history
middle Ages
The oldest surviving mention of Metzlos-Gehaag can be found in a fiefdom from Hermann II. Riedesel zu Eisenbach from June 9, 1450, in which he enfeoffed the brothers Rupel and Contze Stoltze with half of the settlement Atzelngehauw as a fief . From the years 1463 and 1478, two further fiefdoms from the Riedesel to members of the Stoltz family resident in Brückenau , who in return for the enfeoffment with half of Metzlos-Gehaag had to do military service to the Riedesel zu Eisenbach. The place is written in these documents Atzelngehauw or Atzelngehauwe .
From the time it was first mentioned until the beginning of the 19th century, the village was always under the rule of the Riedesel family. Together with Gunzenau , Metzlos , Nieder-Moos and Ober-Moos, it belonged to the Moos court , whose mayor had its seat in Nieder-Moos. The Moos court belonged to the Lords of Blankenwald, a sideline of the Lords of Schlitz , until 1338 , and then came to the Lords of Eisenbach as a fiefdom of the Electoral Palatinate . With their extinction in the male line, the property fell to the Riedesel in 1428.
The localities of the court were devastated and destroyed in the Fulda collegiate feud in 1467. The court was not restored until 1482. From 1715, the Moos court was administered together with the Freiensteinau court by a Riedeselian official based in the Freiensteinau court .
Early modern age
A Riedeselisches directory of the year wood from 1573 names 20 authorized persons in Metzelngehauk . The place name Metzelsgehaus is written on a map of the Riedeselland from 1582 . Over time, the spelling gradually became similar to that of the neighboring Metzlos.
In 1540 a school was set up in Nieder-Moos for the first time, which was also attended by children from the other branches of the parish. Metzlos-Gehaag only got its own school in 1735. Classes were initially held in a small, shingled half-timbered house, the old schoolhouse , which was demolished in 1979 , in the center of the village on Moosbach.
During the Thirty Years War in 1629 the plague raged in Moosgrund, which was brought in by troops passing through.
In Metzlos-Gehaag, the Riedesel'schen ordinances from the 18th century were considered particular law . The Common Law applied only to the extent those regulations did not contain provisions. Theoretically, this special right retained its validity even while it belonged to the Grand Duchy of Hesse in the 19th century, but only individual provisions were used in judicial practice. The particular law was replaced on January 1, 1900 by the civil code that was uniformly valid throughout the German Empire .
On July 24th, 1796 there was a severe hailstorm that destroyed almost the entire harvest in Metzlos-Gehaag and Bannerod. This event is still remembered as a pebble day in both villages .
Modern times
In 1804, 23 settler families from Metzlos-Gehaag and Stockhausen as well as the northern Taunus founded the village of Dillingen , a district of Friedrichsdorf im Taunus since 1916 .
As a result of the mediatization at the end of the Holy Roman Empire of the German Nation in 1806, the knighthood of the Barons Riedesel zu Eisenbach was incorporated into the Grand Duchy of Hesse . Metzlos-Gehaag has been in Hesse since that year and was initially administered as part of the Freiensteinau office. After the new Hessian municipality and district regulations came into force in 1821, Metzlos-Gehaag initially belonged to the Herbstein District (from 1825 Lauterbach District). In 1848 the village became part of the short-lived Alsfeld administrative district and after its dissolution in 1852 it became part of the Lauterbach district .
Due to the low number of local residents, the municipality of Metzlos-Gehaag did not initially have its own mayor, but instead formed a joint mayor's office with Metzlos and Nieder-Moos . Between 1875 and 1885 a local citizen from Metzlos-Gehaag was mayor of the three communities. It was not until 1913 that Metzlos-Gehaag received its own mayor.
In 1823, the still existing community Backhaus and built from 1845 to 1847, the first stone bridge over the Moosbach. In 1900 a new school building was built and in 1911 a central water pipe was built. Metzlos-Gehaag has been supplied with electricity since 1923.
In the First World War , Metzlos-Gehaag had 6 dead and 2 missing. In the Second World War there were also 6 dead and 5 missing.
Politically, like the entire Vogelsberg region, Metzlos-Gehaag was shaped in the late Empire by the anti-Semitic movement and in the Weimar Republic initially by the Hessian farmers' union. At the beginning of the 1930s, National Socialism was implemented with the establishment of a local NSDAP group (beginning of 1932), which extended its catchment area to the neighboring villages in Moosgrund.
After the Second World War, the water pipe was renewed between 1951 and 1953 and a new fire station was inaugurated in 1953 . In 1954 the local sewer system was built. Between 1961 and 1969, land consolidation was carried out in the Metzlos-Gehaag district . The village community center was built in 1965–1966 .
Territorial reform in Hesse
Even after the founding of the large community Grebenhain on December 31, 1971 as a result of the regional reform in Hesse , the community of Metzlos-Gehaag initially remained independent for a few months. It was not until August 1, 1972 that it was incorporated into the Grebenhain community and at the same time into the newly formed Vogelsberg district. The one-class elementary school in town had to be closed in 1968 as a result of the school reform in Hesse in favor of the new central school ( Oberwaldschule ) in Grebenhain.
After the regional reform came into force, the local thoroughfare and the district road were expanded from 1976 to 1977 , the underground cabling of the electricity network in 1987 and the construction of a communal sewage treatment plant for the districts of Heisters, Metzlos, Metzlos-Gehaag, Wünschmoos and Zahmen from 1994 to 1996 .

In 1528 the Reformation was introduced in the newly founded parish. Metzlos-Gehaag was purely Protestant until 1945. In 1946, numerous families of Catholic expellees from the Sudetenland were sent to the village.

Economy and Infrastructure
Resident Entrepreneurs
The former main plant of robbe Modellsport GmbH & Co. KG, which went bankrupt in 2015, is located directly on the road from Metzlos-Gehaag to Metzlos . The nucleus of this company was the local birch mill, which was converted into a sawmill at the beginning of the 20th century. In 1921 the mill and sawmill were owned by Robert Becker from Oberkirch in Baden . In 1958, his son Hubert Becker started manufacturing model toys. In 1971 he gave up the sawmill and from then on concentrated exclusively on the development and production of radio-controlled models of cars, ships and, above all, aircraft (→ RC model making ). In 1981 Hubert Becker sold the company to the Cologne-based Schwarzhaupt group of companies for health reasons . After extensive outsourcing of the actual production, Robbe Modellsport still employed around 100 people at the Metzlos-Gehaag location in 2012. The company filed for bankruptcy on February 6, 2015 . Subsequent efforts to reorganize and continue with a new investor were unsuccessful. On May 1, 2015, the insolvency proceedings for Robbe Modellsport were initiated and the liquidation of the company began. The trademark rights were taken over by AvioTiger, a company based in Munich, which was newly founded by some previous robbe employees. Every year a race with Robbe model cars takes place on a racetrack above the former factory site. Since 2019, three halls of the business park have been rented to different companies.
Wind farm
Since 2013, a wind farm with originally up to eight and finally three wind turbines in the districts of Zahmen, Metzlos-Gehaag and Metzlos near the border with the district of Fulda has been in the planning stage. It was supposed to be operated by HessenEnergie, a subsidiary of OVAG . However, due to the deletion of the local priority area Werschbach from the subregional energy plan for Central Hesse at the end of 2016, the wind farm could no longer be realized, which is why the planning was discontinued.
traffic
The district road 250 leads through Metzlos-Gehaag from Nieder-Moos to the district border near Zahmen.
Mobile
The place does not have a cellular network. The business park has high-speed internet, but the place has a very slow internet connection.
