Office Gondelsheim

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The office of Gondelsheim had been an office in the margraviate of Baden since 1761 . It was dissolved in 1826 as part of a reform of the administrative structure.

history

In 1650 Gondelsheim came to Johann Bernhard von Mentzingen. The gentlemen of Mentzingen set up their own administration with a bailiff as head. It is noteworthy that the Füger family provided the bailiff for three generations from 1725 until the office was dissolved in 1826. After the lords of Mentzingen were increasingly in debt, they had to sell the - already pledged - property in 1787 to the Baden princes Friedrich and Ludwig . Private ownership of the Gondelsheim manor and the Bonartshäuserhof and Erdbeerhof farms passed to Grand Duke Ludwig after Baden was elevated to the status of the Grand Duchy. At first Gondelsheim belonged to the Baden County of Petershausen, the previous office was left, including the bailiff. The office had only 1,102 inhabitants who lived in 139 houses. The stately office building at Silbergasse 4 also served as the apartment for the office man. The grand ducal family as the owner decided to resign the office only when the bailiff Karl Füger should go into retirement. In March 1826, at the age of 72, he submitted an application to give up his official duties. This was approved by the Grand Duke, while the Office Gondelsheim was disbanded June 1, 1826 in the District Office Bretten incorporated .

Class glory

In the third constitutional edict on the civil status of July 22nd, 1807 (Grand Ducal Baden Government Gazette No. 29 of August 25th, 1807, p. 141), the legal relationships of the civil nobility, i.e. the noble owners of domestic parts of the country, were redefined. Legislative powers were abolished, but civil and police criminal matters remained with the landlord or his bailiff. The taxes collected now went to the state treasury and no longer to the landlord. In the Official Gondelsheim the Grand Duke was the same ruler and nobleman .
