history

Beginnings

The oldest traces of settlement in the Reiterswiesen area come from the Neolithic Age in the form of arrowheads, pottery shards and stone tools . The agriculture practiced by the band ceramists who settled here required temporary sedentarism; Then there was livestock farming. A basalt battle ax found on the Reiterswiesen Finsterberg comes from the bell beaker culture . Thirty in the Beilberg located dolmens originate most likely from the Hallstatt period . Numerous sherds of Celtic origin found in the Reiterswiesen area come from the Latène period .

During the Roman Empire, the Celtic proportion of the population declined in favor of Elbe Germanic immigrants; In the course of the 5th century the proportion of Thuringians in the population increased, but they - like the Elbe Germanic Alemanni - were displaced somewhat by the Franks in 531 in the battle of the Unstrut in Saxony against King Theuderich I.

The Franconian influence increased in 741 with the establishment of the diocese of Würzburg .

Reiterswiesen is guaranteed in writing for the first time on March 4th, 1234. The name Ritanswiesen at the time most likely refers to a person named R (a) itant , who was mentioned three times in the region between 802 and 837. This assumption is supported by the fact that, due to the genitive form of the name, the spelling Ritan (t) eswisen would actually have been expected for the time of the first mention (1234) ; With Ritanswiesen , however, the spelling of the 9th century was used when it was first mentioned.

The current nickname for the Reiterswiesen residents, Linsenspitzer , comes from the time when the local farmers were growing lentils. Accordingly, the Reiterswiesen farmers spent their Sundays in the fields and watched the lentils grow. When outsiders came by and asked with an ironic undertone: “What are the lentils doing?”, The local farmer's answer was: “They're already sharpening!”.

middle Ages

Count Otto von Botenlauben (left)

The earliest evidence of the rule of the Henneberger in the region and thus also over Reiterswiesen comes from the end of the 11th century. Possibly it was also their burgrave Berthold I who started the construction of the castle Botenlauben , which was probably built in the 12th century . For the year 1206, the Henneberg burgrave Otto I is guaranteed in a Würzburg document as "Otto de Bodenlouben" . After long years of wandering, he settled down with his wife Beatrix von Courtenay , whom he stayed in the Orient following the failed crusade of Henry VI. had got to know, settled at the castle in 1220. In 1231 - the year of death of Otto's cousin, Saint Elisabeth of Thuringia - Otto and Beatrix began building the Frauenroth monastery (according to legend, Beatrix had promised to build a monastery at the place where her wind-blown veil was found). After their heir, their son Otto II, joined the Teutonic Order , Otto and Beatrix sold the messenger arbor to Bishop Hermann I of Lobdeburg on March 4, 1234 ; Otto and Beatrix were able to finance the maintenance of the Frauenroth monastery through the sale. After acquiring the castle, the bishop set up the office of messenger arbor to limit the Henneberg supremacy.

Due to financial difficulties, the office and castle were pledged several times by the Würzburg prince-bishops over the next few centuries. In this context, violent clashes broke out in 1402 by the von Hutten brothers, who had been deposed by the prince-bishop for suppressing their subjects and who, in revenge , undertook several raids in the office of Bodenlauben .

While the residents of the hamlet of Unterbodenlauben below the castle probably attended the services in the castle chapel of the Bodenlaube , nothing is known about the early medieval situation in Reiterswiesen. It was not until 1464 that Peter von Herbilstadt , bailiff of the Bodenlaube , said that under Count Friedrich I. von Henneberg (1402–1422) believers from Reiterswiesen, among others, attended the service in a church in the neighboring village of Arnshausen , which was consecrated to the Apostles Peter and Paul , which had become a permanent church village around 1230/1240 under the influence of the Würzburg bishopric. Since the city of Kissingen belonged to the bishopric from 1394 and gained in importance, the parish of Arnshausen was dissolved in 1464; their last known pastors were, for example Peter von Herbilstadt, including a Johannes Mörlein and a Peter von Werpergshausen. A connecting road which is known today as the " Dead Path " and was used to transport the deceased from Reiterswiesen to the cemetery in Arnshausen reminds us of the time of the common parish of Reiterswiesen and Arnshausen .

Reiterswiesen at the beginning of modern times

Later Reiterswiesen was also affected by the peasant uprising of 1525 and its bloody suppression. With the peasant revolt, the Botenlauben castle began to fall into ruin after it had been stormed by farmers from Aura an der Saale (according to legend, the peasants were let in by the treacherous castle cook, who blinded and killed him; since then, his spirit has been said to rise on stormy nights wandering around the castle and chopping on his wooden board). The chapel in the north tower seems to have remained undamaged even after the peasant uprising, because from the year 1584 it is known that the pastor in Kissingen was obliged to read two masses per week on the floor arbor.

