history
middle Ages
Geudertheim was a condominium . Half of it belonged to the Brumath office of the Lichtenberg rule and the other half to the Lords of Gottesheim (Geudertheim) and was a fiefdom of the Electoral Palatinate .
Anna von Lichtenberg (* 1442; † 1474), one of Ludwig V's two heirs, married Count Philip I the Elder of Hanau-Babenhausen (* 1417; † 1480) in 1458, who had a small secondary school from the County of Hanau had received in order to be able to marry her. The county of Hanau-Lichtenberg came into being through the marriage . After the death of the last Lichtenberger, Count Jakob, one of Anna's uncle, Philip I d. Ä. In 1480 half of the Lichtenberg rule, the other half went to his brother-in-law, Simon IV. Wecker von Zweibrücken-Bitsch . The Brumath office was initially a condominium between Hanau-Lichtenberg and Zweibrücken-Bitsch. Under the government of Count Philip III. From Hanau-Lichtenberg there was then a real division: The Brumath office came entirely to Zweibrücken-Bitsch. In contrast, the Willstätt office , which also came from the Lichtenberg legacy and was a condominium between the two houses, was transferred entirely to the County of Hanau-Lichtenberg.
Early modern age
However, there was another inheritance in 1570, which also brought the Brumath office and thus the village of Geudertheim to the County of Hanau-Lichtenberg: Count Jakob von Zweibrücken-Bitsch (* 1510; † 1570) and his brother Simon V. Wecker , who had died in 1540, left behind only one daughter each as heiress. Count Jakob's daughter, Margarethe (* 1540; † 1569), was married to Philipp V von Hanau-Lichtenberg (* 1541; † 1599). The legacy resulting from this constellation also included the second half of the former rule of Lichtenberg, which was not already ruled by Hanau-Lichtenberg, and included the office of Brumath with Geudertheim. In 1570, the ruling Count of Hanau-Lichtenberg carried out the Reformation in Geudertheim as well , in the Lutheran version.
As a result of France's reunion policy , the Amt Brumath and the village of Geudertheim also fell under French sovereignty in 1680.
1736 died with Count Johann Reinhard III. the last male representative of the Hanau family. Due to the marriage of his only daughter, Charlotte (* 1700; † 1726), with the Hereditary Prince Ludwig (VIII.) (* 1691; † 1768) of Hesse-Darmstadt , he inherited the county of Hanau-Lichtenberg. In the course of the French Revolution , the left bank of the Hanau-Lichtenberg county - and thus Geudertheim - fell to France.
From 1871 until the end of the First World War , Geudertheim belonged to the German Empire as part of the realm of Alsace-Lorraine and was assigned to the Strasbourg district in the Lower Alsace district .
