geography

location

The Bayerisch Kohlhof settlement is the only area in the municipality of Kirkel that is located northwest of federal motorway 6 . It is also northeast of the Federal Highway 8 .

The neighboring district of Neunkirchen, Kohlhof , used to be called the Prussian Kohlhof to distinguish it . From 1816 to 1918 the border between the Kingdom of Bavaria and the Kingdom of Prussia ran here .

Neighboring places

Neighboring places are the district of the same name belonging to the district and the city of Neunkirchen (Saar) and the districts of Limbach and Kirkel-Neuhäusel belonging to Kirkel. In the southwest is the settlement of Eschweilerhof, separated by forest, which came to Neunkirchen in 1974.

history

A number of prehistoric and protohistoric finds came to light in the area. Modern history begins with the Kohlhof , named since 1718 , which initially formed an annex belonging to the neighboring Forbacherhof (today Gutshof Furpach). In 1755 the border between Nassau-Saarbrücken and Pfalz-Zweibrücken was changed, and the most southeastern part of the Furpach district came to Pfalz-Zweibrücken as part of an area exchange. In 1763, the common man Wilhelm Hauser from Altstadt built a property on this strip of land , from which today's settlement Bayerisch Kohlhof developed, which had eleven inhabitants in 1833 and eight houses in 1880.

Kirkel parish

The municipality of Kirkel was created on the occasion of the territorial reform on January 1, 1974 from the previously independent municipalities of Kirkel-Neuhäusel , Limbach bei Homburg and Altstadt . Bayerisch Kohlhof, which belonged to the municipality of Limbach near Homburg, and the Eschweilerhof , which originally belonged to Kirkel-Neuhäusel , were separated and assigned to the city of Neunkirchen / Saar . The Federal Motorway 6 thus consistently formed the north-western border of the new municipality of Kirkel.

The new community of Kirkel and the former communities of Kirkel-Neuhäusel and Limbach had lodged a constitutional complaint with the Constitutional Court of Saarland against the assignment of Bayerisch Kohlhof and Eschweilerhof. However, this was rejected by the judgment of November 17, 1975. After the Saarland government announced in 1979 that it wanted to re-examine the disputed restructuring measures, the municipality of Kirkel made major efforts in February 1980 to regain the ceded areas. The city of Neunkirchen was not ready to negotiate. On May 10, 1983, the Saarland government issued an ordinance to reclassify the inhabited parts of the Bavarian Kohlhof to the community of Kirkel. The city of Neunkirchen took legal action against it and was ruled on January 30, 1984; because the Constitutional Court upheld the claim. Thus, the disputed area remained with Neunkirchen. Finally, the Saarland Landtag passed a law on January 23, 1985, with which the inhabited parts of the Bayerischer Kohlhof settlement were finally assigned to the community of Kirkel with effect from April 1, 1985. The area came to the district Limbach.
