history

Sobernheim is mentioned as "Soberenheim" for the first time in 1074 in the founding deed of the Ravengiersburg monastery , in which the tithe of the Sobernheim estate (decem de curte Soberenheim) was transferred to the monastery , certified by Archbishop Siegfried von Mainz . Archaeological finds make the presence of humans seem certain since the Neolithic . Even in the times of the Celts and Romans (approx. 600 BC to 400 AD) there was at least one small settlement. From the 3rd century Germanic immigrants came to the Nahe valley, of which the Franks asserted themselves as new masters from 400 AD . The name means home of Sobaro. Sobaro is an Old High German given name. This indicates a higher age than the written tradition indicates.

Since the early Middle Ages, Sobernheim was a center of the holdings of the Archbishopric Mainz on the Nahe and the Glan . It was subordinate to the Vice Cathedral Office Rheingau . The Archbishop gave the Church of St. Matthias to the monks of the Disibodenberg Monastery . The Romanesque-early Gothic building was rebuilt around 1400 and renovated in the 19th century.

The city received city ​​rights based on the Frankfurt model from King Adolf von Nassau in 1292 and from Emperor Ludwig the Bavarian in 1324 . However, the city ​​charter implemented by Archbishop Balduin von Trier in 1330 based on the Binger model became legally effective and was in force until the French era .

Sobernheim was administered by Disibodenberg until 1259, then by the Böckelheim office until 1471 . In the Palatinate War of Succession in 1689, the fortifications and most of the buildings were destroyed by the French. Despite the efforts of the Archbishopric of Mainz, Sobernheim remained in Electoral Palatinate until 1798 , then came to France to the Rhine-Moselle Department and in 1815 to the Kingdom of Prussia .

From 1832, a small industry began to develop in addition to down-to-earth agriculture and diverse handicrafts. A few factories were established, mostly as family businesses. Nevertheless, Sobernheim retained the character of a small country town, which was connected to the Middle Rhine transport network by the Bingerbrück - Saarbrücken railway, which was completed in 1860 and the roads that were gradually expanded.

Pastor Emanuel Felke worked in Sobernheim from 1915 to 1925 . He was a representative of naturopathy who developed the Felke cure named after him . This is still used today in the numerous spa houses in Bad Sobernheim.

The air force of the German armed forces was stationed from 1960 with the light combat squadron 42 , from 1975 with the fighter-bomber squadron 35 in horse field.

On January 1, 1969, the village of Steinhardt with 121 inhabitants was umgemeindet from the community of Waldböckelheim to Sobernheim. On June 10, 1979, the previously independent municipalities of Eckweiler (then 207 inhabitants) and Pferdefeld (404 inhabitants) were incorporated into Sobernheim. Both villages were later abandoned and are now deserted . Since December 11, 1995, the city of Sobernheim has had the addition of Bad .

Stumm organ in the Protestant parish church of St. Matthias

The Bishop Willigis consecrated the church to 1000. Oldest parts (north tower base) are Romanesque, if not karolingisch; the choir is early Gothic. The main nave was built at the end of the 15th century, the tower in 1500, by Peter Ruben from Meisenheim. In addition to valuable altar canopy capitals with depiction of angels and paintings from the time of construction, the largely original, restored and preserved Johann Michael Stumm organ from 1739 and the Georg Meistermann windows are noteworthy.

Disibodenberg Chapel

Disibodenberg Chapel

The late Gothic chapel was built according to a plan by Heinrich Murer von Beckelnheim for the Cistercians from the Disibodenberg monastery on an estate between the city ​​wall and Großstrasse , with which the monastery had already been equipped by Archbishop Willigis of Mainz in 975. The farm, which acted as an interest lever for the properties on the Middle Nahe and Glan , developed into the most important settlement of the monastery.

According to dendrochronological studies in the choir area around 1455 and in the area of ​​the nave in 1493, the chapel in the style of the Frankfurt School was finally under roof. Due to their age, size, quality and completeness, both roof trusses are among the most important examples of carpentry in Rhineland-Palatinate.

The financial means for the construction of the 23.25 m long and 7.65 m wide building came from the estate of Katharina von Homburg ( Saarpfalz ), daughter of Count Friedrich II von Homburg and widow of the Elector of Mainz bailiff at Böckelheim Castle , Antilmann von Scharfenstein , called von Grasewege, who died on December 24, 1388 and is venerated as a blessed by Catholic Christians .