Between 1573 and 1617 Prince-Bishop Julius Echter von Mespelbrunn issued several ordinances, among other things with regard to logging in the forest, the establishment of a village guard, the use of fire and the cultivation of arable land.

On the basis of two spiritual jurisprudence (from 1584 and 1595), a statement by the parish administrator Wolfgang Scharpff (from 1598) as well as entries in the Bibra's loan book (1603) and the church register (1620), the existence of a church consecrated to St. Lawrence of Rome suspect. However, this was soon too small and poorly equipped, so that Prince-Bishop Julius Echter von Mespelbrunn gave the order for a new church to be built in October 1607. In 1608 the new church, also dedicated to St. Lawrence, was consecrated. The Kissingen pastor was supposed to hold church services alternately in Reiterswiesen and Arnshausen.

After further devastation in the village and on the gazebo by the Second Margrave War , 115 inhabitants from Reiterswiesen and Arnshausen fell victim to between September 1610 and August 1611 . The Reiterswiesen people who fell victim to the plague are listed in detail in the Reiterswiesen church register from 1610 to 1702.

Former town hall.

Kreuzschlepper in memory of Johann Mauder.

The church register also documents the effects of the Thirty Years' War . It is reported that in September and October 1632, for fear of Swedish troops, burials took place without priests. Another plague epidemic occurred - during the war - in 1634. For the year 1637, the Kissingen pastor Pistorius reports of an immeasurable famine during which people were forced to eat dogs and cats.

In 1703 the Reiterswiesen town hall was built in what is now the town center . The year of origin can only be deduced from the year carved on a corner stand; documentary evidence is missing. From that year it also served as a school building. In 1865 a separate school building was built behind the town hall, the "large school", which was replaced in 1905 by the "small school". Today the “Dorfstube”, a village history museum, is located in the town hall building from 1703.

On January 27, 1721, Mayor Johann Mauder died when, according to the death register, he split an oak tree and injured himself near the genital area. A cross tug at today's exit from Reiterswiesen commemorates the former mayor of the village.

In a village plan from 1741 Reiterswiesen was still a street village with small bulges and consisted of the parts Hüßles, Mitteldorf and Oberndorf. At a certain distance from Reiterswiesener Durchgangsstrasse, today's Kissinger Strasse , starting from the location of today's St. Laurentius Church , there was a small group of houses called Beglawe ( Bodenlauben ). Contrary to the long prevailing opinion that there has been a separate cemetery for Reiterswiesen since 1820, it probably already existed before: The Reiterswiesener Totenmatrikel reports of two burials in 1623. For 1741, the Reiterswiesen measurement table shows a cemetery at Flurstrasse 8 mentioned. It is possible that a new cemetery was built by Prince-Bishop Julius Echter von Mespelbrunn in 1608 when the church was rebuilt.

Bavarian Kingdom

The place owned by the Hochstift Würzburg passed to Bavaria in 1802/03.

After Reiterswiesen and Arnshausen complained several times (on August 12, 1643, November 28, 1652 and September 28, 1664) that there was no chaplain in Kissingen and therefore no church services were held in the two villages, in June 1665 a spiritual Council minutes stipulated that a Kissingen chaplain would continue to hold church services in Reiterswiesen and Arnshausen. But in 1719 both places had to remind the clergy and the bishop of this decree. In 1743 Arnshausen finally became an independent parish. On April 24, 1759, on the instructions of the episcopal ordinariate in Reiterswiesen, a separate chaplaincy was set up; the necessary capital came from the inheritance of the Reiterswiesen brothers Peter and Hans Sieber for an amount of 1,200 guilders. The required document was not issued until 1767 and, after it was lost, reappeared in the clerical office in 1769. However, this had no negative effects on the practical implementation of the Prince-Bishop's decision.

When French revolutionary troops marched in under General François-Joseph Lefebvre as part of the First Coalition War , three residential buildings with outbuildings in Reiterswiesen fell victim to fire; it was the property of the mayor Weisensehl. A group of peasants, also with Reiterswiesen participation, got together and put the French soldiers to flight. Two men from Reiterswiesen (a tailor and a police officer) took part in the Napoleonic campaign against Russia (1812); she and another Reiterswiesener (a day laborer) fought a few years later (1814/1815) in the Wars of Liberation against Napoleon. All three got due to a decision of the kgl.-bay. Government of 1864 a support as veterans.

In 1831 a cholera epidemic came to Germany via the Balkans, Russia and Poland after the Prussian military tried in vain to prevent the pathogen from being transmitted to German territory by locking the eastern border. A protection commission was set up in Reiterswiesen by order of the Euerdorf Regional Court on October 9, 1831. In this context, measures to educate the population and food controls were taken. After the absence of further new illnesses, the Protection Commission was able to cease its activities in February 1833.

