history

overview

As finds in the district show, Lampertheim and its surroundings have been inhabited since the early Stone Age (3,000–2,000 BC). The Celts , who had been resident for centuries, were followed by the Teutons and a Roman occupation . A Roman burial ground, Roman bowls, fibulae and coins from the time of Emperor Domitian (81–96 AD) suggest that Lampertheim was a Roman camp. The first name forms handed down from the year 832, such as Langobardonheim or Langbardheim, initially suggested that the Longobards were founded. Today, however, there is hardly any doubt that Lampertheim arose during the Frankish settlement and is to be interpreted as the home of Lantberth "the country shimmering" (also Lampert or Lambert).

Hofheim was first mentioned in 991 in the Codex Edelini of the Weißenburg monastery . In 1422 three peninsulas, which are located opposite Worms in the strongly meandering Rhine, were named "Rosengarten".

Already 35 years earlier, half of the Stein (Worms) winery with its three districts of Lampertheim, Hofheim and Nordheim was pledged to the Electoral Palatinate in 1387 . This resulted in a double and often competing jurisdiction by the Bishop of Worms , to whose bishopric Lampertheim previously belonged completely, and the Elector of the Palatinate, "Count Palatine bey Rhein". Therefore Lampertheim came under the Schriesheim Central Court , which ruled on behalf of both gentlemen.

Regardless of this, the influence of the Electorate of the Palatinate prevailed in the long run, and around 1540 the Reformation was introduced in the newly rebuilt town - burned down in 1504 during the War of the Bavarian Succession .

The Thirty Years' War hit Lampertheim particularly hard: after the destruction in 1622 there were only 10 inhabitants - those of the others who had survived had fled to the fortified places in the area. Already 50 years after the end of the Thirty Years' War, the region had to suffer again from the consequences of the war when France tried to move its borders to the east through the Palatinate War of Succession . It was not until the Peace of Rijswijk in 1697 that the French withdrew behind the Rhine. In 1705 Lampertheim again fell fully under the territory of the Hochstift Worms . With the " Reichsdeputationshauptschluss " of February 25, 1803, the territorial conditions in the Reich were reorganized. The occasion was the conquests of Napoleon , who had extended the French state border to the Rhine. This last piece of legislation from the old empire implemented the provisions of the Treaty of Luneville , according to which the episcopal office ( cellar ) Lampertheim and with it the community came to the Landgraviate of Hessen-Darmstadt . During the Napoleonic Wars , under pressure from Napoleon in 1806, the Grand Duchy of Hesse was created , which incorporated the Landgraviate of Hesse-Darmstadt. The Grand Duchy of Hesse was a member state of the German Confederation from 1815 to 1866 and then a federal state of the German Empire . It existed until 1919, after the First World War, the Grand Duchy for was republican written People's State of Hesse . In 1945 after the end of the Second World War , the area of ​​today's Hesse was in the American zone of occupation and the state of Hesse was created within its current boundaries by order of the military government .

In 1716 the place received market rights and on August 2, 1951, city ​​rights .

The Riedbahn has been running through the community since 1879 . In the station Lampertheim a serious accident occurred on 12 August 1965: The TEA Helvetia clashed here with the non profile freestanding last car of a freight train and derailed . Four people died and many were injured.

In January 1992 there was an arson attack against the refugee accommodation in Lampertheim. A family of three from Sri Lanka was killed.

Historical descriptions

Half-timbered houses in the place

The statistical-topographical-historical description of the Grand Duchy of Hesse reports on Langenthal in 1829:

“Lampertheim (L. Bez. Heppenheim) market town; is on the border of the Grand Duchy of Baden, 3 St. from Heppenheim, has large wide streets with 454 houses and 2040 Evangel. Protest., 1042 Cath. And 79 Jews. There are 569 farmers and 146 artisans among the population. Lampertheim is the seat of the rent office, the forest inspector, the district forester and a border secondary customs office 2nd class, has 1 communal church, 1 town hall, 1 administrative building, 2 rectories, 3 schoolhouses, 1 tobacco factory, important peat cuttings and tree nurseries, in which many seedlings are raised ; a lot of tobacco is also grown. 3 markets are held annually. The place was formerly called Langobardonheim, belonged to the diocese of Worms and came to Hesse in 1802. "

and

“Lampertheimer Hütte (L. Bez. Heppenheim) Hof; belongs to Lampertheim; here is a border secondary customs office of the 2nd class. Opposite is the Baden portion of this farm. "

