history

Front county of Sponheim

County of Sponheim

The area around the castles and palaces of Kreuznach , Ebernburg , Gutenberg , Argenschwang , Naumburg , Koppenstein , Gemünden and Kirchberg originally belonged to the Oberamt Kreuznach in Vordersponheim . It bordered the Electoral Palatinate Oberämter Stromberg and Alzey , Kurmainz , the Rhine County , the County of Falkenstein , the Lordship of Bolanden , the Duchy of Palatinate-Zweibrücken , the Rear County of Sponheim , the Dominion Dalberg and the Reichsforst Soonwald . The seat of the bailiff or senior bailiff was in Kreuznach .

As enclaves, the Oberamt contained areas of smaller or larger rulers such as the Koppenstein rulership of Mandel (Dalbergian fiefdom), Montfort der Boos von Waldeck ( partially Hüffelsheim ), the Duchy of Pfalz-Zweibrücken ( Hallgarten (Palatinate) ) or, until 1556, the Sponheim monastery (gracious Sponheimer Schirmvogtei ), until 1574 the monastery Sankt Katharinen and from 1707 the imperial court of Waiting Bergisch Oranienhof .

The headquarters of Burg Sponheim and Burg Dill , which were located in or at the Oberamt Kreuznach, were jointly owned by the Hinteren Grafschaft Sponheim . Until 1566, the Bailiwick was connected to the rule of Dill (castle and town of Dill , village of Sohrschied and serfs in surrounding villages) via the Augustinian canons of Pfaffen-Schwabenheim .

Condominium from Kurpfalz, Veldenz, Pfalz-Simmern and Margraviate Baden-Baden

The Kreuznach office, like the entire Vordere Grafschaft Sponheim, had been under the joint government of the Electoral Palatinate ( 1 ⁄ 5 ) and the County of Sponheim-Starkenburg ( 4 ⁄ 5 ) from 1417 , which in 1422 pledged one of its four fifths to the Electoral Palatinate for 20,000 guilders. 1437 the Burgsponheim-stark burger rule between been counts of Veldenz , the Margrave of Baden and Pfalzgrafschaft Pfalz-Simmern divided in undivided Community ( condominium ), each received 1 / 5 of the total power and a corresponding claim to the pledged to the Kurpfalz fifth. In 1444, Veldenz was inherited by Pfalz-Simmern (now 2 ⁄ 5 ). After the Battle of Seckenheim in 1462, the Baden share was pledged to the Electoral Palatinate for 42,000 guilders until 1508, which at this time had a total of 3 ⁄ 5 of the office in its possession. The rule of Ebernburg was given to von Sickingen in 1482 as an inheritance . In 1504 Pfalz-Simmern-Zweibrücken bought back the fifth of the Electoral Palatinate, which had been pledged by Sponheim in 1422, and passed half of it on to Baden, presumably in exchange for Baden shares in castles and palaces.

After Margrave Philipp I of Baden (1479–1533) married Elisabeth von der Pfalz (1483–1522) (1503) and received the pledged Baden shares back as a dowry (1508), Pfalz-Simmern owned 2½ ⁄ 5 (= 1 ⁄ 2 = 5 ⁄ 10 ), Baden 1½ ⁄ 5 (= 3 ⁄ 10 ) and the Kurpfalz 1 ⁄ 5 (= 2 ⁄ 10 ).

During the time of the condominium, an Electoral Palatinate, a Sponheim and a Baden (senior) magistrate officiated side by side in Kreuznach. The Electoral Palatinate and Simmern also each occupied the Oberamt with a Truchsess , Baden with a Landschreiber . Resolutions that changed a legal situation had to be passed unanimously by the officials, otherwise the status quo initially remained .

