Place name interpretation

Karm, in its older forms Korm, Ko (e) rben / Chorben, could be related to “gehorwe” = swamp.

history

The place is first mentioned in a document in 1414 as "Chorben": Seitz Erlager zu Hofstetten and his wife sold the large and small tithe as well as an estate at Chorben, fief of the Schweiger von Gundelfingen, the Nuremberg citizen Ulreichen Hirßvogel. Another mention in the 15th century comes from 1446, when Linhart von Absberg gave his inheritance to "Ko (e) rben" to the Nuremberg patrician Hans Rieter . In 1489 the place name was "Korm". In 1491 the place name form "baskets" appears again in the Salbuch of the Jettenhofen rulership , which accordingly had property in Karm.

In the 16th century the village consisted of 17 farms.

• One each belonged to the Stauf office , the Holzschuher patrician family in Nuremberg, the Oelhafen patrician family in Nuremberg, the patrician Hans Rieter in Nuremberg, the Hirnheimer / Hürnheimer at Jettenhofen Castle , the Christoph Görl, citizen of (Hilpolt-) Stein and the saddler Peckhen, also citizens of (Hilpolt-) Stein;
• a farm was the Breitensteiner fief,
• three farms belonged to the Lords of Stein and
• six to the Nuremberg patrician Gabriel Usefulel .

Towards the end of the Old Kingdom , around 1800, Karm consisted of 19 subject estates belonging to nine different landlords,

• One property each from the Hilpoltstein Choir Foundation , the Heilig-Geist-Spital Nuremberg , the Freiherr von Holzschuher 's Misses Foundation Nuremberg as well as half a hat of the Hofmark Mörlach of Baron Joseph von Hohenhausen and Hochhaus († 1802), which in 1796 was the previous Hofmarkherr Wilhelm von Eckert had acquired
• two properties belonging to the Count von Vieregg in Munich,
• three properties belonging to Fraulein von Leiser in Amberg ,
• four properties to the Baron von Grießbäck zu Pilsach , as well as
• five the former Palatinate-Neuburg, now curb-Bavarian Rentamt Hilpoltstein,
• a good was freely owned .

There was also a chapel and two shepherds' houses in Karm. The Hilpoltstein Nursing Authority exercised high and, over its own subjects, also low jurisdiction.

In the new Kingdom of Bavaria (1806), the municipality of Karm, consisting of the village of Karm and the wasteland of Meilenbach, was later (before 1867) also assigned to the tax district of Weinsfeld with the hamlet of Kauerlach .

In 1875 25 horses, 241 cattle, 47 sheep and 85 pigs were officially counted in the municipality of Karm; in Karm itself seven horses and 176 head of cattle were recorded. In 1900 the number of animals in the municipality was 19 horses, 259 head of cattle and 149 pigs.

In the years after the Second World War, the population of Karm temporarily increased sharply (1950: 152).

On January 1, 1972, the previously independent municipality of Karm together with its districts of Kauerlach and Meilenbach was incorporated into the municipality of Meckenhausen as part of the municipal reform, which in turn became a district of the city of Hilpoltstein on July 1, 1976.

In 2000 the Karm volunteer fire brigade was able to move into a new fire station.
