geography
The village of Hengstfeld lies at an altitude of 450 m above sea level. NHN about two and a half kilometers east-northeast of the municipality of Wallhausen on the L 2247 from Wallhausen via Hengstfeld to Michelbach an der Lücke on the right bank of the Weidenbach, still called Brettach , and running southwards . Through the town flows into it from the west of Beundgraben , at its southern edge along the coming also from the west Balbach . From a natural perspective, the village and most of the district are located in the sub-area of Michelbach Bay of the Hohenlohe Plain , one of the bays on the edge of the Frankenhöhe , which begins to rise roughly at the border with Bavaria in the east. In the valley areas the Lettenkeuper ( Erfurt Formation ) is due, on the heights of the Gipskeuper ( Grabfeld Formation ), partly also Hohenloher flint gravel, a remnant layer left over from otherwise eroded higher Keuper rock.
The wavy-hilly district area is in the height range of about 439- 475 m above sea level. NHN ., With the exception of a few forest islands, it is mostly open and outside of the soft images of the settlements is mostly under the plow.
A very small marginal strip of the district in the north drains to the uppermost Tauber , the rest to the Weidenbach , which mostly seeps away below Wallhausen after its southern arch, or to its aboveground continuation Reinach , which ultimately feeds the Jagst via the Brettach .
The old town center stretches along Landesstraße 2247, which runs on a ridge here, from west to east, with which the K 2503 crosses in the local area, which leads from Asbach in the north to Satteldorf -Triftshausen in the south-west and its two exits from the village Main street also follow short, older street lines. At a little distance from the rest of the village, there is a newer settlement area north of the Beundgraben.
The three hamlets belong to Hengstfeld
- Asbach about a kilometer north
- Roßbürg about two kilometers north-northwest and
- Schönbronn about one and a half kilometers northeast,
measured as the crow flies from the center of Hengstfels.
history
Pre-Roman and early medieval settlement activity is documented for the Hengstfeld district . Settlement continuity cannot be proven.
Hengstfeld is first handed down as "Hengesfelt" in 1230, when the gentlemen of Hengstfeld are named in a document. From the core of the settlement at the church and the Niederadelsburg to the north of it, Hengstfeld grew as a typical row village along the through road to the west and east. Only a few houses were added to the south. The Bach, Hart and Siechheim residential areas are likely to have disappeared in the late Middle Ages .
The parish in Hengstfeld is first mentioned in 1285, and the hamlets of Asbach and Schönbronn also belonged to it. The current building of the Protestant Lambertus Church was built in 1837, only the lower part of the former choir tower has survived from the Middle Ages . In 1901 the tower was raised to its current height.
