history

Map of Pfaffenberg and Mambach (1896)

The oldest written reference Pfaff mountain dates back to 1439. An earlier ban Description of 1,374 in Urbar of the monastery of St. Blaise even pointed to a previous inventory. The mention already indicates the suburb of Käsern:

"The vahent to by des pfaffenwäge (mouth of the Pfaffenbach) and gang the Pfaffenbach unz and to the vockenbrunnen, from vockenbrunnen uff untz des keszeres Hübhorn, from the hünhorn the egg uff and to the snow-sleepi uff zu Käszeren"

The suburb of Käsern was mentioned in a Schönauer Fleckenrodel from 1294. The name refers to the cheese interest that remote places had to pay to the monastery instead of other perishable foods.

In 1790 Pfaffenberg had nine houses, 70 residents and, in addition to its own school, also a staff holder . In 1850 there was emigration due to fires and bad harvests, so that five farms were abandoned. The Antonius Chapel in the Käsern-Hof has also fallen into disuse.

As a result of the municipal reform , Pfaffenberg was incorporated into the city of Zell in 1975.

politics

Municipal council

After the municipal reform in 1975 and the incorporation of Pfaffenberg into the city of Zell, the place has its own local council and a local councilor. The council consists of seven members, headed by Harald Fritz since 2009.

coat of arms

The blazon of the coat of arms reads: "In black a golden abbot's staff, each with a golden ring." The crook of the abbess von Säckingen and the two gold rings from the coat of arms of the barons of Schönau are references to the former manorial rule . The coat of arms of Pfaffenberg was adopted in 1902 on the proposal of the General State Archives. In 1938 the National Socialists wanted to remove the crook from the coat of arms, but this ultimately failed.
