history
Prehistory and Antiquity
Archaeological finds suggest an early settlement in the Neolithic . The wealth of springs offered ideal settlement conditions here.
In Roman times there was a Roman manor ( villa rustica ) in place of the church in Radheim, then part of the province of Upper Germany and from 125 AD on the right bank of the Rhine part of the Civitas Auderiensium with the capital Dieburg . These farms supplied the troops on the nearby Limes . The found Roman stones of the four gods serve as evidence . The last stone of the four gods was found during renovation work in 1972 under the altar of the old Radheim church. A stone of the four gods is now also kept in the State Museum in Darmstadt . With the fall of the Limes around the year 260 AD, the Romans withdrew again behind the Rhine line .
middle Ages
The Franks settled the area in the 5th century .
The oldest surviving mention of the village can be found in the Codex Eberhardi of the Fulda monastery from 798. In the historical documents, the place name appears in changing spellings over the centuries: Roden (around 800 to 1262, 1403), Rode (1267, 1317), Roeden (1442), Raden (1445), Rodau (1457), Rode (1567), Rodheym (1577) and Rodheim (1812).
In 1278 the place came with the other communities of the Bachgau to the Electorate of Mainz , where it remained for over five centuries. Landlords in the Radheim district were the monasteries Amorbach , Höchst and Aschaffenburg as well as the Johanniter from Mosbach. The gentlemen from Hanau , von Düdelsheim, von Wasen and Schrautenbach also had goods and authorizations in Radheim.
Modern times
In Radheim, the Mainz land law , which was formally reintroduced in 1755, was considered to be a particular law , and common law was also valid, unless the Mainz land law contained any special provisions for a particular issue. This special rights retained its validity and throughout the 19th century during the affiliation of the area to the Grand Duchy of Hesse and was only on January 1, 1900 by the same across the whole German Reich current Civil Code replaced.
After the dissolution of the Mainz electoral state, Radheim first came to the Grand Duchy of Frankfurt, but was annexed to the Grand Duchy of Hesse by swap in 1817.
The statistical-topographical-historical description of the Grand Duchy of Hesse reports on Radheim in 1829:
»Radheim (L. Bez. Dieburg) cath. Branch village; is on the Welzbach 3 St. from Dieburg and 1 1 ⁄ 2 St. from Umstadt on a gentle hill. The place has 76 houses and 457 inhabitants, except for 16 Luth. are catholic. In the district there is a break of red sandstones, and on the nearby heights are Roman burial mounds. - This place, which probably derives its name from Rado or Rato, was formerly surrounded by a wall and the seat of several noble families; There are still some ancient stone, formerly noble buildings. The lords of Schrautenbach were patronage and tithe lords of Radheim. The church to which h. Laurentius consecrated, has the year 1578 in a later walled-in coat of arms of the Prince of Mainz. A votive altar is walled up in the churchyard wall. Radheim came from Baiern in 1817 through an exchange with Hesse. "
Radheim, which used to be dominated by agriculture, is now a residential community with almost 1000 inhabitants.
