history

middle Ages

Hüttelngesäß belonged to the Somborn court , which in turn was part of the Alzenau free court . This was directly imperial , but the empire pledged or forgave the area again and again. So the rulers changed, including the lords and later counts of Hanau , the lords of Randenburg , the lords of Eppstein and Kurmainz .

Modern times

In 1500 the elector-archbishop of Mainz and the counts of Hanau-Münzenberg received the free court and thus also Hüttelngesäß jointly as a fief . It was now ruled as a condominate . Since ecclesiastical jurisdiction remained with the Archbishops of Mainz at the time of the condominium , the Reformation - in contrast to the County of Hanau-Münzenberg - could not prevail here. Hüttelngesäß remained Roman Catholic .

In 1740, the condominium was dissolved in a real division with a contract, the "partification recess". The court of Somborn and thus also Hüttelngesäß fell to the Landgraviate of Hessen-Kassel , which had inherited the Counts of Hanau in 1736. The village was assigned to their office in Altenhaßlau .

The Hüttelngesäß forest farm and the adjacent ruins have been owned by the von Savigny family since 1754.

In 1803 the Landgraviate of Hesse-Kassel was elevated to the status of the Electorate of Hesse . During the Napoleonic period, the Altenhaßlau office was initially under French military administration from 1806, from 1807 to 1810 it belonged to the Principality of Hanau and from 1810 to 1813 to the Grand Duchy of Frankfurt , Department of Hanau . Then it fell back to the Electorate of Hesse. After the administrative reform of the Electorate of Hesse in 1821, by which the Electorate of Hesse was divided into 4 provinces and 22 districts, the Altenhaßlau office was added to the newly formed Gelnhausen district . With the annexation of Kurhessen by the Kingdom of Prussia after the lost war of 1866 , Hüttelngesäß also became Prussian. Hüttelngesäß was added to Neuses .

For January 1, 1970 Neuses was in the course of administrative reform in Hesse on a voluntary basis with other communities to the new community Freigericht together . In 1974 the Gelnhausen district became part of the Main-Kinzig district.

Before the settlement was converted into a residential complex in 2001, Hüttelngesäß only consisted of a forest yard and the ruins of a moated castle .
