history

Leonrod (possibly from Old High German hleo, hlewes , burial mound) was first mentioned in 1218 as "Lewenrode" and was the village near the Ganerbeburg . Leonrod developed from three originally independent locations that have grown together to form Leonrod. These were the "Heylingsdorff", "Heiligendorf" or "Seeligendorff" north of the Bibert and the "Moosdorf" south of the Bibert. Heylingsdorff was first mentioned in a document around 1700, but documents with the place name Seeligendorf appeared again and again in the 18th century. A local chapel was reported in a document from 1739 . Moosdorf should have been where the inn is today. Beer was also brewed in the inn until 1923.

On the south-western edge of the village are the ruins of Leonrod , a castle of the von Leonrod family . The moated castle , built in the 13th century, survived the Thirty Years' War unscathed and burned down in 1651 when the scrub in the moat was to be burned. The castle is owned by a community of heirs that goes back to the family , which died out in 1951 .

Leonrod was originally subject to two neck courts , the part south of the Bibert belonged to Ansbach, the northern part to Markt Erlbach .

At the end of the 18th century there were 25 households in Leonrod. The high court exercised the Brandenburg-Bayreuth municipal bailiff's office in Markt Erlbach . The village and township government had the box office Dietenhofen held. The landlords were the Kastenamt Dietenhofen (24 properties: 1 brewery, 1 courtyard, 15 estates, 7 houses) and the Neudorf manor (Leonrod ruin with hunter's house). From 1797 to 1810 the place was subordinate to the Justice Office Markt Erlbach and Chamber Office Neuhof . From 1797 to 1806, the Jägerhaus was under the jurisdiction of the Ansbach Justice and Chamber Office .

In 1810 Leonrod came to the new Kingdom of Bavaria . As part of the municipal edict, it was assigned to the Dietenhofen tax district formed in 1811 . In 1813 the rural community Ebersdorf was formed, to which Leonrod also belonged. With the second community edict (1818) Leonrod broke up and formed an independent rural community. It was subordinate to the regional court of Markt Erlbach in administration and jurisdiction and to the Ipsheim Rent Office in the financial administration . One property was under the Neudorf patrimonial court until 1833 . From 1862 Leonrod was administered by the Neustadt an der Aisch district office (renamed Neustadt an der Aisch district in 1938 ) and from 1856 by the Markt Erlbach rent office (1920–1929: Markt-Erlbach tax office , from 1929: Fürth tax office ). The jurisdiction remained until 1879 with the district court of Markt Erlbach, 1880–1959 district court of Markt Erlbach , from 1959 district court of Fürth . The community had an area of ​​2.130 km².

On July 1, 1969, before the regional reform in Bavaria , they were incorporated into Dietenhofen.

coat of arms

Leonrod has had a coat of arms designed in 1940 since May 20, 1948. The blazon reads: In silver over blue waves, a red castle with battlements and a gate tower crowned with battlements between two gabled houses; in the gate a silver shield with a red bar.

The heraldically simplified moated castle and the little shield with the noble coat of arms indicate the family of the barons of Leonrod, who later belonged to the Frankish imperial knighthood, intertwined with the place through the name and immemorial property.

religion

The place has been Protestant since the Reformation. The residents of the Evangelical Lutheran denomination are parish to St. Andreas (Dietenhofen) , the residents of the Roman Catholic denomination to St. Bonifatius (Dietenhofen) .

The district road AN 24 leads past the Stolzmühle to Ebersdorf (1.8 km northwest) or to Dietenhofen (1.4 km east). Communal roads lead to Neudorf (1.4 km north), to Rüdern (1.2 km south) and to Dietenhofen (1.4 km east).

Between June 1, 1915 and September 26, 1971, the Bibertbahn ran through the local area, and a stop was set up in the village for the winter timetable 1931/32 .
