The small Lehnerzbach flows west of the village. The area north of Lehnerz and belonging to its 6.67 km² area is called Im Grund and is traversed by the Lehnerzgraben. The Lehnerzberg is located northwest of Im Grund as the southern flank of the Fulda-Haune-Tafelland . The district of Lehnerz also includes an area of ​​around 3 km² in the Michelsrombacher Wald (state forest of Fulda-Nord ), which is connected to the rest of the district by a narrow corridor. The highest point of the district is on the Mühlberg ( 435.2  m ) whose southern foothills are the Hummelskopf with the telecommunications tower Hummelskopf , and the lowest is in the Grund ( 297  m ).

history

Lehnerz was an independent municipality until 1972. Landmarks are the new church, consecrated in 1977, and the Grillenburg, built in 1887, which today houses a restaurant and hotel. It lies on the so-called "Esparküppel". In front of the Grillenburg there was a baroque pavilion on the hill. The Leipziger Hof, now a restaurant, is located on Leipziger Strasse, a former trade route between Frankfurt and Leipzig. The " White Tower " stood on this . The former watch tower is no longer preserved today.

Lehnerz is mentioned for the first time in a letter of inheritance from 1541 as "Lenters" = court of Lentrich or Caspar Ledenther. From 1802 to 1957 it belonged to the cathedral parish , from 1957 to 1963 it was a local chaplaincy , from 1963 to 1976 a parish curate and since 1976 it has been its own parish. The first church was built in 1923 on what is now the parking lot between the school and the Leipziger Hof and expanded from 1926 to 1928. After a new church was built in 1976/77, the old church was demolished. The cemetery, which is located on a small, built-up hill on the northeastern edge of Lehnerz, was laid out in the 1950s. The former mayor Ferdinand Reinhard, who died in 1953, was the first person to be buried in the cemetery. The cemetery hall (1981/82) and the Marienkapelle (built in the 1950s) are located on the site. Before that, the Lehnerzer were buried on Frauenberg.

The last place of execution in the city of Fulda was at the “Rabenstein”, about 200 meters east of today's cemetery. The last execution took place on November 21, 1856. An ancient burial mound from the Bronze Age is located northeast of the village.

On August 1, 1972, the previously independent municipality of Lehnerz was incorporated into the city of Fulda by state law as part of the regional reform in Hesse .
