Moated castle

In the Middle Ages there was a so-called moated castle in the southern part of the village . In 1525 this Heuchelheim castle was destroyed in the Peasants' War. In 1691, Hyronimus Christof Freiherr von Pölnitz bought from the Würzburg monastery, among other things, the place where the Heuchelheimer Schloss (moated castle) had stood. According to local stories, it was still possible to go tobogganing on the hill with the remains of the castle around 1900 (Fl.Nr 13), today this place is still called the castle meadow. The road across the Reiche Ebrach, which connects the two districts, was probably filled up with the demolition material from the former castle. The resulting road embankment was thus secured against flooding.

Dissolution of the community

In 1966 the last election of a local council for the community Heuchelheim with the districts Rambach and Debersdorf took place. The last first mayor was Hans Engert. In 1972 the municipal council decided to dissolve the municipality and integrate it into the municipality of Schlüsselfeld on July 1, 1972. On the same day, the district of Höchstadt an der Aisch was dissolved (today Erlangen-Höchstadt). The municipality of Schlüsselfeld and thus Heuchelheim have belonged to the Bamberg district since 1978.

Heuchelheim community seal until 1972

coat of arms

In blue on a green floor, a silver church with a turret and red roofs (awarded by the State Ministry of the Interior with a certificate dated June 14, 1949). The coat of arms shows the village church in the required heraldic simplification. The colors silver and red appearing in the municipal emblem allude to the colors of the coat of arms of the Hochstift Würzburg, which the village owned in the office of Schlüsselfeld from 1661 to the secularization of 1803. The parish also belonged to the diocese of Würzburg at this time.

Others

The war memorial on the Kirchweiher (inaugurated in 1926) lists four soldiers who participated in the Franco-German War in 1870/71 and 14 who died in the First World War . 48 men took part in World War II, 18 of whom were killed or missing.

On the connecting road Heuchelheim – Fürstenforst, 420 meters south of the municipal boundary, there is a stone Swedish cross as a sign of atonement.

Heuchelheim is located on the former connection between the formerly large Jewish communities of Aschbach and Burghaslach. Since early modern times, Jews made up more than 20 percent of the population there. Since the Burghaslach Jews partly shared the Jewish cemetery in Aschbach , the funeral procession probably passed through Heuchelheim.
