history

The first mention of courts can be found in a document of the Roman-German King Rudolf I , in which the Brothers Mountain (Altenberg), the village courts on 24 April 1282 the Viscount Friedrich III. lost by Nuremberg . During this period, the four surrounding villages of Großreuth bei Schweinau , Kleinreuth, Leyh and Geuschmithof (today's Gaismannshof) are mentioned for the first time.

At that time, Höfen was made up of seven properties (developed properties), all of which were located on what is now Weikershoferstraße ( street village ).

When Margrave Albrecht Achilles , later Elector of Brandenburg , advanced to Nuremberg on July 10, 1449 because of previous disputes with the Nuremberg Council over the claims to power over the neighboring Gostenhof, Höfen was burned down together with the villages of Gebersdorf, Groß- and Kleinreuth Schweinau and Sündersbühl . The following years were also marked by frequent acts of war, looting and famine. In the more peaceful years that followed, the farmers were able to rebuild the farms to their previous size.

In 1721, due to the increased population, a school owner was hired in Höfen. Since the community of Höfen was still too poor to build a school, the lessons took place in different buildings.

At the end of the 18th century there were 18 properties in Höfen. The high court exercised the Brandenburg-Ansbach Oberamt Cadolzburg , but this was disputed by the imperial city of Nuremberg . The village and community rulership was alternately taken over by the landlords. The landlords were the Bamberg cathedral provost office in Fürth (2 half yards, 1 tavern); the imperial city of Nuremberg: Landesalmosenamt (3 half courtyards, 1 house), hospital office (2 half courtyards); the Nuremberg owners von Ebner (2 half yards), von Imhoff (1 yard, 1 estate), von Peller (2 half yards) and von Tucher (2 half yards). The community had a shepherd's house and a fire house.

As part of the municipal edict , the Höfen tax district was formed in 1808 , to which Eberhardshof , Gaismannshof , Leyh , Muggenhof and Weikershof belonged. In the same year the rural community Höfen was formed, which was congruent with the tax district. In administration and jurisdiction it was subordinate to the Regional Court of Nuremberg and in financial administration to the Fürth Rent Office . In the voluntary jurisdiction, 3 properties were subject to the Patrimonial Court (PG) Höfen until 1812 and from 1823 to 1835 , 1 property until 1812 and from 1820 to 1848 to the PG Lichtenhof and 2 properties until 1812 and from 1823 to 1835 to the PG Lohe . From 1862 Höfen was administered by the Nuremberg District Office . Jurisdiction has been with the Nuremberg District Court since 1880 . The financial management was taken over in 1871 by the Nuremberg Rent Office ( renamed the Nuremberg Tax Office in 1920 ). The municipality had an area of ​​8,539 km².

Only between 1810 and 1898 did Höfen have its own mayor. The associated administrative documents were lost due to the fire. In 1826 the Church of the Resurrection was built in the Fürth district, to which the Höfen community now belonged. In 1838 the community was able to build its own schoolhouse on the edge of the village.

In 1884, the Höfener laid out their own cemetery on the edge of the village at the highest point of their own area. Before that, the dead were mostly buried in the Fürth district.

On January 1, 1899, the political municipality Höfen was incorporated into Nuremberg , the western part of the municipality Höfen with the municipality Weikershof , however, came to Fürth. In 1928 the common Church of the Redeemer was completed in Leyh.
