history

Until the 19th century

Ermershausen was first documented in 1049 as Ermannshuson in Helendungero marca , d. H. in the Hellinger mark. During the Thirty Years War the place was devastated several times. The Lords of Hutten lived in Birkenfeld from 1475 until they died out in 1783 , and owned both Ermershausen and Birkenfeld. In 1814, Ermershausen fell to Bavaria . 1818 was the municipality Ermershausen. In 1830 a Jewish cemetery was built in Ermershausen .

Struggle for independence

The place achieved some notoriety as the Rebel Village in 1978 . The residents vehemently opposed integration into the municipality of Maroldsweisach through the municipal reform . This culminated in the occupation of the town hall and the erection of barricades by citizens of Ermershausen with the aim of preventing the relocation of the municipal administration to Maroldsweisach. A large number of citizens threatened to cross over to the territory of the GDR and moved to the nearby border, where already opened border gates were waiting for the citizens.

The village was finally by several squadrons of riot police stormed early on May 19, 1978 at three o'clock and cleared the town hall. The incorporation was completed on May 1, 1978. Subsequently, the Ermershäuser fought for their "freedom" for 15 years. To this end, they declared May 15th a general day of remembrance, on which they sounded the "freedom bell" at the town hall at night. The residents of the village complained that it was not furniture or files that had been taken from them that night, but the respect for the state. Since January 1st 1994, however, Ermershausen has been independent again, the state had declared the incorporation "failed" and thus one of the smallest independent municipalities in Bavaria. The withdrawal of the incorporation was achieved u. a. also because the then CSU district councilor Sebastian von Rotenhan - and former CSU member of the state parliament - was able to recruit 278 new members for the CSU overnight in order to be able to build up the pressure within the party accordingly.

Incorporations

On July 1, 1973, the Birkenfeld market and the community of Dippach were incorporated. Both districts were reclassified on May 1, 1978 on the occasion of the incorporation of Ermershausen to Maroldsweisach. When Ermershausen became independent again on January 1, 1994, Birkenfeld and Dippach stayed with Maroldsweisach.
