history

Peusenhof was first mentioned in a document in 1251 as "Bulsendorf" in a confirmation of property from Pope Innocent IV for the Michelsberg monastery . In 1268 Kunemund von Lichtenfels gave the monastery the bailiwick of four men in "Puelssendorf".

From 1405 the von Rauheneck family had the village “Beulsendorff” from the Michelsberg monastery as a fief . In 1492 Jörg von Rauheneck sold two farms to "Peulsendorff" with the associated Selden to the citizen Hans Tittman zu Lichtenfels. From 1598 to 1652 the Neydecker family were fief carriers in Peusenhof. The fiefdom of the Oberhof was from 1652 to 1805 the Sündermahler family, whose members mostly provided the bailiff and castler of the Staffelstein office during this time. The place was not called Peusenhof until 1768.

In 1801 the place consisted of two parts of a courtyard that was lent to the Michelsberg monastery. The high and low jurisdiction was held by the office of the Bamberg bishopric in Ebensfeld, which also raised taxes. In 1809 Peusenhof came to the parish of Kirchschletten. Before that it belonged to the parish Ebensfeld, which was separated from the parish Staffelstein in 1374. In 1840 the rural settlement of Peusenhof was described as the only “model economy” of the Lichtenfels Regional Court, along with Kutzenberg and Vierzehnheiligen .

It was a place of the rural community of Kleukheim , which belonged to the Staffelstein district court. The community capital Kleukheim was 2.5 kilometers away.

In 1871 Peusenhof had 14 residents, all of whom were Catholic, and 9 buildings. The responsible Catholic school and church were in Kirchschletten, 2.0 kilometers away, which belonged to the Bamberg I office. In 1900 the two places of the rural community Kleukheim had an area of 666.25 hectares, 493 inhabitants, of whom 492 were Catholics, and 101 residential buildings. 29 people lived in 4 residential buildings in Peusenhof and in 1925 23 people lived in 3 residential buildings.
