Until the 19th century

A first documented reference to a settlement (called "Uuinedisheim") comes from the year 741. The place name contains the personal name Winid . The common derivation from viticulture is wrong. The document shows that there was a church in the village that was dedicated to Saint Martin . On the occasion of the establishment of the diocese Diocese of Würzburg , Duke Karlmann donated the St. Martin's Church in Windsheim to the cathedral. The original of this document is no longer available, as it was burned in the fire of the cathedral in Würzburg in 874. The repetition and confirmation by Emperor Ludwig the Pious is documented by the document from 822. It was confirmed that the former royal parish church of St. Martin belonged to the Bishop of Würzburg. The church is said to have been consecrated in 750 by Burkard , Würzburg's first bishop.

The Martinskirche was mentioned for the last time in a document in 889. It can be inferred from an original settlement of Kleinwindsheim . The current town of Windsheim was founded a little later as a second settlement. Both settlements existed side by side for centuries. The second church (built 1190–1216) stood separate from the original settlement where the town church of St. Kilian now stands.

Imperial city of Windsheim

Windsheim was still referred to as a market ( forum ) in 1234 . In 1248 it was named an imperial city by Emperor Friedrich II , which was directly subordinate to the emperor. Windsheim is not yet listed in the imperial tax register of 1241 .

In 1343 Ludwig IV visited Windsheim and confirmed the privileges granted by his predecessors to the city, which a year later entered into close political ties with the imperial city of Nuremberg ; also Emperor Sigismund in 1413.

The monastery Windheim had been donated already 1291st The Heilsbronn Monastery acquired a farm in Windsheim in 1304, which served the Heilbronn monks as quarters. In 1313 a garden adjoining the courtyard was exchanged for the monastery. The respective leaseholder also ran the farm as a pub.

During the city ​​war , Windsheim, which had already burned down in 1381, was besieged by Neustädtern. In 1499 there was another train against Windsheim and the wine tower was laid down.

A Latin school was founded in 1393/1402 . The Teutonic Order worked in Windsheim, the Coming Virnsberg operated in Pastoriusstrasse. 14 a town house of the "Teutschherren". In 1509, Tilman Riemenschneider created the twelve messenger altar for the Kilian's Church in Windsheim.

On the Knight's Day in Windsheim in 1512, a letter from the Count Palatinate was read out, in which he said that he had not been involved in the overthrow of Konrad Schott . From 1500 Windsheim belonged to the Franconian Empire , which convened numerous district assemblies there. Since 1522, preaching in the manner of Luther has been in Windsheim and as early as 1524/25 the Reformation was introduced in the free imperial city of Windsheim and probably also in the Windsheim deanery district . Also in 1525 the peasant groups Florian Geyers and Gregors von Burgbernheim defeated the Margrave Casimir near Windsheim. In 1529 representatives of Windsheim took part in the Reichstag in Speyer , who belonged to the Protestant minority there (see Protestation ). Because of the possible consequences, this was, as for Weißenburg, a courageous and daring step for the small imperial cities. In 1530 Windsheim joined the Reichstag, along with the imperial cities of Weißenburg , Heilbronn and Kempten, of the Augsburg Confession , which Mayor Hagelstein signed.

Witch trials were also carried out in Windsheim; between 1596 and 1597 a total of 25 women were cremated in the city.

During the Thirty Years' War in 1632 the Swedes under Gustav II Adolf were in the city twice . After the war, Emperor Leopold I visited the city in 1659 ; in addition, Emperor Joseph I traveled through the city in the same year. A large part of the city was destroyed in a fire in 1730.

Pietism , which emerged in the 17th century, had also spread in the Aischgrund, especially from Windsheim . At the beginning of this movement stood the pastor Johann Heinrich Horb in Windheim , at the end at the beginning of the 18th century the mayor Tobias Schumberg.

Towards the end of the 18th century there were around 570 properties in Windsheim. The imperial city of Windsheim exercised the high court . The individual properties were subordinate to different landlords : approx. 568 properties of the imperial city of Windsheim and two of the Brandenburg-Bayreuth caste office Windsheim .

Windsheim District Court

In the course of mediatization , Windsheim lost its status as an imperial city in 1802 and was awarded to Bavaria. After a short Prussian interlude (1804), the city finally became part of the Kingdom of Bavaria in 1810 .

As part of the municipal edict, the Windsheim tax district was formed in 1811 , to which Kleinwindsheimermühle, Mittelmühle, Neumühle, Obermühle and Walkmühle belonged. The municipal community formed in 1813 was congruent with the tax district. In administration and jurisdiction it was subordinate to the District Court of Windsheim and in financial administration to the Ipsheim Rent Office . With the second community edict (1818) Windsheim was elevated to a town with magistrate II class. From 1862 Windsheim was administered by the Uffenheim District Office (renamed the Uffenheim District in 1938 ) and from 1856 by the Windsheim Rent Office ( renamed Windsheim Tax Office in 1920 ). The jurisdiction remained with the District Court of Windsheim until 1879, from 1880 District Court of Windsheim . In 1961 the municipality had an area of ​​13.312 km².

The Windsheimer Zeitung was founded in 1849.

20th and 21st centuries

The brine springs in Windsheim were first described in 1752 by Wilhelm Simon Carl Hirsching as "Gesundbrunnen auff dem Kehrenberg". Brine springs were drilled in 1902 and 1907, and the Kurhaus was built in 1906. There in 1942/43 the businessman and co-founder of the Neustädter local group of the NSDAP and SS- Hauptsturmführer Hans Göss (1894-1948) ran a camp of the Volksdeutsche Mittelstelle . On June 20, 1961, Windsheim was named a bath.

On July 1, 1972, the previous district of Uffenheim was dissolved. Bad Windsheim came to the enlarged district of Neustadt an der Aisch, which was given the name of Neustadt an der Aisch-Bad Windsheim district on May 1, 1973 .

In 1982 the Franconian Open Air Museum was opened. In the following years further facilities were created, so in 1999 the spa and congress center followed and in 2005 with the Franken-Therme a thermal bathing area with wellness and sauna area.
