history

In 1230, Beuerfeld was first mentioned as "Burgfelt" when it became a fiefdom of the Würzburg bishopric .

The Mönchröden monastery owned an estate in Beuerfeld. At the beginning of the 14th century the place was under the rule of the Henneberger . In 1353 he came with the Coburg Land by inheritance to the Wettins and was thus part of the Electorate of Saxony from 1485 , from which the Duchy of Saxony-Coburg later emerged.

In 1445 there were 23 and in 1599 26 able-bodied men lived in the village.

In 1857 Beuerfeld had 176 inhabitants who lived in 29 houses. In 1855 a community bakery was built and in 1863 a new schoolhouse was opened. In addition to Beuerfeld, the school district also included Moggenbrunn and Sulzdorf . From 1968 the community belonged to the Meeder School Association and the school was closed.

In a referendum on November 30, 1919, 23 Beuerfeld citizens voted for the Free State of Coburg to join the Thuringian state and 44 against. On July 1, 1920, the Free State of Coburg was united with the Free State of Bavaria . In 1925 the rural community had 145 inhabitants, all of whom were Protestant, and 27 residential buildings.

On October 1, 1971, Beuerfeld became part of the municipality of Meeder. In 1987 the village had 154 inhabitants and 39 houses.

The typical farming village has developed into a residential area close to the city.
