NHN a little over a kilometer west-southwest of the center of Gründelhardt on the spur approach of the Aschberg , which separates the two upper reaches of the Stettbach tributary Niederbach ; the left branch of the slightly longer right upper course Madenbach arises on the western edge of the village and flows along its southern edge, the entire hamlet drains towards it, while the left Brunnenbach begins its course further away in a depression between Brunzenberg and Gründelhardt.

description

The place, which still today (2017) offers a rural sight, stands on a plateau of silica sandstone ( Hassberge formation ) and has a dozen house numbers, plus at least as many agricultural outbuildings. Since the second half of the 20th century, it has outgrown its old border by adding large stables, especially to the northeast. The old building stock lines the edge of the Madenbachmulde in the south, on the steep slope of which the lower colored marl ( Steigerwald formation ) spread out. Outside the soft area there are mixed fields and meadows, behind these in an interrupted 225 ° bend forest, in the southwest and south beyond the Madenbach the municipal forest , to which the chamber forest connects in the southwest and the mowing wood and the Hahnenberg forest area to the west. Beyond the open aisle around the road to Spaichbühl there is a hillside forest in Munzingersfeld to the west, separated from it in the northwest and west by the larger Brunzenberger Hölzle , which begins less than 100 meters from the outskirts; the last two forest islands fall into the Bühlbach valley.

Brunzenberg is located in the western part of a 1.63 km² water protection area .

history

Brunzenberg takes its name from a Brunizo (Bruning or Brunward) who had his seat there. In 1350 a Hohenlohe feudal man Conrad von Brunzenberg was mentioned, the land belonged to the Lords of Vellberg . In 1375 Raban von Vellberg sold goods and Gülten to the Martinskirche on the Stöckenburg . In 1460 Ernfried von Vellberg acquired an estate in Brunzenberg. After the Vellberg family died out, Brunzenberg was owned by the imperial city of Schwäbisch Hall from 1593 , with which it came to Württemberg in the course of the Napoleonic reorganization, like Gründelhardt. As a place of the previously independent community of Gründelhardt, it became part of the new community of Frankenhardt formed by merging with the neighboring community of Honhardt on January 1, 1974 .

In 1884 Brunzenberg had 8 houses and 44 inhabitants. At that time there were still sand pits in the pebble stone in operation near the village and there was a dike pipe that led water from here to Gründelhardt.

traffic

A less frequented communal connection road branches off to the east on the southern edge of Gründelhardt from Landesstraße 1066 , climbs up the Aschberg, passes through Brunzenberg and continues to the distant neighboring hamlet Spaichbühl in the west-northwest, where it joins the L 1064 , which branches off the L 1066 in the center of Gründelhardt . A few dirt roads lead off this only public road in the local area, including the old Kirchenweg to Gründelhardt through the Brunnenbachmulde to the north. The next motorway entrances to the A 6 at Satteldorf and Wolpertshausen are both around 18 km away. Closer are the stations at the Crailsheim rail junction and in Ilshofen- Eckartshausen on the Crailsheim – Heilbronn railway line .
