Hagen is a desert in the south of the district of Dörnhagen , the administrative seat of the municipality of Fuldabrück in the northern Hessian district of Kassel .

Geographical location

The place was located at about 230 m above sea level on the western slope of the Söhre , about 1.5 km southeast of Dörnhagen and 300 m north of Wollrode at the source of a stream that drained west to the Schwarzenbach.

history

The place was first mentioned in 1155 as "Hagon", when the nearby Breitenau monastery was given property there, and appears in documents from later years as "Indago" (Latin = defensive, 1289), "Hagin" (1362) and "Hayn" (1380). In 1289 it is referred to as a "villa" and at the same time a "Pleban de Indagine" is mentioned. Otherwise it hardly receives any attention in historical sources. Although, according to Georg Landau, the Lords of Meysenbug resident in Züschen had landgrave Hessian fiefs "to the Hayne" in the 14th century , but this is more likely to be the deserted Hayn on the Johanneskirchenkopf near Züschen. The place was mentioned for the last time in a Breitenau monastery account from 1460, whereby Hagen was counted as part of Dörnhagen and was therefore probably already abandoned as a settlement.

Place name

The place name is rooted in the old name Hag for an area mostly enclosed or fenced in by a hedge . Hagen and its variations are widespread as a place name or part of a place name, so that speculations about the geographical allocation of families with this name - such as B. the von Hain family (de Indagine) mentioned in documents of the monasteries Hasungen and Haina from 1241–1306 - are very daring without further information.
