Geographical location

Ipsheim is located in the Upper Aisch Valley, which belongs to the Rangau . The landscape is dominated by Hoheneck Castle, which lies above the town. The market is located in the Frankenhöhe and Steigerwald nature parks . In Ipsheim, the Ansbach dialect prevails as a variant of Franconian .

Neighboring communities are Neustadt an der Aisch , Dietersheim , Markt Erlbach , Bad Windsheim and Sugenheim, starting from the north and clockwise .

geology

Ipsheim is located on the upper layers of the Middle Keuper , which here consists mainly of gypsum , for the most part on the Acrodus Bank. Here fossils of dinosaurs , sharks (Palachutas unguetissimus) from the Triassic and tiny snails (Promathildia Theodori) were found, which were examined for the first time by Hans Thürach from Ipsheim .

The Hoheneck Castle, which belongs to Ipsheim, is located on a hill near the village, which is an offshoot of the Frankenhöhe .

The Eichmühle is not an officially named part of the municipality.

history

Prehistory and early history

The first indications of human settlement in the region around Ipsheim come from hunters who set up temporary settlements here during the Paleolithic Age : After the Second World War, for example, a 12 cm long flint dagger was found in a field , the age of which was estimated to be 45,000 years. Somewhat younger, around 40,000 years old, is a chert made from chert , which was found with a heavy patina on the mountain plateau south of Hoheneck Castle . The spur position of the site was likely to have been decisive for its settlement, as one could see the surrounding valleys from there. A whole series of finds of small stone tools have been found on the slopes around the castle from the Mesolithic Age . After people settled down in the Neolithic Age , a larger settlement was built in Ipsheim, from which tools in the younger band ceramic style , arrowheads, stone axes made of porphyrite and a millstone were found.

In the following centuries of the Bronze Age and Iron Age , the area may have been inhabited continuously, with only one for himself Ipsheim Celtic population from the Latènezeit can be demonstrated. In addition, however, from the turn of the times there were members of various Elbe Germanic peoples who moved through the Aisch Valley, who settled and were absorbed into the original population. The exact location of many of these settlements is not known.

Origin of Ipsheim

Today's Ipsheim was founded around 600 when settlers from the original areas of the Franconian Empire moved east in order to assimilate the conquered areas of the Alemanni , Thuringians and Bavarians and integrate them into the Franconian Empire as a numerically small upper class . This is evident from the name ending " -heim ", which was usually added to the name of the founder of the place. "Ipsheim" is to be interpreted as the home of an Ippet, Ippeto, Ipata, Ipo or Ibet and does not go back, as is sometimes assumed, to the nearby plaster deposits. In the numerous start-ups that era, however, it was initially mostly only small hamlet that to himself districts - in the case of Ipsheim the Rangau - grouped. For the first centuries, in which the Franks dominated the region named after them more and more clearly, no further information about the development of Ipsheim has come down to us. However, since it does not appear in one of the numerous deed of donation from that time, it is likely that it remained in the direct possession of the king.

With the increasing settlement of the Windsheim basin, Ipsheim changed from a hamlet to a clustered village by the end of the first millennium , the courtyards of which were grouped around a church and formed a uniform, protective front towards the outside. Independent settlement movements started from here. Metteldorf, which perished in the Thirty Years' War, and Oberndorf, which is now incorporated , were probably founded by Ipsheim settlers . The first written mention of Ipsheim that has been preserved does not date until 1189, when a "Cunradus de ippetesheim" is mentioned as a witness from the lay state in a document regarding a dispute over ownership of the Heilsbronn monastery .

Ownership history

Various evidence suggests that in the High Middle Ages Ipsheim was still under the king's control as an imperial village and was administered by the Nuremberg Bailiwick or was partly owned by free farmers. From the 13th century, however, it gradually became the property of various noble families. First and foremost were the burgraves of Nuremberg from the House of Hohenzollern . In the power vacuum of the interregnum , they seized sovereignty over various imperial estates (including Ipsheim), which the new Roman-German King Rudolf von Habsburg finally legalized in thanks for his election in 1273. In 1387 the court court confirmed to the burgrave the acquisition of the entire Hoheneck estate, which had perhaps taken place in 1381. Until 1792 Ipsheim remained under the administration of the Kulmbach-Bayreuth line of the Hohenzollern house, which also acquired the largest property there.

