Community structure
The municipality of Oberhausen-Rheinhausen consists of the former municipalities of Oberhausen and Rheinhausen, to which the house Ziegelhütte belonged.
The former municipality of Rheinhausen is a place within the meaning of the Baden-Württemberg municipal code with its own local council and a local councilor .
history
The first documentary mention comes from the year 1256. This document speaks of two villages Husen an der Furt. In the early 14th century Oberhausen and Rheinhausen came into the possession of the Diocese of Speyer , which later belonged to the Upper Rhine Empire , and remained there until 1803, when they fell to the Grand Duchy of Baden as part of the mediatization due to the Reichsdeputationshauptschluss . There they last belonged to the district of Bruchsal until it was added to the district of Karlsruhe in 1973.
In 1490, the Roman-German King Maximilian I set up the first regularly operated postal route in Europe between Innsbruck and Brussels , which crossed the Rhine by means of the Rheinhausen ferry . Maximilian I commissioned members of the Italian courier family Taxis to carry out this postal service . Rheinhausen has been documented as a post office since 1495 . In 1540, Johann Baptista von Taxis transferred the Rheinhausen post office and its branches to Seraphin I von Taxis and his brother Bartholomäus for life . In 1552 Seraphin I von Taxis had a post house built, but it was destroyed several times as a result of the war. In addition to Augsburg, Rheinhausen was a stopover on the historical postal route Brussels-Innsbruck-Italy, which is also recorded in Giovanni da l'Herba's postal route book from 1563. The Rheinhausen post office survived until it was closed under Napoleon in 1803.
On January 1, 1975, as part of the municipal reform in Baden-Württemberg, the previously independent municipality of Rheinhausen was incorporated into Oberhausen. At the same time, the community was renamed Oberhausen-Rheinhausen.
Religions
Oberhausen and Rheinhausen belong to the Archdiocese of Freiburg . The Reformation could not gain a foothold here, both districts are still today Roman Catholic . At the moment there is still a Catholic parish here. The few Protestants are spiritually cared for by the Protestant community in Waghäusel .
politics
Municipal council
The parish council usually has 22 honorary members who are elected for five years. The number of members can increase through compensatory seats (total 2019: 24 seats; 2014: 22). In addition, the mayor acts as the municipal council chairman with voting rights.
By choosing the wrong part of the town , the districts are guaranteed a fixed number of seats: at least 15 members come from Oberhausen and at least seven from Rheinhausen.
