Klein-Zimmer is a district of Groß-Zimmer in the Darmstadt-Dieburg district in southern Hesse .

geography

In terms of its natural surroundings, Klein-Zimmer belongs to the Dieburger Basin , which opens north of the Odenwald and the Reinheim hill country towards the Main . The place is on a Gersprenzübergang the core city Groß-Zimmer opposite, just a few hundred meters from the right eastern bank of the river and on one of its side arms, the Katzengraben .

Klein-Zimmer borders on the Groß-Zimmer district in the west, on the Semd district of the city of Groß-Umstadt in the north and east, and on the Habitzheim district of the Otzberg district in the south . Last but not least, there is a short shared border with Spachbrücken in the south beyond the main course of the Gersprenz that belongs to the city of Reinheim .

According to the status of 1961, the district of Klein-Zimmer was 379 hectares. It extends in a north-south direction over three kilometers in length with a width of around 500 to 1000 meters around the location and takes the Katzengraben , the Gersprenz and the Landwehrgraben in the west as a natural border.

In 1961, 40 hectares of the municipality were considered forested. Since there is no forest near Klein -zimmer, the place had a share in the Dieburger Mark . All communities that originally belonged to Dieburger (Wald-) Mark used the forest area west of Dieburg on a cooperative basis until 1812. Extraction of firewood and construction timber, of tanneries and charcoal, as well as forest pasture, clearing and renaturation as well as all disputes were settled on a Märkerding that met in the open air near Dieburg, to which every local family sent a representative (Märker) and which was under the patronage of Archbishop of Mainz stood. In 1812 the cooperative was dissolved and the forest was divided among the participating communities depending on the number of Märker. Georgenhausen, for example, provided 46 Märker and therefore received 319 acres (around 40 hectares) of community forest , similar to Zeilhard and Klein -zimmer. The other maritime communities such as Spachbrücken were larger and got larger areas. For Klein-Zimmer it was corridor 1 in the Zeilharder Wald district , an exclave around seven kilometers northwest of the Klein-Zimmer district, which was incorporated into the Messel community in 1977 . It existed in a nearly 500 meter wide forest strip north of the Spachbrücker and Klein-Zimmerer border corridor and included the center of the fossil site of the Messel pit and the Messel pit housing estate south of the Messel train station on Roßdörfer Strasse .

history

In the Middle Ages, there were two of the 30 game drives of the Dreieich Wildbannes in Klein -zimmer , which also included the surrounding forests.

Klein-Zimmer was first mentioned in the early 14th century. These and other mentions have been preserved under the following place names Cleyntzymern (1338), Cleynen Zymern (1407), Cleynzymmern (1429), Kleynczymmern (1457) and Kleyn Zymer (1471). In the 17th century, the Elector of Mainz possessed all the glory of small rooms. In 1802 the place came to the Landgraviate of Hessen-Darmstadt . The higher-level administrative units were the "Mark Dieburg" in 1429, from 1787 the "Erzstift Mainz, Oberes Erzstift, Oberamt Steinheim, Amtsvogtei Dieburg", from 1820 the " Amt Dieburg " which belonged to the Starkenburg province of the Grand Duchy of Hesse from 1806 , from 1821 the " District District Dieburg ", from 1832 the" District Dieburg ", from 1848 the" District Dieburg ", from 1852 again the" District Dieburg ", from 1938 the District Dieburg and from 1977 the" District Darmstadt-Dieburg ".
