Lengefeld is a district of the municipality of Anrode in the north-eastern part of the Unstrut-Hainich district in Thuringia . On January 1, 1997 Lengefeld lost the status of an independent municipality.
The place name Lengefeld (also Melschlengefeld, von Milchlengefeld) is easy to confuse with Lengenfeld unterm Stein (Steinlengenfeld) with the same zip code 99976, only about 20 km away . The Luhne , a tributary of the Unstrut, flows through Lengefeld .
history
The place was first mentioned in a document in 897 . Lengefeld is separated from Eichsfeld by the Mühlhäuser Landgraben . Historically, Lengefeld belonged to the area of the Free and Imperial City of Mühlhausen . In 1565 there was a population of 60 in Lengefeld.
In 1802 Lengefeld fell together with Mühlhausen to the Kingdom of Prussia , from 1807 to 1813 to the Kingdom of Westphalia ( Canton Dörna ) created by Napoleon and was assigned to the district of Mühlhausen in the Prussian province of Saxony after the Congress of Vienna in 1816 .

Traditions
Every year on the first weekend in November there is a fair in Lengefeld . From July 27th to 29th, 2007, the Thuringia- wide well-known Landeskirmesburschentreffen - LKBT for short - took place in Lengefeld . For the 10th anniversary of this major event, well over 160 funfair and traditional costume associations from all over Thuringia came to celebrate this festival. The planning had continued since the last meeting in 2006.
Others
- As evidence of an often coarse folk humor, neck names and nicknames that characterize each village developed centuries ago . According to this, the Lengefeld mountain pines lived here in the village - because of the clayey soil and the conspicuous corridor. After the rain, the ground stuck to the shoes and formed pines .
The nickname of the place Milch-Lengefeld is probably to explain the linguistic delimitation of Stein-Lengenfeld in connection with the milk worms living in the neighboring village .
According to a chronicle of the city of Mühlhausen from the MA, Lengefeld near Ammern was referred to as Mühlhäuser Lengefeld. In the course of the years this was probably changed linguistically in Mühlsch-Lengefeld. This designation has nothing to do with the word milk, as is often assumed.
