history

Schwarzenborn was owned by the Counts of Ziegenhain at the end of the 12th century and was first named as a town in 1329. In 1283, Count Gottfried von Ziegenhain bought the town of Hunigerode (now the desert) from the Spieskappel monastery . In 1340, Count Johann von Ziegenhain acquired Blankenstrud and Wilsberg (also deserted areas), creating a spatial connection to the Neukirchen office . This was the core of the Schwarzenborn office that was now emerging. At the end of the 14th century, the Ziegenhainer Urbar II also mentions Ziegenhain property in 16 places of the Office Oberaula , which were administered by the Office Schwarzenborn. In 1420 the castle, office, town and court of Schwarzenborn were pledged to Simon von Wallenstein by Counts Johann and Georg von Ziegenhain for 1500 guilders, but were later redeemed again.

The mayor of Schwarzenborn was also the bailiff of the office. The court function was performed by the Schwarzenborn City Court and the Oberaula office. In 1450 the office with the county of Ziegenhain became part of the Landgraviate of Hesse. In the 16th century, the official tasks were centralized to Ziegenhain . The court function is relocated to Ziegenhain, the local rentmaster is in charge of the mayor of Schwarzenborn. The town schools in Schwarzenborn were now also official schools in Oberaula. This ends the existence of a separate official structure in Schwarzenborn, even if documents continue to speak of an office in Schwarzenborn until the 18th century.
