In 1502 there were 31 men living in the village (probably heads of household). By 1788 the number of inhabitants rose to 400. The old Protestant church was demolished in March 1827, the new one consecrated 18 months later. The old school was built in 1877. A new school followed in 1902. The population had risen to 608 in 1885. By resolution of the district council of the Marburg district, the school in Wollmar was closed on January 1st, 1971.

In the course of the regional reform in Hesse on July 1, 1974, the municipality of Wollmar was incorporated into the municipality of Münchhausen by state law.

The newly built village community center was inaugurated on June 16, 1976.

Territorial history and administration

The following list gives an overview of the territories in which Wollmar was located and the administrative units to which it was subordinate:

Courts since 1821

With an edict of June 29, 1821, administration and justice were separated in Kurhessen. Now judicial offices were responsible for the first instance jurisdiction, the administration was taken over by the districts. The Marburg district was responsible for the administration and the Wetter Judicial Office was the court of first instance for Wollmar. The Supreme Court was the Higher Appeal Court in Kassel . The higher court of Marburg was subordinate to the province of Upper Hesse. It was the second instance for the judicial offices.

After the annexation of Kurhessen by Prussia, the judicial office of Wetter became the royal Prussian district court of Wetter in 1867 . In June 1867, a royal ordinance was issued that reorganized the court system in the areas that belonged to the former Electorate of Hesse. The previous judicial authorities were to be repealed and replaced by local courts in the first, district courts in the second and an appeal court in the third instance. In the course of this, on September 1, 1867, the previous judicial office was renamed the Wetter District Court. The courts of the higher authorities were the Marburg District Court and the Kassel Court of Appeal .

Even with the entry into force of the Courts Constitution Act (GVG) in 1877, the district court remained in existence. In 1943 the district court became a branch of the district court of Marburg and in 1946 the branch was also closed. The district of the district court of Wetter merged with the district of the district court of Marburg.

In the Federal Republic of Germany, the superordinate instances are the Marburg Regional Court , the Frankfurt am Main Higher Regional Court and the Federal Court of Justice as the last instance.
