history

1196 is the first documentary mention as Harleve in a directory of the Hardehausen monastery . 1253 the place is mentioned in a list of goods of the monastery Breitenau as Harlon . In 1266 there is a report of a dispute between the noble masters Hund and the Haina monastery . In 1336 an Eberhard Rabodonis confessed that he had received goods in Harle from the convent of the Breitenau monastery for life. From 1358 Harle was a landgrave's village. 1404 the place is called Horlan . The dominant landowners in the place were the Lords of Falkenberg . In 1555 the place is mentioned in a Salbuch of the office Felsberg as Harle.

Teachers have been recorded in the village since 1657, and the first school was built in 1728; it still serves as a residential building today. A new school was built in 1892 and used as such until the end of school operations in the village on August 1, 1970; the house is now used by the parish.

In 1910 Harle received a water pipe and in 1919 electricity. Austrian pioneers straightened the Schwalm in 1937 and built a wooden bridge over the river.

Mary and Carl Achenbach often came to Harle for artistic work since the 1920s.

On January 1, 1974, the previously independent municipality Harle was in the course of administrative reform in Hesse powerful state law in the community Wabern incorporated .

church

Harle Church

Probably already used the chat the basalt rock on which the church is built Harler than worship. It may be a Germanic solar sanctuary dedicated to the Germanic god Odin . The church faces the Heiligenberg near Gensungen , 6 km away . Seen from the viewpoint of the church, on the day of the summer solstice the sun rises up on the Heiligenberg as if on a ramp.

The foundation stone for the nave was laid on June 5, 1492 ( Boniface Day), and it is also dedicated to Boniface. However, there are clear indications of a previous church in the same place, which is suggested by finds during renovations. The origin of the first church is dated to 1200-1250. A pleban is mentioned in the registers of Hasungen Monastery in 1266 .

The 40 meter high tower could have been built around 1388. An examination of old pieces of wood built into the tower suggests this origin, or at least a conversion or renovation. The remains of a defensive wall, narrow windows in the tower and the only access to the tower, which is still in the church today, prove that it is a fortified church .
