According to the number of inhabitants, Huppert is the fourth largest district of the municipality of Heidenrod in the Rheingau-Taunus district in southern Hesse .

geography

Huppert is located in the Taunus in the most densely wooded municipality in Hesse in Heidenrod. The Dörsbach flows from the source at Erlenhof on its course to the north, first west past Huppert and further through the Hintertaunus towards Lahn and is accompanied by the Dörsbach-Mühlenwanderweg . The Upper German-Raetian Limes ran just north-east of the village . To the north-west of the village, already beyond the municipal boundary, the small fort "Auf dem Dörsterberg" above the Dörsbach has been identified as a ground monument .

Neighboring towns are Kemel in the south and Laufenselden in the north, the main town of Heidenrod.

history

The earliest surviving documentary evidence proves the existence of the place Hupenrod since 1250, in connection with the inheritance of the Katzenelnbog counts Diether and Eberhard . On this occasion, Huppert celebrated a 750th anniversary in 2000.

In the course of the regional reform in Hesse , the municipality of Huppert merged with 15 other municipalities on December 31, 1971 on a voluntary basis to form the municipality of Heidenrod . For Huppert, as for all other districts, a local district with a local advisory board and a local mayor was set up.

Religions

Catholic and Protestant Christians live in Huppert. However, there is no church, and the parish center of the Catholic Church was sold in summer 2008, which is why Huppert no longer has a church facility. The Protestant parish of Kemel and the Catholic parish of Laufenselden are responsible for Huppert.

Culture and sights

The “ Limes- Rundwanderweg” with the small fort on the Dörsterberg and the “Dörsbach-Mühlenwanderweg” are used for tourism, which is still in the initial phase. Information boards were set up and inaugurated along the 3 km long route on October 31, 2007. The texts on it can be read in German as well as in English and French.

It is assumed that the listed old village well on the corner of Napoleonstrasse and Schulstrasse, a draw well called Rollborn , existed as the oldest water supply for the place even before it was first mentioned. The ancient well shape with the semicircular arched walling open to the front is rare in the district.
