history

The village was first mentioned on August 10, 1330. At the site of today's castle Feldeck in Dietlas of Felda was one on the left bank Wasserburg . It belonged to Frankenstein's . In 1330 it became a fief of the Counts of Henneberg and was later given to the Ernestines . The place later belonged as an exclave to the office of Salzungen in the Duchy of Saxony-Meiningen .

The people in the surrounding villages used to be poor. The situation only got better when potash pits were built in the region from 1898 onwards . In 1905 a shaft was put into operation in Dietlas, which had already stopped production in the 1920s. The place preserved its agricultural character, it was not until the 1960s that new factory buildings were built on the outskirts through development programs of the GDR government, and the state-owned company Bergwerksmaschinen Dietlas was established. Here, equipment and mining machines that were sold around the world were manufactured for the GDR potash industry's own needs (for the Kali combine ). The plant had a siding on the Feldabahn , opened in 1879 , which was shut down in 2003.

The then mayor Krug reported on the first ten years after the Second World War in a textbook that was used in the Bad Salzungen district for local history lessons: The population has increased from 500 to 850. There is a LPG type I in the village, the land reform was carried out in favor of the poor farmers. The former estate has been divided. The VEB Bergwerksmaschinenbau Dietlas is located on the outskirts, next to which there are three apartment blocks with a total of 16 new apartments for miners. There is now a youth home in the castle and the place has a kindergarten. The citizens are building an elevated tank for the drinking water supply in the national structure .

In 1994 Dietlas was merged with Dorndorf to form the municipality of Dorndorf and has been a district of Dorndorf ever since. In 2013, after Dorndorf's merger with Merkers-Kieselbach , the place became part of the Krayenberg community .
