history

The "tenant house"

Moischeid was first mentioned as Munescheiz in 1253 , when the knights Rudolph and Konrad Krug transferred the place they held as a fief from the Counts of Ziegenhain to the Haina monastery . The village was administered by the office of Schönstein . In the center of the village there was an aristocratic mansion, which was sold by the von Storck family in 1909 and whose main building, the so-called Old Castle , was demolished in 1956 due to its disrepair. Only the so-called “tenant house” still stands today.

The Kellerwaldbahn , opened in 1911 and shut down in 1972, ran in a loop south around the village, a train station was located between Moischeid and Gilserberg.

On January 1, 1974, the municipality of Moischeid lost its independence and, in the course of the regional reform in Hesse, became part of the greater municipality of Gilserberg by state law .
