history

According to the document book of the city and the district of Langensalza, the first mention of the place Ufhoven is dated from around 1047-1050.

The castle Ufhoven , can be seen from today only a few remnants of walls, was located in the town itself and was the third of the three-castles fortifications of the city Langensalza the Dryburg . The Lords of Salza had built the Dribogk Castle as their seat and bought the Ufhoufe (Düringische Chronik). In 1212 Emperor Otto IV besieged the Dryburg of the Lords of Salza in a dispute with the Thuringian Landgrave Hermann I. These came about and Gunther von Salza was allowed to keep Ufhoven Castle. He also got the places Döllstädt and Ufhoven. The place belonged to the Electoral Saxon Office Langensalza until 1815 and after its cession to Prussia from 1816 to 1944 to the district of Langensalza in the province of Saxony .

The Ufhoven municipal council decided to merge the municipality of Ufhoven with the town of Langensalza on May 16, 1950. Of 14 valid votes, 10 were YES from the SED and the CDU , 4 from the LDP. The incorporation was made on July 1, 1950.

Coat of arms of Ufhoven
 Blazon : "In silver on a green hill, a green linden tree ."
Justification of the coat of arms: The coat of arms represents the approximately 400 year old linden tree on the Sülzenberg, which is under nature protection. It has been the symbol of the village from ancient times and was also used as a seal image in the seal of the place.

Culture and sights

  • The protected linden tree on the Sülzenberg is around 400 years old. It has always been the symbol of the village. It was also in the previous coat of arms and seal.
  • In the years from 1935 to 1945 the community was officially known as the " Rose Village ". After the incorporation, Langensalza took over this tradition from Ufhoven. The rose garden is not in Ufhoven, but in the spa gardens of the city of Bad Langensalza, in front of the Klagetor. There you can visit the rose garden and rose museum integrated into the spa park.
  • In Ufhoven itself there is a rose farm that cultivates several rose fields on the slopes north of the village and supplies Bad Langensalza with plants. This means that Ufhoven can (unofficially) continue to call itself “Rosendorf”. For this reason, and also as a reminder of the official status, there have been decorated wooden signs with the words "Rosendorf" at the entrances to the municipality since 2007.
  • In the south-west of the village there is the protected karst spring Golke , which forms the source of the Salza river .
