History

The place is first mentioned in a document in 1369, when Eckehard von Felsberg sold a Pfenniggülte zu Surinborg to Hans von Glasewald in Fritzlar . At that time the place was desolate and had obviously been inhabited beforehand. Also in 1393 the place was desolate, as archbishop Konrad II. Of Mainz Kunzmann of Falkenberg to the deserted village of Surbourg belehnte . Soon after, a court again seems to have existed on the site: in 1402 the landgrave ministerial and land vogt of Niederhessen Friedrich von Felsberg sold his half to the estate and court of Surenburg , which had previously been transferred to Hans von Glasewald, to Landgrave Hermann II . of Hessen . The Hersfeld Abbey had income in Sauerburg and in 1477 enfeoffed the Lords of Falkenberg with tithes to Surenborgk ; the Falkenbergers held this enfeoffment until 1606. In 1531 the place is referred to as a courtyard, in 1578 as a courtyard and manorial Vorwerk in the Landgrave of Hesse, Homberg .

In the 18th century, Sauerburg was a manorial property that had been lent out according to current law, and in 1786 it came to Hermann Römer, who remained in his family until 1915. In 1825 the manor district was combined with the municipality of Mardorf , and later with Mörshausen. In 1835 Sauerburg, which at that time had 23 inhabitants, became an inheritance, and in 1848 it became the property of Johann Römer by law.