In addition, various lines of the Seckendorffs , some of which were servants of the Hohenzollern, owned goods in Ipsheim. The town of Windsheim, the parish of Ipsheim, various monasteries, the bishop of Würzburg and the von Teuerlein family (who were in the service of the Seckendorffs and who owned the Hoheneck Castle with them) are also the landowners. The ownership of the latter passed to the von Eltershofen family in the 16th century, while the Hohenzollern people gradually displaced other landowners such as the Seckendorf family from Ipsheim and Hoheneck Castle. At the beginning of modern times there were still two free courtyards in Ipsheim, which were fully owned by the residents or had privileges such as exemption from taxes.

Development in the Middle Ages

From 1360 there is evidence of viticulture in the village. When Ipsheim got the market rights is controversial. Tradition has it that Arnold von Hoheneck received it as a fiefdom from Rudolf von Habsburg in 1278 in gratitude for his bravery in the Battle of Marchfeld , in which Ipsheimers also fought. According to Christian Wilhelm Schirmer, Albrecht Achilles (r. 1440–1486) granted Ipsheim market privileges; the historical atlas of Bavaria gives the year 1700; From 1722 onwards, the municipality's budget includes income from markets. However, there was certainly a fair at the Eichenmühle from at least 1412. In addition to the market rights, the economic situation of Ipsheim has improved further that in 1410 the residents were given the right to use a quarter of the contested Hoheneck Forest, which belonged to the Seckendorffs. The use was regulated by forest regulations ( e.g. from 1615) so that the forest has been preserved to this day and has never been completely cleared.

Although Ipsheim is mentioned many times in the late Middle Ages as the hometown of people or as gifts, information on historical development, for example on the effects of the plague , is sparse or non-existent. In the course of the numerous divisions and reunions of the Hohenzollern property in the late 14th and 15th centuries, Ipsheim belonged to the "Franconian Netherlands" with the main town of Ansbach, but was transferred to the rulers of the "Oberland" Kulmbach-Bayreuth in the house contract of 1437. As part of the Netherlands administered from Bayreuth, it belonged to the so-called "Bayreuth Lowlands". Ipsheim was drawn into the conflicts between the Hohenzollern and the Free Imperial Cities under Nuremberg's leadership several times. As early as 1388, like most of the Hohenzollern towns in the Aisch Valley, it was destroyed by Nuremberg city troops in the city ​​war after they had violently ended the siege of the allied Windsheim by the hostile Nuremberg burgrave Friedrich V von Hohenzollern. Ipsheim, like 18 other villages, was destroyed again by setting fire in 1449 during the First Margrave War by the city of Nuremberg, which was intended to weaken its competitor and Lord of Ipsheim, the Hohenzoller Albrecht Achilles . Possibly another destruction took place in 1461, when Hoheneck Castle was conquered by bishops in a feud with the margrave. In the Hussite Wars , Ipsheim was finally provided with further defenses, but the place was not attacked.
The Burgstall Ipsheim is located on the western edge of the village .

16th Century

Most of the Ipsheim farmers did not join the uprisings of the Franconian Peasant War , especially since the burden of taxes and compulsory labor was comparatively low and the village was in a very good economic position (market rights, access to a forest). However, at the end of May 1525, when farmers from Windsheim marched through the Aisch Valley to support the uprising in Neustadt ad Aisch, Margrave Kasimir stationed cavalry units in Ipsheim, which intercepted the farmers, killed most of them and beheaded ten prisoners in the village. As a result of this "Ipsheim blood court" the village had to raise 300 guilders; Casimir also had the church looted. In the Second Margrave War , Ipsheim, which was already relatively wealthy again, was destroyed by the Windsheimers and their allies in 1553; the defense tower blown up.

