history

Probably in 1015 gave Emperor Henry II. The monastery Michelsberg Bamberg many royal courts, as well as a part of the kingdom of good in Kirch Gons. The existence of a place with the name Kirchunnesse is documented for the period from 1145/53. In 1541, the Reformation was introduced with the first Protestant pastor, Ebert .

Kirch-Göns belonged to the part of the Hüttenberg office , a Nassau-Hessian condominium that fell to the Landgraviate of Hesse when it was divided in 1703 . Here it belonged to the Hessian office of Hüttenberg .

In 1803 the Landgraviate merged its areas north of the Main in the Principality of Upper Hesse (later: Province of Upper Hesse ), where Kirch-Göns was now also located, in 1806 the Landgraviate became the Grand Duchy of Hesse . This carried out an administrative reform in 1821, in which the Hüttenberg office was dissolved. The superordinate administration was now the district of Gießen , the competent court was the district court of Gießen .

The statistical-topographical-historical description of the Grand Duchy of Hesse reports on Kirch-Göns in 1830:

"Kirchgöns (L. Bez. Giessen) evangel. Parish village; is located on the Günsbach, as well as on the Chaussee that goes from Giessen to Frankfurt, 2 12 hours from Giessen, has 86 houses and 482 inhabitants, who are Protestant except for 16 Jews, then 1 church and 1 town hall. - The name of the Gönser Mark, like that of a village Göns ( Gunnissen , Gunnisheim ) is mentioned in very old news. In 1703 the place came from the community with Nassau-Weilburg, excluding Hesse. On July 15, 1815 51 buildings burned down here, for which the fire compensation 12,592 fl. 10 kr. amounted to."

Kirch-Göns belonged to the area of common law , which was valid here without the superimposition of particular law. This retained its validity even while the membership of the Grand Duchy of Hesse in the 19th century, until 1 January 1900 by the same across the whole German Reich current Civil Code was replaced.
