Döringstadt is a district of the Upper Franconian market Ebensfeld in the Lichtenfels district .

geography

Döringstadt is located near the Upper Main in a small side valley through which the Bernhardgraben flows. The place is located in the Banzgau , a long triangle between the Itz and the Main, south of Banz Monastery and is crossed by the LIF 9 district road. In its historical form of settlement, it was a closed clustered village with a corridor . Hook courtyards with a gable-independent residential stable house and a barn standing transversely at the back are a feature of the townscape. Feldkapellen and Marterl are typical for the Döringstadt area.

history

Döringstadt was first mentioned in a document at the end of the 8th century. Presumably in 791 Hiltrih and his wife Hruadun donated Ruadun's property in "VringOSTi" to the Fulda monastery , subject to the usufruct for life. In the town itself, the year 797 is given, when the abbess Emhild von Milz transferred her possessions in "Dorrestat" to the Fulda monastery. Charlemagne confirmed this donation in 800. The mention of 797 is probably based on a forgery in the copy in Codex Eberhardi in the 12th century. The place name can be interpreted as a site of the Thuringians or a site of the During.

At the beginning of the 11th century, Döringstadt was under the control of Margrave Otto von Schweinfurt as an economic property with a labor yard . The place became a dowry of his daughter Alberata, who gave possessions to the diocese of Bamberg around 1070 . The bishop of Bamberg converted the manor into an episcopal bailiwick .

In 1308, the Bamberg bishop Wulfing von Stubenberg leased the bailiwick to the cathedral provost Johannes. Around 1468 Döringstadt was a separate office, to which the neighboring towns ) Mönchshof , Wiesen , Neudorf, Medlitz, Birkach, Busendorf and Speiersberg belonged.

In the Second Margrave War , Döringstadt was burned down in 1553 by the troops of Margrave Albrecht II Alcibiades of Brandenburg-Kulmbach . For the next forty years the place was Protestant. The place, located on a trade route, had market rights in 1569. Recatholization followed in 1593. In the Thirty Years' War , Swedish troops plundered Döringstadt.

In 1801 the market town was part of the area of ​​the Bamberg monastery . Fiefdom, bailiwick, village and community rulership belonged to the Bamberg Dompropstei. The diocese of Würzburg provided the pastor and the ecclesiastical jurisdiction . In addition to the church, the place had an office building, a servant house, a schoolhouse and 58 other houses, mostly with barns.

In 1862 Döringstadt and its Mönchshof district were incorporated into the newly created Bavarian district office of Staffelstein .

In 1871 Döringstadt had 462 inhabitants and 321 buildings. A Catholic school and a Catholic church were located in the village. In 1900, the two places of the rural community covered an area of ​​668.57 hectares, 386 inhabitants, all of whom were Catholic, and 78 residential buildings. 373 people lived in Döringstadt in 77 residential buildings and in 1925 338 people in 73 residential buildings. The evangelical parish responsible was Lahm . In 1950 Döringstadt had 475 inhabitants and 70 residential buildings. In 1970 the parish village had 342, in 1987 a total of 331 inhabitants and 78 houses with 96 apartments. A new elementary school and a new kindergarten were inaugurated in the 1960s.

On July 1, 1972, the Staffelstein district was dissolved and Döringstadt was incorporated into the Lichtenfels district. Since January 1, 1978, the municipality Döringstadt belongs to Ebensfeld as a district. Agriculture, previously operated by numerous small farmers, has concentrated on a few full-time farms that have settled on the outskirts.

The late Gothic church tower is dated to 1412 and was part of a fortified church . The former defensive tower is made of sandstone blocks and has four massive watch towers placed across corners . The choir is located in the basement . The current nave was built in 1712 according to plans by Joseph Greissing . The facade of the four-axis hall consists of plastered chunks of brickwork with sandstone structures.
