Heilgersdorf is a district of the Upper Franconian town of Seßlach in the Coburg district .

geography

Heilgersdorf is about 15 kilometers west of Coburg on the Alster , a right tributary of the Itz . The district roads CO 6 from Rothenberg to Setzelsdorf and CO 9 from Bischwind to State Road 2204 lead through the village. The southern part of the municipality of Trammershof , a former manorial farm, has merged with Heilgersdorf. On the Rodach , about two kilometers away, lies the remote Heinersdorf , a former district.

history

The first mention of the place was in 1317 as "Helngesdorf" in a document which Albertus de Lichtenstein mentions as the recipient of half a tithe. Heilgersdorf was first mentioned in a document in 1361. In 1364 the Würzburg bishop Albrecht Heilgersdorf raised it to an independent parish with the separation from Seßlach. In the 14th century, an old chapel was replaced by a new building. In addition, a moated castle was built as a predecessor of today's castle.

While Seßlach remained Catholic, the Lords of Lichtenstein introduced the Reformation in Heilgersdorf in 1551. In the Thirty Years' War Heilgersdorf suffered destruction. The plague broke out in 1636.

Heilgersdorf Castle

Until the end of the 18th century, the imperial lords of Lichtenstein ruled the village. They were followed by those of Bibra . In the 1830s, the Count of Rottenhan became the owner of the manor.

From 1818 onwards, the manorial farms of Trammershof, Heilgersdorf Castle and Wiesen Castle as well as the sheep farm on the Scheps belonged to the political community . Then there were Setzelsdorf and Heinersdorf. In 1840 75 families lived in 64 houses in Heilgersdorf. In 1865 a new rectory was built. In 1871 32 day laborers, 31 craftsmen, 17 farmers and 11 servants worked in Heilgersdorf.

Christian Prediger founded a brewery for his inn in 1870. In 1907 Heinrich Scharpf took over the businesses that have been family-owned since then. The Scharpf brewery produces around 1000 hectoliters.

On October 1, 1913, Heilgersdorf was connected to the railway network with the Breitengüßbach – Dietersdorf railway. The passenger traffic was stopped on September 28, 1975, on September 27, 1981 the complete shutdown took place. In 1922 it was connected to the electricity network of the overland works in Upper Franconia.

In 1925 Heilgersdorf had 366 residents and 84 houses. In the community, to which the villages Heinersdorf, Setzelsdorf, Trammershof and Wiesen also belonged, 497 people lived, of whom 437 belonged to the Evangelical Lutheran Church. In the 1928 Reichstag elections , 72% of the voters voted for the NSDAP , in 1930 it was 75% and in 1932 100%. On September 25, 1932, Adolf Hitler was made an honorary citizen of the Heilgersdorf community. In the 1930s, the construction of a youth home for the Hitler Youth began . However, the building was not completed until after the Second World War . After the introduction of the new municipal code in the German Reich on April 1, 1935, Setzelsdorf was incorporated into Heilgersdorf against his will.

In 1946 the community had a population increase of 30% due to 152 displaced persons and refugees.

On July 1, 1971, Bischwind was incorporated into the community. One year later, on July 1, 1972, the Lower Franconian district of Ebern was dissolved . Heilgersdorf has been part of the Coburg district since then . In the course of the Bavarian regional reform , Heilgersdorf lost its independence as a municipality on May 1, 1978. Heilgersdorf and its districts, the Kirchdorf Bischwind, the Einöde Heinersdorf, the village Setzelsdorf and the hamlets Trammershof and Wiesen became parts of the municipality of Seßlach.

In 1987 Heilgersdorf had 433 residents and 130 houses with 152 apartments.
