Heimbach is a district of the town of Greding in the Middle Franconian district of Roth in Bavaria .

location

The parish village is located southwest of Greding mainly on the southern slope of the Heimbach valley . The place is framed by the wooded mountains of the southern Franconian Jura : in the southwest towards the Euerwanger Bühl lies the Herrenkamm, in the east the Pfaffenberg with the Liebeneck castle ruins and in the north the Gredinger Berg. Felix Mader describes Heimbach as "idyllically situated in an unfamiliar forest valley."

Place name interpretation

According to the oldest spelling (1239), the place name is interpreted as the settlement of a "Huwo" on a body of water. The spelling “Haimbach” lasted until the 19th century.

history

At least 13 prehistoric burial mounds are located 700 meters north of Heimbacher Church .

According to a document from 1239, the Augustinian Canons Rebdorf in "Huiwenbach" was wealthy. 1305 "Heunpach" was in the discussion of the Bavarian dukes and Eichstätter bishop to the " Hirschberger heritage " the Bishopric awarded Eichstaett. In 1308 a church was consecrated; The patronage was exchanged in 1313 by the provost of Rebdorf for the bishop. In 1363 Ulrich von Morsbach made a donation to (Krafts-) Buch for the parish "which, because of its poverty, is unable to support a pastor" . In 1372 Hilpolt von Stein confirmed that his father had donated a meadow in Heimbach to the parish; he also makes a foundation himself. In 1456 one learns that the "Widmann" (= Widdumsbauer ) of the Rebdorf monastery in Heimbach was called Michael Weeber and received the big and small tithe , as well as a desolate farmstead belonging to the Widdum (house no. 8) and some fields, meadows and Groves; The monastery reserved fiefdom for inheritance and purchase cases . Among other things, he and the subsequent ram owners had to fulfill the duties of sacristan . After the turmoil and destruction of the Thirty Years War , Heimbach was given its own pastor again in 1661 and in 1667 repaired the rectory. On April 12, 1723, at midnight, a “terrible” conflagration broke out. As a result of the prayers of the local priest and the villagers to St. Walburga , contrary to expectations, "not a single further damage" occurred.

Towards the end of the Old Kingdom , around 1800, Heimbach consisted of 13 properties in addition to the church, the rectory and a mill, all of which belonged to the episcopal judicial office of Greding, which also exercised high jurisdiction and rule over the village and the community.

As a result of the Reichsdeputationshauptschluss , the Eichstätt bishopric and thus also the parish village Heimbach came to the Grand Duke Archduke Ferdinand III in 1802 . from Tuscany and 1805/06 to the new Kingdom of Bavaria . In 1808 the tax district Euerwang was formed from Euerwang and Heimbach , which in 1811 became a rural community . With the parish edict of 1818, both places became independent parishes again, until they were again merged into the parish of Euerwang on April 14, 1830. Initially, this community was assigned to the Kipfenberg Regional Court and Rent Office , and from October 1, 1857 to the nearby Greding Regional Court and Rent Office.

In 1846 there were 15 houses out of 75 “souls” in the parish village. In addition to the farmers, a landlord, a tailor and a miller worked here. In 1871, the now 70 villagers kept seven horses and 74 head of cattle. The children went to the Catholic school in Euerwang. In 1911 the village joined the "Euerwanger Water Group" to provide drinking water. In the 1920s, at the so-called Lichtweiher, about one kilometer east of Heimbach, a native Heimbach electrical engineer generated electricity with a small hydroelectric power station, thus supplying the village with electric light. In 1963, the village's Raiffeisenbank merged with that of the city of Greding.

The municipality of Euerwang and thus Heimbach was incorporated into the city of Greding on January 1, 1972 as part of the municipal reform. After the Second World War , the population was 90 for a short time due to the influx of refugees and displaced persons. In 2014, this number was more than halved to 41.

Catholic parish church " Pauli Conversion "

The church on a hill in the middle of the village was consecrated in 1308 under Prince-Bishop Philipp von Rathsamhausen . In 1441 unspecified construction work was carried out on the church. According to an inscription on the sacrament niche , it dates from 1493. Two figures have survived from the late Gothic period. A statue of Mary dates from 1630. In 1718 the church, tower and cemetery wall were repaired. The transition to the baroque renovation, which took place in 1744, dates from 1736; the tower was raised by an octagonal tower with a pointed helmet and a new roof structure was placed on the nave. In 1895 a new 8-register organ from the Steinmeyer company in Oettingen came into the church. In 1902 the ship was lengthened by four meters to 16.3 × 7.4 meters, and the entrance was moved from the north to the west side. The furnishings are baroque , the stucco pulpit was made by Franz Horneis . In 1921 the tower was refurbished with a steel bell made by three bells from the Ulrich company in Apolda ; a bell from 1871 remained in the tower. During the Second World War, bells had to be delivered for raw material extraction. In 2013 the interior and the roof structure were renovated. The 2006 war memorial was designed by the Eichstatt sculptor Rupert Fieger .

In 1871 the Heimbach sexton Josef Hummel built a chapel on the forest path to Kinding , which he furnished in 1872 with a figure of the Scourge Christ from Oberammergau . The spring water that escaped here until the land consolidation in 1972 is said to have had a healing effect on eye problems. At the edge of the forest near Heimbach there was a "very old" Assumption Chapel in 1937, today's chapel shrine "Mariä Krönung".
