history

Historically, the individual hamlets and also Ebersburg Castle , which was probably built around 960, are mentioned. The Lords of Ebersberg , called von Weyhers, are first mentioned in a document in 1250. The Steinrück farm is named after the noble family of Steinau called Steinrück . The hamlet of Oberlütter was first named as Superior Lutture in a document from the Fulda abbot Hadamar (927-956) . Later names were Obirn Litter and Oberluter . Rödersbach was evidently mentioned for the first time in 1441 as the Fulda fief of the von Ebersberg family. The history of the settlement is closely linked to the history of the Fulda monastery and monastery . For centuries, farms and properties were exchanged and traded between the prince abbots and the nobles.

After the dissolution of the Hochstift in 1802, the Ebersbergers belonged to the Principality of Nassau-Oranien-Fulda , but were then added to the Kingdom of Bavaria within the Weyhers Regional Court in 1819 . As part of the administrative reform of 1862 , the district office of Gersfeld was formed from the districts of Hilders and Weyhers in the Kingdom of Bavaria . After the takeover by Prussia in 1866, Ebersberg became an independent rural community in the Gersfeld district in the Hesse-Nassau province .

In 1811 75 fireplaces with 608 souls are named as belonging to the place.

At the Prussian census of 1871, Ebersberg had 671 inhabitants in 106 residential buildings. With 38 living spaces it was the rural community with the most individual farms, a typical settlement pattern in this part of the Rhön (for comparison: the neighboring community Steinwand had 36 living spaces at that time).

During the first land consolidation between 1957 and 1964, the Schwenzerhaus farm was handed over to Weyhers. In the course of the regional reform , Ebersberg ceased to exist as an independent municipality on December 31, 1971 and became a district of Ebersburg. This community ceded the old Ebersberger hamlets and farms Leimbachshof, Leimbachsmühle, Huhnrain, Hettenpaulshof, Unterdanielshof, Oberdanielshof, Wiegerich and Bienhof on August 1, 1972 to the Poppenhausen community . Ebersberg lost almost a quarter of its area and 50 inhabitants with around 240 hectares.

Infrastructure

In 1968 a central water supply system was put into operation in the Oberrod district. After drilling to a depth of 60 meters, an elevated tank with 250 cubic meters of water could be built, which could supply the scattered courtyards with hygienic drinking, industrial and extinguishing water via a pipeline network of 21 kilometers in length. In dry years, the sufficient supply of the residents and the cattle via farm pumps was not always guaranteed and water sometimes had to be delivered in barrels.

The mills located on the Lütter were not only in operation as a grain, oil and saw mill, but some also used to power parts of the community. The Leimbachsmühle has been generating electricity from water power since 1921, the flint mill as early as 1919. From 1940 onwards, the electricity was supplied by the Fulda overland plant.

In the course of land consolidation from 1957, the road network was significantly improved. Up until then, some of the remote farms were barely accessible by car. New bridges were built, for example at the Johannesmühle, where heavy carts had to go through the Lütter before.

  • CDU - 4 mandates
