history

In 866 Nordmann donated properties in "villa Adalolfesleiba" to the Fulda monastery . The place name Alsleben means the inheritance of Adalolf. In 1199, the Eichstätt bishop received a five- stroke estate in Alsleben from the Henneberger Poppo von Irmelshausen .

Later, the Counts of Henneberg -Hartenberg received "a court and a court rider at Eschelhorn " and "the tithe share" at Alsleben as a fief of the diocese of Fulda. The Counts of Henneberg-Hartenberg sold their property in 1371 to the Henneberg-Aschach line, which was later called Henneberg-Römhild. From this, Alsleben passed in 1548 to the Counts of Mansfeld , who were related by marriage and sold this property to the Ernestine dukes of Saxony in 1555 . In 1575 the village of Eschelhorn became desolate.

In 1604, Prince-Bishop Julius Echter von Mespelbrunn from the Duchy of Saxony acquired the former Henneberg possessions in Alsleben and incorporated them into the Königshofen office . In 1803 the place was secularized in favor of Bavaria, then in the Peace of Preßburg 1805 left to Archduke Ferdinand of Tuscany to form the Grand Duchy of Würzburg , with which it finally fell to Bavaria in 1814 . In the course of the administrative reforms in Bavaria, today's municipality was created with the municipal edict of 1818 .

On January 1, 1978, Alsleben was incorporated into the Trappstadt market.

Culture and sights

religion

A church was documented in 1317 and as early as 1406 there was an episcopal confirmation of an early mass in honor of the Blessed Virgin Mary. In 1431 the Kreuzkapelle was built on the western outskirts. In 1590 Alsleben was separated from the mother church in Untereßfeld and became an independent parish.

In 1700 the pilgrimage to St. Ursula on the Kapellenberg near Alsleben, which was probably given up in the first half of the 16th century, revived. A pilgrimage church dedicated to the saints was built. The pilgrimage to the place of grace, which soon grew immensely, was forbidden during the secularization of 1803 and allowed again in 1815. The St. Ursula Chapel was rebuilt in 1875/76 after the previous building was cremated by lightning.

Between 1730 and 1737, today's parish church with the late Gothic basement tower of the previous church was built according to plans by Michel Müller. The high altar, created by Johann Joseph Keßler in 1741, is particularly worth seeing.
