Hilkersreuth

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Desert area with remains of the well

Hilkersreuth is a deserted area in the urban area of Helmbrechts in the Upper Franconian district of Hof .

Hilkersreuth, also Hilgertsreuth, is located immediately north of Helmbrechts, west of the state road St 2195 . A connecting road between Schlegelmühle and Kleinschwarzenbach branches off to the Hilkersreuth corridor on a hill. The location of individual corridors to each other and the remains of at least one well are indications of the desert. This also proves the findings of broken fragments . The area is protected as a ground monument D-4-5736-0115. According to Günther von Geldern-Crispendorf, late medieval settlement as a single farm is characteristic of the region, after which only individual settlers were able to clear parts of the remaining Allmende forest in the increasingly densely populated area . The settlements then usually only assumed the size of hamlets or remained isolated . The radial hooves of Kleinschwarzenbach end in the Hilkersreuth area. In the land register of Schauenstein , the Hilkersreuth desert is part of the Kleinschwarzenbach district and the fields are divided among the farmers from Kleinschwarzenbach and are cultivated by them. The place Hilkersreuth is mentioned in 1563 in the Kulmbacher Pfründebuch as a desert. According to the Bayreuth stand books, Hilkersreuth , which was inhabited again in 1774, is named together with a sheep farm that was later also abandoned. Hilkersreuth moved from the parish of Münchberg to the parish of Helmbrechts. The "thirtieth sheaf ", derived from tithe , was due as a levy . The exact time when Hilkersreuth became deserted again is unknown. Ludwig Bencker wrote in 1856 that the last landowner of Hilkersreuth is said to have died in a pistol duel in a dispute over a sheep hat .

In the immediate vicinity of Hilkersreuth, the Kleinschwarzenbacher Mühle is mentioned next to a sheep farm . With the burgravial register from 1408 , a "Heinrichsreuth" or "Hönrichsreuth" is also named as a desolate individual settlement . Today's Grönbach was named Heinrichsreuthbach in 1408. Like Jaythof and other small towns, Heinrichsreuth also seems to have been affected by the feud between the burgraves and the governors of Weida . In the land register of Schauenstein , the place name Heinrichsreuth is used to describe the location of the pond on today's state road. With Grub and Hoftheile , further desert settlement areas adjoin to the northeast. As part of the desert around Kleinschwarzenbach project , a map with explanations of the three desert areas was published in 2015.
