Pierheim (until 1875 also "Bierheim") is a district of Hilpoltstein in the Middle Franconian district of Roth in Bavaria .

location

The village is located in an angle formed by the A 9 motorway and the Main-Danube Canal , about six kilometers east of the town center of Hilpoltstein on the border between the Middle Franconian Basin and the foreland of the Middle Franconian Alb.

In the 19th century, the town hall was about 282 hectares .

Place name interpretation

Karl Kugler interprets the place name as "home where game stays" from "biar" = "game". Another interpretation sees the place name combined with the old personal name "Biro"; but since the place appeared in documents relatively late, this interpretation is not tenable. Also “bira” = pear tree has not been introduced convincingly into the place name interpretation.

history

1423 appears in a document "Pürheim". Here, in the ducal-Bavarian office of Hilpoltstein since 1385, according to a Salbuch from 1491, the Jettenhofen rulership owned.

In 1505, after the War of the Landshut Succession , the Hilpoltstein office and with it Pierheim came to the new Duchy of Palatinate-Neuburg . From 1542 to 1578, Pierheim was pledged to the imperial city of Nuremberg with the Palatinate-Neuburgian office of Hilpoltstein . An immediate change of religion was connected with this change of rule; so the office Hilpoltstein and thus Pierheim from 1542 was Protestant. The description of the goods made by Nuremberg, a Salbuch from 1544, shows 20 “yards and teams” for “Pürheim”, five lying desolate and 15 “roomed”. Of these belonged manorial

Pierheim was parish in Meckenhausen , the rule (Hilpolt-) Stein held the high level of jurisdiction .

From 1578 the pledged office Hilpoltstein and with it Pierheim von Pfalz-Neuburg was redeemed again. Since Pfalz-Neuburg had become Protestant in the meantime, the return to the practice of the Catholic faith only came when the Counter-Reformation took place under Count Palatine Wolfgang Wilhelm in 1627 . Jesuits from Eichstätt were active in Hilpoltstein for this purpose .

Towards the end of the Old Kingdom , around 1800, Pierheim had grown to include 27 subject properties, so there had been court divisions. These subject estates belonged to eleven landlords, viz

  • One each to the Palatinate-Neuburgian district judge Heideck , Sigmund Christoph von Harsdorf auf Enderndorf (female heirs), the Jahrsdorf Church, the Nuremberg Hospital Foundation ( Deutschordensspital? ) and the Nürnberg Heilig-Geist-Spitalstiftung,
  • Two each from the Protestant Cultural Foundation Nuremberg, the Bavarian Monastery Office Seligenporten and the Choir Foundation Hilpoltstein.
  • four of the parish church Hilpoltstein as well
  • eight to the Hilpoltstein Rent Office.
  • Four were freely owned.

In the new Kingdom of Bavaria (1806) a tax district Jahrsdorf was formed; Pierheim and Bischofsholz , Grauwinkl , Solar and Schafhof, the Krohenhof and Patersholz with Eibach also belonged to him . In 1818 Bischofsholz was given to the Mörsdorf tax district , to the Mörlach community in 1820 and to the Pierheim community in 1950.

In 1867 the community of Bierheim, together with Bischofsholz, had 166 inhabitants and 61 buildings; 122 people lived in Bierheim itself. In 1871 there were 60 buildings in the municipality of Pierheim (now the new name form), 33 of which are residential buildings. The 175 inhabitants had twelve horses, 238 cattle, 26 pigs and nine goats in 1873. The children from Pierheim went to school in the parish of Meckenhausen, the children from Bischofsholz attended the school in Mörlach. Around 1900 the community only had 146 inhabitants, 112 of them in Pierheim itself. Eight horses, 244 cattle and 125 pigs were now kept in the community.

During the regional reform in Bavaria , the previously independent municipality of Pierheim was dissolved on July 1, 1972; Pierheim was incorporated into Meckenhausen, Bischofsholz into Hilpoltstein. On July 1, 1976, the community of Meckenhausen was incorporated into Hilpoltstein.

Catholic Lady Chapel

The late baroque chapel belongs to the parish of Meckenhausen. It was built in 1820/21 by the community from sandstone blocks from the Kränzleinsberg near Hilpoltstein; Alois Nißlbeck from Meckenhausen was probably the master mason . Oriented south-north, it has a curved gable with cornices in the south and an open, coupled roof turret on the gable roof behind the gable. In 1928 a sacristy was added east of the apse. In 1934 two bells were placed on top of each other in the roof turret, but in 1944 they were melted down to make war material. In 1950 they were replaced again. The four-pillar baroque altar of Mary (with classical elements and a figure of Mary under a crown) is the work of Franz Joseph Bittner. A Madonna under a canopy is on the left in the apse.

Architectural monuments

In addition to the local chapel, the former residential stable house Pierheim 16, a steep, ground-floor gable roof building with half-timbered gable, probably built at the end of the 18th century, is a listed building (monument number D-5-76-127-109).
