history

First mention and name

The oldest known written mention of Lais took place between the years 750 and 802 in the time of the two first Fulda abbots Sturmius and Baugulf von Fulda as Leinzaha . The place name means "the water on the Leite (mountain slope)".

The distinction between Ober-Lais is documented on January 5, 1279. A year earlier, on January 3, 1278, "Niedern Leysa" (Unter-Lais) was mentioned.

Another story

In 1187, Count Berthold II of Nidda transferred goods to the Johannites in Nidda and the small tithe in "Leizaha."

The Johanniter Church in Unter-Lais was built around 1200. The baroque choir extension was demolished in 1971 due to its dilapidation. In the Middle Ages, the church belonged to the diocese of Mainz , Archdiakonat St. Mariengreden , until 1313 to the rural chapter of Södel , from 1315 to the deanship of Friedberg , the district of Wallernhausen and the parish of Wallernhausen.

The statistical-topographical-historical description of the Grand Duchy of Hesse reports about Ober-Lais in 1830:

"Oberlais (L. Bez. Nidda) evangel. Branch village; is located in Vogelsberg on a hill, 1 1 ⁄ 2  St. from Nidda, has 87 houses and 489 inhabitants, who are Protestant apart from 4 Catholics. 104 of them belong to the peasant class and 4 are engaged in civil trades. The place has a church which is located in the Unterlais court that belongs here. In 1330 Oberlais appears as a Palatinate fief. "

and to Unter-Lais:

“Unterlais (L. Bez. Nidda) Hof; belongs to Oberlais and consists of 6-8 houses, also the church of Oberlais is located here. It occurs earlier than a village that was sold with Jchelshausen, 1278, by Count Ludwig II to the Johannites for 60 marks, and appears in 1330 as a Palatinate fief. "

As part of the regional reform in Hesse , the previously independent municipalities of Bad Salzhausen, Borsdorf, Fauerbach bei Nidda, Geiß-Nidda, Harb, Kohden, Michelnau, Ober-Lais, Ober-Schmitten, Ober-Widdersheim, Stornfels, merged on December 1, 1970 Ulfa, Unter-Schmitten, Wallernhausen and the city of Nidda to form the new city of Nidda.
