Laibarös is a village with 139 inhabitants in Franconian Switzerland .
Laibarös belongs to the Upper Franconian municipality of Königsfeld in the Bamberg district and is located about 20 kilometers east of Bamberg .
geography
Laibarös is about 20 kilometers east of Bamberg in the direction of Bayreuth on the Franconian Jura at an altitude of 470 m above sea level. NN .
Neighboring towns are Tiefenellern (municipality of Litzendorf ), Neudorf (town of Scheßlitz ), Poxdorf , Huppendorf , Voitmannsdorf (all municipality of Königsfeld), Hohenpölz , Geisdorf , Herzogenreuth and the Heroldsmühle (all of Markt Heiligenstadt ).
Hiking trails
The Jura line of the Main-Donau-Weg , which leads from Staffelstein to Regensburg , and the Frankenweg run through the village . From Laibarös these hiking trails lead in a southerly direction through the Leinleitertal to Heiligenstadt , in a northerly direction over the pilgrimage church Gügel and the Giechburg to Scheßlitz .
In Laibarös, the dry valley begins with karst springs and the tumblers and leads to the Heroldsmühle with a large iron mill wheel.
Water supply
Laibarös was a water emergency area until 1958. The karst soil did not stop the water. So it happened that rainfalls seeped away relatively quickly. In the summer months it happened often enough that the village well dried up and the inhabitants of the village had to fetch water with barrels from neighboring villages.
After water was found in test bores at a depth of 90 meters, the water association Poxdorfer Gruppe was founded, which has been supplying the villages of Huppendorf , Laibarös, Poxdorf , Hohenpölz and Brunn with water ever since.
history
Surname
Around the year 700 Slavic settlers, the Wends , immigrated from the east . A relic of this time are place and field names of Slavic origin. These include the villages of Tiefenpölz , Hohenpölz , Laibarös and Treunitz .
The establishment of Laibarös could have coincided with the great wave of clearing in the 10th century. The name probably goes back to the Wendish name Ljuborod . This is supported by the emphasis on the place name on the last syllable. Laibarös was probably called Ljuboródze (village of Ljuborod). In the book The place names in Europe Laibarös is derived from Laub (forest) and reuth (clearing) and therefore means forest clearing; however, this name interpretation cannot be scientifically proven.
Ernst Schwarz gives the year 1310 for the first written mention of the name Leuberoz ; He also refers to the loan book of Bishop Albrecht von Wertheim , in which the name Lewbroz appears in 1409 .
If Laibarös had only emerged after the year 1000, it would no longer have been given a Wendish name. In 1007, Emperor Heinrich founded the Bamberg diocese to convert the Wends. In the course of Christianization , the Wendish language was pushed back more and more. From the 12th century at the latest, there seems to have been no more changes in the region.
Speculum Orbis Terrae
Noteworthy are the franc card by Cornelius de Jode from the Speculum Orbis Terrae , an atlas dedicated to Bishop Neidhard von Thüngen , and the copper engraving Franciae Orientalis Descriptio by Sebastian von Rotenhan from the 2nd half of the 16th century, in which Leibroß or . Leibros , but none of the surrounding villages - is shown - not even king field. These maps apparently served as a template for other maps of Franconia for over a hundred years, e.g. B. for the franc card Nova Franconiae Descriptio by Joannes Janssonius , published in Amsterdam in 1626 .
Peasant uprising of 1525
Interest and labor led to the peasant uprising of 1525. This distress led to reformatory efforts in the church. The villages of Königsfeld , Voitmannsdorf , Hohenpölz and Laibarös demanded on May 8, 1525:
- to preach the word of God loudly and clearly
- To have the Prince of Bamberg alone after God as a master
- the flowing water should be free
- Fetch construction and firewood from the forest and be allowed to graze in them at the usual time
- all game and birds should be free
- to give neither corporation tax nor customs
- of only having to give the 30th volume as tenth of the grain
- to abolish the little tithe, alive and dead, entirely
- To make hereditary interest and validity cheaper according to the value and property of the goods
- abolish hand wages
- to investigate complaints about the sheep drives so that the villages can keep their cattle
- To be able to accept their pastors themselves, every pastor must be learned
Affiliation
In the Middle Ages, Laibarös seems to have belonged to the Lords of Aufseß , from whom it came to the Andechs-Meranians and from these to the Counts of Truhendingen , before it passed to the bishopric of Bamberg .
The geographical description of the Archdiocese of Bamberg from 1833 says:
- "Laibarös, village with 26 houses and 144 souls, 1 hour southwest of Königsfeld, in the Hollfeld district court and the Burggrub patrimonial court ."
Politically, Laibarös belongs to the municipality of Königsfeld , where it has been parish for centuries. The Catholic residents go to church in the St. Laurentius and Heinrich Church in neighboring Hohenpölz , where the common cemetery is also located.
After the abbey was dissolved in 1802, Hollfeld became the seat of a Bavarian regional court. As a result, Laibarös came to the Ebermannstadt district office in the second half of the 19th century . It later belonged to the Ebermannstadt district and, together with Poxdorf, was an independent municipality before it was incorporated into Königsfeld as part of the regional reform in Bavaria in the 1970s and became part of the Bamberg district .
Until 1966, the school-age children in the village went on foot to the one-class elementary school in Hohenpölz, a typical dwarf school with a single teacher for eight school classes in two classrooms.
From 1966 on, the schoolchildren were taken to various school locations of the Königsfeld Association School by school bus. School locations were Königsfeld, Poxdorf, Hohenpölz, Treunitz and for a time also Drosendorf an der Aufseß . In Königsfeld, there is still the primary and the secondary school , secondary schools in Hollfeld , district Bayreuth .
chapel
The landmark of the village is the Maria Queen of Peace chapel, inaugurated in 1950 , the construction of which was started in 1947 by war returnees. It stands on a hill on the outskirts and catches the eye with its limestone facade.
regional customs
In the almost exclusively Catholic village, many, mostly religiously motivated, customs have been preserved.
- Easter fountain
The custom of decorating the Easter fountain had almost been forgotten before Reinhard Reinhard revived it in Heiligenstadt .
- Ratchets
During Holy Week , the children roam the village with ratchets to replace the church bells during prayer times, which are silent during this period.
- Parish fair
The parish fair takes place twice a year , for the patronage festival of the Maria Friedenskönigin chapel in May and in July to commemorate the inauguration of the church in 1949.
- Midsummer bonfire
The custom of the St. John's fire has a long tradition. On Midsummer Day , the children go through the village to collect fuel for the fire, which is lit on a hill in the evening.
- Pepper
On December 28th, the day of the innocent children , the boys walk through the village with willow branches to pepper the women and girls. On January 1st it is the turn of the girls.
- Gügel pilgrimage
Once a year the Laibars go on pilgrimage to the Gügel to commemorate the great downpour in 1791. About this natural disaster in recorded mayor Johann Dorsch from at Leinleiter located village Traindorf :
- “On August 18, 1791, near Lindach and Laibarös there was a large pouring of water with pebbles and rain. So the water comes down to Oberleinleiter, where it caused a lot of damage. First it tore down two barns and led them from their place so that one couldn't see where they stood and many houses were damaged and collapsed as a result. But the mill at Oberleinleiter took it away entirely. ... Such a large water has never been seen in man's memory ... "
