Location of the community of Neusitz in the district of Ansbach

Neusitz is a municipality in the Central Franconian district of Ansbach in Bavaria . It is a member of the Rothenburg ob der Tauber administrative community .

geography

Geographical location

The municipality of Neusitz stretches on the wooded western slope of the Frankenhöhe and at the foot of the slope on the open eastern Hohenlohe plain about 6.5 km from north to south. It is entirely located in the Frankenhöhe Nature Park . Only a very small area of ​​the municipality on its eastern edge lies on the wooded low mountain range, which forms a very flat plateau here, it drains over its uppermost course Karrachbach and some tributaries of the Kreuthbach to the Altmühl and thus to the Danube . The other municipal area belongs entirely to Tauber - and thus to the Main - and the Rhine - the catchment area . At the foot of the downhill slope, the streams flow to the nearby step-edge river Tauber: The Schweinsbach near Schweinsdorf in the north feeds the Steinbach , which flows below Rothenburg ob der Tauber , the Igelsbach in the middle part runs into the river a little above Rothenburg and the other Erlbacher Bach fed from the Wachsenberger Graben in the south via the Kirnberger Mühlbach a little further upstream at Gebsattel .

The two highest points in the municipality are near the main town on the western spurs of the Lug ins Land plateau (approx. 512  m above sea level ) and Schloßberg ( 498  m above sea level ), the two lowest at the outflow of Igelsbach and Erlbacher Bach in their valleys (each approx. 380  m above sea level ).

Neighboring communities

Neighboring communities are Steinsfeld in the north-north-west, Windelsbach in the north-east and east, Gebsattel in the south and south-south-west and Rothenburg ob der Tauber in the west, all of which are also part of the Ansbach district.

Community structure

The municipality has nine officially named municipal parts (the type of settlement is indicated in brackets ):

Chausseehaus ( wasteland ) Erlbach ( hamlet ) Horabach (hamlet) Neusitz ( parish village ) Schafhof (wasteland)

Schweinsdorf ( Kirchdorf ) Seehäusl (wasteland) Södelbronn (hamlet) Wachsenberg ( village )

Neusitz is the largest place in the municipality. It is located a good three kilometers east of the Rothenburg city center in front of the erosion bay of the Wachsenberger Graben, which is open to the south-southwest. This is framed by the mountain cheeks of the Lug ins Land plateau in the north-north-west and Schloßberg in the south-east. The place lies on a low ridge between the hollows of the Wachsenberg trench and the Igelsbach brook in front of the ditch. The old town center stands under the old parish church in a hillside position on the embankment down into the Igelsbachmulde, the now much more extensive new development areas are mostly on the hill above.

Schweinsdorf in the northern municipality area spreads out in a flatter location at the foot of the slope. To the north of the town center, there is a new development area that has meanwhile reached about its size.

Wachsenberg stands at almost 500  m above sea level. NHN a little northeast of Neusitz on the upper slope shoulder, above the source of the body of water named after him in the slope forest and near the Lug ins Land. It is the only suburb on the plateau, still shaped by agriculture and surrounded by three-quarters of fields.

Horabach , Södelbronn and Erlbach are close to each other in the southern municipality area in or in front of the erosion bay of the Erlbacher Bach. Apart from a few newer stables and barns on the outskirts, the places have remained unchanged in structure, with at most, in the case of Horabach, about a dozen old farms.

Chausseehaus is located a little west of Neusitz on the road to Rothenburg, the Schafhof a little north of it on the road to Schweinsdorf and the Seehäusl in an even closer satellite location to Schweinsdorf.

history

Until the church is planted

The area of ​​the community of Neusitz was settled thousands of years ago. During work on the federal highway 7 , traces of a village from the Bandkeramikzeit (around 5000 BC) were discovered. Mesolithic sites (up to 10,000 BC) can be found near Wachsenberg, Neusitz and Kirnberg. Neusitz itself is still a relatively young village in the Rothenburg area, founded by the master chefs from Nordenberg . The original cell was around 1235 a castle with a manor, 500 days' work of land and a church. There was also a small Dominican monastery in town.

Around 1255 the place was first mentioned as "Nvwseze". The basic word of the place name is “sëz” ( mhd .: Residence) and the final word “niuwe” (mhd .: new).

