history
A Frankish royal court was located near Oberhausen as early as the 8th century. However, today's hamlet was only mentioned in a document on October 4th, 1374. At that time, the imperial district judge Ruprecht gave the hamlet to the Benedictine monastery in Kitzingen . Hans von Boltzhausen from Röttingen confirmed the man's fiefdom on July 2, 1390. However, the monastery already lent the fiefdom to Götz von Finsterlohe on June 10, 1391 .
At the beginning of the 15th century Heinrich, brother of Götz, and the convent of the Carthusian monastery in Tückelhausen were wealthy in the place. Even in the 16th century Oberhausen was the monastery Tückelhausen tenth of charge . The connection with the Carthusian monks also meant that the place remained Catholic, while the neighboring Nassau followed Luther's teaching. Oberhausen was part of the Riedenheim community as early as the 19th century.