In the 1840s and 1850s, the Ballinghain park, named after the doctor, was built under spa doctor Franz Anton von Balling . Due to development, only remnants of Balling's original concept remain.

On August 5, 1862, the Royal District Office of Kissingen ordered the construction of a connecting road between Reiterswiesen and the neighboring town of Rottershausen (this now leads to the " Black Puddle " and the B19 ) by those liable to Reiterswiesen. District path maker Müller intended to drive the already existing, but no longer usable dirt road between the two places . Master bricklayer Georg Fuß promised to get the order, but his - already reduced - cost estimate of 389 guilders and 17 Kreutzers was undercut by a competitor by 11 guilders. Despite an urgent warning from the district office on October 20, 1862, there were delays because not every landowner in the building area wanted to sell his land; In addition, there were differences of opinion between the municipality and the district office with regard to the necessary sewer systems. After certain progress in October 1864, the Reiterswiesener were in the following period - under repeated admonitions from the district office -, among other things, by the necessary commitment of those liable for the harvest, kept from the construction work; There were further delays in 1866 due to the " German War ".

On the occasion of the "German War" Reiterswiesen had, on the instructions of the Kgl. District Court from June 12, 1866 to offer quarters to Bavarian soldiers. When the Arnshausen supervisor Werner wanted a department of the 1st Ulan Regiment destined for Arnshausen to be housed by Grand Duke Nikolaus heir to the throne in Reiterswiesen, Reiterswiesen supervisor Georg Kiesel successfully lodged an objection with the royal district office. Combat operations in Reiterswiesen, during which the Prussians occupied the castle hill, led to the flight of some Reiterswiesener from the village; there was no damage in Reiterswiesen itself. After the victory of the Prussians, the Reiterswiesen community had to provide its soldiers with food. The Prussian demand for five carts hauled by horses or oxen led to resistance from the Reiterswiesen farmers who hid their wagons, against which the Royal Bavarian Army. District Office acted vigorously. Until 1868 there were protracted negotiations between the Reiterswiesen municipal administration and the Kgl. District office for war compensation.

It is possible that the war machinery also caused damage to the road under construction between Reiterswiesen and Rottershausen. In the period that followed, the district office felt compelled to threaten the community with disciplinary sanctions and fines. In the next few years, the community brought out urgent harvesting work and bad weather in winter as an explanation against the admonitions of the district office that the Reiterswiesener happy workers were behind with their work. Finally the construction work was finished in 1868. However, there were further delays when, among other things, due to possible water damage in heavy rainy weather, isolated changes in the route of the road became necessary. After measurements by an expert from the district office and necessary renegotiations with the arable land owners in the building area, the new road was finally inaugurated. Their exact date is unknown; but it took place in late 1874 or early 1875.

In the war of 1870/71 , 16 Reiterswiesener fought on the battlefield; one of them fell.

Since the previous church, consecrated to St. Laurentius of Rome , had become too small for the growing population of Reiterswiesen, construction work on a new St. Laurentius church began on September 5, 1898 ; this was consecrated on June 19, 1900. In 1902 the old St. Laurentius Church was demolished.

First and Second World War

War memorial.

The First World War did not cause any direct damage in Reiterswiesen. 155 Reiterswiesener went to war; 31 of them died. A memorial erected in front of the St.Laurentiuskirche in 1928, which depicts the dragon slayer St.Georg , is intended to commemorate the Reiterswiesener people, who until then were victims of the war as fallen or missing.

The only effects on Reiterswiesen as a result of fighting during the Second World War were, on the one hand, the demolition of the ammunition depot near Rottershausen , which broke windows in Reiterswiesen, and, on the other hand, the fighting on the eastern tree line, during which two German soldiers were killed. After the end of the war, Reiterswiesen had 72 cases of dead and missing.

Reiterswiesen after 1945

In 1954, a new school building was built in Reiterswiesen, as the equipment of the previous school, the so-called "small school" (from 1905), in Arnshäusener Strasse was no longer up to date. The building of the "small school" was converted for residential purposes.

On July 1, 1972, Reiterswiesen became a district of Bad Kissingen in the course of the municipal reform . On the advice of the Reiterswiesen municipal council Peter Deeg, the town refused to be incorporated into Bad Kissingen. However, Deeg changed his mind when Werner Eberth , as the state commissioner for the formation of the new district responsible for the regional reform, was able to convince him of the advantages. The Reiterswiesen municipal council finally voted 8: 3 for the integration. With a participation of 61%, the citizens' survey showed an approval of the incorporation into Bad Kissingen of 59%. According to a retrospective statement by the then local councilor Vinzenz Kiesel, the integration was advantageous for Reiterswiesen, which is expressed, for example, in better implementation of garbage collection and sewer cleaning by the city of Bad Kissingen as well as free maintenance of the dirt roads.