In the village of Neusitz, the rest of the moth of the Neusitz tower hill castle is in the new district on the ridge of the hill. On the Schlossberg in the south-east, remains of ramparts and moats of an early medieval fortification can still be seen. A flattened moth remains from the Niederungsburg Erlach in the district of the same name.

After belonging to the Rothenburg Dominican convent and the imperial city of Rothenburg for centuries, Neusitz became Bavarian in 1802 and, like Rothenburg, subject to the kingdom.

With the community edict (early 19th century) the tax district Neusitz was formed, to which the places Erlbach , Horabach , Karrachmühle , Schafhof and Wachsenberg belonged. A little later, the rural community of Neusitz was formed with Chausseehaus , Erlbach, Horabach, Schafhof, Södelbronn and Wachsenberg . It was subordinate to the regional court of Rothenburg in administration and jurisdiction . The community of Neusitz originally had an area of ​​9.174 km².

Incorporations

On May 1, 1978, the previously independent community of Schweinsdorf was incorporated.

Population development

In the period from 1988 to 2018, the population increased from 1,499 to 2,086 by 587 inhabitants or 39.2%.

politics

mayor

From 1972 to 2002 Werner Heckel was honorary first mayor. For his services he was awarded the Order of Merit of the Federal Republic of Germany on May 12, 2003.

Rudolf Glas (CSU) has been the full-time mayor since 2002. He was re-elected unopposed in the 2014 local elections with 91.95% of the vote. The municipal council appointed Florian Meyer as the second mayor.

Municipal council

The community council of Neusitz has - after 12 before - 14 members since May 2008 because the community now has more than 2000 inhabitants. In addition to the 14 members, there is also the mayor, Rudolf Glas. In the local elections on March 2, 2008 , as in the previous elections, only one nomination was submitted, the corresponding list name was CSU and free voters . It can be confusing, as the nomination did not contain a single candidate from the Free Voters (FW), who ran across Bavaria . Rather, it was a Neusitzer unit list on which the vast majority of candidates are not CSU members. In 2008, out of 24 candidates, only three CSU members ran. In the local elections on March 16, 2014 , there was only this single list.

	CSU	Free voters	total
2002	2	10	12 seats
2008	3	11	14 seats
2014			14 seats

coat of arms

Neusitz has had its own coat of arms since 1986.

	Blazon : “ Divided ; above three times divided by silver and blue, below in silver a growing black eagle. "
	Justification of the coat of arms: The division of silver and blue is the coat of arms of the Reichsküchemeister von Nordenberg , who built a castle in Neusitz around 1144. In 1383 their property came to the imperial city of Rothenburg and remained there until 1803. The black eagle commemorates this imperial city rule.

traffic

The national road 2250 runs north from Neusitz and leads to the connection point 108 of the Bundesautobahn 7 or to Geslau over after Colmberg . The district road AN 33 leads to Gebsattel to the state road 2449 . Communal roads lead to Erlbach , to Horabach and past the Schafhof to Schweinsdorf .

leisure offers

Probably because of the proximity to the city of Rothenburg ob der Tauber , which is only two kilometers away, there are only a few leisure activities in Neusitz. Leisure life is mainly organized by the clubs and the two Protestant parishes.

societies

The shooting club SV Neusitz was founded in 1977. He organizes the carnival ball and organizes an annual barbecue.

The Protestant rural youth was founded again in 1995 and has more than 60 active and passive members. Public actions are the annual rural youth festival (with approx. 2500 visitors), the collection of old clothes and participation in various events of the parish. The rural youth use the attic of the church youth center.

The fire brigade association has its fire station in the town hall, sets up the maypole every year on the evening of April 30th and organizes the subsequent celebration. This has developed into a well-attended event, in which families with children also take part.

The 1911 Schweinsdorf choral society consists of 31 active members.

There is also the sociability association, the fruit and horticultural association and the village youth in Schweinsdorf.

Parishes

The parishes of Neusitz and Schweinsdorf belong to the community of Neusitz. The districts of Wachsenberg, Horabach, Erlbach and Södelbronn form the parish of Neusitz. Markus Dörrer is the pastor for both parishes.

The parishes offer a variety of events, groups and circles. Together with the community's associations, they have been organizing the Neusitz Advent market since 2005.
