history

On September 6, 1933, the Hessian state government, under the leadership of State Culture Councilor Hans Reich, issued the guidelines for the construction of Riedrode. The plan was to build 28 dairy farms , each with 30 acres of land on drained marshland. On May 1, 1935, the Reich Labor Service began building the first houses . The first settlers moved in from October 1935, the majority of them impoverished farmers from the Vogelsberg . On July 1, 1936, Riedrode was inaugurated as the first Hessian hereditary farm village with a name and coat of arms. The district was formed from parts of Bürstadt as well as Klein-Hausen and Lorsch Forest.

On September 12, 1936, David Lloyd George , the British Prime Minister of World War I, also came to Riedrode on the occasion of a visit to Adolf Hitler.

In 1937 the community center was built (bakery, volunteer fire brigade , milk collection, kindergarten and youth room) and the one-class elementary school started teaching with 42 students. From May 15, 1939, trains stopped at the new Riedrode stop . The Second World War ended for Riedrode on March 26, 1945 with the occupation by American troops. In 1954 the first development plan for a new building area in Riedrode was decided.

In 1961 the size of the district was given as 438  ha , 112 ha of which were forest.

The previously independent municipality of Riedrode joined the city of Bürstadt voluntarily as part of the regional reform in Hesse on July 1, 1971 with a border change agreement. For Riedrode, a local district with a local advisory board and local councilor was formed. In 1979/80 the school house was demolished and a village community center was inaugurated in its place in 1981 .

Administration and courts

When it was founded, Riedrode was part of the Bensheim district . The Hessian provinces of Starkenburg, Rheinhessen and Upper Hesse were abolished in 1937 after the provincial and district assemblies were dissolved in 1936. On November 1, 1938, a comprehensive regional reform came into force at the district level. In the former province of Starkenburg, the Bensheim district was particularly affected, as it was dissolved and most of it was added to the Heppenheim district. The district of Heppenheim also took over the legal successor to the district of Bensheim and was given the new name Landkreis Bergstrasse . Riedrode, however, came to the Worms district , which at that time belonged to Rheinhessen . With the redistribution of the federal states by the victorious powers of World War II after 1945, Rheinhessen west of the Rhine was added to the state of Rhineland-Palatinate and Riedrode was integrated into the Bergstrasse district.

The competent jurisdiction of the first instance lies with the District Court of Lampertheim .
