Bernsburg is a district of the municipality of Antrifttal in the Vogelsberg district in Central Hesse .

history

The village was first mentioned in 1248 with the place name Bernhardesberc . The foundation is probably around 1100.

The statistical-topographical-historical description of the Grand Duchy of Hesse reports on Bernsburg in 1830:

"Bernsburg (L. Bez. Kirtorf) evangel. Parish village; is on the Churhessian border in a narrow valley on the Andreft, 2 St. from Kirtorf, has 54 houses and 360 evangelists. Residents. The place belongs to the Euss patrimonial court of the barons von Schenk zu Schweinsberg, and the jurisdiction in the first instance rests with the state and the barons. Schenk family jointly. In the district was Watzenrode, where the Watzenröder meadows and some wells are. At Bernsburg there are also Haustädter Miesen, and a field is called the Haustädter Kirchhof. According to the legend, there was a town here called "Hausstadt". This place, 14 St. from Bernsburg against Wahlen, still shows bumps; there is also a fountain here, the bell fountain, which is said to have got its name from a bell found there. - This village occurs in 1297 under the name Bernhardesdorph . The church was probably incorporated into some monastery, since it does not appear in any archdeaconate registers. "

and about the outer judgment:

“Outer court (L. Bez. Kirtorf) area; contains the places Arnshain, Bernsburg, Erbenhausen, Lehrbach, Obergleen and Wahlen, which now belong to the district of Kirtorf. The jurisdiction of the first instance belongs to the state and the Freiherr von Schenk, Ganerbe zu Schweinsberg, jointly. The disputed jurisdiction in Homberg is exercised jointly on certain days of office by the district judge and the Schenkische clerk, whereas the police and other administrative business is exclusively exercised by the district councilor. - The Nassau house had acquired a share in the Euss court and subsequently enfeoffed the Schweinsberg tavern with it. The above-mentioned places belonged to the Amte Kirtorf. Elsewhere, as in Alsfeld, Romrod, etc., the court was composed of lay judges from the city and the villages; But since Kirtorf belonged exclusively to the Counts of Ziegenhain and afterwards came to the Landgraves, but the taverns had shares in the above places, a court of this kind could not be formed here, hence the court in Kirtorf (inner court) from the of the villages (outer court) differed. This is how the name Eusser Court came about, which linguistic usage, however, has been pretty much lost in recent times, and has now been completely lost due to the last organization.

As part of the regional reform in Hesse , the five municipalities of Bernsburg, Ohmes, Ruhlkirchen, Seibelsdorf and Vockenrod merged on December 31, 1971, on a voluntary basis to form the new larger municipality of Antrifttal.

Territorial history and administration

The following list gives an overview of the territories in which Bernsburg was located and the administrative units to which it was subordinate:

Courts since 1803

In the Landgraviate of Hesse-Darmstadt , the judicial system was reorganized in an executive order of December 9, 1803. The “Hofgericht Gießen” was set up as a court of second instance for the province of Upper Hesse . The jurisdiction of the first instance was carried out by the offices or the class lords and thus the external court was responsible for Bernsburg. The court court was the second instance court for normal civil disputes, and the first instance for civil family law cases and criminal cases. The superior court of appeal in Darmstadt was superordinate .

With the establishment of the Grand Duchy of Hesse in 1806, this function was retained, while the tasks of the first instance were transferred to the newly created regional courts in 1821 as part of the separation of jurisdiction and administration. “ Regional Court Homberg an der Ohm ” was therefore from 1821 to 1879 the name of the court of first instance in Homberg an der Ohm, which was responsible for Bernsburg. On March 13, 1822, the Freiherrn Schenck zu Schweinsberg renounced their police and other administrative rights in favor of the state authorities. In the district court of Homberg, jurisdiction continued to be exercised jointly. It was only as a result of the March Revolution of 1848 that the special civil rights were finally abolished with the “Law on the Relationships of Classes and Noble Court Lords” of April 15, 1848. On the occasion of the introduction of the Courts Constitution Act with effect from October 1, 1879, as a result of which the previous grand-ducal Hessian regional courts were replaced by local courts at the same place, while the newly created regional courts now functioned as higher courts, the name was changed to "Local Court Homberg an der Ohm" and Allocation to the district of the regional court in Giessen . At the same time, Bernsburg was assigned to the Alsfeld district court .

In the Federal Republic of Germany, the superordinate instances are the Regional Court of Giessen , the Higher Regional Court of Frankfurt am Main and the Federal Court of Justice as the last instance.
