Kohden , probably from Middle High German "Kote", which means Kötter , is a district of Nidda in the Hessian Wetteraukreis . It is located north of the core city of Nidda and is seamlessly connected to it.
history
The oldest known documentary mention of Kohden under the name Coden comes from the year 1187 . The village belonged to the county of Nidda , and so its history is closely linked to that of the Niddas. Count Berthold II of Nidda, himself a feudal lord of the Fulda Abbey , donated the parish of Nidda to the Order of St. John in 1187 with numerous properties and income from the near and far, including those in Kohden, as it is said, to redeem his sins and to Salvation of his parents' soul. This so-called Johanniter certificate shows that the residents of Kohden had to give the "small tithe " (tree and garden fruits) and 1 Malter oat to the Johanniter every year .
The Old Castle , however, are visible from the today only small remnants should, as early as the mid-12th century the by Emperor Frederick Barbarossa because of breach of the peace with the outlawed occupied Count Berthold I of Nidda as robber barons have served.
In 1205 the county of Nidda, and with it Kohden, fell by marriage and inheritance to the Counts of Ziegenhain . When Count Johann II von Ziegenhain and Nidda died childless in 1450, the two counties came to the Landgraviate of Hesse .
For the first time, an accurate picture of the legal situation in Kohden at that time can be derived from a sage book of the Nidda office , which was created under Landgrave Philip the Magnanimous (1504–1567). Thereafter Kohden was a village that belonged to the Nidda court and was therefore subordinate to the Landgrave of Hesse or his officials in Nidda. Specifically, was performed which tasks and Frondienste the Kohdener basic serfs had to do was with a clear distinction between those who owned a plow - a total of 8 - and those that were without Plow: 19. Most of the cultivated land that time seems to To have heard landgraves, but also the Johanniter commandery was wealthy at least until the introduction of the Reformation in the district of Kohden.
After the death of Philip the Magnanimous, the county of Nidda fell to Landgrave Ludwig IV of Hesse-Marburg in 1567 , and after his death in 1604 to the Landgrave of Hesse-Darmstadt .
In 1821 the now Grand Duchy of Hesse-Darmstadt , consisting of the provinces of Upper Hesse and Starkenburg , was divided into districts for better administration; Kohden with its approx. 360 inhabitants belonged to the district of Nidda in the province of Upper Hesse.
The statistical-topographical-historical description of the Grand Duchy of Hesse reports on Kohden in 1830:
"Kohden (L. Bez. Nidda) evangel. Branch village; lies on the Nidda, and 1 ⁄ 4 h from the city of Nidda. The place has 68 houses and 361 Protestant residents, among whom there are 42 farmers and 38 professionals, and among the latter there are 10 stalls. There is also a brick factory here. - The place takes its name from Kotten (salt sod). The earliest news about the salt works is from 1577, from which it is clear that it was mainly due to a lack of wood and because it did not cover the costs, but at that time it was left to someone by Dorneck. "
In 1874 there was again an administrative reform in the Grand Duchy of Hesse-Darmstadt: the districts were reorganized, the Nidda district was dissolved and added to the Büdingen district. At that time Kohden had about 420 inhabitants, mainly farmers, craftsmen and day laborers. Above all, the Kohden potters were known through their home community, who negotiated their goods with their own wagons as far as Butzbach, a day or two away, and in the eastern Taunus. The sales area extended as far as the Weiltal , and even today one can still find Kohden goods under the earthenware in peasant households there. Kohden “Dibbe” (pots) are now also on display in the Hessenpark open-air museum. The last Kohden kiln, it was in Bachgasse, was only demolished in 1983.
As part of the regional reform in Hesse , the previously independent municipalities of Bad Salzhausen, Borsdorf, Fauerbach bei Nidda, Geiß-Nidda, Harb, Kohden, Michelnau, Ober-Lais, Ober-Schmitten, Ober-Widdersheim, Stornfels, merged on December 1, 1970 Ulfa, Unter-Schmitten, Wallernhausen and the city of Nidda to form the new city of Nidda.

badges and flags
The municipality of Kohden only had its own coat of arms since August 4, 1961. At that time, the Hessian Minister of the Interior of the municipality of Kohden granted permission to use the coat of arms described below and the flag described below:
Blazon : "In gold on a beseiteten top of each a blue vine leaf red cross of St. John, a black heart sign with achtstrahligem silver star hung up."
Flag description: "On a wide white central track - each with a narrow red side track - placed the municipal coat of arms."
The vine leaves remind us that as early as 1329 there was talk of Kohden wine - Franconian and meaner - in a document. The Johanniterkreuz refers to the first documentary mention in the so-called Johanniterurkunde and the eight-pointed star to the former membership of Kohden in the county of Ziegenhain . No coat of arms is known from the time of the Counts of Nidda.
