history

The Gender those of Hatzfeld is to 1138 as de Hepisvelt first mentioned. Like the neighboring Counts of Battenberg, it was predominantly involved in the Hessian- Mainz disputes during the high and late Middle Ages as a Mainz party member . In 1282 his (now largely dilapidated) castle Hatzfeld is mentioned, at the foot of which a town was built from 1340. After the Hessian line of von Hatzfeld had died out, the town and rule fell half in 1570, and finally in 1588 and 1772, respectively, entirely to the House of Hesse , to which the von Hatzfeld family had given their castle as fief in 1311 .

The statistical-topographical-historical description of the Grand Duchy of Hesse reports on Hatzfeld in 1830:

“Hatzfeld (L. Bez. Battenberg) city; is on the Eder, 2 St von Battenberg, has with the farms Lindenhof, Rödchen, Schaafhort, Elsoff Ebenfeld and Biebighausen, 140 houses and 946 inhabitants, who are Protestant except for 1 Catholics. There are 2 churches, the ruins of the Hatzfeld Castle, 1 town hall, 1 iron hammer, 1 paper mill and on the Edenberg still the remains of an old tunnel. The ruins of Hatzfeld Castle, ancestral home of the still flourishing von Hatzfeld family, are located in Hess in 1351. (1039 par.) Feet above sea level. The iron hammer, which is stately, is located on the Eder 1 ⁄ 2 hour below Hatzfeld, has 2 fires and gets the pig iron from the Ludwigshütte 2 hours away. 3 markets are held annually. - The place appears in earlier times under the name Hatisfeld , also Hapisfeld . The Hatzfeld Castle has given its name to a famous noble family, later counts and princely families. Gottfried and Kraft von Hatzfeld entrusted the castle to Landgrave Otto in 1311, and from that time on they were enfeoffed by Hesse, just as in 1333 Johannes and Guntram von Hatzfeld allowed the Mainz Archbishopric to open their castle. Emperor Ludwig (von Baiern) allowed this family, in 1340, to turn their fortress Hatzfeld into a city, and gave this city all the rights of the city of Frankfurt. "

In 1866 Hatzfeld came to Prussia as part of the Hesse-Darmstadt hinterland and lost its town charter in 1885 according to Prussian law . After the dissolution of Prussia, Hatzfeld regained the designation "city": In November 1950, the Hatzfeld municipality was granted the right to use the designation "city" by the Hessian State Ministry.

Culture and sights

City Church of St. John

The Evangelical Lutheran town church St. Johannes is a slab of half-timbered building from the 14th century. The exact year of construction is not known, but the Emmaus Chapel is referred to as the "old" church in a document from 1379, so that the new St. John's Church must have already existed at this time. It was built by the noble family of the “von Hatzfeldt” in the style of a Gothic half-timbered church halfway up the castle hill in the “valley settlement”, which has been granted city rights since 1340. In the choir, hanging above the altar, there is a late Gothic crucifix from the 15th century. It is the second oldest church in town.

Emmaus Chapel

The Emmaus Chapel in Hatzfeld (Eder) is the oldest of the three Hatzfeld churches. Built in the 12th century as a three-aisled late Romanesque pillar basilica with a defensive west tower, it was consecrated to Saint Cyriacus. It belonged to the fortified "Great Court of Nieder-Hatzfeld" - until the castle was built in the late 12th century, this was the ancestral seat of the Lords of Hatzfeld. With the construction of the walled city in the middle of the 14th century, the settlement at this point became extinct. Since then, the chapel has been used as a burial church for the citizens of Hatzfeld. The Hatzfeld organ builder Johann Christian Rindt created an organ with seven registers for the town church in 1706, which was transferred to the Emmaus Chapel in 1868. The important instrument is one of the oldest organs in Hessen.

Catholic Church of St. Hubertus

On the Rath, a rocky outcrop above the Edertal, a small chapel was built in 1898 by Alfred Graf Korff called Schmissing-Kerrsenbrock, Royal Prussian chief forester in Hatzfeld. The passionate hunter named her after St. Hubertus; There is a mighty deer antler above the entrance. After completion, it served as a place of worship for him and his family. The count died in 1936 and was buried in the Hubertus chapel. In addition to the count, two of his children were also buried here.

The count's granddaughter donated the chapel to the Catholic parish in the 1950s, which had it expanded and rebuilt.