The so-called “ Little Imperial Law ”, probably compiled by Rudolf von Sachsenhausen in the middle of the 14th century in Frankfurt am Main , of which a Kreuznach manuscript has been preserved, served as the basis for legal system . In 1530 the Electoral Palatinate, Baden and Simmern enacted a common order for the - already existing - Kreuznach court and the lower courts in the Vordere Grafschaft Sponheim, that of Silvester Sybolt, court secretary in Kreuznach and town clerk in Oberwesel, and the Simmer secretary Hieronymus Rhodler († 1539) had been designed. The Kreuznach court court as the appeal instance of the lower courts (from a value in dispute of 20 guilders) met twice a year - on Sunday Laetare (March / April) and on the Sunday after St. Petri chain celebration (August 1st). The "Freidörfer" Waldböckelheim , Wöllstein , Volxheim , Braunweiler , Mandel and Roxheim , who were exempt from customs duties at Kreuznach, had seven lay judges (Wöllstein sent two). In 1721 - after Wöllstein was ceded by the Electoral Palatinate - the local Kurmainzische Oberschultheiß tried to dispute the function of the "actuary" ( clerk ) at the Kreuznach blood court from the Nassau Oberschultheiß of the bishopric community .

The Court of Justice of the Electorate of the Palatinate, reformed in 1462, emerged as the court of appeal (from a value in dispute of 50 guilders) . Appeals from the Kreuznach court court to the imperial Ingelheimer Oberhof , at which the Kreuznach jury court had also been "to the main", were no longer possible in the 16th century. Due to imperial privilege in the Electoral Palatinate from 1578 to 1652, an appeal to the Imperial Court of Justice was only permitted in disputes with a value of over 1000 guilders, after which this legal process could no longer be taken because of a " Privilegium de non appellando illimitatum".

In 1534 there was a dispute between Margraves Bernhard (1474–1536) and Ernst von Baden (1482–1553) with Duke Wilhelm IV of Bavaria (1493–1550) over the pledged portion of Kreuznach from the inheritance of his wife Maria Jakobäa von Baden (1507-1580). Elector Ludwig V of the Palatinate (1478–1544) as arbitrator awarded a severance payment to Duchess Maria Jakobäa.

From 1559 the Kreuznach office belonged to the Electoral Palatinate ( 3 ⁄ 5 ) and Baden ( 2 ⁄ 5 ) as part of the Vordere Grafschaft Sponheim after an inheritance settlement . 1610/11 came the Palatinate share to the so-called younger line Pfalz-Simmern-Kaiserslautern under Ludwig Philipp (1602–1655). In 1653, in comparison with Regensburg (confirmed in the Reichstag's resolution in 1654), Elector Karl I Ludwig von der Pfalz (1617–1680), who had made claims since 1648, had one of the Palatinate inheritance shares ( 1 ⁄ 5 ) transferred and became co-government in 1654 . After the death of Ludwig Heinrich von Pfalz-Simmern (1640–1674), the Palatinate shares were reunited in 1674.

The margraviate of Baden, which was expelled from Kreuznach in 1644 by the French marshal Henri de La Tour d'Auvergne, vicomte de Turenne (1611–1675), was reinstated in its share in 1652 after the Peace of Westphalia by an imperial restitution commission.

Electoral Palatinate

Kurpfälzische Oberämter,
7 (red) = Oberamt Kreuznach

From 1708 the Kreuznach office belonged completely to the Electoral Palatinate after a real division, but the Kirchberg, Koppenstein and Naumburg sub-offices and the villages of Burgsponheim , Sprendlingen and St. Johann were spun off and ceded to Baden.

In addition to the town of Kreuznach, the Oberamt Kreuznach included the villages Bosenheim , Schwabenheim , Ober-Hilbersheim , Zotzenheim , Langenlonsheim , Gensingen , Hackenheim , Laubersheim , Siefersheim (Schiffersheim), Wöllstein, Gumbsheim , Pleitersheim , Rüdesheim , Traisen , Hargesheim , Roxheim, Weinsheim , Gutenberg , Sponheim , Bockenau , Auen .

In 1714, the sub-office Böckelheim with the towns of Sobernheim and Monzingen and the villages Thalböckelheim , Waldböckelheim, Nussbaum and Langenthal as well as shares in Boos and Oberstreit through the "Treaty of Frankfurt" between the Electoral Palatinate and Kurmainz finally came to the Oberamt Kreuznach, but the Electoral Palatinate portion became delivered to Siefersheim, Wöllstein, Gumbsheim, Pleitersheim and Volxheim to Kurmainz. The Palatinate claims to Neu-Bamberg , Sulzheim and Dalberg have now also been given up.

