history

Sailach was first mentioned in a document in 1286 as Selhech . Since the 14th century the place name has been Seilach or Sailach . In 1681 the place consisted of 19 houses and 12 barns, in 1819 of 27 residential buildings and 15 outbuildings.

In 2010 the place had 54 houses with 38 outbuildings, including an active farm. Sailach is an elongated Waldhufendorf , in contrast to the hamlet of Obersteinbach , which is a typical hamlet settlement.

The place name probably comes from the local dialect, in which the diminutive Seelein (zu See ) is pronounced as Säälich [ ˈsɛːˌliχ ]. Old parish books speak of 60 lakes on the Obersteinbach / Sailach mark. Although the water-impermeable layers of the marl layers above and below the silica sandstone provided only low agricultural yields, they favor the construction of fish ponds.

Special buildings

In the former town center there is the Jagdscheune or Zehntscheuer with its large arched entrance on the Jagdsteige, which dates from the 16th / 17th Century. The shepherd's house, a former poor house, at the southern exit of the village towards Neunkirchen with an inscription stone that bears the date 1792 should also be mentioned. A bell tower was added to it in the 1930s.
