geography
Bruchstedt is located in the Thuringian Basin , on the southeast edge of the Schlotheim trench , which here follows the Schambach- Oberlauf Fernebach .
history
At the beginning of the 9th century Bruchstedt was first mentioned as Brutstede in connection with Tennstedt ( Dennistede ) in a list of the goods of the Hersfeld monastery built by Archbishop Lullus († 786) of Mainz .
Bruchstedt was originally an exclave of the subordinate rule of the Principality of Schwarzburg-Sondershausen in the middle of the Electoral Saxon office of Langensalza . In 1816, as a result of the Congress of Vienna , Bruchstedt came to the Langensalza district of the Prussian province of Saxony with the surrounding office of Langensalza .
In 1913 the private Langensalzaer Kleinbahn was built by Haussummer to Langensalza via Bruchstedt. This was completely dismantled in 1967 from Haussummer to Kirchheilingen and in 1969.
On the night of May 23rd to 24th 1950, a torrent of the Fernebach caused by a storm devastated the place. Water heights of up to 3.50 meters were reached; an expert opinion assumes that the high water peak had a discharge of 400 m³ / s. Eight citizens and most of the livestock (including 82 cows, 400 pigs and 317 sheep) were victims of the disaster. Seven residents were injured, some seriously. 40 buildings were completely destroyed and over 150 structures were partially badly damaged. In a state-organized aid campaign, the site was rebuilt by 3,000 helpers in 50 days. The new farms were built on a hillside, a kindergarten, a school and a cultural center were built. A park was created on the vacated center. A memorial stone with the names of the eight victims of the disaster commemorates the disaster night. Even today, the rebuilding festival takes place every year in memory of the one-time relief operation.