The town of Odernheim am Glan with the former Disibodenberg monastery and the villages of Niederhausen , Hochstätten , Hallgarten and serfs in Staudernheim were gained through the “ Seltz and Hagenbach Exchange” of 1768 between the Electoral Palatinate and Pfalz-Zweibrücken . In 1750 (cession by Sickinger) or 1771, the former Sickingen rule Ebernburg with Norheim , Feil and Bingert was added in exchange for Helmsheim and Sprantal through a contract between Baden and the Electoral Palatinate . Duchroth and Oberhausen an der Nahe came to the Electoral Palatinate in 1779 in the "Kübelberg exchange" against the office of Kübelberg von Pfalz-Zweibrücken.

The former spiritual goods were administered separately by "conductors". In the Oberamt Kreuznach these were the winery zu Disibodenberg, the Schaffnerei Pfaffen-Schwabenheim, the Abbey St. Martin in Sponheim, the collection zu Kreuznach, the Schaffnerei zu St. Katharina and the Schaffnerei zu St. Peter in Kreuznach as well as the Presence Mastery to Kreuznach.

After the end of the Old Kingdom

After the Left Bank of the Rhine was taken by French revolutionary troops , from 1798 the areas north of the Nahe became the Arrondissement de Simmern ( Canton Kreuznach , Canton Sobernheim ) in the Département de Rhin-et-Moselle (Rhine and Moselle), some southern areas became the Arrondissement Mainz ( Canton Wöllstein ; Canton Alzey ) in the Département du Mont-Tonnerre ( Donnersberg ) and Birkenfeld ( Canton Meisenheim ) in the Département de la Sarre (Saardepartement).

Due to the agreements made at the Congress of Vienna (1815), the area of ​​the previous Oberamt Kreuznach was largely part of the Kingdom of Prussia in 1815 , and smaller parts to the Kingdom of Bavaria ( Rheinpfalz ) and the Grand Duchy of Hesse .

Some of today's Bad Kreuznacher districts and urban areas did not belong to the old Sponheim office and Oberamt Kreuznach: The area around today's Oranienpark belonged to the Augustinian choir monastery of St. Peter (until 1566/68, from 1707 imperial county Wartenberg ) and the Neuhof on the Mönchberg in Winzenheim to the monastery Eberbach , today's district of Bad Münster am Stein , the Osterburg am Römerkastell and the Galgenberg belonged to the Rhine county, the house Sulz in today's Salinental was free aristocracy (Lords von Leyen ), Planig belonged to the Benedictine monastery St. Jakob zu Mainz (which was the bailiwick awarded as a fief to those of Löwenstein called Randeck ), one half of Ippesheim and Winzenheim were owned by the electoral cologne lordship of Bretzenheim , the other half of Ippesheim belonged to the county of Falkenstein (later in Lorraine or in front of Austria ), Bosenheim was a multi-lordship (Sponheim, Wild- and Rheingrafen, Kessler von Sarmsheim, Lords of Schönberg, Lords of Leyen et al. a., since 1707 Electoral Palatinate).

Rheingräfliches Amt Kreuznach or Steiner Amt

To be distinguished from the Sponheim Oberamt Kreuznach is the Rheingräfliche Amt Kreuznach, which was also called "Steiner Amt" after its center, the Rheingrafenstein . It consisted of Münsterappel with Oberhausen an der Appel , Niederhausen an der Appel and Winterborn , Stein-Bockenheim , Dreckweiler (also Weiler or Weilerhof; desert near Frei-Laubersheim), Volxheim (partially), Münster am Stein (partially), the Galgenberg, the Kreuznacher Osterburg, Sarmsheim and Windesheim as well as rights and slopes in Hochstätten , Heddesheim , Norheim and Hüffelsheim. The seat of the administration was the Rheingräfliche Hof in Kreuznach.

In 1698, the Rhineland and Wildgrave family or the princely Salm-Kyrburg family gave up the rights to the Kreuznacher Osterburg with all accessories in return for the renunciation of the wild-catching rights of their subjects to the Electoral Palatinate.
