history

Foundation of the place and early history

Buckendorf was mentioned for the first time in a document from the Bamberg Monastery on August 6, 1096 as "Buchendorf". It was about an exchange of the episcopal property in Buckendorf with an "Arnold von Lancheim". Buckendorf was probably founded a few centuries earlier, although the name suggests a small Slavic settlement in a beech forest.

In the years 1300 and 1311, the local ministerial of the Förtsch von Thurnau family , "Henrico de Buckendorff", was recorded as a witness of a transfer of goods in Langheim documents. Heinrich von Buckendorff died childless in 1317, so that a separate line of nobility could not develop. In 1333 the Langheim monastery acquired half a fiefdom in “Burckendorff” and kept it until the end of the 18th century. Farmers had to pay their taxes to the monastery.

A wooden chapel in Buckendorf was first mentioned in 1362. At the beginning it belonged to the parish of St. Martin's Church in Weichenwasserlos and in 1451 it came into the parish of the newly founded parish in Stadelhofen . Today's chapel was built in several phases. The oldest section is the choir from 1491. After the Thirty Years War , the Leonhards patronage was changed to that of Saint Sebastian , the patron saint against the plague , which Buckendorf had badly hit during the war. In the following centuries, numerous smaller and larger renovation and renovation measures took place.

Early modern age

In the course of secularization, Buckendorf became a municipality in 1811. In 1818 it lost its status again and became part of the community of Weiden . Around 30 years later, on February 18, 1853, Buckendorf became independent again. Buckendorf has been part of the Lichtenfels district since 1880 , before that it was part of the Ebermannstadt district . The volunteer fire brigade was founded on May 1, 1883.

20th century until today

Solar system, part north of the A 70

On January 1, 1978, the village was incorporated into Weismain. In the summer of 2002, the St. Sebastians Chapel was completely renovated and the roof was re-covered on the initiative of the village community.

In the summer of 2011, a solar power plant was built between Buckendorf and Fesselsdorf by IBC Solar . A six hectare sub-area of ​​the citizen solar park Fesselsdorf-Buckendorf, which comprises a total of 23 hectares, is located on the northern outskirts of Buckendorf up to the A 70 . In this area alone there are 6500 solar modules that can supply electricity for 3320 houses. However, the solar park is controversial among the population.
