location

The district lies long in a valley basin, surrounded by small elevations, west of Treysa and southeast of Gilserberg. Several side valleys and wooded heights (up to 400 m above sea level) give the place a certain charm. The location is between 300 and 340 m above sea level. Numerous springs in the side valleys, the watercourse of the Katzbach , the Fischbach and the Wärmelsbach provide plenty of water along the state road 3155.

history

The place was first mentioned in 1224 as Sassenhusen , when the ore monastery of Mainz was exchanged for the monastery in Haina for income from the monastery in Niederofleiden and Haarhausen . In 1233, the Haina monastery exchanged all ownership rights in the village of Sachsenhausen with the Counts of Ziegenhain , with the exception of the farmers' forest rights. Around 1240 Burkhard IV. Von Querfurt , Burgrave of Magdeburg , and his wife Sophie confirmed to the Haina monastery that Sophie's father, Count Friedrich von Wildungen , had given property to the Haina monastery in the village of Sachsenhausen with the consent of his heirs. In 1300 the family of the Neustadt citizen Ludwig, called Hane, bequeathed all their property in the village and district of Sachsenhausen to the Haina monastery. In documents from the county of Ziegenhain, the place is mentioned as Sassinhusen in 1368. He belonged to the newly founded Ziegenhainer office Schönstein . In 1374, the Haina monastery lent its two estates in Sachsenhausen to a Wigand Bornmann and his heirs as a state settlement .

In 1450 the village and the entire county of Ziegenhain came to the Landgraviate of Hesse . In 1576 the red tenth and 11 half hooves were landgraves in Sachsenhausen. Around 1585, the tithes of Sachsenhausen belonged to Lords von Urff and von Gilsa each half. The former Unterdorf disappeared as a settlement long before the Thirty Years War ; the residents had moved to the upper village for their own protection. The first church was also built there. In 1543 a Protestant pastor, a Johann Lotze, is mentioned for the first time.

On December 31, 1971, the previously independent place was incorporated into the community of Gilserberg.
