history

In the Duchy of Nassau , the Langen-Schwalbach Office and the Wehen Office existed as the court of first instance and lower administrative authority.

With Section 12 of the ordinance of February 22, 1867, the separation of administration and justice was ordered after Nassau was annexed by Prussia . This was not the case in the Duchy of Nassau . The offices were both administrative districts and courts of first instance. The Langen-Schwalbach office and the Wehen office existed in the area of ​​the new Langen-Schwalbach District Court . With ordinances of June 26, 1867 and August 21, 1867, the judicial function was transferred to the newly created district courts, including the district court of Langen-Schwalbach. The district court of Langen-Schwalbach was initially subordinate to the district court of Wiesbaden .

Its judicial district consisted of the office Langen-Schwalbach and the communities Daisbach , Hausen , Kettenbach , Michelbach and Rückershausen from the office Wehen.

On October 1, 1879, the changes to the Courts Constitution Act came into force. The district court of Langen-Schwalbach remained, but the district court of Wiesbaden replaced the dissolved Wiesbaden district court .

Courthouse

The courthouse is the listed Rotenburger Schlößchen , Am Kurpark 12. The house was built in 1602 for Landgrave Moritz von Hessen-Kassel . His son Hermann from his second marriage inherited the partially sovereign Landgraviate of Hessen-Rotenburg to which Schwalbach also belonged. The name of the castle is derived from this. The building remained the property of the Hessen-Rotenburg line for 160 years. From 1729 the castle was the seat of the Hohenstein office , then the ducal-Nassau office of Langen-Schwalbach , the judicial office and the state high school. District office and customs office and today district court. It is a four-sided closed system around an inner courtyard. The elongated main building with a slated half-timbered upper floor has a high gable roof with small dormers. On the courtyard side there are two open arcades on wooden supports with carved headbands and a baroque door. The upper floor zone, including the farm buildings, is provided with attractive decorative trusses . The dwelling used to be provided with a loading hatch. The stair tower is crowned by a canopy.
