to the district of Dutenhofen and thus also became a new district of the "Lahnstadt" with more than 156,000 inhabitants. When the city of Lahn was dissolved again on August 1, 1979, it was rejoined to the city of Gießen.