From The Grand Duchy of Hesse by history, country, people, state and locality from 1854:

"Lampertheim, Mrktfl. on the border between Hesse and Baden with a district of 17452 acres (8822 Acher, 2031 meadows, 5445 forest) and 4381 inhabitants, about 2/3 of which are Protestant and grow tobacco and grow fruit. Seat of a district collection, a rent office, a chief forester. The peat pits in its district are very productive. Every year 3 markets visited are held here. The name of the place is shortened from Langonbardonheim. It belonged to the diocese of Worms and came to Hessen in 1802. Half an hour away is the hamlet of Neuschloß with a chemical factory. Lampertheim also has two brick huts, a resin oven, the Rosengarten inn, the Biedensand island on the Rhine , the Lampertheimer Aue, Bonnenaue, the Beckerwörth, Ludwigswörth, Froschwörth and the Friedrichsaue. "

Time of world wars

On August 1, 1914, the First World War broke out and put an end to the positive economic development throughout the German Empire . When the armistice was signed after the German defeat on November 11, 1918, Lampertheim had 331 dead soldiers to mourn, while the war cost a total of around 17 million human lives. The end of the German Empire was thus sealed, and the troubled times of the Weimar Republic followed. In the period from 1921 to 1930, there were 566,500 emigrants in Germany who tried to escape the difficult conditions in Germany. On January 30, 1933, Adolf Hitler became Chancellor, which sealed the end of the Weimar Republic and the beginning of the National Socialist dictatorship. In the spring of 1933, Adolf Hitler made May 1 a public holiday called “German Labor Day”. In this way, a union demand was met by the government of all people, which the unions strictly opposed. The unions called for participation in the May events, as they felt they were the initiators of the May idea. The official program was already heavily influenced by the National Socialists: “6 o'clock wake up by the SA bands. 8 a.m. flag hoisting in the factories, march to the parade ground, 9 a.m. transmission of the rally from the pleasure garden in Berlin to the public squares of the cities. 10.45 am State act of the Hessian government (...), reception of a workers' delegation from the three Hessian provinces. (...) Common singing of the 'Song of the Workers'. (...) 7.30 am Transmission from the Tempelhofer Feld, Berlin: Manifesto of Reich Chancellor Adolf Hitler, 'The first year of the four-year plan'. Then light music and German dance. 12 noon: Broadcast of the speech by Prime Minister Hermann Göring. (...) Former Marxist singing, gymnastics and sports clubs can take part in the trains, but you must refrain from carrying Marxist flags or symbols. ”The rude awakening for the unions came a day later when the“ NSDAP took over the leadership of the red trade unions took over ":" The Marxist leaders since then in protective custody - a 3 million account of the former Reichstag President Löbe blocked - the rights of the workers secured - the buildings of the free trade unions occupied ", headlined the newspapers, which had already been harmonized throughout the Reich.

In Hesse, on July 3, 1933, the "Law for the implementation of field clearing for the purpose of creating jobs in the course of the redevelopment " was passed. In 13 municipalities in the Starkenburg province, including Lampertheim, the field clearing procedure was ordered over an area of ​​200,000 ha. In the course of this amelioration and settlement program, the two places Riedrode and Worms-Rosengarten were created .

In November 1938 the so-called Reichskristallnacht brought hardship and misery to the Jewish fellow citizens. The Lampertheim synagogue was burned down and the homes and businesses of Jewish families devastated. As early as 1933, part of the Jewish community, which at that time consisted of 86 people, had moved away or emigrated as a result of increasing reprisals. In connection with the November pogrom, almost all Jewish men were sent to the Buchenwald concentration camp for a few weeks . In 1942 the last nine Germans of Jewish faith still living in Lampertheim were deported to extermination camps. Of those who were born in Lampertheim or who had lived here for a long time, 42 died as a result of the Nazi tyranny.

