geography

Location of the hamlet of Gräffingen

Gräffingen is located shortly after the beginning of the spring-rich Umpfertal . The development of the hamlet extends on both sides of the Umpfer with a few houses.

history

The place was first mentioned in 1245 as Greuin winds . It is a settlement of the Wends of the Franconian times, which was created from the neighboring Uiffingen . In 1390 the place consisted of only one farm. The lordship fluctuated between Boxberg and the Schüpfergrund as well as the Cent Boxberg and the Cent Königshofen . In 1610, Electoral Palatinate acquired the last quarter of the town from Eberhard von Dienheim. Since then the place has belonged entirely to the Oberamt Boxberg and, like this one, came to Leiningen in 1803 before the place became Baden in 1806.

The place came as part of the formerly independent municipality Uiffingen on January 1, 1973 to the city of Boxberg.

religion

Ecclesiastically, the place originally belonged to the parish of Uiffingen . With the Reformation, the Reformed came to Boxberg. Today the Evangelicals belong to Uiffingen again. For a long time, Catholics were legally part of Angeltürn , but were pastored from Kupprichhausen . Today the Catholics belong to Kupprichhausen.

traffic

Gräffingen is on the Frankenbahn , but without its own stop. From Uiffingen the hamlet can be reached after about two kilometers via the Gräffinger Straße of the same name , which then continues to the L 579 at Buch am Ahorn .
