geography
Hassel covers an area of 9.26 km², 55.6% of which is occupied by forest and 28% by agriculture and is about ten kilometers from the Saar state capital, Saarbrücken . Hassel belongs to the Bliesgau biosphere reserve and is surrounded by an extensive forest area ( Sankt Ingbert-Kirkeler forest area ) with the Griesweiher and the Geißbachtal with the saw antlers . The settlement area of Hassel is drained by the Stockweiherbach . Shortly before its confluence with the Würzbach, the Stockweiherbach flows through the Griesweiher.
The courtyards Geistkircherhof , Hofgut Hochscheid , Rittershof I and Rittershof II as well as Triebscheiderhof belong to Hassel .
traffic
Hassel is connected to the federal motorway 6 at the St. Ingbert Mitte junction .
In 1866 Hassel was connected to the railway network with the opening of the Würzbachbahn Schwarzenacker –Hassel; a year later, the line was tied through to St. Ingbert. The Hassel railway tunnel was crossed between Hassel and St. Ingbert . In 1895 it was re-routed between Würzbach and St. Ingbert via Rohrbach. This gave Hassel a new train station, which is located on what is now the Landau – Rohrbach railway line .
Since 2003, the city bus connects Ingo the Saar-Mobile Hassel to the surrounding suburbs.
history
Hassel was first mentioned in 1230 in a document from the Cistercian monastery of Wörschweiler .
Hassel was formerly part of the Kirkel Office in Pfalz-Zweibrücken . The noblemen Schorr owned goods at Hassel, acquired the name “von Hasel” and in 1720 they became a baron under the name “von Schorrenburg”. In 1771 the widowed wife von Schorrenburg sold the village of Hassel to the Nassau-Saarbrück councilor Georg Andreas Dern. In 1778, Duke Karl II. Hassel gave his minister Freiherr Ludwig von Esebeck a fief with the five farms Alten-, Julianentaler-, Christianentaler-, Fronsbacher- and Mühlenhof . "In 1809 Hassel had 61 households (not including the associated farms)." As a result of the Congress of Vienna , Hassel and neighboring St. Ingbert became part of the Kingdom of Bavaria in 1816 . As a result of the First World War and the Peace Treaty of Versailles , Hassel belonged to the Saar area since 1920 .
In the Second World War, the former community of Hassel - in contrast to St. Ingbert - belonged to the " Red Zone " between the French border and the Siegfried Line . When war broke out in 1939, the Hasselers had to leave their homeland and were evacuated "into the Reich". Thuringia, Upper and Lower Franconia were the most important evacuation areas. The Hasselers were only able to return to their homeland in the summer of 1940. For the second time, many Hasselers left their homeland when American troops approached from France in autumn 1944. Many did not return until months after the end of the war.
On January 1, 1974, the previously independent municipality of Hassel was incorporated into the city of St. Ingbert with four other municipalities as part of the Saarland regional and administrative reform.
Historic Buildings
The manor house of the Triebscheider Hof is the remainder of an 18th century complex. The property, which is still used for agriculture today, is located between Hassel and Niederwürzbach. The Gut Ettental ensemble with a manor house, living quarters and stables from the 18th – 20th centuries is located in Hassel, but near the hamlet of Rittersmühle . Century.
There are only traces of the little hunting lodge that Baron von Esebeck had built in a forest valley ( Schlossdell ). It was destroyed by French revolutionary troops. The old wash house in Unnerdorf (similar to the preserved wash house in Oberwürzbach ) fell victim to the construction of a Kneipp basin .
schools
In 1809 there was a school in Hassel for all three denominations (Catholics, Reformed, Lutherans) together. The school also had 1 garden, 8 acres of arable land and 1 acre of meadow. Since Hassel was subject to Zweibrücken law, the teacher had to be reformed, but "faithfully teach the children according to their religious principles" in their respective religion. There were several school buildings in Hassel, some of which have survived. A school building that fell victim to the war in 1945 stood on the market square. In Lindenstrasse (previously Hauptstrasse) there were two school buildings, one of which was used as a residential building until 2015, but was demolished at the end of 2015. In the place of the other is the branch of the Kreissparkasse. Where the town hall stands today, there used to be a school building. The former Eisenbergschule I (inaugurated in 1951) was sold to a company that organizes seminars and training courses. Only the Eisenbergschule II still houses the elementary school today.
Westwall bunker
Some Siegfried Line bunkers were built in Hassel and the surrounding area. Some have been preserved and can still be seen today, some of them overbuilt, such as in St. Ingberter Straße. Others were blown up after the Second World War, and some of the ruins were removed. The ruins can still be seen near the Geistkircherhof .
Surname
The pronunciation of the name "Hassel" has a peculiarity. Contrary to the spelling with two "s", which usually means a pronunciation with a short "a", the place name is actually pronounced as "Hasel", ie with a long "a". The fact that this pronunciation is historically original can easily be demonstrated on old maps.
Tilemann Stella’s map from 1564 shows “Hasel” as the place name. Likewise, Schmitt's map of southwest Germany from 1797, the original of which is in the Vienna War Archives . The spelling “Hassel” can be found for the first time on the “Maps of the Canton Bliescastel” published by Franz J. Much in 1804/05. It is the French notation in which the consonants are doubled after a long vowel . Something similar can be found with place names in Lorraine (Waldwiese - Waldwisse) and Alsace (Reichshofen - Reichshoffen, Oberhofen - Oberhoffen). The map of the Rhineland (Feuille 14 "Deux Ponts") by Jean Joseph Tranchot (1840), also a French map, also writes "Hassel". In contrast, the map of the Royal Bavarian General Staff from 1863 (on a scale of 1: 25,000) retains the spelling “Hasel”. It was not until the “Topographical Atlas of Bavaria”, sheet 108 (Zweibrücken West) from 1867 that “Hassel” was the first German map to be written.
Churches
In Hassel there is the Evangelical Church of Hassel and the Catholic Church of the Sacred Heart of Jesus .
