Trais-Horloff is a district of Hungen in the central Hessian district of Gießen .

Geographical location

Trais-Horloff is south of Hungen. The federal highway 489 runs on the western edge of the town . The place lies between the Trais-Horloffer See , colloquially also called Inheidener See, and the Upper Knappensee. The Horloff flows nearby . There is a stop on the Gießen – Gelnhausen railway line .

history

The place was first mentioned between 750 and 802, in 780 in the Lorsch Codex as "Hurnaffa". 930 it says " in Treise. "

On December 31, 1970, as part of the regional reform in Hesse, the voluntary integration into the nearby small town of Hungen took place. For Trais-Horloff, as for all districts, a local district with a local advisory board and mayor was set up.

A project workshop was set up in the old station in 1989 . The youth center “JUZ”, which is located in the basement area of ​​the local kindergarten, was officially opened on January 23, 2005 and has been managed and maintained by the young people from Trais-Horloff ever since.

church

The core of the Evangelical Church in Trais-Horloff dates back to the 14th century; the tower was built in 1740. The Reformation was introduced after 1544.

After the war, the Church of St. Thomas (Trais-Horloff) temporarily served the Catholic community.

Solms-Laubach

Trais-Horloff belonged to the Utphe sub-office in the county of Solms-Laubach . The sub-office Utphe was formed from the "Rieddörfer" Inheiden , Trais-Horloff and Utphe as well as Wohnbach and the field mark of the deserted Feldheim.

In 1528, Count Philipp von Solms-Lich bought the Haina monastery in Utphe for 2,000 florins, including interest at Ober-Bessingen , Ettingshausen , Gonterskirchen , Laubach and Trais-Horloff.

In 1825 Trais-Horloff was a village with backward agriculture. As in Inheiden, there was still no stable feeding and no cattle fattening. Most of the 296 inhabitants lived from linen weaving.

Since the two “salt wells” had only a low salt content, they were filled in and the salt works there demolished.

Natural resources

Peat cut

In 1837 the extraction of peat was approved by the Count of Solms-Laubach.

Mineral wells and moffets

In 1854 there was a mineral well in the district and "several mofettes or holes in the ground from which lethal gas flows."

Lignite and its industrial use

The start-up boom of the early days meant that the Wetterau lignite deposits were quickly developed in civil engineering . In 1875, the Friedrich mine was opened near Trais-Horloff. A briquette factory was put into operation in 1883 and a barn in 1898, but the barn was closed again in 1903.

In 1879, a health insurance company was founded on the Friedrich pit , which operated from 1880 to 1888 as the Hessian-Rhenish Mining Association's fund. Then it was called the cash register of the lignite mines and briquette factory Friedrich and before it was absorbed into the Reichsknappschaft , the Friedrich zu Hungen union.

In the press house of the briquetting factory, on June 17, 1902, around 8 p.m., a huge coal dust explosion occurred . The building and the coal supplies burned down. The seven workers who were employed there were all seriously injured, four died from the injuries, including two men from Berstadt . The fire of the burning briquettes could be watched for weeks. A new process for the production of the mold blocks, the wet pressing technique , was used in the new factory for wet pressing blocks in Wölfersheim in 1904, and the briquette factory in Trais-Horloff was closed.

The first opencast mine in the Wetterau was opened in 1912 in Trais-Horloff by the city of Frankfurt am Main , and in 1920 it was taken over by the Frankfurt gas works. In the summer of 1924, coal mining and briquette production were stopped.

In May 1927, the People's State of Hesse merged with the City of Frankfurt in the company "Lignite Schwelkraftwerk Hessen-Frankfurt" (HEFRAG) to jointly manage the Wölfersheim power station . At the same time, the city of Frankfurt am Main planned to build its own smoldering power plant in Trais-Horloff. A smoldering power plant was opened in Wölfersheim in March 1929. The different interests led to the end of HEFRAG on December 31, 1929, which was taken over on January 1, 1930 by Preußische Elektrizitäts AG (PREAG). The mining and smoldering power plant in Trais-Horloff were shut down, but the entire workforce was taken over by the Prussian Electricity Company.

The self-sufficiency policy of the Third Reich led to the resumption of coal mining in Trais-Horloff in the summer of 1938, this time in open-cast mining. The overburden was done with a bucket chain excavator . The lignite was transported with a mine train through the Berstadt district over the Roman shaft to Wölfersheim. The mine train had a track width of 900 mm.

In the restart phase after the Second World War , the coal for the Wölfersheim power station was extracted from the Trais-Horloff opencast mine and the Römerschacht, Heuchelheim and Weckesheim mines . 47% of the production came from the Trais-Horloff opencast mine. By 1950, 2.21 million tons of brown coal had been mined in Trais-Horloff.

From the end of the 19th century until 1950, brown coal was mined in the Friedrich mine. From the remaining open cast mining holes of Inheidener / Trais-Horloffer lake created with a water surface of 35 hectares and the lower Knappensee, with 31 hectares of water and Upper Knappensee with 37 hectares of water, both holes remaining open pit IV.

The renaturation measures were carried out on the Trais-Horloffer See and the Trais-Horloff waste dump, creating a field wood island after 1950, for the Lower Knappensee 1982/85, for the Upper Knappensee 1984/86.

Territorial history and administration

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

Courts since 1803

In the Landgraviate of Hesse-Darmstadt , the judicial system was reorganized in an executive order of December 9, 1803. The “Hofgericht Gießen” was set up as a court of second instance for the province of Upper Hesse . The jurisdiction of the first instance was carried out by the offices or landlords and thus from 1806 the “Patrimonial Court of the Counts Solms-Laubach” in Utphe was responsible for Trais-Horloff. The court court was the second instance court for normal civil disputes, and the first instance for civil family law cases and criminal cases. The second instance for the patrimonial courts were the civil law firms. The superior court of appeal in Darmstadt was superordinate .

With the founding of the Grand Duchy of Hesse in 1806, this function was retained, while the tasks of the first instance 1821–1822 were transferred to the newly created regional and city courts as part of the separation of jurisdiction and administration. From 1822 the Counts of Solms-Laubach let the Grand Duchy of Hesse exercise their court rights on their behalf. “ Landgericht Laubach ” was therefore the name of the court of first instance that was responsible for Trais-Horloff. The count also waived his right to the second instance, which was exercised by the law firm in Hungen. It was only as a result of the March Revolution of 1848 that the special civil rights became final with the “Law on the Relationships of the Classes and Noble Court Lords” of April 15, 1848 canceled. On November 1, 1848, Utphe were handed over to the Hungen District Court .

On the occasion of the introduction of the Courts Constitution Act with effect from October 1, 1879, as a result of which the previous grand-ducal Hessian regional courts were replaced by local courts in the same place, while the newly created regional courts now functioned as higher courts, the name was changed to "Hungen Local Court" and allocation to the district of the regional court of Giessen . On June 1, 1934, the Hungen District Court was dissolved and Trais-Horloff was assigned to the Nidda District Court .

On January 1, 2012, the Nidda district court was dissolved in accordance with a resolution of the Hessian state parliament and Trais-Horloff was assigned to the Büdingen district court. The superordinate instances are now, the regional court Gießen , the higher regional court Frankfurt am Main and the federal court as last instance.
