geography

The small village of Stausebach with around 500 inhabitants is located northwest of Kirchhain on the northern edge of the Amöneburg basin . The eastern border of the district is partially marked by the river Wohra , south of the place the L3089 and the Main-Weser-Bahn pass. The district of the place is about 190 to 260 m above sea level.

history

The place was first mentioned in 1268 as Stuzenbach . During the Thirty Years' War, the village, like most places in the area, suffered great devastation, which Caspar Preis documented in his contemporary chronicle.

On December 31, 1971, the previously independent municipality of Stausebach was incorporated into the town of Kirchhain as part of the regional reform in Hesse .

Territorial history and administration

The following list gives an overview of the territories in which Stausebach 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 Kirchhain district was responsible for the administration and the Kirchhain Justice Office as the court of first instance for Stausebach. 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 Kirchhain Justice Office.

After the annexation of Kurhessen by Prussia, the justice office became the royal Prussian district court in Kirchhain . 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 The previous judicial authorities were to be repealed and replaced by local courts in the first, district courts in the second and an appeal court in the third instance.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 Kirchhain District Court. The courts of the higher authorities were the Marburg District Court and the Kassel Court of Appeal .

With the entry into force of the Courts Constitution Act of 1879, the district court continued to exist under his name. 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.
