history

Territorial development

The place Effolderbach is first mentioned on January 30, 1034 as Affalterbahc . In the Middle Ages and early modern times, the place belonged to the Ortenberg Office , a condominium formed by three sovereigns from among the members of the Wetterau Counts' Association . In 1601 there was a real division of this condominium.

The village itself remained a condominium: in 1787 2/6 of it belonged to the Landgraviate of Hessen-Darmstadt and was assigned to the Principality of Upper Hesse , Lißberg . 1/6 belonged to the county of Isenburg-Büdingen , Amt Büdingen , court Düdelsheim , 3/6 to the principality of Stolberg-Gedern , where it was assigned to the county of Königstein and its Amt Gedern . In 1806 the Stolberg share and in 1816 also the Isenburg share, the latter by resolution of the Congress of Vienna , fell to Hessen-Darmstadt, which had meanwhile become the Grand Duchy of Hesse . Here Effolderbach belonged 1/3 to the grand ducal dominal office Ortenberg , 1/3 to the civil office of Gedern and 1/3 to the office of Mockstadt . In 1821 the Grand Duchy formed the district of Nidda , into which all parts of the former Ortenberg office were merged and which was called Kreis Nidda from 1832 .

The statistical-topographical-historical description of the Grand Duchy of Hesse reports on Effolderbach in 1830:

"Effolderbach (L. Bez. Nidda) evangel. Branch village; is 2 St. from Nidda an der Nidder, has 68 houses and 400 inhabitants, who are Protestant except for 2 Catholics, and among them are 36 farmers, 12 farmers and craftsmen, 24 craftsmen and 9 day laborers. The place has a church and the inhabitants, apart from agriculture, are heavily involved in fattening hammers, linen weaving and plum drying and trading. - Hessen already owned this village in community with Stollberg-Gedern and Isenburg-Büdingen. In 1806 the Stollberg-Gedernsche, now Stollberg-Wernigerodische Antheil, and in 1816 the Isenburg Büdingensche Antheil came under Hess. Your Highness. "

With the revolution of 1848 the administrative district of Nidda was briefly formed, but in 1852 the district of Nidda was revived. In 1874 the areas of the former Ortenberg district became part of the Büdingen district , which became part of the Wetterau district with the regional reform in Hessen in 1972 . Effolderbach was incorporated into the town of Ortenberg on December 31, 1971 .

Church affiliation

Before the Reformation the place belonged to the Diocese of Mainz and there to the parish of the Konradsdorf Monastery . The central church authority was the archdeaconate of the provost of the Ilbenstadt monastery .

In the course of the Reformation, all rulers of the Ortenberg condominium joined the Reformation, which also made Effolderbach find its way.
