The street village of Großobringen is located in the north of the Weimarer Land district on the northeastern roof of the Großer Ettersberg and on the southern edge of the Thuringian Basin . The federal highway 85 leads through the community coming from Weimar to Kölleda and to the terminus Kelbra leading to the federal highway 38 .

history

The surrounding area was settled as early as the Neolithic Age. The road leading over the Ettersberg at that time was also an occasion for settlement. The finds from the area, above all the earthworks of Großobringen , belong to the cultures of the Middle and Younger Stone Age.

The place Großobringen was first mentioned in 1221 in a document from the Heusdorf monastery . In 1367 the place name changes to Grossin Oberingen. Most of the mediaeval property belonged to the noble family von Ohaben. This family is historically verifiable from 1294 to 1353 and belonged to the ministry of the Counts of Weimar-Orlamünde .

The manor did not have its own patrimonial jurisdiction and changed hands several times. It belonged to the Lords of Meusebach (Amt Buttelstedt ) until 1489 . After the acquisition by the Ernestine Elector, Großobringen belonged to the Weimar office . On April 2, 1680 Friedrich Wilhelm von Harras acquired Großobringen from Philipp Heinrich and Otto Heinrich von Eberstein. The von Harras owned the manor for three generations. Only after a feudal process in 1778 were they expropriated by the Duke of Saxony-Weimar and Eisenach and the manor was turned into a ducal box.

In 1714 the manor was destroyed by fire.

On January 1, 2019, the municipality of Großobringen was merged with other municipalities of the administrative community of Northern Weimar to form the rural municipality of Am Ettersberg .
