history
It was one of the oldest settlements in the area. The first documentary mention was made in the 11th century under the name "Hopfenalte". In a document from 1119 the place is called "Hopfenahe". On July 6th, 1008, Hopfenohe came to the Bamberg Monastery . The Chancellor Count Line came from Count Friedrich III. von Hopfenohe-Pettendorf-Lengenfeld , who held many fiefs around Auerbach.
The community of Hopfenohe, which only consists of the village of Hopfenohe, was relocated in 1939 as part of the expansion of the military training area (subsequently decreed by the notice of the Bavarian State Ministry of the Interior of August 22, 1951). The parish Hopfenohe was also dissolved. The village itself consisted of 26 houses and about 200 inhabitants.
The village was completely preserved until 1945, as target construction workers from the training area lived there. During the last fighting of the Second World War , the St. Martin's Church in Troschenreuth was set on fire by US artillery on April 19, 1945 and completely destroyed. For the reconstruction, the Archbishop of Bamberg provided the interior of the Hopfenoher Church by mutual agreement with Johann Ritter, the pastor of Auerbach, who was in Hopfenohe until 1938. Thereupon the village was cleared and released for demolition or for the extraction of building material for the reconstruction of villages destroyed in the Second World War. With the exception of the church ruins, the remains were razed by the Americans .
The area , which has been free from parishes since 1939 , was incorporated into the city of Grafenwöhr on July 1, 1978.
