history
Until the church is planted
Giebelstadt is named after the Alemannic noble clan of the Gibule and was first mentioned in a document in 820. In the 13th and 14th centuries, the ministerial families Geyer and Zobel owned land and fiefdoms there and exercised joint rulership rights in the village ( condominium village ). The ruins of the Geyerschloss and the Zobelschloss still bear witness to this time . The Friesenhausen Castle was started in 1687 by Hans Heinrich Zobel von Giebelstadt zu Friesenhausen and completed by his son Johann Gottlob Zobel and his wife Maria Sophia von Berlichingen around 1700. The Freiherrlich Zobel'sche beer brewery was housed there from 1814 to 1916; today it serves as the town hall.
Later, the Prussian principality of Ansbach (as successor to the Counts of Geyer ) and the Barons von Zobel shared power. Both rights came in 1806 to the Grand Duchy of Würzburg of Archduke Ferdinand of Tuscany , with which Giebelstadt fell to the Kingdom of Bavaria in 1814 . In the course of the administrative reforms in Bavaria, today's municipality was created with the municipal edict of 1818 .
19th to 21st century
After 1848 Giebelstadt became part of the district and tax office and the district court of Ochsenfurt . On July 1, 1972, the market came to the Würzburg district .
Jewish families had lived in the village since at least the 18th century . A Jewish cemetery was established in the Allersheim district as early as the 17th century . In 1799 a synagogue was built , which was devastated by SA men during the November pogrom in 1938 and demolished in 1944. A memorial plaque in the courtyard of the town hall reminds of this.
In 1935 the Giebelstadt Air Base was built by the Luftwaffe and opened on September 17, 1936 during a troop parade by Adolf Hitler . The first aircraft to be stationed were Heinkel He 111 bombers belonging to Kampfgeschwader 53 , which was stationed in Giebelstadt at the beginning of World War II . Several missions were flown to the front in France from the Giebelstadt airfield during World War II. In addition, the first tests with the jet-powered Messerschmitt Me 262 and the rocket- powered Messerschmitt Me 163 were made there under strict secrecy . The Giebelstadt airfield was therefore the target of heavy bombing attacks towards the end of the war. The damage to the air base was repaired in 1944 by prisoners from the Flossenbürg concentration camp , who were also used to expand the air base. Before the German troops surrendered , the airfield was taken by the American 12th Armored Division .
After the Second World War, the airfield was taken over by the United States Army Air Forces and was called "Giebelstadt Airfield" from then on. In 1947 the runway was expanded to its current length. U2 spy planes were stationed there . From January 15, 1948 to 1950, the airport was closed and only manned by a guard. The airfield was later used by missile units of the US Army and the German Armed Forces . From 1981 to July 1, 2000, the 12th Army Aviation Brigade and the 69th Air Defense Artillery ( Patriot ) of the United States Army were stationed in Giebelstadt.
After the withdrawal of the US troops, the use of the military airfield was discontinued. The site reverted to the Federal Republic of Germany on December 31, 2006.
The Bundeswehr was also represented with the Air Force medical school in the Klingholz district.
Incorporations
Before the municipal reform , Giebelstadt belonged to the district of Ochsenfurt . This was dissolved on July 1, 1972 and at the same time the previously independent municipality of Euerhausen was incorporated. On January 1, 1978, the Allersheim and Herchsheim markets were added. Eßfeld, Ingolstadt in Lower Franconia and Sulzdorf followed on May 1, 1978.

politics
mayor
From May 1990 to April 2002 the Giebelstadt market was headed by the CSU mayor Volker Kleinfeld. After there had been no serious competitors for the mayor's office for years, the UWG (Independent Voting Association) succeeded in presenting a new face in Paul Merklein, who also just won the local elections in 2002.
After community politics had been the scene of violent agitations and disputes for many years, Helmut Krämer, a former UWG council member, became the mayoral candidate of the newly founded civic alliances. He was able to replace the previous mayor in the 2008 election . In the 2014 local elections , he was confirmed in office with 84.2% of the valid votes. With a turnout of 58.3%, Krämer was re-elected for a further six years on March 15, 2020 with 89.5% of the vote (excluding competitors).
Market council
The municipal council has 20 members; an additional member qua office is the mayor. In the municipal council election on March 15, 2020 , the three groups of voters received the following votes and seats:
Independent Free Voting Association eV | 38.33% | 8 seats |
Citizen Alliance Gable City | 36.86% | 7 seats |
Citizens' alliance districts | 24.81% | 5 seats |
Compared to the 2014–2020 term of office, the Bürger-Bündnis-Giebelstadt had to give up a seat to the Independent Free Voting Association. The turnout was 58.31%
