location

Oberfüllbach is about seven kilometers southeast of Coburg . Communal roads lead to Rödental , Kleingarnstadt , Friesendorf and Rohrbach . West of Oberfüllbach run the federal motorway 73 and the 380 kV line from Altenfeld to Redwitz an der Rodach . The Füllbach , a tributary of the Itz , flows through the village. The name is also derived from Fohlenbach. The coat of arms of the place shows, among other things, a rising horse.

history

Oberfüllbach was designated in 1329 as "superiori vulbach". It was a subsidiary of Niederfüllbach .

In 1353, Oberfüllbach and the Coburg Land were inherited by the Wettins and from 1485 it was part of the Electorate of Saxony , from which the Duchy of Saxony-Coburg later emerged.

Old forester's house

In the center of Oberfüllbach there is an old forester's house on a tower hill. The forester's house probably goes back to a Franconian manor house, which was the seat of the Lords of Füllbach. The lower aristocratic family bequeathed their goods to the Sonnefeld monastery over the years . After the Reformation, with the dissolution of the monastery, Oberfüllbach became a ducal chamber property. The manor house was the residence of a forester until the 1950s.

Oberfüllbach has belonged to the Evangelical Lutheran parish of Großgarnstadt, 2.8 kilometers away, for centuries .

Loamy soil, which was difficult to work and yielded little, led to intensive sheep farming in the place.

The voluntary fire brigade goes back to a compulsory fire brigade founded in 1835. In 1927, following a meeting resolution, it was converted into the Oberfüllbach volunteer fire brigade.

In a referendum on November 30, 1919, 14 citizens of Oberfüllbach voted for the Free State of Coburg to join the Thuringian state and 62 against. From July 1st, 1920, Oberfüllbach also belonged to the Free State of Bavaria . In 1925, the 276.94 hectare village had 274 residents, 273 of whom belonged to the Protestant church, and 54 residential buildings.

On April 1, 1971, Oberfüllbach was incorporated into Ebersdorf near Coburg. In 1987 the place had 328 inhabitants and 87 houses.
