history

On December 26, 1209 the village was first mentioned in a document. The name of the village is said to have been derived from Hirsch . The Lords of Herressen were the owners of the village and servants of the Knights of Kirchberg near Jena , who later became Knights of Apolda.

The place belonged to the monastery Heusdorf , whose property was combined in the course of the Reformation in 1536 in the lordly office of Heusdorf . After the dissolution of the office in 1818, the place came to the office Roßla and in 1850 to the administrative district Weimar II ( administrative district Apolda ) of the Grand Duchy of Saxony-Weimar-Eisenach .

The town's church dates from 1629. It was rebuilt and renovated in 1772 and 1778. The mill was named in 1557, and a brewery existed until the 20th century . In the 1980s, the restoration consultant was Horst Jahresling .

On July 1, 1950, Sulzbach was incorporated into Herressen, and in the early 1990s it was renamed Heressen-Sulzbach through a referendum. On May 6, 1993 the community became a district of Apolda.
