Location of Dannstadt in Rhineland-Palatinate |
||
Dannstadt is one of two districts of the local community Dannstadt-Schauernheim . in the Rhein-Pfalz-Kreis in Rhineland-Palatinate . Until 1969 it was an independent community.
location
Dannstadt lies in the Upper Rhine Plain in the south-eastern part of the local community. The village is separated from the neighboring district of Schauernheim by the A65 motorway, which runs roughly along the old boundary and is only connected by a single road bridge, so that in the consciousness of the population there is still a feeling of belonging to one of the formerly independent districts. The core of Dannstadt's settlement lies in the very north-eastern corner of the former district, directly on the borders with Mutterstadt in the east, Assenheim in the north-west and Schauernheim in the north / north-east. The agricultural area mainly used for vegetable growing, on the other hand, extends mainly to the south and southwest towards the neighboring towns of Schifferstadt and Böhl-Iggelheim.
history
To the south of the village is the nature reserve "Dannstadter Gräberfeld" , with numerous Celtic barrows , mostly from the third stage of the Hallstatt period and the Latène period . (approx. 850 BC to 350 BC)
At the church of Dannstadt in 1825 there was a large Roman eight-god stone (around 250 AD), walled in from the base of a giant column of Jupiter . It later came to the Historical Museum of the Palatinate in Speyer and is exhibited there in the Roman collection. Its original location is unclear, but it certainly comes from the immediate vicinity and is likely to indicate a Roman settlement in the area.
Presumably founded in the 7th century by Franconian settlers, the community is first mentioned in a document from the Weißenburg monastery , which can be assigned to the year 767 at the latest, as "Dendestat", then in June 769 in the Lorsch Codex as "Dantistat".
As part of the Franconian tribal duchy and later the German royal state, Dannstadt remained directly in the Landvogtei Speyer until it was pledged to Count Palatine Rudolf II and Ruprecht I in 1331 by Emperor Ludwig the Bavarian and transferred to Electoral Palatinate ownership.
There was a noble family here whose members named themselves after the place. The most famous representative is Jeckel von Dannstadt († 1427), electoral Palatinate land clerk and mayor in Neustadt an der Weinstrasse . His grave plate adorned with coat of arms stands today in the paradise of the local collegiate church , in which he was also buried.
During the so-called French period , Dannstadt was part of France , first the Republic, then the French Empire (in fact since 1793, legally since 1797) and belonged to the Département du Mont-Tonnerre , Canton of Mutterstadt . At that time it formed its own mairie , in 1815 it had 700 inhabitants. In 1816 the place changed to the Kingdom of Bavaria and remained Bavarian until the founding of Rhineland-Palatinate in 1946. From 1818 to 1862 it belonged to the Landkommissariat Speyer , later to the District Office Speyer . From 1886 Dannstadt became part of the newly created Ludwigshafen district office , since 1939 Ludwigshafen am Rhein district , which has been called Rhein-Pfalz-Kreis since 2004 .
In 1928 it had 1691 inhabitants who lived in 317 residential buildings. Both Catholics and Protestants had their own local parish at the time.
In the course of the first administrative reform in Rhineland-Palatinate , Dannstadt was merged on June 7, 1969 with the neighboring community of Schauernheim to form the new local community of Dannstadt-Schauernheim .
