Simtshausen is a district of the Münchhausen community in the Marburg-Biedenkopf district in Central Hesse . The district consists of three parts: Obersimtshausen, Mittelimtshausen and Simtshausen (also called "Schlagpfütze"). Untersimtshausen is close to Mittelimtshausen, but belongs to Niederasphe .

Geographical location

Simtshausen is located in Central Hesse on the southern foothills of the Rothaargebirge and the Ederbergland in the Burgwald . The Wetschaft flows through the district, along the federal road 252 to the east .

history

The place Obersimtshausen was first mentioned in writing around 1220 under the place name Siegemannshausen , namely in the male loan register of the Wetter monastery . The community Simtshausen was formed on October 29, 1925 from the districts of Ober-, Mittel-Simtshausen and Schlagpfütze as well as the Simtshausen train station. Up until then, the districts belonged to the community of Münchhausen (am Christenberg) .

Simtshausen was incorporated into the municipality of Münchhausen as part of the regional reform in Hesse by state law on July 1, 1974.

Territorial history and administration

The following list gives an overview of the territories in which Simtshausen was located and the administrative units to which it was subordinate:

Courts since 1821

With an edict of June 29, 1821, administration and justice were separated in Kurhessen. Now judicial offices were responsible for the first instance jurisdiction, the administration was taken over by the districts. The Marburg district was responsible for the administration and the Wetter judicial office was the court of first instance responsible for the districts of Simtshausen. The Supreme Court was the Higher Appeal Court in Kassel . The higher court of Marburg was subordinate to the province of Upper Hesse. It was the second instance for the judicial offices.

After the annexation of Kurhessen by Prussia, the judicial office of Wetter became the royal Prussian district court of Wetter in 1867 . In June 1867, a royal ordinance was issued that reorganized the court system in the areas that belonged to the former Electorate of Hesse. The previous judicial authorities were to be repealed and replaced by local courts in the first, district courts in the second and an appeal court in the third instance. In the course of this, on September 1, 1867, the previous judicial office was renamed the Wetter District Court. The courts of the higher authorities were the Marburg District Court and the Kassel Court of Appeal .

Even with the entry into force of the Courts Constitution Act (GVG) in 1877, the district court remained in existence. In 1943 the district court became a branch of the district court of Marburg and in 1946 the branch was also closed. The district of the district court of Wetter merged with the district of the district court of Marburg.

In the Federal Republic of Germany, the superordinate instances are the Marburg Regional Court , the Frankfurt am Main Higher Regional Court and the Federal Court of Justice as the last instance.
