Ober-Sorg is a district of Schwalmtal in the Vogelsberg district in Central Hesse .

history

The first written mention of Ober-Sorg as Sualmanaha comes from the year 1030, later the village was also referred to as Swalmen (1450) and Oberswalmen (1490). The name goes back to the Schwalm river , which flows by near the village. At the beginning of the 18th century, the place was assigned to the office of Romrod .

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

"Obersorg (L. Bez. Alsfeld) evangel. Branch village; is located on the Schwalm 1 12 St. from Alsfeld, has 29 houses and 195 Protestant residents, as well as 2 mills, namely 1 meal and 1 oil mill. "

Territorial reform

In the course of the regional reform in Hesse , Ober-Sorg has formed the municipality of Schwalmtal since December 31, 1971, together with eight other previously independent localities.

Territorial history and administration

The following list gives an overview of the territories in which Ober-Sorg was located and the administrative units to which it was subordinate:

Courts since 1803

In the Landgraviate of Hesse-Darmstadt , the judicial system was reorganized in an executive order of December 9, 1803. The “Hofgericht Gießen” was set up as a court of second instance for the province of Upper Hesse . The jurisdiction of the first instance was carried out by the offices or landlords and thus for Ober-Sorg by the Romrod office. The court court was the second instance court for normal civil disputes, and the first instance for civil family law cases and criminal cases. The superior court of appeal in Darmstadt was superordinate .

With the establishment of the Grand Duchy of Hesse in 1806, this function was retained, while the tasks of the first instance were transferred to the newly created regional courts in 1821 as part of the separation of jurisdiction and administration. "Alsfeld Regional Court" was therefore the name of the court of first instance in Alsfeld from 1821 to 1879, today's district court, which was responsible for Ober-Sorg.

On the occasion of the introduction of the Courts Constitution Act with effect from October 1, 1879, as a result of which the previous grand-ducal Hessian regional courts were replaced by local courts in the same place, while the newly created regional courts now functioned as higher courts, the name was changed to the Alsfeld district court and the district was assigned to the district of the regional court Pouring . In the Federal Republic of Germany, the superordinate instances are the Regional Court of Giessen, the Higher Regional Court of Frankfurt am Main and the Federal Court of Justice as the last instance.