On June 18, 1564, a community ordinance was issued in Ipsheim that regulated everyday life, economic activities, fire protection and other matters in the event of severe sentences. Compliance with this was checked by the Kastner of the Hohenzollern caste office in Ipsheim, which had existed since 1381 and whose main task was to control the taxes and issue certificates. Since there were a large number of possessions and thus governors in Ipsheim , the Kastner, as the representative of the largest landowner, also took control of public spaces, the military sovereignty and the lower jurisdiction and was thus the lord of Ipsheim. The next higher instance, which also exercised high jurisdiction , was the bailiff von Hoheneck. There is an indication of the population of Ipsheim for 1591, since a number of 88 teams is given for the village . Christoph Rückert concludes from this that “450, maximum 500 inhabitants”.

17th and 18th centuries

The 17th century was a particularly difficult time for Ipsheim. While the waves of plague of 1575 and 1582 only hit the town slightly, the disease cost even more lives from 1601 onwards. On March 8, 1617, a fire broke out that destroyed about half the village. During the Thirty Years' War Ipsheim - like the Aischtal in general - was often plagued by plundering soldiers, the first time from October 14, 1621 by troops of the military leader Peter Ernst II von Mansfeld . On November 14, 1631, however, Ipsheim was spared heavy looting in return for a payment of 70 thalers; in the following year, however, there were heavy looting because the armies of Gustav Adolf of Sweden and the general Wallenstein faced each other near Nuremberg, and in 1636 they moved Troops of General Carl Gustaf Wrangel hit the village badly. In addition to the marauding soldiers and the economic emergency, there were epidemics such as the plague and the red dysentery , so that in 1632 there were 189 deaths in one year, in 1634 even 277 deaths in the village (other information: 1632 277 deaths and 1634 247 deaths). From 1632 to 1648 the population decreased by 75 to 80%. After the war, however, the population grew again quickly, among other things due to a high birth rate and probably also due to immigrating Austrian exiles . The financial situation of the community normalized again, and in 1663 a new community order was issued, which among other things also regulated the working conditions of the village employees ( shepherds , halls , schoolmasters , midwives , meat and fire viewers, etc.). According to her, after the annual village assembly on May 1st, two village masters will be elected for two years. From 1672 this office was called “Peasant Master” and soon afterwards “Mayor”.

From 1673 to 1677 imperial soldiers were quartered in Ipsheim. In 1693, Margrave Christian Ernst held a court camp near the village for representational purposes . Around 1720, the Hoheneck office, whose administration was now completely in Ipsheim, became an upper office which, along with two others, administered the entire Neustädter Unterland and had to raise two companies for the Neustadt regional regiment. This made Ipsheim (as Oberamt Ipsheim) on the one hand an important administrative center of the region and on the other hand a place of assembly for troops. Ipsheim was affected by the numerous wars of the 18th century, but it did not have any major impact. In 1771/1772 a famine hit the place badly, but it caused some changes in the following years and decades: The potato was introduced, cows were fed through the stalls, and the cultivation of spelled increasingly had to give way to the cultivation of wheat. In the following decades, hop growing was added as an economic branch , which gained in importance in the 19th century instead of viticulture.

Towards the end of the 18th century there were 88 properties in Ipsheim. The high court exercised the Brandenburg-Bayreuth Vogtamt Altheim . If necessary, it had to be delivered to the Vogtamt Lenkersheim . The village and township government had the box office Ipsheim and the Brandenburg-ansbachische Vogt Office Birkenfels jointly hold. The landlords were the Principality of Bayreuth (63 properties; Ipsheim caste office: 2 office buildings, parish church, Gottesackerkirche, rectory, schoolhouse, 1 courtyard, 3 taverns, 1 half yard, 27 estates, 3 mills, grain boxes, tithe barn, office servants' house, 20 houses; Windsheim caste office : 1 house), the Vogtamt Birkenfels (17 properties), the imperial town of Windsheim (4 estates, 1 Häckersgut), the Unterzenn manor (1 Freihof , 1 house), the parish Altheim and Unterstesselbach (1 house).

Prussia, France, Bavaria

After the abdication of Margrave Karl Alexander , Ipsheim passed to the Kingdom of Prussia in January 1792 . On June 1, 1797, the Oberamt was replaced by the newly formed Chamber Office Ipsheim; the office of the bailiff was now called "Schultheiss". In 1804, after Windsheim had also passed to Prussia, the Second Chamberlain from Ipsheim also became the local commissioner of Windsheim.

