history

Kösfeld was first mentioned in 1317 in the Urbarium , a listing of possessions of the Henneberger when the New Rulership was acquired, as "Koesefurte".

At the beginning of the 14th century, Kösfeld was under the rule of the Henneberger . In 1353 the place with the Coburg Land came by inheritance to the Wettins and was thus part of the Electorate of Saxony from 1485 , from which the Duchy of Saxony-Coburg later emerged. In a referendum on November 30, 1919, none of the citizens of Kösfeld voted for the Free State of Coburg to join the Thuringian state and five against. Thus, from July 1, 1920, Kösfeld also belonged to the Free State of Bavaria . In 1925, the 137.83 hectare village had 48 residents, 46 of whom belonged to the Protestant church, and 8 residential buildings.

For centuries, Kösfeld has been part of the Evangelical Lutheran church district and school district of Wiesenfeld, 1.3 kilometers away. In 1962, Kösfeld was incorporated into Wiesenfeld, where school lessons also took place. On May 1, 1978, Wiesenfeld was forcibly incorporated into Meeder and Kösfeld became a district of Meeder. In 1987 the village had 45 residents and 11 houses.
