Eifa is a district of Hatzfeld (Eder) in the northern Hessian district of Waldeck-Frankenberg .
geography
Eifa is located on the edge of the Rothaargebirge , about 3 km east of the 673.5 m high Sackpfeife mountain and immediately west of the 583 m high coal mountain . The district of Marburg-Biedenkopf borders directly on the village. Eifa is located south of the core town. The federal road 253 and the state road 553 run through the village .
history
The district was already settled by the Celts . In the first century BC these were replaced by the chats . This is evidenced by the discovery of the new construction of the road from Hatzfeld to Lindenhof, a Germanic burial ground on the height of Lindenhof .
The place is first mentioned on April 10, 1261. In this document, the Battenberg aldermen Luivigus de Ypfe and other citizens and aristocrats testify to the sale of goods in the Hainagebirge to the Haina monastery . From 1351 a separate court Eifa can be proven, which belonged to the family von Eppe , but was pledged again and again in parts. In this way, the neighboring lords of Hatzfeld were able to extend their influence on the court before 1400 . Even before 1490, however, they had to recognize the feudal sovereignty of the Hessian landgraves .
The statistical-topographical-historical description of the Grand Duchy of Hesse reports about Eifa in 1830:
"Eifa (L. Bez. Battenberg) evangel. Branch village; is located 2 St. from Battenberg, has 35 houses and 263 inhabitants. Several ore veins occur here in 1660, and a vein to Eisenerz was in operation in 1677. "
Territorial reform
On January 1, 1974, Eifa was incorporated into the city of Hatzfeld (Eder) in the course of the regional reform in Hesse by virtue of state law. For Eifa, as for the other parts of the city, a local district with a local advisory board and local councilor was formed.
Castle ruins
The castle was probably built in the 13th century by an unknown lord to control an old trade route . She was on a mountain spur of the coal mountain . Visible remains of the wall are no longer there.