During the Fourth Coalition War , Ipsheim was used several times for billeting. When French soldiers called in horses on October 6, 1806, but the farmers did not want to provide them and decided to quarter the French for the time being, a soldier shot in the air in the tavern in the evening. This led to a fight in which two farmers were killed and the church bell rang a storm. Although the residents voluntarily fined and fined shortly afterwards, the returning soldiers devastated the parish and tavern on October 7 and shot the innkeeper. On November 28, 1806, the community representatives in Bayreuth Ipsheim Castle passed the oath to the French military government, which largely retained the administrative structures. The payments that the population had to make in the following wars and the numerous billeting (also in the wars of liberation ) were rather depressing .

On July 5, 1810, Ipsheim was transferred to Bavaria as part of the Rezatkreis (later "Middle Franconia") on the basis of the Paris Treaty . The two chamber offices of Neuhof and Ipsheim were merged with the transition to Bavaria to form the Ipsheim Rent Office , which was no longer administrative, but only had financial tasks. Jurisdiction was transferred to the Windsheim Regional Court . Together with the transition of the parish from the superintendant Neustadt to the Dean's office in Windsheim, this meant the separation of Ipsheim from Neustadt.

As part of the municipal edict , the Ipsheim tax district was formed in 1811 , to which Bühlberg , Eichelberg , Eichmühle , Hoheneck , Holzhausen , Ipsheim, Mailheim , Mäusberg , Oberndorf and Weimersheim belonged. The rural community formed in 1817 was congruent with the tax district. In administration and jurisdiction it was subordinate to the District Court of Windsheim and in financial administration to the Ipsheim Rent Office . Voluntary jurisdiction over an estate in Ipsheim had, however, until 1848, the patrimonial Unternzenn held. With the second community edict (1818), the rural community was split into:

• Rural community Eichelberg with Bühlberg, Hoheneck and Holzhausen;
• Ipsheim rural community with Eichmühle;
• Rural community Oberndorf;
• Rural community Mailheim with Mäusberg and Weimersheim.

The poverty that Ipsheim suffered from after the wars and two years of hunger could not be overcome through voluntary money collections, which is why a poor tax was decided. Nevertheless, the poor house remained overcrowded and in 1840 the first Ipsheimers emigrated to America. No influence on Ipsheim can be proven for the German Revolution of 1848/1849 . However, the subsequent abolition of the manor was controversial, as the residents had to make compensation payments, which dragged on into the 20th century. In 1856 the area of ​​the former Neuhof Chamber of Commerce, which had been financially administered from Ipsheim since 1810, was transferred to the Markt Erlbach Rent Office. In 1862, the Ipsheim Rent Office was completely relocated to Windsheim during the administrative reform. The Franco-German War in 1870 cost Ipsheim three residents; however, the integration into the German Reich as well as into the subordinate Kingdom of Bavaria was quick.

In the period up to 1914, Ipsheim was hit by a major modernization. Regular public transport was guaranteed by the horse post coach in 1856, and by initiative of the pharmacist Max Fleischmann in the village, a post expedition was built. With the opening of the Neustadt - Windsheim railway line on August 6, 1876, Ipsheim also received a train station. In the 1870s and on July 29, 1887, there were major fires in Ipsheim, which, however, did not change the shape of the village much. In 1899 the post office received a telegraph, and in 1907 Ipsheim was connected to the telephone network. In September of this year, an Ipsheimer Bürger cooperative was established, which set up an electricity plant to cover the growing energy demand in the following year . As a result, Ipsheim and the other villages it served had electricity earlier than other municipalities. In 1912 the plant had three diesel sets and supplied six places, by 1967 the number had grown to 128 places. In 1921 the flourishing company, which also included the Ipsheim overland headquarters and had an average of 30 employees, signed an electricity supply contract with the Franconian overland plant , from which it was taken over in 1967. In the first decades of the 20th century, bicycles, motorcycles and cars also found their way into Ipsheim one after the other. While the craft - mostly practiced as a part-time - disappeared, industry and services gained in importance. Overall, however, Ipsheim remained dominated by agriculture.

