history

The existence of Leyh can be proven until the 15th century. There are several meanings for the name of the place ( zum Lay , vom Ley , Layh , etc.). These derive the place name from either swamp, wood or rock.

Towards the end of the 18th century there were 8 properties in Leyh. The high court exercised the Brandenburg-Ansbach Oberamt Cadolzburg , but this was disputed by the imperial city of Nuremberg . The landlords were the Deutschordenskommende Nürnberg (1 tavern) and the Nuremberg owners of Behaim (1 half-yard), von Ebner (2 half-yards) and vonöffelholz (4 half-yards). The landlords exercised the village and community rule together. In 1800 there were 7 properties in the village.

As part of the parish edict, Leyh was assigned to the Höfen tax district formed in 1808 . It also belonged to the rural community of Höfen , which was founded in the same year . In voluntary jurisdiction, 4 properties were subordinate to the Patrimonial Court (PG) Gibitzenhof from 1825 to 1835 , 1 property from 1823 to 1835 to the PG Leyh and 2 properties from 1822 to 1836 to the PG Weikershof .

Leyh was incorporated into the city of Nuremberg in 1899.
