history

Geutreuth was first mentioned as "Jvtenrut" in 1230 when Bishop Eckbert von Bamberg handed over goods to Langheim Abbey.

In older research, the original place name is given as "Wugastarode". The prefix suggests a founder with the male name Guto or Guta.

The components of the name -reuth, -rode , -röden and -roth indicate that the jungle was cleared in order to create a settlement. In 1230, the name "Jutenrut" appeared for the place, which is explained as Reut des Juto or Juta , which is the same name as the prefix Wuga , but which was slightly alienated by being passed on orally. Other names appeared, such as "Juttenreuth" (1290), "Geuttthenreuth iuxta Wismain" (1309), "Jewtenrewt before the Weißmeyner Forest" (1431) and "Geitenreuth" (1622).

In 1230 Geutenreuth came to the Cistercian monastery Langheim as a branch of the original parish Altenkunstadt and belonged to this parish until the end of the 19th century. According to oral tradition, there were two ways to get to the parish: the Leichenweg , before Geutenreuth had no cemetery , and the Brautweg. The latter is still there today as a sign between Geutenreuth and Baiersdorf .

In the Margrave War (1552–1554) the village was almost completely burned down. Also in the Thirty Years War (1618-1648) the village, like most of the localities in the area, was badly affected; even the church was damaged. The nave of the church was renovated almost 100 years later and was given its current shape in 1743.

Geutreuth was detached from Klosterlangheim in 1803 when, under Napoleon, a number of prince-bishops, monasteries and towns in Franconia (region) and Swabia came to Bavaria through the Imperial Deputation.

A regional reform divided Bavaria into counties and municipalities. From 1829 district administrators were at the head of the districts. According to the Bavarian municipal edict of 1818, the political municipality of Geutenreuth was formed in the same year with the villages of Motschenbach , Dörfles, Pöhl and Wüstenreuth and Geutenreuth as the municipal capital. The community was dissolved on July 1, 1972. Geutenreuth was moved to Weismain, the other places were reclassified to Mainleus .
