Geographical location
Selbach is located in the Sachsenhausen district , at the west foot of the Waldecker Forest about 4 km (as the crow flies ) north-north-west of the Waldecker core city between the Waldecker districts Netze in the southeast and Sachsenhausen in the west. It is traversed by the Reiherbach , which is also called Selbach in the village region . To the northeast and east is the Habichtswald Nature Park and to the south and southwest of the Kellerwald-Edersee Nature Park with the Edersee .
history
The place was first mentioned as Hofgut Silbach in 1207 in the property registers of the Werbe monastery . It was probably a fiefdom of the Lords of Selebach , whose documentary mentions can be found from 1229 to 1404. In 1229 a moated castle is mentioned that was built by the Lords of Selebach; there is nothing left of this castle. From 1380 Count Heinrich VI. von Waldeck in Selbach a farm. This was in the possession of the Lords of Schaden from 1477 and fell back to the county of Waldeck when the male line died out in 1582. After the abolition of the Werbe and Marienthal monasteries in Netze , the estate grew and until 1695 was a fiefdom of the von Tedesalt and their heirs.
The old moated castle was probably demolished in 1701, and in its place Count Friedrich Anton Ulrich , son of the ruling Count Christian Ludwig von Waldeck , had the Friedrichsthal hunting lodge built, which was immediately north of the Netzer zoo .
At the beginning of the 19th century the estate was converted into a domain . In 1922 this was split up and repopulated. The small village arose as it still appears today. The former hunting lodge is now privately owned.
Selbach Viaduct
About 650 m (as the crow flies) southeast of the village is the Selbach Viaduct (also known as the Reiherbach Bridge), built between 1910 and 1913 , a 193 m long and 28 m high, seven-arched railway bridge on the Ederseebahn, which was closed in 1995 . During the Second World War it was badly damaged in an attack in 1945, so that train traffic had to be suspended until 1946. Since autumn 2012 it has served as a bridge for the Ederseebahn cycle path .
