history

Until the end of the 18th century Moritzreuth was under the sovereignty of the Principality of Bayreuth . The village and community rulership, which is decisive for the sovereignty of the Franconian region, was exercised by the Bayreuth city bailiff in its function as bailiff's office . The high jurisdiction over the place took this office in its role as Fraischamt also.

In 1791/1792 the last margrave of the Franconian Zollern line , Karl Alexander , renounced his domains in exchange for a life annuity and handed them over to the main royal line of the Hohenzollern rulers in Berlin . These incorporated these areas into the Prussian Kingdom and summarized them as Ansbach-Bayreuth . The administration was transferred to the governor Karl August von Hardenberg , who resided in Ansbach . After the Prussian defeat in the Fourth Coalition War , Moritzreuth and the entire Principality of Bayreuth were placed under a military administration set up by the French Empire in 1807 . After the Kingdom of Bavaria had bought the principality in 1810 , Moritzreuth became Bavarian.

As a result of the administrative reforms in the Kingdom of Bavaria at the beginning of the 19th century , Moritzreuth became part of the independent rural community of Hinterkleebach with the second municipal edict in 1818 , which also included the village of Muthmannsreuth , the hamlet of Weiglathal and the two deserted areas of Moritzmühle and Neumühle . In the course of the municipal territorial reform in Bavaria in the 1970s, Moritzreuth was incorporated together with the municipality of Hinterkleebach on May 1, 1978 into the Hummeltal municipality, which was newly formed in 1971. In 2019 Moritzreuth had 36 inhabitants.