National Socialism and World Wars

At the First World War 106 Ipsheimer participated, of which fell 41st In Ipsheim, in the post-war elections for the Reichstag, mainly SPD members were elected in view of the material hardship , national-conservative to nationalist groups gained the upper hand in their disappointment with their “ compliance policy ” . As early as 1921, a paramilitary unit was founded in the village by Leonhard Göss (1896–1974) and his party comrade Reinhardt from Dottenheim, which shortly afterwards joined the SA and with 32 Ipsheimers took part in the first Nazi coup attempt in Munich in 1923, but not in the actual Hitler putsch and themselves subsequently dissolved. In 1922 the local group of the German Work Community was founded, for which Julius Streicher promoted especially in the Aisch valley and thus brought "almost the entire population" of Ipsheim to his side. When Streicher switched to the NSDAP in 1922 , many did the same. After the Hitler putsch in 1923 and the party was banned, the local branch changed to the German Workers' Party , but the NSDAP Ipsheim was re-established in 1925 or 1926 and had around 60 members in 1933. Together with Hoheneck Castle, Ipsheim became a stronghold of the Oberlandbund from June / July 1923 . "Völkisch" solstice celebrations were held there and on July 1, 1923 a "Schlageter celebration" was held as one of many public reactions to the execution of Albert Leo Schlageter .

At the instigation of the publisher Julius Friedrich Lehmann , who had bought Hoheneck Castle, Joseph Stolzing-Czerny wrote the work "Arnold von Hoheneck, a patriotic festival from Ipsheim's past in three acts", which was very nationalistic and anti-Semitic. The play was rehearsed by a "festival association", with professional actors being engaged for the leading roles in the first performances. A special hall was built for the Heimatfest (June 27-29, 1925), where the play was premiered. From 1927 the NSDAP and the SA came to the fore again instead of the Oberlandbund. For example, lectures were given by NSDAP politicians like Karl Holz and in late autumn 1927 one of the masterminds of the Hitler putsch , Ernst Pöhner , was buried in Hoheneck Castle. From June 7th to 9th, 1930, a nationally announced Whitsun Gautreffen with 2000 participants took place in Ipsheim, at which Arnold von Hoheneck was performed several times again and Georg Strasser , Julius Streicher and Lieutenant Edmund Heines appeared as speakers . Adolf Hitler, who had been announced and was to be granted honorary citizenship, did not come (he refused honorary citizenship “in this state”); Franz Ritter von Epp , who had also been announced , stayed away from the event. After the Ipsheimer SA-Sturm 14 had held a "Great German Evening" on March 6, 1932 with the Neustädter teacher and standard leader Hans Kehrberger as the keynote speaker, a conference of the SA leaders of Standard 8 took place in the Ipsheimer festival hall in June 1932 .

In the Reichstag elections of March 1933, the NSDAP received 467 votes (approx. 92%) in Ipsheim, while the SPD and KPD only received one vote each. The village was soon recognized by the Nazis, so there was next to the SA Hitler Youth , Nazi women's organization , the Labor Front , People's Welfare and a local peasant leader . Numerous party events took place while the traditional associations took a back seat. There were few critics of the regime; however, they were not attacked by the village community. In May 1933, the master mason Friedrich Nikolaus Hülf (1869-1943) was relieved of his 21-year post as mayor after disagreements with Julius Streicher . The Reich Labor Service (RAD) had been active in Ipsheim since 1938, mainly building the Aisch flood canal and was then replaced from 1939 to 1942 by "labor maids" who worked in agriculture.

While fear prevailed at the outbreak of war, Ipsheim was also seized by war euphoria after the campaigns against Poland and France, especially since there were still no deaths from the town to complain about. From 1940 foreign workers worked in the village, especially in agriculture. In 1941 the number of deaths began to pile up, until in 1945 63 of 118 participants had fallen. During this time, more and more people from the Red Zone and bomb-prone cities were housed in Ipsheim . In addition, 17 members of the RAD died, whose train was shot down shortly before the end of the war and who were temporarily buried in Ipsheim. Through all these developments, the society of the place changed dramatically. At the end of the war, a Volkssturm was set up, but on April 14, 1945, at 3:30 p.m., the Americans entered Ipsheim from the north without being attacked. The village did not suffer any external damage from the war. The Americans were peaceful and withdrew in November. The RAD camp was used for prisoners of war and was disbanded in January 1946. Most of the inmates returned to their homeland, only a few, mainly from the eastern regions , settled in Ipsheim. There were also refugees who were assigned to Ipsheim.

