State road 2428 runs through Eckartshausen and connects the place with federal road 279 in Maroldsweisach and federal road 303 in Hafenpreppach .

history

The place name indicates the establishment by Frankish settlers and probably refers to the landlord. It means "at the houses of a Eckehard". The first documentary mention was in the Urbarium of 1317, a listing of possessions of the Henneberger when acquiring the new rule , as "Eckerichehusen". The part of the village that was given to the knight Aple von Lichtenstein as a fiefdom consisted of a farm and seven estates. The other part of the village with 17 estates was owned by the lords of Stein zu Altenstein .

In 1322/1333 the brothers Fritz and Herbordus von Abersfeld received half a tithe in "Eckertshusen".

When Michael von Lichtenstein, a Bamberg cathedral provost, was to become a fiefdom holder by inheritance in 1570, a dispute arose which was ended by an arbitration ruling by the Imperial Court of Justice. As a result, the village part of the Protestant Billmuthhauser line was given to the von Lichtenstein family as a fief. After the Thirty Years' War the village was largely desolate . When the Billmuthhäuser line had died out, Duke Moritz zu Sachsen-Zeitz transferred the Eckartshauser estates to Herrengosserstedt in 1656 . In 1711 it was sold to Baron Ernst von Stein, who then ruled the entire village.

Between 1706 and 1904 the village belonged to the Evangelical Lutheran parish in Altenstein , six kilometers away , to which a church path led. Debts forced the brothers Carl Franz and Christoph Franz von Stein to sell their property including the rights of use in Eckartshausen in 1810 to Franz Konrad von Schrottenberg , a Bamberg privy councilor and court marshal. Previously, in 1805, the community had acquired around 72 hectares of forests, the redwood and the Rothschlag, for 7,000 guilders. In the period that followed, these were important sources of income, like the community beds on the Hainach. Clay pits on the Zeilberghang and fruit growing also contributed to the prosperity of the community and its residents in the 18th century.

In 1862 Eckartshausen was incorporated into the newly created Bavarian District Office in Ebern . In 1871 the church village had 177 residents and 36 residential buildings. The evangelical school was in place. In 1900 the rural community had 153 inhabitants, of whom 147 were Protestant, and 33 residential buildings. From 1904 the responsible Evangelical Lutheran parish was in Maroldsweisach, 3.1 kilometers away, and in 1925 the place had 149 people, all of whom were Protestant, in 30 residential buildings. The village belonged to the district of the Catholic parish in Pfarrweisach, 7.5 kilometers away .

After the Second World War , the location on the inner-German border shaped the town until 1989 . In 1950 there were 32 residential buildings with 237 residents in what was then the church village. In 1970 Eckartshausen had 184 inhabitants, in 1987 174 inhabitants and 44 residential buildings with 53 apartments. On July 1, 1972, the district of Ebern was dissolved and Eckartshausen came to the Haßberg district. On May 1, 1978, the community was incorporated into Maroldsweisach.

There was a school in Eckartshausen since 1704, a school followed a few years later. In 1924 a new school building was erected, which was replaced by a modern new building in 1965 and closed after the school reform in the early 1970s.

Attractions

Evangelical Lutheran Church

The current Evangelical-Lutheran village church was built by the von Stein family. The inauguration was in 1764. Nothing is known about the construction of the first church building in Eckartshausen. The two bells date from the 13th century. The hall church has a choir tower, which is essentially late medieval, with a half-timbered construction on the second floor and a pointed helmet. In the choir room is the organ gallery with an organ with five registers from 1906. The ten by five meter, two-axis nave has a tile-roofed gable roof .

A total of two architectural monuments are listed in the Bavarian Monument List .
