Herrnsberg

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

location

The church village is located on the plateau of the southern Franconian Jura in the Altmühltal nature park at 516  m above sea level. NHN north of the municipal seat , the town of Greding, above the Agbach valley , which rises in two springs immediately east of Herrnsberg and flows south to the Altmühl.

Place name interpretation

Karl Kugler interprets the place name as "Mountains with the field stable of the Hero (nickname of Heribert)". According to another interpretation, the place name is based on the personal name “Mistress” attested in the 8th century.

history

In the “Boleitn” (= Bachleite) forest near Herrnsberg are the remains of the foundation walls of a stately medieval castle that existed in the early 15th century.

In the dispute between the Bishop of Eichstätt Johann I and the Bavarian dukes Rudolf and Ludwig over the inheritance of the Counts of Hirschberg in 1305, “Herrensperch” with people, goods and courts was awarded to the bishop. In 1323 the first pastor of Burggriesbach , named Steinhauser, sold his estate in Herrnsberg to the servant of Plankstetten . In 1383 Berta von Stein compared herself with the Eichstätter cathedral chapter because of the tithe in Herrnsberg among others; In 1398, Sweiker von Gundelfingen sold the tithe to the Eichstätter Bishop Friedrich IV. Count von Oettingen . In 1394 Konrad Reiter von Herrnsberg donated a weekly Saturday mass at St. Jakob in Greding . 1419 was the Leonhard Absberger on Castle Rumburk with Tafern - (fully licensed) and Kirchtag rights (Markets) in Skirts Hofen and Herrnsberg as well as the blacksmith instead of Herrnsberg invested ; the heirs of Erasmus Absberger still owned the fiefs in 1555. In 1447 Herrnsberg and Röckenhofen are recorded in the ointment book of the high judiciary in Greding and in the interest book of the episcopal superior office in Hirschberg . The Salbuch of the Jettenhofen rule from 1491 lists fiefs and those liable for interest in Herrnsberg and Röckenhofen, among others. The Eichstätter Hofmeister Hieronymus von Rosenberg , who died in 1507 and who sat at Jettenhofen Castle, bequeathed "a lot of interest" to the bishopric in Greding, Herrnsberg and Röckenhofen, so he was wealthy there. In 1520, the Eichstätter Bishop Gabriel von Eyb acquired goods and people from Hans Roßthalers zu Staufersbuch in Herrnsberg and Röckenhofen with the bailiwick and court. In 1595 16 houses and the church of the village burned down; the church was rebuilt by the prince-bishop judge in Greding.

At the end of the Old Kingdom , Herrnsberg consisted of 32 subject properties and a church as a branch of Greding; Most of the properties, 21, belonged to the high estates judiciary in Greding, six properties to the high estates 'office of Jettenhofen , one property to the provost's office in Berching , a half courtyard and a courtyard belonging to the Eichstätt hospital (subordinate to the judges' office in Greding), one courtyard to the hospital ( Hospitium) Berching (also subordinate to the judge's office in Greding for judicial and tax purposes), finally a Gütl to the caste office of Hilpoltstein . The high judiciary and the rule of the village and community were rights of the judiciary in Greding.

After the bishopric of Eichstätt was dissolved in the course of secularization in Bavaria , the municipality of Herrnsberg, which consisted only of the town of Herrnsberg, with the former bishopric came to Grand Duke Archduke Ferdinand III in 1802 . from Tuscany and 1806 to the new Kingdom of Bavaria and there to the regional court of Beilngries . Here Herrnsberg was assigned to the Röckenhofen tax district in 1809 , which in 1811 became the Röckenhofen rural community . With the municipal edict of 1818, Herrnsberg was detached from the municipality of Röckenhofen and again formed its own municipality in the district court of Beilngries, from 1857 in the nearby district court of Greding .

In 1846 Herrnsberg consisted of 43 houses with just as many families with a total of 170 "souls". In addition to the farmers, an innkeeper, a blacksmith and a cobbler worked in the village. In 1875 there were 20 horses, 171 beef cattle, 123 sheep and 77 pigs among 186 residents. Around this time the children went to the Catholic school in Greding.

As part of the regional reform in Bavaria , Herrnsberg joined the city of Greding on January 1, 1972.

Water supply

The water supply in the Jura and especially on the Alb plateau was problematic for centuries. In Herrnsberg, the water for the cattle was obtained from cisterns in which the rainwater was collected from the roofs. In addition, there were “shells” that collected the surface water. The drinking water for the villagers and the small cattle was fetched from the Agbach valley by means of tubs and barrels. In 1869 a central water supply was built for the village; the water reserve was fed from the Agbach spring by means of a hydraulic ram from 1880 onwards . From 1926 onwards, the water was supplied to the village through two contained springs in the "Brunnenberg" corridor with elevated tanks and pipelines. The ram was replaced in 1941 by a diesel engine in the pump house at the Agbach spring. After the village was connected to the power grid in 1942, an electric pump was installed in the pump house. In 1980 the village gave up its own water supply and joined the “Jura-Schwarzach-Thalach Group” on November 17th.

Filial church of St. Pankratius

Field chapel

Catholic branch church of St. Pankratius

A church is mentioned for Herrnsberg around 1355. In 1598 the church was rebuilt according to the coat of arms stone, which is walled in below the clock tower from 1986; the ship has the dimensions 14.9 × 7.3 meters. The basement of the tower (with a gable roof and stepped gables) is Gothic. In 1839 the late Gothic crescent moon Madonna (around 1470) acquired by a Herrnsberg farmer from the Protestant church of Schwimbach was placed on the left side altar. In 1900 the tower received a new bell, cast by Kopfmüller in Eichstätt. In 1938 there was a 6-register organ from Steinmeyer in Öttingen in the church. In 1922/23 Herrnsberg and Röckenhofen became the parish of Röckenhofen from Greding and has been a branch of Röckenhofen ever since. She has her own cemetery. The teacher von Röckenhofen acted as organist around 1937, while a local farmer performed the sacristan service against the use of the "sacristan fields".

In 1727 a field chapel was built, which was rebuilt in 1909 by Josef Glaßner and stands on the southern edge of the village.
