history

In a document issued in Mainz , dated September 22nd, 1232, a wood mill in Steinbach is mentioned. On March 11, 1283 Steinbach was first mentioned by a Godelindis in the necrology of the collegiate church of St. Peter and Alexander in Aschaffenburg .

At the end of the old empire, the place Steinbach belonged to the Vogteiamt Kaltenberg in the Obererzstift of the Electorate of Mainz. In 1812 Steinbach was already a municipality with 46 fireplaces and 135 souls (residents). Maire was Jacob Deller; his adjunct was called Adam Lauer. At the time, Mairie Steinbach belonged to the District Fairie Kaltenberg of the Aschaffenburg department in the Grand Duchy of Frankfurt. After the transition to the Kingdom of Bavaria on October 1, 1814, the former Vogteiamt or Districtsmairie Kaltenberg became the Kaltenberg district court and the village of Steinbach became the rural community of Steinbach with the municipal edict of May 17, 1818. With the very highest resolutions of June 30, 1828 and January 8 and 14, 1829, the Kaltenberg district court was dissolved and the Steinbach community assigned to the Aschaffenburg district court.

In the statistical-topographical handbook for the Lower Main district of 1830, Steinbach is named as a branch of the Johannesberg School and Church and with the then common "behind the sun". This is explained by pointing out that Steinbach lies in such a narrow and deep valley that the sun only shows itself there for a short time.

On July 1, 1862, the Aschaffenburg district office was formed from the Aschaffenburg district court , on whose administrative territory Steinbach was located. In 1939, as everywhere in the German Reich, the designation district was introduced. Steinbach was now one of the 33 communities in the old district of Aschaffenburg . On July 1, 1972, this merged with the Alzenau district in Lower Franconia to form the new Aschaffenburg district.

The school was built in 1877 and the church was consecrated on September 23, 1951 by Bishop Julius Döpfner and Pastor Heinrich Geysa. On January 1, 1978, the previously independent municipality of Steinbach was incorporated into Johannesberg as part of the regional reform in Bavaria , although the majority of Steinbach residents had voted in favor of incorporation into Aschaffenburg.

Mayor of Steinbach

From 1800 to 1818 Jacob Deller held the position of mayor; the official title at that time was Maire or mayor. After that, the data are incomplete: in 1825 a Fecher was mentioned as mayor, in 1833 a JG Jucker. From 1855 onwards, the mayor's successes can be fully traced. Georg Geis was in office until 1876. He was succeeded by Mayor Herzog in 1877, and in 1877 a certain Junker succeeded Herzog. This was in office until 1882, followed by Valentin Kunkel (1882–1911), Heinrich Geis (1912–1918), Sauer (1918–1919), Jacob Freund (1919–1924), Kunkel (1925–1926), Johann Kehrer (1926), Simon Glaser (1926–1945) and August Kunkel (1945–1965). Johann Sauer was the last mayor until 1978 when it was incorporated into Johannesberg.
