Federhof is a district of Hilpoltstein in the Middle Franconian district of Roth in Bavaria .

location

The wasteland lies in the foothills of the Middle Franconian Jura northwest of the Kauerlacher Weiher and southeast of Meckenhausen in an angle formed by the A 9 motorway and the Main-Danube Canal . The parish seat is about twelve kilometers to the northwest.

The Federhof corridor is around 77 hectares in size.

Place name interpretation

The place name, pronounced “Vöderhof” in the northern Gauze dialect, means “the front yard”.

history

At Federhof there is a castle stable; one of the last three male families of Meckenhausen could have had its seat there.

With the Palatinate-Neuburgian office of Hilpoltstein, Federhof with its two Eichstättischen courts was pledged to the imperial city of Nuremberg from 1542 to 1578 . The description of the goods made by Nuremberg, a Salbuch from 1544, is the first written evidence for Federhof; There it is said that the two courts of Eichstätt "with interest, tax, Gilt and Vogtei" belong to the Eichstättische Amt Obermässing, but with the "high authority", ie the high jurisdiction, "gen (Hilpolt) -Stein". When the Brandenburg-Ansbach margrave Albrecht Alcibiades was in feud with the imperial city of Nuremberg ( Second Margrave War ) in 1552/53 and devastated the area around Hilpoltstein with scorching and burning fire, Federhof was also set on fire. In the 16th century the Federhof had the Nuremberg patrician family Rieter to fief .

Towards the end of the Old Kingdom , around 1800, Federhof, with Rabenhof and Kauerlach belonging to the municipality of Meckenhausen, still consisted of two subject properties, which were subordinate to the noble Eichstättischen care and caste office Obermässing and high court to the now electoral care office Hilpoltstein.

In the new Kingdom of Bavaria (1806), Federhof was assigned to the tax district or the municipality of Meckenhausen. In 1820, 15 residents lived in the two Federhof properties. In 1831 the pond at the Federhof is said to have “a lot of water fowl”. In 1875 15 horses and 25 cattle were officially counted in Federhof.

After the Second World War, refugees and displaced persons found refuge in the two courtyards, the number of residents temporarily increased by around ten people.

As part of the regional reform in Bavaria , the previously independent large community of Meckenhausen with the district of Federhof, which had been joined by nine other places on January 1, 1972, was incorporated into Hilpoltstein on July 1, 1976.

Federhof Nr. 1 is the seat of the “Marktgemeinschaft Rother Spargel GmbH” as the “Spargelhof”.

The court chapel is St. Dedicated to Crescentia von Kaufbeuren († 1744; canonized 2001). The four-pillar late baroque / classicistic altar has an altarpiece of St. Crescentia and in the elevator a circular picture with the Coronation of Mary.
