Münster is a district of Laubach in the central Hessian district of Gießen and is located about eight kilometers west of the city center. The name comes from monasterium (= monastery) and thus indicates a settlement of monks.

history

Münster was first mentioned in 1118 under the name Munstere . Further mentions were (in brackets the year of the mention):

  • Munstere , in (1118/1137) [cop. XIV Mainz Document Book 1, No. 616]
  • Munstre , in (1197) [Marburg State Archives Documents 18 Spieskappel Monastery, Vidimus Wenck, Hessische Landesgeschichte 2.1 Document book no. 90, pp. 125–128]
  • monstere , in villa (1239) [Eigenbrodt, documents 1836, no. 2S. 286]
  • Monster , zu (1462) [Solmser Documents 2, No. 1461]
  • Moenster , zu (1481) [Müller, Ämter im Kreis Gießen, p. 192]

As part of the regional reform in Hesse , the municipality of Münster was incorporated into the city of Laubach on December 31, 1970 on a voluntary basis . For the Münster district, as for the other incorporated, formerly independent municipalities of Laubach, a local district with a local advisory council and local head was set up in accordance with the Hessian municipal code.

church

The Evangelical Church of Münster

The late Gothic three-aisled hall church was essentially built around 1300. Only the stone pulpit and spire date from the 16th century. The font from the first half of the 13th century is the oldest element of the church.

Territorial history and administration

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

Courts since 1803

In the Landgraviate of Hesse-Darmstadt , the judicial system was reorganized in an executive order of December 9, 1803. The “Hofgericht Gießen” was set up as a court of second instance for the province of Upper Hesse . The jurisdiction of the first instance was carried out by the offices or landlords and so from 1806 the “Patrimonial Court of the Princes Solms-Braunfels” in Lich was responsible for Münster. The court court was the second instance court for normal civil disputes, and the first instance for civil family law cases and criminal cases. The second instance for the patrimonial courts were the civil law firms. The superior court of appeal in Darmstadt was superordinate .

With the founding of the Grand Duchy of Hesse in 1806, this function was retained, while the tasks of the first instance 1821–1822 were transferred to the newly created regional and city courts as part of the separation of jurisdiction and administration. From 1822 the princes of Solms-Hohensolms-Lich let the Grand Duchy of Hesse exercise their court rights on their behalf. “ Landgericht Lich ” was therefore the name of the court of first instance that was responsible for Münster. The prince also waived his right to the second instance, which was exercised by the law firm in Hungen. It was only as a result of the March Revolution in 1848 that the special rights of the civil servants became final with the “Law on the Relationships of Classes and Noble Court Lords” of April 15, 1848 canceled.

On the occasion of the introduction of the Courts Constitution Act with effect from October 1, 1879, as a result of which 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, the name was changed to "Lich Local Court" and allocation to the district of the regional court of Giessen . On January 1, 1882, Münster was handed over to the Laubach District Court . On July 1, 1968, the Laubach District Court was dissolved and Münster was added to the district of the Gießen District Court . Now the superordinate instances are the regional court of Giessen , the higher regional court of Frankfurt am Main and the Federal Court of Justice as the last instance.
