history

Former town hall Schneppenhausen (Graefenhäuser Straße 2)

Objects from the Paleolithic to the younger Iron Age have been found in Schneppenhausen.

In 1211 Schneppenhausen was first mentioned in the goods book (Oculus Memoriae) of the Eberbach monastery ("Alberand von Gerau gave us a meadow near Schneppenhausen in exchange and in return we received a meadow called Betwiese.")

The place was mentioned on November 21, 1225 with Graefenhausen in a document. There a mayor from Schneppenhausen appeared as a witness before an arbitration tribunal. In the 13th century the Counts of Katzenelnbogen had sovereign power over Schneppenhausen. On August 14, 1618 Schneppenhausen sued Braunshardt because the horses were grazing in the Braunshardt district. Numerous houses were burned down in Schneppenhausen during the Thirty Years War . In 1640 there are only eleven families and ten houses left. A year later, only about 20 residents were recorded. There were only ten of 25 houses left. From 1705 the town hall, built in 1605, was used as a school until a schoolhouse was established in 1890. The town hall, which was no longer needed, was sold in private ownership.

Over the centuries the place has been named in historical documents with changing place names . From Sneppenhusen in 1211 via Sneppinhusin (1318), Schneppenhusen (1506) to Schneppenhawsen in 1516.

The statistical-topographical-historical description of the Grand Duchy of Hesse reports on Schneppenhausen in 1829:

»Schneppenhausen (L. Bez. Langen) Lutheran Filialdorf; is 2 1 / 4   St. of long, and consists of 37 houses and 210 inh., which are lutherisch except 2 Kath.. These include 19 farmers, 9 artisans and 9 day laborers. - In 1225 a mayor named Godebaldus appears here as a witness. Philip the Younger, Count von Katzenellenbogen, received Schneppenhausen from his father in 1449 as part of his court household. "

The road between Schneppenhausen and Graefenhausen was built in 1881 or 1888. After the Second World War , in 1952, the drinking and service water supply was switched to public deep wells with pumping stations and in 1964 the sewage treatment plant was put into operation.

The administrative affiliation of Schneppenhausen to the Darmstadt office is documented in 1783. From 1820 to 1821 it then belonged to the Darmstadt District Office , from 1821 to 1832 to the Langen District District , from 1832 to 1848 to the Groß-Gerau District , from 1848 to 1852 during the short time of the administrative districts in the Starkenburg Province to the Administrative District of Darmstadt and from 1852 with the introduction of circles to the Darmstadt district .
