Uengershausen (incorrectly also Üngershausen ) is a district of the market Reichenberg in the Lower Franconian district of Würzburg .

Geographical location

Uengershausen is located in the southwest of the Reichenberg municipality. Reichenberg itself can be found in the north, while Lindflur is in the northeast and Rottenbauer , a district of Würzburg , is located further northeast . The Reichenberg district of Albertshausen rises to the southeast . The municipality of Geroldshausen begins to the south . The west, on the other hand, is occupied by the community-free Guttenberger Wald area.

history

The village of Uengershausen was already populated by so-called linear band ceramists during the Neolithic Age. Later some graves from the Junghallstatt period were laid here . After the present-day village was founded around the court of the Franconian lord Hungo as a result of the Franks' invasion, the Würzburg monastery of St. Burkard rose to become lord of the village over time. The first documentary mention comes from the year 1367 and was therefore later than in the other Reichenberg districts. In 1474 Wolfgang von Wolffskeel von Reichenberg bought the village from Pancratio Fischlein and his wife Anna Fischlein (née von Lichtenstein). During the 16th century, the Lutheran influence in the village grew. The knight Götz von Berlichingen , who worked in the area of ​​the parish of Uengershausen, also contributed to this.

The Wolffskeel von Reichenberg , who had a great influence on the history of the village, also soon turned to the new teaching. Weipprecht von Wolffskeel was still canon in Würzburg in 1516, but his sister, a nun in Heidingsfeld , resigned from the monastery. In 1525 the Uengershäuser joined the German peasant uprising , which was soon put down. In 1565 the Catholic monastery of St. Burkard was still the tithe in the village.

Although the Counter-Reformation was initially forced under the rule of Julius Echter von Mespelbrunn , by 1607 the evangelical doctrine had finally established itself in the town. Nevertheless, Philipp Adolf von Ehrenberg tried again to return the Uengershäuser to the old Catholic faith. During the Thirty Years' War and the changing occupations by the Swedes and the Imperialists, Uengershausen fell desolate at times and was only gradually settled again.

After the mediatization and the dissolution of the smaller domains at the beginning of the 19th century, Uengershausen came to the Electoral Palatinate of Bavaria . It later became a rural community in Bavaria, which has now become a kingdom. Around 1820 a large part of the village was destroyed in a fire. On May 1, 1978, the formerly independent community was completely incorporated into Reichenberg in Lower Franconia. The municipality had an area of ​​807 hectares in 1961 and had no other parts of the municipality.

Some of the families who have lived in the village for centuries come from what is now the district of Neustadt an der Aisch-Bad Windsheim and there, above all, from the two places Lipprichhausen and Gülchsheim in today's Hemmersheim community . A Uengershausen peasant family , who have been resident since 1634, can presumably be traced back to the village of Hirschlach in the Ansbach district in Middle Franconia .

Culture and sights

The Evangelical Lutheran parish church forms the center of the village . It was built in the Middle Ages and was at times the parish center of the area. Today's house of worship was built in 1602 and later changed several times. The church presents itself as a hall with a choir tower .

In the vicinity of the church one of the larger war memorials in the area has been preserved, which was inaugurated in October 1910 as a reminder of the German wars of unity. It honors those who fell in the wars of 1849, 1866 and 1870/71 as well as the two world wars. In the opposite direction there is a half-timbered building from the year 1816, which until 1837 housed the Wolffskeel Forestry Office.

A little further on the way to Geroldshausen , a plaque from the then mayor Andreas Hofmann reminds of the occupation of the village by a soldier unit from the then Russian province of Finland in the course of the wars of liberation in Central Europe, which had built a sauna at the same location in 1814. With reference to the events of this time, the name Russians, which is still used today, developed in the vernacular for the residents of Uengershausen.

The village achieved national fame through the years of success of the women's football department of TSV Uengershausen , from which, among other things, the German national player Ursula Holl emerged . In 2008 the women's soccer teams joined the ETSV Würzburg .
