Edingen ( listen ^?^/^I ) is a district of the municipality of Sinn in the Lahn-Dill district in central Hesse .

geography

The village is located on the western side of the Dill Valley , in the Westerwald and below the Greifenstein castle ruins and the village of Greifenstein .

history

Presumably there was already a settlement on the site in early Germanic times, as both finds from the 4th century BC. BC as well as the place name give clues to it.

The first documentary mention in 1341 refers to the "Edinger Hof", which is considered a settlement crystallization point. The settlement is referred to as Ödingen in the handover document to the Counts of Nassau-Dillenburg . In 1629 the Edinger Hof came to the House of Solms-Greifenstein by dividing the estate and in 1851 to the Edingen community, which sold the Edinger Hof to three private individuals in 1921.

Territorial reform

As part of the Hessian regional reform , the previously independent municipality of Edingen was incorporated as a district according to Sinn on January 1, 1977 by the law to reorganize the Dill district, the districts of Gießen and Wetzlar and the city of Gießen . For the Edingen district, as for the other formerly independent municipalities, a local district with a local advisory board and mayor was set up.

At Edingen, before the regional reform, the border ran between the Dillkreis and the Wetzlar district , which today form the Lahn-Dill district as the northern and southern parts. Therefore, when there are differences or communication difficulties between these parts of the district, the so-called " Edinger Wall " is still used today.
