Reutberg is a district of Gunzenhausen in the central Franconian district of Weißenburg-Gunzenhausen .

location

The district is located southeast of Alt-Gunzenhausen between the Burgstall and an airfield in the north, the Gunzenhausen district of Oberasbach in the east and the Gunzenhausen district of Weinberg in the south.

Place name

The place name means a settlement on a mountain that was made arable by "Reuten", that is, by digging up root stocks, so it was previously forested.

history

After the end of Roman times north of the Danube, caused by the Alemanni storms in 233, the area of ​​the later Reutbergflur was reforested in the 3rd and 4th centuries and in the 8th century it was used by the Gunzenhausen monastery to use wood, but remained the royal forest. In the 12th century the royal forest was cleared to the Counts of Truhendingen .

The wasteland is first mentioned in a document in 1368, when Wilhelm von Seckendorff sold the “Hofe called der Reutperg” to Burgrave Friedrich von Nürnberg with the city of Gunzenhausen. In 1411 we learn that Burgrave Friedrich gave "Rewtberg" to an Ulrich Hwrener as a fief . Eleven years later, when Burgrave Friedrich VI. of Nuremberg ruled as the first margrave of Brandenburg-Ansbach, the Himmelthron monastery approved an exchange of goods between Friedrich and the city of Gunzenhausen, in which the margrave received the small tithe of the Reutberg court. In 1454 Ulrich Metzler, a citizen of Gunzenhausen, is the owner of the farm, which is known as the Schafhof; He pays taxes to Gunzenhausen. In the period that followed, other Brandenburg fiefdoms appeared by name in documents and books. The Reutberg sheep farm later came into the possession of the city of Gunzenhausen; so in 1732 the property belonged to the city, valid for the Brandenburg caste office Gunzenhausen and parish to Gunzenhausen. The bailiwick and the high level of jurisdiction lay with the Margravial Oberamt Gunzenhausen.

In 1792 the Reutberg-Hof and Gunzenhausen became Prussian . A subject family belonging to the Prussian Ansbach Oberamt Gunzenhausen is recorded for the "Reitberg" in 1801. A quarry belonging to the Reutberg property is now also mentioned. On January 1, 1806, the Reutberg-Hof with Gunzenhausen became Bavarian. From 1808 he belonged to the tax district Gunzenhausen in the district court and rent office district Gunzenhausen.

During the next municipal reform in 1818, Gunzenhausen and with the city also Reutberg were part of the new district office of Gunzenhausen (formed from the district courts Gunzenhausen and Heidenheim) of the also new Rezatkreis , which was renamed Central Franconia on January 1, 1838 .

In 1818 twelve people lived in the Reutberg property and in 1824 eight. In 1829 the Reutberg sheep farm, a quarter of an hour away from Gunzenhausen, was inhabited by a family of twelve. In 1867 there are talk of three buildings in which seven people pastured according to Cronheim live.

In 1950 there were 14 residents in two houses. In the course of the district reform in Bavaria , which came into force on July 1, 1972, Gunzenhausen lost the district seat and has since been a town in the new district of Weißenburg in Bavaria, whose name was officially changed to the district of Weißenburg-Gunzenhausen on May 1, 1973 .

In 1965 a glider airfield was put into operation on the Reutberg . Gunzenhausen's new development areas have emerged on Reutberg. There is also a district hospital built between 1974 and 1976. The "Reutberg elevated tank" supplies Gunzenhausen with drinking water. The current district is served by the city bus route 641.
