history
Harthausen was in 9./10. Founded in the 19th century by the Franks and first mentioned in 1230 under the name Hardhusen . The current spelling has existed since the 16th century.
In 1065 Harthausen came under the sovereignty of the Speyer bishopric , which had jurisdiction since 974. In 1232 the Heilsbruck monastery was established here , confirmed in the same year by the Speyer bishop Beringer von Entringen . Due to the poor location, however, it moved to what is now Edenkoben in 1262 . In 1235 the place was transferred to the St. German-Stift , which exercised feudal and tithe rights until 1797, although the sovereignty of the Speyer bishops was preserved. From around 1475 Harthausen was administered by the high-level sub-office Marientraut in Hanhofen and from 1772 from the office of Deidesheim .
From 1801 to 1809 the later cathedral capitular Franz Christoph Günther (1770–1848) worked as pastor of Harthausen. He was the son of the baroque sculptor Joachim Günther and the nephew of the famous baroque painter Matthäus Günther . His two brothers Tobias and Johann Adam Günther were also active as artists and according to the parish memorial book, Pastor Franz Christoph Günther had them make new altars for the parish church. Of these "Günther altars" from the old church, which was demolished in 1871, only one crucifixion group in the field chapel on Hanhofer Str. Has survived.
In 1794 the region was occupied by French revolutionary troops, from 1798 to 1814 Harthausen belonged to the French canton of Speyer in the Donnersberg department and was subordinate to the Mairie Heiligenstein . In 1816 the Palatinate, including Harthausen, was ceded by Austria to the Kingdom of Bavaria . Under the Bavarian administrative Harthausen belonged from 1817 to the country's Commissariat Speyer , from 1862 the district office Speyer and 1939 the district Speyer was born.
From 1939 the place was part of the district of Speyer . After the Second World War , Harthausen became part of the then newly formed state of Rhineland-Palatinate within the French occupation zone . In the course of the first Rhineland-Palatinate administrative reform , the place moved to the district of Ludwigshafen am Rhein , which has been called Rhein-Pfalz-Kreis since 2004 .

Gas explosion at Hoffmann Gastrans
On Saturday, September 28, 2013, two trucks standing apart from each other burned on the premises of the Hoffmann Gastrans company, which sold liquid gas. During the extinguishing work by the fire brigade, which was notified at around 4:20 a.m., the fire spread to a gas tank, which exploded shortly after 5 a.m. 17 members of the fire brigade were injured, three of them seriously. The debris spread within a radius of several hundred meters. The gas tank flew over 400 meters through the air and smashed through the roof of a warehouse. Another tank was thrown over the adjacent road to Hanhofen into an adjacent field. The bang could be heard within a radius of 25 km. Other explosions also affected nearby buildings. Since there was a risk of further gas tanks exploding due to the fire, the location was evacuated from 9 a.m. all 3,000 residents had to leave their houses and apartments. To prevent the tanks from exploding, they were burned down in a controlled manner by the BASF works fire brigade and cooled at the same time. A total of 450 emergency services were involved in the action. After the Rhineland-Palatinate Transport Minister Roger Lewentz had already visited the site of the accident on Saturday and got a picture from the air, Prime Minister Malu Dreyer visited the place on Sunday. The evacuation from Harthausen was lifted on September 29 at around 1.30 p.m. On December 11, 2013, two arson suspects were arrested. Those arrested are the 40-year-old ex-boyfriend of the gas trader's daughter, with whom he also had business relations, and the ex-boyfriend's 27-year-old girlfriend. While the 27-year-old made an extensive confession before the Frankenthal Regional Court before the trial that began on September 10, 2014, the 40-year-old main perpetrator, who had already threatened the owner of the company several times prior to the act and also in April 2013 in Franconia, was silent Burgbernheim had set a truck of the daughter on fire, so far to the allegations. On December 3, 2014, the main perpetrator was sentenced to 12 years in prison and his ex-girlfriend was sentenced to 3 years and 6 months.

Population development
The development of the formerly typical street village progressed slowly until the beginning of the 19th century. Harthausen had around 400 inhabitants in 1511, but in 1667 it was only 109 due to the Thirty Years' War and the year of the plague in 1666. Around 1700 there were around 250 inhabitants, in 1801 551 were counted. The original town center was Speyerer Straße, the development of which up until the 17th century in an easterly direction probably did not extend beyond the former location of the town hall at the junction with Rappengasse. The first exact plan is the cadastral plan from 1820, which shows the expansion of the buildings on Speyerer Straße to the east, Rappengasse and Zwerchgasse. Since that time the population has increased continuously.

Blazon : "In a divided shield above in black two growing, facing each other red-armored and tongued golden lions, holding a millstone covered with black iron in their front paws, below divided by silver and blue, in it a lily in confused colors." |

Justification for the coat of arms: It was approved by the Rhineland-Palatinate Ministry of the Interior in 1951 . Previously, since 1845, the coat of arms had only shown the two Electoral Palatinate lions, which had been on the court seal since the 17th century. Since the place belonged to the Hochstift Speyer for a long time, its colors silver and blue were added.
