history
middle Ages
Hördt was bought in 1332 by the Lords of Lichtenberg from the successors of the landgraves in Alsace and assigned to the Brumath office. It was a fiefdom of the Bishop of Strasbourg . The first lending took place in 1364, initially together with those of Geroldseck , after their extinction alone to Lichtenberg.
Anna von Lichtenberg (* 1442; † 1474), one of Ludwig V's two heirs, married Count Philip I the Elder of Hanau-Babenhausen (* 1417; † 1480) in 1458, who had a small secondary school from the County of Hanau had received in order to be able to marry her. The county of Hanau-Lichtenberg came into being through the marriage . After the death of the last Lichtenberger, Count Jakob, one of Anna's uncle, Philip I d. Ä. In 1480 half of the Lichtenberg rule, the other half went to his brother-in-law, Simon IV. Wecker von Zweibrücken-Bitsch . The Brumath office was initially a condominium between Hanau-Lichtenberg and Zweibrücken-Bitsch. Under the government of Count Philip III. From Hanau-Lichtenberg there was then a real division: The Brumath office came entirely to Zweibrücken-Bitsch. In contrast, the Willstätt office , which also came from the Lichtenberg legacy and was a condominium between the two houses, was transferred entirely to the County of Hanau-Lichtenberg.
Modern times
However, there was another inheritance in 1570, which also brought the office of Brumath and thus the village of Hördt to the County of Hanau-Lichtenberg: Count Jakob von Zweibrücken-Bitsch (* 1510; † 1570) and his brother Simon V. Wecker , who had died in 1540, left behind only one daughter each as heiress. Count Jakob's daughter, Margarethe (* 1540; † 1569), was married to Philipp V von Hanau-Lichtenberg (* 1541; † 1599). The legacy resulting from this constellation also included the second half of the former rule of Lichtenberg, which was not already ruled by Hanau-Lichtenberg, and included the office of Brumath with Hördt. In 1570, the ruling Count of Hanau-Lichtenberg carried out the Reformation in Hördt in the Lutheran version.
Due to France's reunification policy , the Amt of Brumath and the village of Hördt also fell under French suzerainty in 1680.
1736 died with Count Johann Reinhard III. the last male representative of the Hanau family. Due to the marriage of his only daughter, Charlotte (* 1700; † 1726), with the Hereditary Prince Ludwig (VIII.) (* 1691; † 1768) of Hesse-Darmstadt , he inherited the county of Hanau-Lichtenberg. In the course of the French Revolution , the left bank of the Hanau-Lichtenberg county - and with it Hördt - fell to France.
