Overview map of Düdelsheim

Düdelsheim is the second largest district of Büdingen in the Wetterau district in Hesse .

Geographical location

Düdelsheim is 5.5 km west of Büdingen am Seemenbach . The Findörfer Hof located southeast of Düdelsheim also belongs to the district.

history

The oldest surviving mention of Düdelsheim can be found under August 16, 792 as Dudilesheim in the Lorsch Codex . The occasion was the donation of a "Hunolt" to the Lorsch monastery . This makes Düdelsheim one of the earliest mentioned settlements in the eastern Wetterau .

Presumably the name derives from the settlement of the country by a Frankish nobleman named Tutilo → Tutilosheim → Düdelsheim. Since the Hohenstaufen era, the gentlemen of Düdelsheim have been a family of lower aristocrats named after the place.

  • In 1602 74 subjects lived in Düdelsheim.
  • In 1660 the Düdelsheim district boundaries were recorded in a border crossing.
  • As early as the 15th century, hopped beer was brewed in Düdelsheim and viticulture was practiced. In 1695, Count Carl August von Ysenburg-Büdingen zu Marienborn wrote to his councilors in Büdingen about Düdelsheim wine: "The wine is as rough as it wants, you have to accept it as God gives it."
  • In 1722 the first known emigrants from Düdelsheim emigrated to Hungary.
  • In 1766, 21 people from Düdelsheim and 5 from Rohrbach emigrated to Russia.
  • In the 19th century there were reports of emigrants to Brazil and North America.
  • An old saying that is still valid today: “Däi Beuringer can kaan Märt haale, when Dilsemer will come to me.” ('The Büdingers can't hold a market if we Düdelsheimers don't come') - an allusion to the size of today's Büdinger district .
  • Martin Knaus , commonly known as mill doctor or potato miller, was a robber and a member of the Wetterau and Vogelsberg gang. He was born in Düdelsheim around 1772.

Territorial reform

As part of the regional reform in Hesse , the municipality of Düdelsheim was incorporated into the city of Büdingen by law on August 1, 1972 , as a voluntary border change agreement was not concluded.

coat of arms

On February 29, 1968, the municipality of Düdelsheim in what was then the administrative district of Büdingen was given a coat of arms with the following blazon : In a black shield a golden sloping left-hand wavy bar, each with a stylized gold-crowned and red-tongued silver lion head.

The coat of arms is supposed to represent the two districts - Dilsem and Iwwerdorf - which are separated by the Seemenbach.

religion

Jewish community

A Jewish resident of Düdelsheim was first mentioned at the end of the 16th century. There is evidence of a prayer room in a Jewish private house since 1722. In 1860/61 a synagogue was built in Düdelsheim, and the Protestant pastor and fellow Christian citizens also helped to build it. The Jewish community also had a religious school, a ritual bath and two cemeteries, the old and the new.

In 1905 the Jews from neighboring Rohrbach joined the community.

During the pogrom of November 9, 1938, the synagogue was ransacked and robbed by SA men. The furniture was burned in a meadow with a large number of participants. Jewish residents were ridiculed in the worst possible way. The building was demolished after 1950.

Christian churches

Düdelsheim, the Protestant church

Düdelsheim, which is traditionally evangelical , has its own evangelical parish, which belongs to the Büdingen deanery of the Evangelical Church in Hesse and Nassau . The church building with the high ridge-like and slate-clad octagonal onion dome is located in the center of the village.

The Catholic parish of St. Joseph , whose members include Catholics from the nearby towns Aulendiebach, Büches, Calbach, Dudenrod, Orleshausen, Rohrbach and Wolf, is closely associated with the Catholic St. Boniface church in Büdingen. The Düdelsheimer Kirche St. Josef, which is quite inconspicuous from the outside, was built in 1953 from a former truck garage.

Culture and sights

Workshop community of ceramic artists

Since 1956 there has been a workshop community of several ceramic artists in Düdelsheim who have decisively shaped the development of ceramics in Germany and have also been internationally renowned for decades: Beate Kuhn (* 1927 in Düsseldorf ), Karl Scheid (* 1929 in Lengfeld (Odenwald) ) and, since 1959, his wife Ursula Scheid (1932–2008). Recently, the son of Karl and Ursula Scheid, Sebastian Scheid , has also come out with his own work. The wood sculptor Bernhard Vogler also belongs to the community. In 2006 the 50th anniversary of the Düdelsheim workshop community was celebrated with a big party. In 2007, Beate Kuhn was dedicated to various exhibitions on her 80th birthday (including in the Keramion Foundation in Frechen near Cologne). All artists live and work in the center of Düdelsheim.

Düdelsheim market

Düdelsheimer Markt 2004