After the Reformation was introduced, the chapel was profaned into a warehouse in 1559 under the Count Palatine and Duke Wolfgang von Pfalz-Zweibrücken . To increase the storage capacity, the chapel was built with a cellar between 1587 and 1764; in addition, wooden false ceilings were installed. The vaulted cellar that still exists today, with a top height of approx. 3.90 m, occupies the space between the base of the foundation and the sills of the windows. In the basement, the floor level and the base zone of the original ground floor were lost, which is why the chapel can no longer be entered through an entrance that was built during the construction period. The " raised ground floor " created by the basement is at the level of the sills of the Gothic windows. The wooden false ceilings are historically significant , both because of their age and because of the secondary use of beams, which are decorated in the Renaissance style. Since both subsequent installations - vaulted cellar and false ceilings - were created in the course of the profanation of the chapel after the introduction of the Reformation, they can also be viewed as testimony to the history of the denomination .

The outer tympanum of the west portal, which shows a crucifixion group with Jesus , the mother of God Mary and the apostle Johannes as well as two censer-wielding angels as assistance figures under a mighty keel arch in the style of the Frankfurt School , is the only one with plastic ornamentation that looks out from Nahe and Glan was preserved in the Middle Ages . The representation is stylistically related to the tomb sculpture in the nearby St. Johannisberg ( Hochstetten-Dhaun ) and in the collegiate church Pfaffen-Schwabenheim . The motif of the creeping flowers (= crabs) along the keel arch facing away from the viewer on the left and open to the viewer on the right can only be found on the west portal of the Catholic parish church of St. Valentin in Kiedrich / Rheingau . In 1985, during restoration work, an Atlant in the form of a male figure was uncovered below the tympanum , who is known as a " builder " because of his arm gauntlets that stretch over the palm of his hand . After careful mapping, the Atlant was walled in again for conservation reasons.

After the chapel had been hidden behind the walls of a printing house for 111 years , it came back into the public eye in 2010 after the opening of a specialist market center on the former printing plant premises. The Friends of Disibodenberger Kapelle Bad Sobernheim e. Since then, V. has been campaigning for a cultural use which corresponds to the dignity of the former sacred building and which enables a broad public constant access. In the spring of 2013, plans were presented according to which the Disibodenberg Chapel should be converted into a brewery with event catering in close coordination with the General Directorate for Cultural Heritage . These plans were implemented in spring 2019 when the DenkmalZ - die Kapellenbrauerei (Disibodenberger Brauhaus GmbH ) opened an upscale restaurant in the restored chapel. A beer garden with craft beer was opened in May 2018 on the southern chapel site . The vaulted cellar is used as a fermentation cellar as part of the glass production .

Maltese Chapel

The late Gothic chapel was built as a place of worship for a branch of the Order of St. John / Maltese that has existed since the 14th century. The choir was built in 1456 and the nave was completed in 1465. The choir has a star vault and is equipped with architectural sculptures. It is higher than the nave, which has medieval wall paintings. The exterior is structured by stepped buttresses and windows with fish bubble tracery. With the introduction of the Reformation , the Johanniter Sobernheim had to leave. The chapel was used as an economic building and fell into disrepair.

After the reintroduction of the Catholic religion in 1664, the completely renovated chapel served as the Catholic parish church . A Progymnasium was set up in the Maltese Commandery in 1821 , the chapel was restored in 1837, after which it was used as a school chapel. After the construction of the new Catholic parish church St. Matthäus in 1898/99 directly opposite, six tombs, the baptismal font from around 1625 and a sacrament shrine from the 15th century were transferred to the new parish church. The chapel building was converted into a club house. It was last completely renovated from 1998 to 2003 and has served the Catholic parish of St. Matthew as a “house of encounter” ever since . The building is a listed building .

Catholic Parish Church of St. Matthew

Catholic Parish Church of St. Matthew

The bishop Michael Felix Korum consecrated the neo-Gothic church , which was built from 1898 to 1899 by the church builder Ludwig Becker . It is a large three-aisled hall church made of yellow sandstone, which gives the impression of a unified whole. It has a neo-Gothic winged altar from 1905, a sacrament shrine from the 15th century and a historic organ from 1901/1902 by Michael Körfer from Gau-Algesheim . The organ is one of the few remaining works by Körfer. It was fully restored from 2011 to 2012. The baptismal font from the Maltese chapel from 1625 is in the choir. There are also some old tombs in the entrance area. The church tower towers over the city with its 59 meters and is visible from afar. The interior of the parish church was extensively renovated from late July 2014 to mid-September 2015.