Development after 1945

From 1945 a total of 850 refugees were taken in, of which 380 settled in Ipsheim and were integrated in the following years. Due to the strong population growth during and after the war, Ipsheim increasingly turned from a farming village into a commuter place. In the 1950s, the land consolidation , which had already begun in 1934, was completed, in the course of which the land parcels were regrouped into larger units, so that the use of technical aids was more profitable. In 1959 Ipsheim was connected to the long-distance water system, and a sewerage system and a sewage treatment plant were built in the 1960s.

In 1961 the municipality had an area of ​​10.494 km². In the course of the regional reform in the 1970s, the district of Uffenheim, to which Ipsheim belonged until then, dissolved in the district of Neustadt an der Aisch / Bad Windsheim. On July 1, 1972 the previously independent communities Eichelberg and Oberndorf were incorporated, on January 1, 1978 Kaubenheim followed and on May 1, 1978 Mailheim. The enlarged Ipsheim formed the Ipsheim administrative community with Dietersheim and Unterstesselbach , which was dissolved again in 1980 after less than two years. At the same time, a vineyard land consolidation took place at the instigation of the winegrowers' association, in which the uneconomically positioned and built up vineyards were completely redesigned and integrated into the landscape. Overall, Ipsheim increasingly developed into a large housing estate , to which two new residential areas, the settling businesses and the introduction of street names in 1982 contributed.

Population development

In the period from 1988 to 2018, the population increased from 1776 to 2174 by 398 inhabitants or by 22.4%.

• Citizens of Ipsheim 6 seats (−1)
• Districts with Ipsheim - together strong 8 (+8)

badges and flags

On March 30, 1982, the coat of arms, which had been kept unofficially for a long time, was officially approved by the Central Franconian government.

Blazon : “ Fourth of silver and red; in 1 and 4: a slanted green vine leaf, in 2 and 3: ten silver bricks placed one to two to three to four. " Green-white-red municipal flag

Reasons for the coat of arms: The vine leaves stand for the importance of viticulture in Ipsheim, the bricks for the brickworks that used to be in the village. The four-part division goes back to the coat of arms of the Hohenzollern family , the colors silver and red to the noble Seckendorff family and the fact that Ipsheim belonged to Franconia. Thus, in addition to economic peculiarities, two families who exerted a great influence on the development of the place in the past were included in the coat of arms.

middle Ages

Although the local tradition gives a founding date of 1273 for the parish of Ipsheim, the parish there is in reality at least already founded in the course of the church reform of Boniface and formed its own parish from 1000 onwards . For a very early date of origin (before 700) also, also speaks that the church John the Baptist ordained is.

The first pastor known by name ("Conradus") is documented for 1293. In the high and late Middle Ages the existing church towers were added; In the 14th and 15th centuries, the church, the rectory, the sacristan's house and some surrounding courtyards were completely rebuilt into a fortified church. From the first St. John's Church, only the foundation walls and an arrow slit that is now covered by plaster are archaeologically verifiable. When Ipsheim was destroyed for the second time in the First Margrave War in 1449, the fortified church was probably destroyed, while it apparently survived the first conquest in 1388 without major damage.

In the course of the 15th century with its numerous wars and feuds in the Ipsheim area, the church was rebuilt in the Gothic style. The fortified church was turned into a fortified church with four corner towers, which in troubled times was supposed to offer safe protection for the village population as a last refuge. A fireproof tower was built at the west portal; the alleys were built together in such a way that they made a real fortification, which was supplemented in places by a ditch; In addition, storage rooms, emergency shelters, a fire pond and a defense tower were installed. The rectory, the cemetery wall and the church choir screened the complex from the south and east, the school, the sacristan's house and the integrated courtyards from the north and west. In the church itself, the choir was extended to the east and a side chapel was built under the small tower. In the 16th century, a property integrated into the fortified church was converted into a schoolhouse.