On September 1, 1939, when German troops marched into Poland, the Second World War began , the effects of which were even more dramatic than the First World War and the number of victims is estimated at 60 to 70 million people. On the night of August 5th to 6th, 1941, there was a bombing raid on Lampertheim, in which over 20 people were killed and 29 people were wounded. Dozens of families were left homeless. From 1944 the intensified air war against Germany also made itself felt in Lampertheim. Large aviation associations flew over Lampertheim in their attacks on the surrounding industrial cities of Ludwigshafen, Mannheim or Worms. On the night of May 15-16, 1944, the Protestant church was destroyed by bombs. In that year, work in the fields became life-threatening due to the continued low-flying attacks. Nobody was safe on the train or on the streets either. In the final phase of the Second World War in Europe, the American units reached the Rhine between Mainz and Mannheim in mid-March 1945. The bridgeheads on the left bank of the Rhine could not be held by the weak German forces, which led to the demolition of the Rhine bridges at Worms, Nordheim and Gernsheim on March 20. The remnants of the German 7th Army, which had withdrawn to the right bank of the Rhine, had to leave almost all of their heavy equipment such as tanks and artillery behind, which made a continuation of the fighting with the absolute air supremacy of the Americans and the lack of any German reserves actually completely pointless. On the American side, the primary goal was now to avoid further losses, which led to the massive use of artillery, tanks and aircraft, even without precise knowledge of a possible counter-defense, on all cities and villages to be captured. If the advancing forces encountered resistance, there was an immediate retreat and massive use of the air force and artillery. On March 22nd, the 3rd US Army crossed the Rhine near Oppenheim and occupied Darmstadt on March 25th. From the American point of view, this made it necessary for the neighboring US 7th Army to move up quickly to secure its flanks. In preparation for their crossing of the Rhine, most of the Ried communities were shelled by American artillery on March 25th and on the night of March 26th. In all affected communities people were killed and property damage was caused to buildings. In the first hours of March 26, 1945, American troops crossed the Rhine near Hamm and south of Worms. The forces transferred at Worms took possession of the village of Rosengarten that night. To the east, the American units marched into Bürstadt in the early hours of the morning and advanced on today's B47 towards Lorsch. They advanced to the southeast in the direction of Lampertheim, with heavy fighting with units of the German Wehrmacht between Bürstadt and Lampertheim . Lampertheim itself was not defended, so that when the Americans marched in on the same day, no major damage was caused. After the capture of Lampertheim, the American tanks rolled on via Neuschloß towards Bergstrasse. On March 27, the American units were in Lorsch, Bensheim and Heppenheim and a day later Aschaffenburg am Main and the western and northern parts of the Odenwald were occupied. The war in Europe ended with the unconditional surrender of all German troops, which came into effect on May 8, 1945 at 11:01 p.m. Central European Time. Lampertheim had about 600 fallen or missing soldiers in this war.

Administration and courts

During the Hessian period, the responsible administrative units changed several times as a result of administrative reforms. At first the place belonged to the Lampertheim office . In 1821, as part of a comprehensive administrative reform, the district bailiffs in the provinces of Starkenburg and Upper Hesse of the Grand Duchy were dissolved and districts were introduced, with Lampertheim being assigned to the district of Heppenheim . As part of this reform, regional courts were also created that were now independent of the administration. For the district of Heppenheim, the Lorsch district court was the court of first instance. The seat of the court was deliberately separated from the seat of the district administrator in order to underline the independence of the judiciary.

