history

middle Ages

739 the place was called "Ingenhaim". The name was given by the Germanic male first name " Ingo ".

Before 1272 Ingenheim was pledged to the Lords of Lichtenberg by the Bishop of Strasbourg . But the deposit was redeemed again. The village of Ingenheim then became a fiefdom from the Bishop of Strasbourg to the Lords of Lichtenberg after they had bought it from Eberhard von Greifenstein in 1352. It belonged to the Ingweiler office in the Lichtenberg rule .

After the death of the last Lichtenberger, Count Jakob, the rule was divided and the office of Ingweiler initially fell to Zweibrücken-Bitsch. However, there was another inheritance in 1570, which brought the Ingweiler office - and thus also Ingweiler - to the County of Hanau-Lichtenberg .

Modern times

The Counts of Hanau-Lichtenberg introduced the Reformation in their county from the middle of the 16th century , which now became Lutheran .

Due to the reunification policy of France around 1680 the parts of the County of Hanau-Lichtenberg in Alsace fell under the sovereignty of France , including the office of Ingweiler with Ingenheim.

1736 died with Count Johann Reinhard III. the last male representative of the Hanau family. Due to the marriage of his only daughter, Charlotte (* 1700; † 1726), with the Hereditary Prince Ludwig (VIII.) (* 1691; † 1768) of Hesse-Darmstadt , the county of Hanau-Lichtenberg fell there. As a result of the French Revolution , the left bank of the Hanau-Lichtenberg county - and with it Ingenheim - fell to France.