As part of the country chapter wind home in Archidiakonat Rangau Ipsheim belonged to reformation to Bistum Wurzburg . In practice, however, the margrave performed the duties of the bishop and in 1473 endowed the pastor with exceptional privileges in the village.

Modern times

From 1528 Margrave Georg vigorously promoted the Reformation in Franconia and wanted to identify and dismiss Catholic preachers by visiting churches . Since the Ipsheim pastor Peter Hamann eluded a discussion with the responsible commission, Johannes Beer was put in his place on October 29, 1530; the Ipsheim parish became Protestant. In 1533 Philipp Getreu from Obernzenn became pastor in Ipsheim. He had already agreed to the Reformation in 1528. From 1578 to 1810 Ipsheim belonged to the deanery Neustadt an der Aisch . Counter-Reformation efforts are not known from Ipsheim.

The church was badly damaged in the Thirty Years' War , especially during the siege of Nuremberg by Wallenstein in 1632. In 1677 the small tower, which was in danger of collapsing, was restored, in 1686 and 1687 the large tower as well. The altar followed in 1692 and in 1694, with material support from the margrave, the choir, so that in 1698 the repair of the nave could be started, which was enlarged to the current size towards the south. The pulpit with its evangelist pictures was sold to Kaubenheim and a new pulpit was installed in Ipsheim. Since the old fortified church could not have withstood the new weapons anyway, the new building no longer contained any fortifications. Due to a fortunate coincidence that saved the Marchioness recently on the way from Ipsheim after Windheim in a car accident, the life, the church was at its inauguration on July 29, 1708 the name "Providentia dei" ( providence of God). Nevertheless, this name fell in favor of the old “St. Johannes “will soon be forgotten again and the old church feast Sunday Exaudi eight days before Pentecost was retained. In 1709 the lower gallery was renewed, and the upper gallery by 1736. In 1728 the large tower was raised again and received the onion roof, which is distinctive for the church to this day.

During a church renovation in 1818, the church was redesigned under the motto of the religion of reason : a wooden wall was drawn in between the nave and the choir, a pulpit was built into it above the main altar and the oil painting "Christ in Gethsemane" was attached. The carved altars were sold, the sacristy was torn down and replaced with a new one, and the old baptismal font had to give way to one made of wood. After the war of 1870 was at the church war memorial in obelisk form built, later the dead of World Wars have been added to the. In 1904 the church was renovated again with financial support from the state, the choir was reopened, a sacristy in the south and new stalls in the nave were added, a new organ was bought and a glass painting in the altar window was financed by donations.

At the beginning of the Third Reich in 1934 there were 18 members of the German Christians compared to 487 members of the Confessing Church , which at that time did not yet generally question the Third Reich. The church struggle , however, turned out more and more in favor of the party, which resulted in an increasing secularization of everyday life. After the Second World War there was also a notable Catholic minority in Ipsheim. In 1970 there were 211 inhabitants, which corresponds to 15.5%. In 1963, when the church was renovated again, the choir gallery and the cloister between the stalls were removed and a new pulpit in Baroque style and an altar were installed. In addition, after the Second World War, a parish hall was built, which was initially used as a kindergarten and was finally given its current purpose in 1987.

Cemetery and chapels

Until 1607, the cemetery was in the courtyard behind the church, which at that time was within the fortifications. For reasons of space - especially due to the violent plague outbreaks - a new cemetery was inaugurated on October 17, 1607, where Walburgi's courtier from Westheim was buried as the first person.

