history

Rudelsdorf was first mentioned in a document in 1317 as Rudolfesdorf in the Henneberg fiefdom index . Konrad von Heßberg appears in it as the owner of fiefdoms . Feudal lord was Count Berthold von Henneberg . The manor ruled the village. With the exception of two farms, all of the Rudelsdorfers were owed to him. In 1601 it was transformed into a sons and daughters. Many village affairs required the approval of the manor owners.

Lying in the domain of the Henneberger , the place came in 1353 with the Coburg Land by inheritance to the Wettins and was thus part of the Electorate of Saxony from 1485 , from which the Duchy of Saxony-Coburg later emerged.

At the beginning of the Thirty Years War there were 16 inhabited houses in Rudelsdorf, in 1658 there were six. In 1636 27 of the 60 inhabitants died as a result of the war.

The manor belonged to a castle, the core of which was built around 1300 and which was replaced in 1783 by a new building with a moat and drawbridge. The castle owners changed frequently. The families of their von Hessberg, the Marshal von Greif and the Rühle von Lilienstern were, however, often lords of the castle. In 1801 the councilor Adolf von Schultes acquired the estate, in 1809 the sovereign gave him permission to break up the manor and to divide it among the peasants. The finally dilapidated castle was demolished in 1852. There is still a vaulted cellar and surrounding walls.

In 1855 Rudelsdorf had 67 residents who lived in 15 houses. There was also a bull, 18 oxen, 8 team cows, 26 dairy cows, 159 sheep and 63 pigs. In 1800 a community brewery was built and in 1842 a new community baking house.

In a referendum on November 30, 1919, seven citizens of Rudelsdorf voted for the Free State of Coburg to join the Thuringian state and 28 against. From July 1, 1920, Rudelsdorf also belonged to the Free State of Bavaria . In the Reichstag elections on November 6, 1932 , 29 out of 33 eligible voters went to the polls and 19 of them voted for the NSDAP .

In the First World War and the lost World War II, three packs Dorfer Roßfelder their lives.

Beer was brewed in the community brewery from 1933 to 1959. In 1971 the building was demolished for the construction of a new fire station .

On April 10th, 30 US soldiers occupied the village for a few days. From 1945 to 1989 the inner-German border separated Rudelsdorf from its neighboring village in Thuringia, Seidingstadt . Rudelsdorf has been a parish after Roßfeld since the 14th century. Accordingly, the children went to school there, which was closed in 1968. On January 1, 1970 Rudelsdorf became Rodacher district.
