history

On June 1, 932, Großenbehringen was first mentioned in a document.

From the end of the 13th century until the end of the secularization of the monastery property in the 16th century, the Wettins established a state administration and the establishment of administrative districts. Here, the Behringen places north of the Nesse went to the Gotha office ; at the same time, the majority of them came under the direct administration of the von Wangenheim noble family ( Wangenheim court ) as aristocratic types .

On May 1, 1890, Großenbehringen was connected to the railway network and became the end point of the Nessetalbahn . After the Second World War, the line was closed on September 15, 1947 and dismantled as a reparation payment. On July 1, 1950, Großenbehringen, Oesterbehringen and Wolfsbehringen merged to form the municipality of Behringen .
