Belzhag is a hamlet in the part of the district Westernach of the municipality of Kupferzell in Hohenlohekreis in north-eastern Baden-Württemberg .

geography

Belzhag is less than two kilometers southwest of the center of Kupferzell on the border between the sub-areas of Kupferzeller Ebene and Kochereck in the east and Öhringer Ebene in the west of the flat, hilly natural area of the Hohenlohe and Haller levels . The long, straightened, 21 km long Sall rises on the southern edge of the village, flowing to the Kocher and dividing almost half of the hamlet in its uppermost hollow. In the east the federal highway 19 leads past the village, from which the L 1036 branches off to the west in the direction of Waldenburg -Hohebuch- Neuenstein . The clasp of the K 2369 between Kupferzell and Hohebuch crosses the village. The Sallmulde follows the K 2386 a little further on the left slope.

history

The hamlet was first mentioned in a document in 1266, when Konrad von Krautheim donated goods to the Gnadental monastery in Belzhagene . The place name then changed from Beltzhagen (1606) and Belzhaag (1810) to the current name from 1824. Belzhag belonged to the municipality of Kupferzell from 1807 to 1824 and was then incorporated into the municipality of Westernach . Together with Westernach, Belzhag came as part of the community reform on January 1, 1972, to form the newly formed community of Kupferzell through a merger.