In 1984 the Heimatverein was founded to preserve history and also organizes the castle festival that takes place on the Botenlauben castle ruins . For its 25th anniversary in 2009, the association published an association chronicle as well as a Reiterswiesener reading book "Von Linsenspitzern und Minnesängern ..." with an edition of 500 copies.

From 1994 to 2007 the music festival Umsonst & Draußen took place in Reiterswiesen ; Since 1999, the district has been the venue for the annual off-road fair, Abenteuer & Allrad .

Buildings and plants

Bodenlauben castle ruins

Botenlauben castle ruins .

The Botenlauben castle ruin , located in Reiterswiesen and enthroned above the city of Bad Kissingen , was built in the 12th century. In 1220 Otto von Botenlauben from Henneberg and his wife Beatrix de Courtenay settled here; However, both sold the castle in 1242 and moved to Würzburg. In the course of the following centuries the castle was enfeoffed to aristocrats (until the 19th century).

Due to the devastation during the peasant uprising of 1525 , the complex became a ruin. After it was used as a quarry, an interest in history began to preserve the substance of the complex in the 19th century. The Reiterswiesen Heimatverein, founded in the same year, has been holding the castle festival in September on the Botenlaube since 1984 .

Ballinghain

Bust of Franz Anton von Balling .

In the 40s and 50s of the 19th century, the spa doctor Franz Anton von Balling , who was also interested in horticulture, began building the Ballinghains , a large park that stretched from Bad Kissingen train station to Reiterswiesen. His heirs sold the site in 1889 to the city of Bad Kissingen, which had it redesigned in the following period.

From Balling's original concept, a bust in his honor at the intersection of the bypass road and Reiterswiesener Durchgangsstrasse as well as two benches erected by the sculptor Valentin Weidner and his son Hans Weidner , which are located in the Reiterswiesen area on the edge of the thoroughfare, have been preserved .

The Hübner Bank was donated in 1899 by Ernst Hübner from Halle (Saale) , with which he wanted to thank him for the honorary citizenship awarded after his 25 spa stays in Bad Kissingen (see also the list of honorary citizens of Bad Kissingen ). The Siechen-Bank was donated in 1900 by the privateer Franz Siechen , who, as a 25-time spa guest, also became an honorary citizen of Bad Kissingen and promoted the maintenance of the Ballinghain .

St Laurentius Church

The Saint Laurentius Church .

Already existed in the 16th century in Reiterswiesen a St.Laurentius Church , in the year 1607/08, as it had become too small, by one of Prince Bishop Julius Echter von Mespelbrunn built, also the Holy Lawrence of Rome was replaced consecrated church. From the furnishings of this church, the statue of the "Risen One", the monstrance and the altarpiece created by the sculptor Michael Arnold are still preserved or in use today.

After the previous St. Laurentius Church had become too small, a church building fund began in 1877, which had grown to 23,103 marks by December 18, 1896. As a result, construction work began on September 5, 1898 for today's St.Laurentius Church according to a design by the architect Carl Krampf . The inauguration took place on June 19, 1900.

In 1928, a war memorial depicting the dragon slayer St. George was erected in front of the church in memory of the Reiterswiesen victims (fallen and missing) of the First World War .

From 1981 to 1984 there was extensive interior and exterior renovation of the church.

Elisabeth Chapel

In 1984 the Reiterswiesener Heimatverein decided to set up a "visible symbol" to commemorate the successful 750-year local anniversary celebrated in the same year. Association member Franz Laudenbach had success with his proposal to build the Elisabeth Chapel in honor of Otto von Botenlauben's cousin, St. Elisabeth of Thuringia . Sculptor Riistler made a replica of Tilman Riemenschneider 's depiction of Elisabeth from the Magdalenen Church in Münnerstadt for the chapel .

After the selection of a plot of land on Stöckes , the groundbreaking ceremony took place on May 15, 1986. The chapel, the construction of which was supported by several companies from Bad Kissingen and the surrounding area, was inaugurated on May 24, 1987.

In 2007 the chapel was renovated; In the same year a festival was held here on the occasion of the 800th anniversary of the death of St. Elisabeth.

Club life

The Reiterswiesen club life includes the volunteer fire brigade (founded in 1879) with a fire brigade band , the choral society (founded in 1906), the rifle club (1910), the fruit and horticultural club (founded in 1926), the gymnastics and sports club 1898 eV , the homeland club (Founded: 1986), the carnival association "Fidelia" , local associations of the CSU and the SPD , the soldiers and reservists as well as the Association of German Shepherds .

In addition, there have been various associations in Reiterswiesen over the years that no longer exist: the Spar- und Dahrlehnskassenverein (founded in 1918), the warrior association (founded in 1926) and the Bodenlaube carrier pigeon club .
