history

Reinhards belonged to the county of Hanau-Munzenberg . There it was assigned to the office of Schlüchtern . The County of Hanau-Münzenberg initially joined the Lutheran denomination during the Reformation , and was reformed from 1597 .

With the death of the last Hanau count, Johann Reinhard III. , Reinhards fell in 1736 with the entire county of Hanau-Munzenberg to the Landgraviate of Hessen-Kassel , which in 1803 became the Electorate of Hesse .

During the Napoleonic era, Reinhards 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, under which the Electorate of Hesse was divided into four provinces and 22 districts, Reinhards belonged to the district of Schlüchtern . In 1866 the electorate was annexed by Prussia after the Austro-Prussian War and became part of the federal state of Hesse after the Second World War . Reinhards changed the administrations to which it belonged accordingly.

Territorial reform

In the course of the regional reform in Hesse , the place was incorporated into the municipality of Freiensteinau by state law and thus changed to the Vogelsbergkreis.
