Lämmerspiel is a district of Mühlheim am Main in the Offenbach district in southern Hesse .

Geographical location

The district is located on the Rodau south of Mühlheim and is surrounded by forests. Neighboring are the Obertshausen district of Hausen and Obertshausen itself, the Offenbach district of Bieber , today's mother city Mühlheim, the Mühlheim district of Dietesheim and the Hanau district of Steinheim .

Surname

The name "Lammerspiel" has nothing to do with "lambs" , because the place was called Limares villa as early as the 11th century . Liumar or Liemar were personal names . Other traditional place names are: "Limmersbugil" (1339), "Limesbuer" (1290) and "Lymnisbohel" (1371). Another interpretation of the name “Lammerspiel” is “Limar Bühl”, which means clay hill. The occurrence of the heavy clay soil in Lammerspiel is clear. For this reason, historical houses do not have a basement here. New buildings are placed in tubs so that the water cannot penetrate the cellar wall as it does not seep away.

history

middle Ages

In the Middle Ages , Lammerspiel belonged to the Biebermark . The surrounding forests belonged to the Dreieich Wildbann . In the 12th century, the Fulda monastery acquired property in Lammerspiel.

Lammerspiel was in the office of Steinheim , which initially belonged to the Lords of Eppstein and, from 1371, as a pledge, half each to the Counts of Katzenelnbogen and the Lords of Hanau . In 1393 the pledge came to the Lords of Kronberg . In 1425 Gottfried von Eppstein sold the Steinheim office to the Electorate of Mainz .

Modern times

In the years 1631–1634, during the Thirty Years War , King Gustav II Adolf confiscated the office as spoils of war and endowed the later Hanau Counts Heinrich Ludwig von Hanau-Münzenberg (1609–1632) and Jakob Johann von Hanau-Münzenberg (1612–1636) ) who were allied with him. Since both counts died soon and the Peace of Westphalia changed to the normal year 1624, Lämmerspiel returned to Kurmainz, where it remained until 1803, when it fell to the Landgraviate of Hessen-Darmstadt , the later Grand Duchy of Hesse , in the course of secularization .

In 1819 the place received a portion of the market area , which was now communal forest .

On 1 January 1977. Lämmerspiel was in the course of administrative reform in Hesse in the city Mühlheim provincial law incorporated .
