Horse field (Hunsrück)
Horse field is a former place in the Soonwald part of the Hunsrück in Rhineland-Palatinate ( Bad Kreuznach district ). The village was abandoned around 1980 due to its proximity to the horse field .
history
Horse field was settled around the year 700, the first documentary mention dates from the year 1295.
A noise protection commission consisting of six officials and six citizens' representatives came to the unanimous result on April 6, 1976 that life in horses field, Rehbach and Eckweiler was unreasonable and advocated the resettlement. The resettlement was announced on September 10, 1976 by representatives of the federal government and the state government. Thus began the abandonment of the place and the old settlement complex. In February 1977, in preparation for resettlement, the Sociological Institute of the Technical University of Darmstadt carried out a detailed survey of all households in Pferdefeld-Eckweiler on the wishes and ideas of the residents . The Leinenborn in the east of the city of Bad Sobernheim was selected as the resettlement site .
In 1978, development work began for the population of the affected places in Bad Sobernheim, 15 kilometers away, where most of the horse fields moved between 1979 and 1984. In 1981/82, horses field and its streets (Auenerweg, Belebach, Borr, Haischbach, Hauptstraße, Hohl, Im Winkel, Schulstraße, Teewiese, Treb, Unterdorf) were leveled. Four years later, on January 26th, 1984 at 1.30 p.m., the Evangelical church tower in horses field was blown up. Only two houses, including an emigrant farm , have been preserved as their residents did not want to leave their homeland.
Today, horse field belongs to the city of Bad Sobernheim. On February 28, 1979, the Koblenz district government dissolved the local parishes of Pferdfeld and Eckweiler.
On June 10, 1979, the community of horses field was officially incorporated into the city of Bad Sobernheim.
