history

Blumenrod was first mentioned in 1225 as "rode". The place goes from the year 1317, for which the name "Blumenrode" is occupied.

In 1353, Blumenrod, together with the Coburg Land, was inherited by the Wettins and from 1485 it was part of the Electorate of Saxony , from which the Duchy of Saxony-Coburg later emerged. The place was assigned to the Neustadt office and has belonged to the Fechheim parish three kilometers away since the Middle Ages .

On April 18, 1901, a school house 1.3 kilometers away for the newly founded Spittelstein-Blumenrod school association was inaugurated in neighboring Spittelstein . In 1965 the community joined the Einberg School Association .

In a referendum on November 30, 1919, two people from Blumenroder voted for the Free State of Coburg to join the Thuringian state and 21 against. From July 1st, 1920, Blumenrod belonged to the Free State of Bavaria . In 1925, the 251.83 hectare village had 109 residents, all of whom belonged to the Protestant church, and 18 residential buildings.

To improve the water supply, the municipality founded the Spittelsteiner Group water association in 1962 with Spittelstein, Fechheim, Mittelwasungen and Aicha . A deep well was previously drilled in 1961. House connections were laid in 1965. In 1967, in addition to the founding members, the group also supplied the towns of Birkig , Boderndorf , Fechheim , Kemmaten , Neu- and Neershof , Oberwasungen, Unterwasungen and Wellmersdorf with drinking water.

On January 1, 1969, Blumenrod merged with the neighboring municipality of Spittelstein to form the new municipality of Steinrod , which was dissolved on January 1, 1977 and incorporated into the town of Rödental. Since then, Blumenrod has been a district of Rödental. In 1987 the village comprised 208 people, 54 residential buildings and 67 apartments.

In 1991, the first construction phase of an emergency and residual material landfill of the association for waste management in Northwest Upper Franconia was opened in Blumenrod on the neighboring site of the former household waste dump of the district of Coburg. Since 2009 the landfill has been assigned to classes I and II.
