history

prehistory

In the district of Rödgen there existed for a short time around the year 10 BC. A Roman military camp for a period of about two years .

middle Ages

The oldest surviving mention of the village comes from the year 1250. The place name indicates a clearing . Rödgen was part of the Munzenberg inheritance after the death of Ulrich II von Munzenberg in 1255 and initially fell to the Lords of Falkenstein as an allod . After their extinction, it was bequeathed to the Lords of Eppstein in 1418 . These also died out in 1535. Rödgen was bequeathed to the Counts of Stolberg . They pledged the village in 1572 and finally sold it to the County of Hanau-Münzenberg in 1578 . There it was integrated into the newly formed Dorheim Office in 1597 .

Modern times

The Reformation was gradually introduced in the county of Hanau-Münzenberg in the middle of the 16th century . This happened first in the Lutheran sense. In a "second Reformation", the denomination was changed again: From 1597 Count Philipp Ludwig II pursued a decidedly reformed church policy. He made use of the Jus reformandi , his right as sovereign to determine the denomination of his subjects, and made this largely binding for the County of Hanau-Munzenberg, including in Rödgen. The higher church authority was the consistory in Hanau .

As in the rest of the county of Hanau-Münzenberg, the Solms land law became customary here at the turn of the 16th and 17th centuries . The Common Law applied only if the rules contained the Solmser land rights for a fact no provisions. The Solms land law remained valid in the 19th century, even in the Electorate of Hesse and the Hessian Grand Ducal period. It was not until the Civil Code of January 1, 1900, which was uniformly valid throughout the German Reich , that the old particular law was largely overridden.

After the death of the last Hanau count, Johann Reinhard III. , In 1736, Landgrave Friedrich I of Hessen-Kassel inherited the county of Hanau-Münzenberg and thus Rödgen on the basis of an inheritance contract from 1643. In 1803 the Landgraviate of Hesse-Kassel was elevated to the status of the Electorate of Hesse . During the Napoleonic period, the Dorheim office was under French military administration from 1806, belonged to the Principality of Hanau from 1807 to 1810 , and then from 1810 to 1813 to the Grand Duchy of Frankfurt , Department of Hanau . Then it fell back to the Electorate of Hesse. After the administrative reform of the Electorate of Hesse in 1821, in the course of which the Electorate of Hesse was divided into four provinces and 22 districts, the Dorheim office became part of the newly formed Hanau district . After the lost war of 1866 , the Kingdom of Prussia annexed the Electorate of Hesse. However, in the peace treaty of September 3, 1866 , the Dorheim office was passed on from Prussia to the Grand Duchy of Hesse-Darmstadt in an area swap, from whose territory it was completely surrounded. There the village of Rödgen was incorporated into the Friedberg district, which belonged to the province of Upper Hesse .

In the course of the regional reform in Hesse , Rödgen joined forces with Wisselsheim on February 1, 1971 to form the Wettertal community. Already at 31 December 1971 Wisselsheim was in the city of Bad Nauheim incorporated .
