history
Hohlach (high Loh ) means "high-lying wood" . The castle Hohlach , which no longer exists, was the eponymous seat of the Hohenlohe family from 1178 . When Gerlach von Hohenlohe sold the town and office of Uffenheim to Burgrave Friedrich, the Burgrave of Nuremberg , in 1378 , Hohlach was excluded from the sale. In Hohlach the Enheim -Ubel sat as Hohenlohe, later Ansbach feudal people, as well as at Brauneck Castle . The castle was already in ruins in the 13th century.
The Lords of Ehenheim (from Enheim ) then sat in a permanent house in Hohlach until 1645 , which was located in the immediate vicinity of the church to the west of it. This was probably also the location of the Hohenlohe family castle. In 1608 Hohlach had 27 properties, nine of which were vogtable to Uffenheim, and 10 that of Enheim.
It has not yet been researched whether there was an older moated castle at the site of today's baroque castle (dated 1718) and the manor on the northern edge of the village . After the Enheim died out in 1645, the manor was lent to their heirs, in 1718 it came to the imperial chamber director Johann Gallus von Jacob, in 1761 to the imperial provisions director Johann Christian von Oettinger and from 1810 to 1935 it belonged to the barons of Würtzburg .
