location

Rehehausen is located south of Bad Kösen in the immediate vicinity of Hassenhausen and north of the Sonnendorf district of the city of Bad Sulza in a trough-like depression after the northern floor of the Saale valley near Großheringen . The southern outskirts are only 30 meters from the border with Thuringia .

history

The place was first mentioned on January 27, 1074 as Rugehusen . In 1277 the name Rogehusen followed , in 1525 Rehawsen , and in 1551 it became Regehusen . How it came to the current spelling Rehehausen is not documented.

A fortified Franconian noble seat formed the center of the place after it was founded. The Franks entered the area via the old Poststrasse, an old Heerweg (also called Königsweg or Frankenweg ). The Franks are said to have settled East Germanic Rugians. A row village was created on both sides of the existing stream , which ends in a horseshoe shape on one side. In 1074 Heinrich IV bartered the place to his vassal knight Boto. This is how the place was first mentioned in a document. In some sources a noble family von Rockhausen is mentioned in the 13th century , that its name was based on the place. However, this is only vague and uncertain, as there is also similar information about the town of Rockhausen in Thuringia. In 1268 the first pastor in Rehehausen is named, Mathias, plebanus de Rugehuse (see also Rockhausen (noble family) ). In 1298 the ancestral castle with court, mill, forest and pastures was sold by Berthold von Rogehusen to the Pforta monastery out of necessity . The sold area also included half of the village that was owned by his nephew. In 1540, after the Pforta monastery was closed, the Electoral Saxon Office Pforta was formed, to which the place subsequently belonged. By the resolutions of the Vienna Congress Rehehausen came to Prussia and in 1816 the county Naumburg in the administrative district of Merseburg of the Province of Saxony assigned to the part of the site to the 1944th

On July 1, 1950, Rehehausen was incorporated into Taugwitz . On July 1, 2009, this became part of the newly formed community of Lanitz-Hassel-Tal.

Little is known about the former village church, which was demolished in the 18th century due to its dilapidation. The current village church of Rehehausen was consecrated in 1789 and is a baroque hall church with a mirrored ceiling , galleries and pulpit altar. The west tower was built in 1842. In the church there is a valuable late Baroque organ prospect . In the tower there is a baroque bell, which was cast by Hans Beyer in Weimar in 1684 and is decorated with relief.
