history

Fulda

In October 900 the Fulda Abbey acquired Ulmbach and the northern part of the Salmünster parish by swap. Abbot Richard von Amorbach transferred the property to the newly founded Neuenberg Monastery in 1023 . On August 23, 1373 Abbot Konrad sold half of the office to the servant Heinrich von Mörle called Beheim with the consent of the convent. Fulda retained the high jurisdiction . In 1381 the widow von Mörles bought the other half of the office. In 1569 the bishopric reacquired the office from the von Mörle family. After Fulda bought the Uerzell estate from the heirs of the von Thüngen family in 1699, the seat of the office was moved there.

Principality of Nassau-Orange-Fulda

The Principality of Nassau-Oranien-Fulda came into being on the basis of the Reichsdeputationshauptschluss 1803. With regard to jurisdiction and administration, the rulers' ordinance on January 8, 1803 reorganized the existing offices. The Uerzell office initially remained unchanged. The office was now called an Office III. Class. By announcement of March 22, 1805 the office Uerzell (and the office Sannerz ) was canceled and assigned to the office Salmünster .
