history

There was a church in Markt Erlbach when it was first mentioned in a document in 815. There was the original parish of the Zenngrund . Around 1275/76, the Nuremberg burgrave Friedrich III. donated the Birkenfeld monastery. Noble ladies were raised there who did not necessarily have to devote themselves to the clergy. The nuns called themselves the "Sisters of the Gray Order". They were under the supervision of the abbot of the Cistercian - ebrach abbey . The monastery was burned down on the 13th Main in 1525 during the Peasants' War . In Münchsteinach, the second monastery was in the deanery area. 1130 was a Benedictine - monastery Steinach donated. It was also badly destroyed in the Peasants' War in 1525. After the secularization of the monastery in 1528, the first Protestant pastor was sent to Münchsteinach in 1530. During the Reformation , sovereignty lay in a large part of today's deanery district with the Margraviate of Brandenburg-Kulmbach .

In 1528 the Reformation was introduced in the margraviate. It was able to gain a foothold in Unteresselbach as early as 1520. The Birkenfeld Monastery was completely secularized in 1543 . Sugenheim became Protestant under Baron von Seckendorff-Aberdar in 1524. The brothers Schutzbar called Milchling bought the manors Wilhelmsdorf and Neidhardswinden from Wolff von Wilhelmsdorf in 1566. In 1569, the Reformation was introduced in Herrnneuses by Heinrich Herrmann Milchling. Neidhardswinden and Wilhermsdorf followed around 1572. At that time the Catholic altars were removed from the churches. In 1686 Huguenots who had fled France came to the overgrown Albach Valley under the leadership of Pastor Jean Bonnet. There they built a small settlement with a church made of clay and wood. The successor church was consecrated on August 18, 1754. From 1873 the Huguenot church was shared by the Lutherans and in 1927 it became their property.

In 1556 the Ansbach dean's office was established in Neustadt. In 1810 the transition to a Bavarian deanery took place.
