history

middle Ages

The oldest surviving mention of the village comes from the year 1167. In 1274 the series of Knights von Hutten begins with an Erkenbert. One of his descendants was Ulrich von Hutten " ex buchonia ". The village belonged to the Brandenstein office of the rule and later county of Hanau . It was given as a fiefdom to the von Hutten gentlemen.

Historical forms of names

The place name is derived from the personal name Huoto . In documents that have been preserved, Hutten was mentioned under the following names (the year in which it was mentioned in brackets):

  • Hutten (around 1137)
  • Hats (around 1150)
  • Hoten (1278)
  • Huthen (1311)

Modern times

The county of Hanau-Münzenberg was finally reformed during the Reformation , as was Hutten. Until 1537 the village belonged to the parish of Oberkalbach , then until 1764 to that of Gundhelm . Since then, the place has formed its own community, but the pastor in Gundhelm also looked after it.

In 1717, the Brandenstein office - and with it Hutten - was pledged by Hanau to the Landgrave of Hessen-Kassel for a loan of 100,000 guilders . Since the pledge was never released and after the death of Count Johann Reinhard III. von Hanau In 1736 Landgrave Friedrich von Hessen-Kassel inherited the county of Hanau-Münzenberg and with it the Brandenstein office and thus the village of Hutten, the place remained at Hessen-Kassel. In 1803 the Landgraviate was elevated to the status of the Electorate of Hesse . During the Napoleonic period, the Office of Brandenstein and Hutten was under French military administration from 1806 and belonged to the Grand Duchy of Frankfurt from 1810 to 1813 . Then it fell back to the Electorate of Hesse. After the administrative reform of the Electorate of Hesse in 1821, during which the Electorate of Hesse was divided into four provinces and 22 districts, the Brandenstein office was absorbed into the newly formed Schlüchtern district . Hutten has been part of the town of Schlüchtern since December 1, 1969.

On August 4, 1929, a Lufthansa passenger plane crashed in the forest between Elm and Hutten on a scheduled flight from Frankfurt am Main to Berlin-Tempelhof . The pilot and three other passengers were killed. A two meter high cross at the crash site still reminds of the crash.

On December 1, 1969, the previously independent community of Hutten was incorporated into the town of Schlüchtern.
