Oberrohn

The creation of the six Rohnhöfe and the Röhrigshof goes back to the clearing rule of the Lords of Frankenstein , who had a considerable number of farms built on the southern and western edge of the moorland . In 1330, the already highly indebted Frankensteiners were forced to sell their extensive estates (Frankenstein sales letter). Oberrohn , later known as Gut Oberrohn , first came to the Herrenbreitungen Monastery and, after the monastery was secularized, to private owners. At that time, Oberrohn already belonged to the Saxon part of the Salzungen Office , which was administered jointly between the Wettins and Counts of Henneberg . The Thuringian landgraves always appeared as feudal lords; they were also the guardians of the nearby Frauensee monastery . In 1736 the Landgrave Wilhelm von Hessen-Philippsthal-Barchfeld acquired the Oberrohn estate and initiated a modernization. In 1795 Oberrohn had 43 inhabitants, 16 cows, 48 pigs and 62 sheep.

A wealthy Voigt family from Salzungen showed their interest in buying in the 19th century and acquired the estate with an agricultural area of around 300 hectares, they also owned the Große Röhrigshof . In 1841 the farmer Werther bought the estate.

The Oberrohn lime works was built as the first industrial settlement in 1910. The plant had a separate loading bay with a rail connection, workers were attracted from the neighboring towns, and the population rose to 154.

In March 1920, the Kapp Putsch also led to strikes and unrest in the region around Bad Salzungen , Gotha and Eisenach . In Bad Salzungen a general strike was called on March 14, 1920 and the town hall was occupied, the workers armed themselves with weapons from the former Sachsen-Meiniger barracks. The roads and railways around the city were blocked by armed workers. Rumors circulated in Eisenach on March 25, 1920 that weapons were being hidden on some estates near Marksuhl and Bad Salzungen. “The crowds, some of which were armed, went out into the countryside, where they searched the villages and farms for weapons. (...) On Salzunger freight station, a railway freight train was searched and stolen a large amount of firearms and ammunition. " The arms sales should obviously Reichswehr Group and Home Guards are made available to a Feared spillover of the fighting on the potash plants to Leimbach , Kaiseroda and flag to prevent . The then Eisenach USPD district secretary Karl Hermann had alerted his Tiefenort party friends around Hans Ziller .

Today's Oberrohn stop was only created in the 1950s, when the town of Oberrohn had grown to 312 residents due to the strong influx of resettled and refugee families. These new settlers founded the LPG “7. November". At that time there were already plenty of jobs in the forest, in the lime works, in potash mining and in the neighboring district town of Bad Salzungen.

The Obere Hof or Großer Röhrigshof formed the main town of the court settlement association in 1312 and was referred to as a village (villa) in the Frankenstein documents. In the 19th century, this part of the village formed a suburb of the Oberrohn estate and was inhabited by five residents. The Röhrigshöfe were administratively connected to Gräfendorf and parish to Möhra .
