Großholz, seen from Markt Berolzheim

Großholz is a district of Markt Berolzheim in the Weißenburg-Gunzenhausen district in Central Franconia .

location

The wasteland lies on the plateau of the Hahnenkamm between the Berolzheim Forest in the north and the valley of the Eastern Rohrach in the south. Großholz can be reached via roadways from the neighboring towns of Falbenthal and Rohrach (both around 1.5 kilometers away) and from Markt Berolzheim.

Place name interpretation

The name of the settlement originated from a field name and can be interpreted as "(courtyard) to the great forest".

history

In 1383 the Counts Johann and Oswald von Truhendingen gave Anna Geiselsheimer zu Gunzenhausen and her son Ulrich the "farm called Grozzholtz located above Peroltzheim" as their own property . For 1388 it is documented that a fiefdom to “Grosholcz” to the Benedictine monastery Wülzburg was subject to taxes. In 1520 Count Albrecht von Hohenlohe gave the Hof zu Großholz to Veit von Lentersheim as a fief; this feudal relationship between the lords of Hohenlohe and the lords of Lentersheim on Altenmuhr remained in place for Großholz until the Lentersheimers died out at the end of the 18th century. The high jurisdiction exercised from 1535 the Margravial Brandenburg administration office Hohentrüdingen, while the lower jurisdiction belonged to the Lentersheimers. Even under their rule, the Großholzhof was divided into two half courtyards.

As is documented for 1732, Großholz belonged to the lower parish of Berolzheim; from Großzehent two thirds went to the office administrator margravial Berolzheim and one third to the bischöflich-eichstättische Official Plein field , while the Kleinzehent between the managers office Berolzheim and Lower Parish Berolzheim changed.

Since 1806 in the new Kingdom of Bavaria , Großholz was subject to the Altenmuhr Patrimonial Court until 1822 . In 1808, the hamlet was incorporated into the Berolzheim tax district , which became a municipal municipality in 1809 and a market municipality in the district court of Heidenheim in 1818 . In the course of the regional reform in Bavaria , Markt Berolzheim (the place name since 1920) came on July 1, 1972 with large timber from the Gunzenhausen district to the new Weißenburg-Gunzenhausen district, which was initially called the Weißenburg district in Bavaria .

Großholz was closely connected to Markt Berolzheim, geographically, ecclesiastically and through blood ties. The place once consisted of one, since the 18th century of two farms. It was not connected to the electricity grid until 1957 and to the water supply in 1962. The first asphalt driveway to Großholz was opened in November 2013, before the place could only be reached via gravel roads.