In addition to the main church, four chapels are known in Ipsheim. The oldest is St. Egidien or St. Gilgen near the oak mill, about which information is available from around 1335 and which fell into disrepair in the 16th century. A chaplain worked here between 1499 and 1566 . From the period between 1466 and 1495 there is evidence of a chapel of St. Maria and Katharina in the south of the village, the exact location of which is not known. However, various indications indicate that it was in the same place as the third chapel, the cemetery chapel Zum Heiligen Kreuz , which was inaugurated on December 18, 1614 and still exists today. In it there is a group of crosses by Georg Brenck the Elder , which shows the crucified Christ and John and Mary on both sides. In 1772 the entire chapel was rebuilt again and expanded in the northern area. In the 17th century, a memorial plaque to the deceased daughters of the bailiff Sebastian Arzberger, who had also died at that time, was attached to the south wall and protected with a house, the daughters themselves were buried in a crypt. After the Second World War, the crypt was filled in, the shelter was used as a mortuary, while the chapel itself was used for the Catholic services that were now taking place. In 1971 a new morgue was built.

In 2010 the couple Walter and Elfi Beck also donated a vineyard chapel.

• “Der Wall”: In the northwest of today's Ipsheim there was possibly a square hill surrounded by water as early as in Celtic times . From around 1000 there was a watchtower on a sandstone hill , which was also used as a residential tower , as finds from stove tiles show. Due to its favorable location - surrounded by swamp on the side facing away from the village, protected by an artificial moat towards the village and surrounded by a rampart - the building served on the one hand for defense and on the other hand as a noble seat to control the village. The lords of the small castle complex could have been the king's servants, according to KF von Seckendorff, but also the dear family of knights - although these assumptions do not have to be mutually exclusive. There are archaeological finds from the 11th to the 13th century, at the end of which the wall ceded its function to Hoheneck Castle and, like it, was destroyed by Windsheim troops in 1381. In 1723 the Hohenzollern built a garden house / moated castle with a cellar in the Baroque style, known as the “Wallhäuschen” or “Weiherhäuschen”. Today this building is completely on an island that is 50 meters long and 40 meters wide, and is surrounded by a moat two meters deep and seven meters wide.
• "Box building": The Margrave had this building built for the box office in Ipsheim in the second half of the 16th century. This had the task of collecting all taxes and duties such as the tithe in the area of ​​responsibility and organizing the delivery of natural produce. The new building with a hipped roof and four-story tower was used to store them. In the 18th century, the box building was also used by the Windsheim box office and the officials in charge moved from Hoheneck Castle to the Ipsheim official building. In 1853 the municipality of Ipsheim bought the box construction from the state of Bavaria for 3,300 guilders; In 1908 the cooperative rented the building to establish an electricity company in order to build the power station there.
• May'sches Schlösschen / Kastenamt / Rathaus: The building was initially the residence of the von Eltershofen family, who had inherited the property of the Teuerlein family. In 1616 Paul May, an employee of the Hohenzollern office, bought the castle; it is also named after him. After his death in 1653 it was drafted as local lord by the margrave and from then on served as the seat of the Oberamt Ipsheim (see under "History") and the seat of the caste office. In 1687, 300 Huguenots who had fled France were temporarily quartered here, half of whom died. The location of the building, which was demolished in the second half of the 18th century, is not certain. However, it is quite possible that it was in the same place as its successor, the Kastenamt, a mighty solid building . From 1810 the rent office was housed in it as the successor institution to the senior office. The building later served as a forestry office, from 1965 as a school building and today as the town hall.
• Hoheneck Castle . Since 1984 it has housed the youth education center of the Nürnberg-Stadt district youth association.
• Guard house, built in 1788 as an official and night watchman's house

education

A first school had existed in the sacristan's house since the Reformation, which was expanded into a larger schoolhouse from 1711 to 1713. The first known teacher was Michael Denzer (schoolmaster from 1578). Compulsory schooling, which existed from 1811, meant that lessons had to be divided into a morning and an afternoon shift. Since the number of students rose to a value between 116 (1890s) and 189 (1874), the new school building with three classrooms and two teacher's apartments was built on the western edge of Ipsheim after long plans in 1892-1893, and the old one was demolished in 1896. The school consisted of six (later seven) classes and two (later three) teachers. In 1945 American soldiers lived briefly in the building, but classes began again in September. From 1967 to 1969 the Ipsheimer Schule and Lenkersheim formed an association school , in 1970 it was converted into a primary and partial secondary school and closed in 1977. In 1980 a four-class elementary school was set up again.
