Hohleborn has been a district of Bad Salzungen in the Wartburg district in Thuringia since 1973 .

geography

The place Hohleborn is about four kilometers (as the crow flies) southwest of the core town of Bad Salzungen and two kilometers west of the district Langenfeld . The place is at the foot of the northeastern roof of the foothills of the Rhön in a valley cut. The town is connected to the B 285 via the district road 94 to Langenfeld . The highest point is the Salzunger Berg ( 481.4  m above sea level ). The water network consists of several sources (Tröpfleinsborn, Hundsborn) which flow north as Leimbach into the Werra valley .

history

The village, which can be traced back to a farm, was first mentioned in a document on December 1, 1312. The old traffic route from Stadtlengsfeld to the Werra valley near Bad Salzungen can be migrated as a ravine tuft to the immediate vicinity of today's settlement from the forest town of Tröpfleinsborn. Apparently the farmers sitting in Hohleborn provided pre-tensioning services for the passage over the steep path that led past Tröpfleinsborn in order to cope with the 100 m difference in altitude to the top of the pass. The place Hohloborn was already connected to the neighboring village of Langenfeld in the Middle Ages, where the parish church, school and tavern were located. The place name indicates a special well, from the literature it is known that the Hohleborn spring was temporarily dried up ( hollow also means empty ), the water-bearing layer was hit again through subsequent excavations and now fills a small pond in the locality. The Salzunger Pfänerschaft also looked for further salt springs in the Hohleborn area . The field name “Salzunger Berg” is explained by the use of the forest. The forests served the Salzunger Saline, about five kilometers away, as firewood for the boiling pans. In the Thirty Years' War Hohleborn was for decades the deserted village . The information obtained from the Langenfeld church chronicle of Walch name three courtyards, several times by the warring parties plundered and pillaged were. The survivors left the place and lived in Langenfeld and Salzungen. In 1705 six residents of Langenfeld dared to rebuild the settlement. In 1813, according to Walch, the place consisted of six houses and 32 residents. The forest belonging to the district was in hereditary possession of the Salzunger Pfänerschaft. In 1713 the first child of the new settlers was born and noted in the Langenfeld baptismal register . Geological investigations ( deep drilling ) were commissioned in 1894 to determine the salt deposits near Langenfeld and Hohleborn. On July 1, 1950, Hohleborn became a town in the newly founded Bad Salzungen district. 1973 the incorporation with Langenfeld and Kaltenborn into the urban area of ​​Bad Salzungen takes place. The agricultural place also has a forester's house.

On June 30, 2009, 50 people lived in Hohleborn. For the 700th anniversary on September 8, 2012, all 16 houses were decorated and the 47 residents welcomed almost 1000 guests to the village. On the occasion of the local anniversary, a local chronicle was made.
