history

middle Ages

In 742 the place was called "Chrodoltesvillare". Krautweiler was bought from the knight Simunt Fürst by the Lords of Lichtenberg in 1343 and assigned to their office at Brumath . It was a fiefdom of the Elector and Archbishop of Mainz . It later formed a condominium in which the County of Hanau-Lichtenberg had a share of ¾.

Anna von Lichtenberg (* 1442; † 1474), one of Ludwig V's two heirs, married Count Philip I the Elder of Hanau-Babenhausen (* 1417; † 1480) in 1458, who had a small secondary school from the County of Hanau had received in order to be able to marry her. The county of Hanau-Lichtenberg came into being through the marriage . After the death of the last Lichtenberger, Count Jakob, one of Anna's uncle, Philip I d. Ä. In 1480 half of the Lichtenberg rule, the other half went to his brother-in-law, Simon IV. Wecker von Zweibrücken-Bitsch . The Brumath office was initially a condominium between Hanau-Lichtenberg and Zweibrücken-Bitsch. Under the government of Count Philip III. From Hanau-Lichtenberg there was then a real division: The Brumath office came entirely to Zweibrücken-Bitsch. In contrast, the Willstätt office , which also came from the Lichtenberg legacy and was a condominium between the two houses, was transferred entirely to the County of Hanau-Lichtenberg.

Modern times

However, there was another inheritance in 1570, which also brought the office of Brumath and thus the village of Krautweiler to the County of Hanau-Lichtenberg: Count Jakob von Zweibrücken-Bitsch (* 1510; † 1570) and his brother Simon V. Wecker , who had died in 1540, left behind only one daughter each as heiress. Count Jakob's daughter, Margarethe (* 1540; † 1569), was married to Philipp V von Hanau-Lichtenberg (* 1541; † 1599). The legacy resulting from this constellation also included the second half of the former rule of Lichtenberg, which was not already ruled by Hanau-Lichtenberg, and included the office of Brumath with Krautweiler. In 1570, the ruling Count of Hanau-Lichtenberg also carried out the Reformation in Krautweiler , in the Lutheran version.

Due to France's reunification policy , the Brumath office and the village of Krautweiler also fell under French sovereignty in 1680.

In 1717/1718 the Count of Hanau was able to use a patent letter from the French King Louis XV. buy the sovereign rights to the town of Brumath and the castle of the same name , the hunting rights of the Stephansfelder Hospital and the sovereign rights to the villages of Krautweiler, Gries , Waltenheim and Arnsberg Castle for 25,000 livres from Kurmainz. They were no longer fiefs, but allod . 1736 died with Count Johann Reinhard III. the last male representative of the Hanau family. Due to the marriage of his only daughter, Charlotte (* 1700; † 1726), with the Hereditary Prince Ludwig (VIII.) (* 1691; † 1768) of Hesse-Darmstadt , he inherited the county of Hanau-Lichtenberg. In the course of the French Revolution , the left bank of the County of Hanau-Lichtenberg - and thus also Krautweiler - fell to France.
