history
The village was probably first settled in the course of the Frankish conquest in the 6th century AD as the "home of Herno". The place did not appear in the sources until the 12th century. In 1155 Eispertus de Sovvensheim (Seinsheim) handed over his farms in “Hernesheim” and Seinsheim to the Bamberg Benedictine monastery on the Michelsberg . Around 1300, the place as an imperial village and part of the imperial estates "under the mountains" should only have been subordinate to the emperor. Today it is assumed that the head of the empire only held the bailiwick over property of the Würzburg bishops.
For a long time, Herrnsheim and seven other villages had a share in the so-called Kunigunden Forest , which was administered as a market cooperative . This form of administration was only dissolved in 1458.
In trouble, King Albrecht I of Habsburg pledged Herrnsheim to Albert von Hohenlohe in 1302. The village received further funding from Erkinger I. von Seinsheim, Freiherr von Schwarzenberg . He acquired the place in 1435. The later princes of Schwarzenberg did not receive sole rule of the village until 1485, when Count Friedrich IV. Zu Castell waived his right to resell.
The Schwarzenbergs sponsored their new acquisition. In 1583, Herrnsheim was granted market rights with a Sunday market after Jakobi. At the same time, the village was given its own seal. At this point the village had already adopted the Evangelical Lutheran doctrine. During the Thirty Years' War there were frequent changes of denomination. Only in 1664 was it possible to agree in the Kitzinger Rezess on a joint use of the local church by Catholics and Lutherans.
Since 1978, Markt Herrnsheim has been part of the municipality of Willanzheim, which was only given the title Markt because of the market location itself .
coat of arms
|
|
Blazon : “Split by red and silver; in front on a green three-mountain a silver pinnacle tower; in the back the standing, golden nimbly Saint John the Baptist in a black fur coat, in the right the golden baptismal shell, in the left a golden book; to the right behind him an upright black cross with a red pennant. " |
| Justification of the coat of arms: The coat of arms goes back to a seal from 1583. The colors red and silver refer to the Duchy of Franconia, in which the place was for centuries. The tower possibly refers to the fortified church in Markt Herrnsheim. With John the Baptist the church patron of the place is represented. |
Attractions
The largest building in the village is the Simultankirche St. Martin. It is located in the middle of a well-preserved fortified church from the 13th century. The church itself has a Romanesque tower, it was provided with a French dome in 1761. Around the year 1400 the early Gothic tabernacle was placed in the choir of the church, the baptismal font has the shape of a chalice and dates from 1607. A bell from the 13th century is considered to be the oldest in the region.
In 2004 there was a so-called calibration fountain in Herrnsheim . It was created as early as 1524 and underwent frequent changes in later centuries. The well was the place where the hosts' vessels were checked for size. The fountain was renewed in 1674, 1774, 1802 and 1889, and later even moved. High water marks were also attached here .
