history

In the forest there are barrows from the period from 2000 to 1500 BC. Chr.

The oldest surviving mention of the village dates back to March 20, 930 as Ruommothuson and Ruomuothusun . This place name is interpreted as belonging to the houses of glory .

In the Holy Roman Empire , the village belonged to the Freigericht Kaichen , which came under the rule of the Burggrafschaft Friedberg in the 15th century . As part of the Kaichen Free Court, Rommelhausen fell to the Grand Duchy of Hesse in 1806 . From 1874 to 1972 Rommelhausen was part of the Büdingen district .

In Rommelhausen, the particular law of the Kaichen Free Court, the Friedberger Police Regulations, applied . In 1679 it was renewed and printed. This is the first time that it can be put into writing. She mainly dealt with administrative , police and regulatory law . In this respect, the Solms land law remained the main source of law for the broad area of civil law . The Common Law was, moreover, if all these regulations did not contain provisions for a fact. This legal situation remained in force in the 19th century after Rommelhausen was transferred to the Grand Duchy of Hesse. It was not until the Civil Code of January 1, 1900, which was uniformly valid throughout the German Reich , that this old particular law was suspended.

On December 31, 1971, Rommelhausen was incorporated into the new Limeshain community.

The Upper German-Raetian Limes can still be seen in the forest.
