history

The first documentary mention was in 1313, when Albert Förtsch von Thurnau bequeathed half a manse to the 16 chair brothers in Bamberg in “Vezzelnorf”.

As a result of the formation of communities in Bavaria after the Second Constitution of the Kingdom of Bavaria was passed , Fesselsdorf formed a community with the district of Kaltenhausen from 1818. From 1822 it belonged to the ruling court and later to the court and police authorities and then to the Thurnau regional court in the Kulmbach district office . On January 1, 1978, Fesselsdorf and its district were incorporated into Weismain.

To commemorate the St. Georg pilgrimage chapel, which was destroyed by a Weismainer mob in the 14th century, a St. George's chapel was built in the Kaltenhausen district in 1997. The topping-out ceremony was celebrated on September 27, the completion took place in 1998. A bronze plaque indicates the history of the chapel.
