history

The oldest surviving mention under the name Utenhusen comes from the year 1071.

The statistical-topographical-historical description of the Grand Duchy of Hesse reports on Udenhausen in 1830:

"Udenhausen (L. Bez. Alsfeld) evangel. Parish village; is 2 1 ⁄ 4  St. from Alsfeld, has 57 houses and 352 residents who are Protestant except for 1 Catholics. - The origin of the church, which probably belonged to the diaconate of St. John, is unknown. Udenhausen is known from the legend of Attila's sword. The Hersfeld monk, Lampert von Aschaffenburg, reports the following in the story of Heinrich IV. In 1071: The king came to the village of Utenhusen with his entourage on his journey to Mainz to eat lunch there. On the onward journey Lupold von Mersburg fell from his horse and into his own sword, so that he immediately gave up the ghost. It was noted that this was the same sword that Attila had once wielded in the persecution of Christians. A Hungarian queen, mother of King Solomon, had given it to Duke Otto von Baiern. and he gave it to the son of the margrave Dedi for a while as a pledge of unchangeable friendship. After his death it came to the king, and through him to Lupold. In the history of the Goths one reads that this sword belongs to Mars, that such a shepherd, after it had been buried for a long time, was found and brought to the attic, to which the interpreters of signs prophesied that this sword would be fatal for the end of the world and the ruin of many peoples. "

In the course of the regional reform in Hesse , the municipality of Grebenau was re-established on December 31, 1971 through the merger of the previously independent municipality of Eulersdorf, Grebenau, Reimenrod, Schwarz, Udenhausen and Wallersdorf. Grebenau was designated as the seat of the municipal administration.

Territorial history and administration

The following list gives an overview of the territories in which Udenhausen 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 registry lords and thus for Udenhausen by the Grebenau office. 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 superior court of appeal in Darmstadt was superordinate .

With the establishment of the Grand Duchy of Hesse in 1806, this function was retained, while the tasks of the first instance were transferred to the newly created regional courts in 1821 as part of the separation of jurisdiction and administration. "Alsfeld Regional Court" was therefore the name of the court of first instance in Alsfeld from 1821 to 1879, today's district court, which was responsible for Udenhausen.

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 the Alsfeld district court and the district was assigned to the district of the regional court Gießen , at the same time Udenhausen was transferred to the now Lauterbach District Court . On May 1, 1948, Udenhausen was reassigned to the Alsfeld district court. In the Federal Republic of Germany, the superordinate instances are the Regional Court of Giessen, the Higher Regional Court of Frankfurt am Main and the Federal Court of Justice as the last instance.
