Kolbenhof

Kolbenhof is a part of the market Thalmässing in Middle Franconian district of Roth in Bavaria .

location

The wasteland lies in the southern Franconian Alb to the left of the Thalach between Aberzhausen and Alfershausen on the rising valley slope about six kilometers northwest of Thalmässing. On the other side of the valley, opposite the Kolbenhof, the Weidlingsbachl flowing from the south flows into the Thalach.

The arable land is 43 hectares .

Place name interpretation

The place name is probably derived from "Kolbe" (the reed) as "thick stick".

history

At the end of the 19th century, a prehistoric sacrificial stone was found near the edge of the forest .

Kolbenhof, historically located on the border of the Palatinate-Neuburgian or electoral Palatinate-Baier territory to the Brandenburg-Margravial Ansbach, was first mentioned in 1137 when Willehalm de Kolbenroute appeared as a documentary witness under the Eichstätt Bishop Gebhard in donation matters of the Kaisheim monastery . In 1347 the homestead was handed down as "Kolbenhof", in 1489 as "Kolbenried", and on a Philipp Apian map from 1579 as "Kolbnhofen". In "Kolbenreut" there was a St. Koloman chapel, as the Heideck choir monastery invoice from 1620 shows; it is also shown on a map of the Heideck estate . Destroyed in the war between Margrave Albrecht Achilles and the Bavarian Duke Ludwig in 1460, it was not rebuilt. A hermit is said to have had his hermitage at the chapel. Nothing has survived from the chapel and the hermitage.

While in the 16th century the Kolbenhof was mentioned as a single property, the courtyard was probably divided into two properties in the 18th century. Because at the end of the Old Empire , around 1800, the wasteland consisted of two subject estates, which belonged to the Palatinate-Baier district judge Heideck as a manorial and thus lower court , while the high jurisdiction of the Heideck nursing office of the Electorate Palatinate-Baiern , succeeding Palatinate-Neuburg as sovereign was perceived. Ecclesiastically, the wasteland belonged to the Evangelical Lutheran parish of Alfershausen, where the children also went to school.

In the new Kingdom of Bavaria (1806) the wasteland with the church village of Aberzhausen and the village of Kippenwang was assigned to the tax district Laibstadt in the district court and rent office (from 1939 district) Hilpoltstein . When the community was formed in 1811/18, Aberzhausen and its districts became a rural community . In 1875 the 16 inhabitants of the wasteland kept three horses and ten head of cattle; today there is a cattle breeding operation in Kolbenhof. In the course of the municipal reform , Aberzhausen and Kippenwang were incorporated into Heideck, while the district of Kolbenhof joined the Thalmässing market on January 1, 1972.

Natural monument "1000-year old" linden tree

The "1000 year old" Kolbenhof linden tree

In the hamlet there is a legendary, so-called "1000-year-old" linden tree , also known as the "Kolbenhof linden tree ", exposed on the street . It has a trunk circumference of nine meters. The summer linden tree was possibly planted at the same time as the construction of the abandoned St. Koloman Chapel in the 11th / 12th. Century. Their actual age is unknown. It is estimated to be 400–500 years old. A bench is built into the trunk, which is now hollow and open on one side.

traffic

From the state road 2389, which runs in Thalachgrund, two communal roads lead up to the Kolbenhof. The street used to go right past the wasteland.

The Kolbenhof is touched by the 15 kilometer long west loop of the Thalmässinger Grenzwanderweg. In addition, hiking trail no. 6 of the Franconian Alb Association runs through Kolbenhof.
