history

The first documentary mention comes from the year 1276 when the widow Gertrud des Konrad von Ketschendorf donated all tithe to the cathedral monastery in the village of Egelsvelt, as well as other goods in Frankendorf and Stackendorf.

Surname

The pronunciation of the locals is simply Egelsfeld . This form also appears in the oldest documents and means field of Egil . The syllable cold , added later, expresses the harsh climate. It would be conceivable that they wanted to differentiate it from the warmer Eggolsheim in Regnitzgrund.

Modern times

The poor conditions after the First World War prompted the Bayreuth District President to visit the Jura villages of Dürrbrunn, Kalteneggolsfeld, Oberngrub, Teuchatz, etc. in May 1925. In his travelogue he stated:

“In general, the impression we got during our visits and meetings was not as unpleasant as we expected. It is undoubtedly an area in which economic operations are struggling with extremely difficult conditions; stony ground, high, rough location, far away from the train stations in the valley, no state roads at all, few district roads and poor, sometimes very steep communal and field paths, almost no opportunity to earn a living through commercial operations, factory work or daily wages; Little profitable forests, for the most part very poor water supply. What is most needed is the improvement of the paths and the improvement of the water supply. "

On May 1, 1978, the previously independent community was incorporated into the Heiligenstadt market in Upper Franconia.
