history

Theisau village chapel in 1934

Theisau was probably founded as a Slavic settlement at the end of the 1st millennium AD in predominantly Franconian dominion. The place was first mentioned in writing on April 8, 1251, in a document about a court case of the Archbishop of Bamberg, Heinrich I, on the upper hill near Mainklein. On the same day he also confirmed the donation of the Bamberg inheritance “Disou” to the Langheim monastery by “Ramung Henlein von Plassenberg”. The episcopal property register from 1348 shows that Theisau belonged to the Bishop of Bamberg as part of the Langheim Monastery until 1348 and was pledged to Iring von Redwitz .

On January 7, 1698, the first village and community ordinance of Theisau was issued by the then Oberamtmann zu Weismain, "His most gracious gentlemen, Mr. Heinrich Christoph Heuslein von Eyßenheimb and Mr. Johann Nikolaus Förtschens, currently Bailiff of Burgkunstadt". In order to enforce the ordinances set out in it, a Schultheyß (mayor) and a village master (local guide) were appointed.

After secularization, Theisau came to the Altenkunstadt parish. Around 55 years later, in 1855, the village became part of the Burgkunstadt parish. The neo-Gothic chapel in Theisau was built around 1880 and presumably consecrated to Mary , the Mother of God, on May 15, 1881 . Theisau's patron saint is St. John Nepomuk , who was venerated in the village even before his canonization in 1729. Evidence of this u. a. a sandstone figure with the inscription 1722, which is still standing at the passage, and a wooden figure on the church facade from the second half of the 18th century. The two bells were donated by Georg Schnap from Pfaffendorf and Freiherr von Redwitz from Maineck .

The Theisau Riding and Driving Club was founded on November 24, 1972.

On January 1, 1977 Theisau was incorporated into Burgkunstadt. Until then, the village and Mainklein formed a community.
