history

Until the church is planted

In the 8th century, the Franconian landlord Hahold founded the place "Haholdesbrunn". According to legend, he had suffered a hunting accident and wandered injured through the forest until he found a spring on the site of the place he subsequently founded, drank from it and recovered. Later the Counts of Abenberg and Knights of Heideck built a chapel. In 1132, Rapoto von Abenberg, with the support of Otto von Bamberg, founded the Cistercian monastery in Heilsbronn as a subsidiary of Ebrach monastery . During this time the colloquial toponym changed from "Haholdesbrunn" and "Haholtisbrunne" (1142) to "Halsbrunn" and at the time of the Cistercian monastery, which existed until 1578, to the Latin Fons salutis (= "fountain of salvation"). The minster of the monastery was the burial place of the Franconian Hohenzollern between 1297 and 1625 . In the middle of the 13th century the monastery was initially under imperial protection, then the Franconian Hohenzollern and Margraves of Ansbach took over the patronage.

In the 17th century, the governor of Neustadt an der Aisch had a certain right of supervision over the Heilsbronn administration (as a monastery office or caste office) .

At the end of the 18th century there were 102 properties in Heilsbronn. The high court was exercised by the Brandenburg-Ansbach caste and city bailiff's office in Windsbach , while the monastery administration office in Heilsbronn held the village and community rulership. All properties had the Heilsbronn monastery administration office as landlord. In addition to the households, there were also ecclesiastical buildings (parish church, rectory, sacristan's house), communal buildings (schoolhouse, shepherd's house, old bath house) and stately buildings (caste master's apartment, office building, etc.).

From 1791 Heilsbronn belonged to the Kingdom of Prussia and often hosted the German Emperor, who gave the Heilsbronn monastery areas such as vineyards in the Main Spessart as thanks. From 1797 to 1808 the place was under the Justice and Chamber Office Windsbach . At that time there were 80 subject families.

19th to 21st century

Heilsbronn has been part of the Kingdom of Bavaria since 1806 .

As part of the municipal edict, the Heilsbronn tax district was formed in 1808 , to which Berghof, Heilsbronn, Schönbühl and Ziegelhütte belonged. The municipality of Heilsbronn was founded in 1810 and was congruent with the tax district. It was subject to the Heilsbronn Regional Court in administration and jurisdiction and the Windsbach Rent Office in the financial administration . From 1862 to 1879 Heilsbronn was administered by the Heilsbronn District Office , since 1880 by the Ansbach District Office (renamed the Ansbach District in 1938 ) and the Heilsbronn Rent Office (1920–1929: Heilsbronn Tax Office , from 1929: Ansbach Tax Office ). The jurisdiction remained with the district court Heilsbronn until 1879, 1880–1956 district court Heilsbronn , since 1956 district court Ansbach .

The main stages of development were the Nuremberg - Heilsbronn - Ansbach railway line, which was newly opened in 1875, as well as the city elevation for the 800th anniversary celebration in 1932 and the incorporation of 16 surrounding villages as part of the municipal reform of 1972/1978 . In 1961 the municipality of Heilsbronn had an area of ​​3,679 km².

badges and flags

The municipality of Heilsbronn has had its own coat of arms and flag since 1894.

Heilsbronn coat of arms
 Blazon : “Split between gold and red; in front a sloping beam in two rows of red and silver, behind a golden three-bowl fountain; a golden heart on the split line below. "

White and red municipal flag

Justification of the coat of arms: The fountain in the community coat of arms comes from the monastery coat of arms from 1525 and stands for the monastery and place name, which was originally derived from the personal name Hahold and was reinterpreted as the "fountain of salvation" after the monastery was founded. The Cistercian bar from the order's coat of arms appears in the split shield . The meaning of the heart is not clear, it appears for the first time in a monastery seal from the late 17th century.
