Holzhausen , also known as Holzhausen am Hahn or Holzhausen (Hahn) , is a district of the municipality of Edermünde in the Schwalm-Eder district in northern Hesse .
Geographical location
Holzhausen lies to the west and south below the now largely wooded basalt knoll of Hahn ( 255.8 m above sea level ). The neighboring towns, clockwise from the east, are Grifte , Haldorf , Dissen , Besse and Hertingshausen ; the latter is a district of Baunatal , Dissen is one of Gudensberg , and the others are districts of Edermünde.
The Pilgerbach coming from neighboring Besse to the west flows through the village in a west-east direction on its way to the confluence with the Eder near Grifte. The small stream from Glisborn and Hertingshausen stream flow into the stream in the west .
The federal highway 49 leads directly west of the village. The district has a total area of 315 hectares; of which only 2 hectares, on and on the Hahn, are forest.
history
It is not possible to clearly prove when the place was first notarized. The Breviarium Sancti Lulli mentions around 800 "Holzhusen in pago hassorum", although it is not clear whether it is Holzhausen am Hahn or Holzhausen near Homberg . In 1146 and 1158 a "Holzhusen" is mentioned and in 1275 "Haleshausen". In a back dated to the year 1081, forged document confirmed Archbishop Siegfried I. of Mainz the pin Hasungen the donation of a court ( "Vicum") wood Bergenhusen by Duke Otto of Nordheim that these as main zisches Lehen possessed.
The history of the village is closely linked to that of its owners. The Hessian Count Werner IV († 1121), who founded the Breitenau monastery around 1113 , is said to have built a castle on the Hahn around 1100. Today nothing is left of this system.
Werner bequeathed his entire private property between the Werra , Rhine and Main to the Breitenau monastery , on July 7th 1123 his widow Gisela and his vassal Engelbold placed the monastery under the control of the Archdiocese of Mainz , with significant privileges . Immediately beforehand, Holzhausen was also owned by Mainz : a property register of Archbishop Adalbert II of Mainz records the transfer of the castles Holzhausen, Altenstat (near Jesberg ) and half of Brubach ("castra Holzhusun et Alstat et medietatem Brubachun") as well as the Breitenau Abbey by the Count Werner to the Archdiocese. Towards the end of the 12th century, Holzhausen was owned by the Lower Hessian aristocratic family Hund , probably as a Mainz fief, because Holzhausen is not recorded under their Hessian fief. The Hund family had already divided into two tribes very early on, of which the one in Kirchberg , about 10 km away , continued to call himself “Hund”, the other “von Holzhausen”. As early as 1163, there was evidence of an Adelbert von Holzhausen who appeared with many other Hessian nobles in the entourage of Heinrich the Lion in Goslar . When the Hund von Holzhausen died out with Hermann von Holzhausen in the middle of the 13th century, their property fell to the Kirchberg relatives Hermann and Otto Hund. Otto's sons divided the house into two tribes again, and Hermann, the younger, called himself von Holzhausen again. However, their property remained in inheritance. It is not certain whether Holzhausen Castle was still habitable at that time. In any case, it was no longer the case in 1346 when the Hund family sold their mountain in Holzhausen to Landgrave Heinrich II .
In 1380 the dogs gave 1/3 of their property to Landgrave Hermann II of Hesse and received it back from him. In 1408 at the latest, the lords of Grifte , who were related to the dog and descendants of Ekkebrecht von Grifte , owned half of the village as a landgrave's fief. When the second line of the Hund von Holzhausen also died out in 1430 with Otto Hund von Holzhausen, a quarter of the village came by inheritance to Reinhard von Dalwigk (the elder) and the lords of Grifte. The other three quarters went to the dog in Kirchberg. Thus was born a new ganerbschaft subject that changing over the next two centuries as part of inheritances ownership.
At first, however, Holzhausen suffered severe damage when it was burned down on November 19, 1454 together with the church in the final phase of the feud between Johann von Meysenbug and his people; During this raid, three farmers and four farmhands were dragged away from the village as prisoners. Reinhard von Dalwigk's share was drawn in as a settled fiefdom of Landgrave Ludwig II after his death , and the lords of Grifte and those of Hertingshausen , who held seven eighths of the village in 1461, became the main owners. The entire inheritance of Holzhausen was finally sold to Landgravine Amalie Elisabeth von Hessen-Kassel in 1649 .
Territorial reform
In the course of the regional reform in Hesse , the municipality of Edermünde was newly formed on December 31, 1971 through the merger of the previous municipalities of Grifte , Haldorf and “Holzhausen am Hahn”. On January 1, 1974, Edermünde and the previously independent municipality of Besse were merged by state law to form the new large municipality of Edermünde . No local districts were established.

economy
The town, which has long been characterized by agriculture and craft businesses, has increasingly become a residential and commuter community since the 1960s due to industrialization in the Baunatal and Kassel area , the favorable transport connections there and the development of new building areas. Nevertheless, agriculture with the fertile soils of the district is still an important element of the local economy.
