Kleindornheim
Kleindornheim is a desert area in the Iphöfer district of Dornheim in the Lower Franconian district of Kitzingen .
Geographical location
Kleindornheim is located about 1000 m southeast of the Catholic Church in Dornheim. There the road ran between the village and the so-called Fischhof . During the Middle Ages and the early modern period, this was the place where the village's wood stocks were stored. Today the Schenkensee natural monument is located in the south of the deserted area . To the north, the KT 3 district road runs towards Altmannshausen in the Neustadt an der Aisch-Bad Windsheim district .
history
The history of Kleindornheim is closely linked to that of Dornheim. Probably both settlements were founded on the same area . Kleindornheim was probably the older of the two settlements. There was the King's Church of St. Remigius , which was no longer mentioned in later sources about today's Dornheim. Kleindornheim was the oldest parish in the area, dating back to the 7th century.
Kleindornheim was first mentioned in 1023, after that of Dornheim. Perhaps the Dornheim subsidiary had overtaken the older village. In 1023 Emperor Heinrich II enfeoffed the diocese of Würzburg with the wild ban in the western Steigerwald. “Parvum Dornheim” (Klein-Dornheim) was one of the villages mentioned. "Wengen Dornheim" was mentioned again in 1320, when the Münsterschwarzach monastery sold the village tithing to the knight Friderico dicto Mufelger.
