history
The area has been colonized from around 4000 BC. Proven by representatives of the band ceramic culture . The first recorded owner of the area was Count Heinrich von Gleichen , who pledged it to the city of Erfurt in 1296. The earliest known mention of Obernissa by name as Obern Nuweseze in a pledge deed by Count Hermann von Gleichen dates back to 1316. The name literally means "Ober-Neusitz" (or - "New settlement") and was used until the end of the 18th century numerous intermediate stages to "Obernissa" sanded. From 1296 to 1815 Obernissa belonged to the land area of the city of Erfurt . In 1802 the place came with this to Prussia and between 1807 and 1813 to the French Principality of Erfurt . With the Vienna Congress in 1815, Obernissa came to the Grand Duchy of Saxony-Weimar-Eisenach with the Tonndorf office , to whose Weimar administrative district it belonged from 1850.
The Waidanbau was from the Middle Ages to the 17th century an important economic factor. The trade in the dye obtained from the woad was an important source of income for the city of Erfurt and the surrounding agriculture. One of the millstones used in Obernissa went into the holdings of the Erfurt Folklore Museum in 1970 , but was returned in 1996 and put back in the village.
