Oppenrod is a district of the municipality of Buseck in the central Hessian district of Gießen with around 1000 inhabitants. Oppenrod became known through the go- kart club Oppenrod , which owns and operates the Stefan Bellof motorsport arena .

history

The earliest surviving mention under the name Openrode in the document book of the Arnsburg monastery comes from the year 1245.

The core of the Evangelical Church in Oppenrod goes back to the Middle Ages and was given its current shape through renovations and extensions in 1785 and 1977.

The statistical, topographical and historical description of the Grand Duchy of Hesse reports on the Buseck Valley in 1830 :

“Busecker Thal (L. Bez. Giessen) area. The Busecker Thal consists of 9 towns: Altenbuseck, Großenbuseck, Albach, Beuern, Bersrod, Burkhardsfelden, Oppenrod, Reißkirchen and Rödchen, which together have 5675 inhabitants. - The foursome and heirs of Buseck came under landgrave jurisdiction in 1332. But they never wanted to be seen as country residents , but as immediate imperial residents. Large disputes arose over this in 1547, and in the settlement made in 1576 the residents recognized the sovereign sovereignty of the landgrave, but the jurisdiction of the von Buseck was recognized by the landgrave as an undisputed imperial fiefdom. In 1706, new controversies caused the imperial Reichshofrath to repeal the settlement and to declare the Busecker valley to be an immediate imperial fiefdom, to penalize those with 50 marks of solder as a penalty, and to transfer the upholding of this resolution to several neighboring imperial estates. The Landgrave then turned to the Imperial Assembly at Regensburg, whereupon the Hesse-Darmstadt House of Hesse-Darmstadt was given jurisdiction, along with fiefdom, as a permanent imperial commission, and the settlement of 1576 was confirmed. In 1827, the Baron von Buseck family ceded the patrimonial jurisdiction to which they were entitled in the Busecker Thal to the state. "

as well as about Oppenrod:

"Oppenrod (L. Bez. Giessen) evangel. Branch village; is 1 12 hours from Giessen and belongs to the baron. The von Buseck family has 1 church, 41 houses and 222 residents, who are Protestant except for 1 Catholics. In 1827 the von Buseck family ceded their patrimonial jurisdiction to the state. "

Territorial reform

As part of the regional reform in Hesse , the municipality of Oppenrod was incorporated on a voluntary basis into the municipality of Großen-Buseck on October 1, 1971, which in turn was incorporated on January 1, 1977 by the law on the reorganization of the Dill district, the districts of Gießen and Wetzlar and the city of Gießen was merged with the communities of Beuern and Alten-Buseck to form the community of Buseck. For Oppenrod, as for every district, a local district with a local advisory council and a local mayor was set up.

Historical forms of names

In surviving documents, Oppenrod was mentioned under the following place names (the year of mention in brackets):

  • Openrode, iuxta (1245) [Document book of the Arnsburg monastery 3, no. 43]
  • Opperode, von (1352) [Wyss, document book of the Deutschordens-Ballei 2, no. 874]
  • Oppenrade, zu (1405) [Document book of the Arnsburg Monastery 3, No. 1148]

Territorial history and administration

The following list gives an overview of the territories in which Oppenrod was located and the administrative units to which it was subordinate:

Courts since 1803

In the Landgraviate of Hesse-Darmstadt , the judicial system was reorganized in an executive order of December 9, 1803. The “Hofgericht Gießen” was set up as a court of second instance for the province of Upper Hesse . The jurisdiction of the first instance was carried out by the offices or registry lords and thus the "Patrimonial Court of the Barons of Buseck" in Grossen-Buseck was responsible for Oppenrod. The court court was the second instance court for normal civil disputes, and the first instance for civil family law cases and criminal cases. The superior court of appeal in Darmstadt was superordinate .

With the establishment of the Grand Duchy of Hesse in 1806, this function was retained, while the tasks of the first instance were transferred to the newly created regional and city courts in 1821 as part of the separation of jurisdiction and administration. But it was not until 1827 that patrimonial jurisdiction was exercised by the " Landgericht Gießen " on behalf of the barons. As a result of the March Revolution of 1848, with the "Law on the Relationships of the Classes and Noble Court Lords" of April 15, 1848, the special rights of the class were finally repealed.

On the occasion of the introduction of the Courts Constitution Act on October 1, 1879, the previous regional and city courts in the Grand Duchy of Hesse were repealed and replaced by local courts in the same place, as was the case with the higher courts, whose function was now taken over by the newly established regional courts. The districts of the city and regional court of Gießen were merged and now, together with the towns of Allertshausen and Climbach , which previously belonged to the district court of Grünberg , formed the district of the newly created district court of Gießen, which has since been part of the district of the newly established regional court of Gießen . Between January 1, 1977 and August 1, 1979, the court was called "District Court Lahn-Gießen", which was renamed "District Court Gießen" when the city of Lahn was dissolved. In the Federal Republic of Germany, the superordinate instances of the District Court of Gießen, the Regional Court of Gießen , the Higher Regional Court of Frankfurt am Main and the Federal Court of Justice are the last instance.
