history
The history of Graefen-Nitzendorf is very closely linked to the history of the neighboring town of Bad Salzungen.
First mention
Gräfendorf and Nitzendorf and the neighboring Neuendorf were first mentioned in documents in 1330.
Graefen-Nitzendorf in the Middle Ages
According to the townscape, it is a street village with two settlement centers about 300 m away. The two districts were originally owned by the Lords of Frankenstein , they came to the Counts of Henneberg in 1330 and from them to the House of Wettin in 1353 . The nunnery Allendorf, richly wealthy in the Bad Salzungen region, was built below the castle from 1272 onwards . Most of the surrounding villages passed into the possession of the monastery in the 14th century after the violent destruction of Frankenstein Castle . The field names Frankenstein and Klosterberg are reminiscent of this time. During the Peasants' War, in 1525, the Allendorf monastery was attacked and heavily devastated by the rebellious peasants of the Werrahaufen . The landscape around Graefen-Nitzendorf was bounded by an extensive moor in the north for centuries. The Salzunger Forste and the forests of the neighboring towns had to deliver firewood and later also thorn bushes for the operation of the Salzunger Saline until the 19th century . The woods near Neuendorf and Graefen-Nitzendorf, which are mostly used as Hauwald , were given the descriptive name Heckenwald , as the trees that grew back usually did not grow larger than hedges before they were felled again.
Modern times
After the Thirty Years' War both districts came in 1680 as part of the Office Salzungen to the Duchy of Saxe-Meiningen , in an administrative reform in 1868 was the district Meiningen . In 1950 the districts were included in the newly created Bad Salzungen district . After 1820, the Gumpelstädter head forester Trautwein , a pupil of the Oberforstrat Heinrich Cotta , ensured that the farmers of the communities bordering the moorland received new cultivation areas and meadows through amelioration and soil fertilization. He had a dense network of drainage ditches built, dirt roads expanded and promoted the establishment of orchards and beekeeping. By the end of the 19th century, the Heckendörfer developed into a center of beekeeping in Thuringia.
present
In 1955 there were 170 inhabitants in the village. On January 1, 1974, the municipality of Graefendorf-Nitzendorf was incorporated into the municipality of Möhra. On November 4, 1994 Möhra was merged with Moorgrund and Kupfersuhl to form the municipality of Moorgrund, so that Graefen-Nitzendorf also became part of the municipality of Moorgrund.
By creating a new housing estate between the old town centers, a closed settlement structure with a rural character emerged after 1990, and at the same time the number of inhabitants doubled. The center of community life in the village is the "Waldesruh" - the small excursion restaurant opened in 1908 was originally intended for the spa guests of Bad Salzungen.
