Lützelhausen is a district of the municipality of Linsengericht in the Main-Kinzig district in Hesse .

location

The village is located on the upper reaches of the Schandelbach , a tributary of the Kinzig , 180 m above sea ​​level and 4.3 km south of Gelnhausen.

history

The village was first mentioned in 1326. In the Middle Ages it belonged to the Altenhaßlau court , from which the Altenhaßlau office developed, which belonged to the Hanau rulership , later to the Hanau county and finally to the Hanau-Münzenberg county .

Around the year 1400, a large mine collapsed, in which iron and copper were extracted. Mining has left huge hollows in the area around the town to this day. Before and after the Reformation the village was parish in Altenhaßlau . The Reformation took the Reformed direction here - as in the entire county of Hanau-Munzenberg - after 1597 .

After the death of the last Hanau count, Johann Reinhard III. , 1736, Landgrave Friedrich I of Hessen-Kassel inherited the county of Hanau-Münzenberg and with it the village of Lützelhausen on the basis of an inheritance contract from 1643. In 1821 the village, now in the " Electorate of Hesse " called Hessen-Kassel, came to the newly formed district of Gelnhausen when a fundamental administrative reform was carried out there .

In 1908 Lützelhausen was connected to the water network, in 1920 to the electricity network . After the end of the Second World War , the plastics processing industry settled . Crafts also experienced an upswing during this period. From 1958 to 1960 an elevated tank was built on the mountain , a fire station in 1961 and a morgue in 1965 .

On December 31, 1971 Lützelhausen became a district of the municipality of Linsengericht. After the Hessian regional reform , Linsengericht-Lützelhausen belonged to the Main-Kinzig district from 1974 .

From 1972 a bypass road was built to relieve Lützelhausen. In the course of further road straightening work, the old school and the old town hall were demolished in 1977-78. The main facility in the village is the gymnasium . It was built in 1988/89 Auf dem Berg and has five modern tennis courts.
