history
Arborn lies on the southern slope of the Westerwald . The first documentary mention took place in the year 1391. On June 17th of that year Bishop Eckard von Worms enfeoffed the knight Conrad von Essershausen with the castle Essershausen, as well as tithe and other basic rights Weilmünster , Mengerskirchen and Arborn. We get to know the landlords under whom Arborn was not founded, but was renamed. They are the bishops of Worms . The Nassau counts acquired the Worms property in the Calenberger Zent , to which Arborn also belonged, and as a result had become the legal successors of the bishops. In addition, sales and pledges show that the Beilstein Counts took almost all of the Arborner Dorfmark as property.