In 1832 the administrative units were further enlarged and circles were created. With the reorganization announced on August 20, 1832, there should only be the districts of Bensheim and Lindenfels in the future in Süd-Starkenburg; the district of Heppenheim was to fall into the Bensheim district. Even before the entry into force in October 15, 1832 but this was revised to the effect that instead of the circle Lindenfels next to the circle Bensheim the county Heppenheim was formed as the second circle. Lampertheim was initially assigned to the Bensheim district, but when the area was reorganized in 1840, it became part of the Heppenheim district. In 1842 the tax system in the Grand Duchy was reformed and the tithe and the basic pensions (income from property) were replaced by a tax system of the kind that still exists today.

As a result of the March Revolution of 1848, with the "Law on the Relationships of the Classes and Noble Court Lords" of April 15, 1848, the special rights of the class were finally repealed. In addition, in the provinces, the districts and the district administration districts of the Grand Duchy were abolished on July 31, 1848 and replaced by "administrative districts", whereby the previous districts of Bensheim and Heppenheim were combined to form the administrative district of Heppenheim . Four years later, however, they returned to the division into districts, which resulted in the district of Bensheim and, temporarily, the districts of Lindenfels and Wimpfen again being created in addition to the Heppenheim district . Lampertheim now belonged to the Heppenheim district again.

In the statistics of the Grand Duchy of Hesse, based on December 1867, Lampertheim had its own mayor's office , 632 houses, 4776 inhabitants, the Heppenheim district, the Lorsch district court, the Protestant parish of Lampertheim of the Deanery of Zwingenberg and the Catholic parish of Lampertheim of the Deanery of Bensheim . The mayor's office also acquired the hamlet of Neuschloss (13 houses, 88 inh.), The Fialdorf Hüttenfeld (50 houses, 309 in.), The Rosengarten inn (2 houses, 21 in.) And the forester's house Wildbahn (1 house, 7 in .) managed.

On November 1, 1938, a drastic regional reform was carried out in the three provinces of Starkenburg, Rheinhessen and Upper Hesse. In Starkenburg, the Bensheim district was particularly affected. Most of it is added to the Heppenheim district, which also became the legal successor to the Bensheim district. The new administrative unit was renamed the Bergstrasse district . The municipalities of Lampertheim, Bürstadt , Hofheim and Biblis on the right bank of the Rhine were incorporated into the newly created Worms district, which emerged from the Worms district. With the redistribution of the federal states by the victorious powers of World War II after 1945, Rheinhessen west of the Rhine was added to the state of Rhineland-Palatinate and Lampertheim was integrated into the Bergstrasse district.

In 1961 the size of the district was given as 5145  ha , of which 2306 ha were forest.

With the formation of the regional courts in the Grand Duchy of Hesse, the Lorsch regional court in the Heppenheim district was the court of first instance from 1821 . On the occasion of the introduction of the Courts Constitution Act with effect from October 1, 1879, the previous grand-ducal Hessian regional courts were replaced by local courts in the same place, while the newly created regional courts now functioned as higher courts. This led to the renaming of the Lorsch District Court and allocation to the district of the Darmstadt District Court . On June 1, 1905, the District Court of Lampertheim was newly created, whose district includes the districts of Lampertheim with Hüttenfeld and Neuschloß, See-Hof (field mark), Biedensand (field mark), Viernheim and Wildbahn (forest mark).

The following list gives an overview of the territories in which Lampertheim was located and the administrative units to which it was subordinate:

Incorporations

As part of the regional reform in Hesse on October 1, 1971, the previously independent municipalities of Hofheim and Rosengarten were incorporated into Lampertheim. The formerly independent district Seehof was divided between the cities of Lampertheim and Lorsch.

Each one was for the districts of Hofheim, Hüttenfeld, Neuschloß and Rose Garden City district with town council and mayor set up. For this purpose, the formerly community-free land "Wehrzollhaus" was assigned to the Hofheim district, the formerly independent district "Wildbahn" and the formerly independent district "Seehof", as far as they were legally incorporated into the city of Lampertheim, the local district Hüttenfeld and the residential area " In the Ruthen "assigned to the Neuschloß district.

Outsourcing

On August 1, 1972, a part of the area with then around 40 inhabitants was assigned to the neighboring town of Lorsch.
