Naumburg winery
The Naumburg winery in Wetterau essentially consisted of the secularized former Naumburg monastery .
The decline of the monastery and the Reformation brought various neighbors to the scene who tried to take over the property and lands of the monastery, which was in the process of being dissolved. In addition to the Counts of Hanau-Münzenberg , these were the Burgrave of Friedberg and the Kaichen Freigericht .
Three years after the death of the last abbot in 1558, Count Philip III. von Hanau- Munzenberg bought the Naumburg Monastery for 18,000 florins in 1561 from the Limburg ad Haardt Monastery . It now formed the Naumburg winery within the county of Hanau-Munzenberg. As a result of the tensions with Friedberg Castle, the Naumburg feud broke out after the purchase from 1564 to 1569 , which is also mentioned in the annals as the “hay warfare” because the dispute was sparked by the right to collect the hay tithes. The settlement that ended the feud in 1569 awarded the sovereignty of Naumburg to the Counts of Hanau .
In the Thirty Years' War Naumburg was occupied by the imperial family from 1629 to 1631, which led to the Seligenstadt monastery taking possession of Naumburg due to the edict of restitution . This happened unlawfully because the Hanau counts had legally acquired the dilapidated monastery in 1561 and had the purchase confirmed by the count palatine as patron of the Limburg monastery. After the imperial troops withdrew, it was reoccupied by Hanau.
The Naumburg office was part of an estate that was pledged in 1643 by the County of Hanau to the Landgraviate of Hessen-Kassel . This was due to financial demands from Hessen-Kassel to the County of Hanau-Münzenberg, which arose on the occasion of the liberation of the city of Hanau by troops of the Landgraviate in 1636 and the help of the Landgraviate for Count Friedrich Casimir von Hanau-Lichtenberg , so that he inherited his legacy in 1642 , the County of Hanau-Munzenberg, actually received it against the opposition of numerous neighbors. The deposit was no longer released. 1736, after the death of the last Hanau count, Johann Reinhard III. , the entire county of Hanau-Munzenberg fell to Hesse-Kassel, but was for 50 years as a secondary school for younger princes of the House of Hesse-Kassel, first for Wilhelm (VIII.) 1736–1751, then for Wilhelm IX. Used from 1760–1786. During this time, the Naumburg winery remained outside of this secondary school with the Landgraviate of Hessen-Kassel. It was not until 1786 that the Naumburg winery was reintegrated into the Hesse-Kassel county of Hanau, whose fate it now shared: in 1803 the Landgraviate of Hesse-Kassel was elevated to the status of the Electorate of Hesse . During the Napoleonic period, the winery was under French military administration from 1806, belonged to the Principality of Hanau from 1807 to 1810 , and then from 1810 to 1813 to the Grand Duchy of Frankfurt , Department of Hanau . Then it fell back to the Electorate of Hesse. After the administrative reform of the Electorate of Hesse in 1821, during which the Electorate of Hesse was divided into four provinces and 22 districts, the winery was incorporated into the newly formed Hanau district . This in turn went up in the course of the regional reform in Hesse in the Main-Kinzig district .
