history

The first documentary mention of the place dates back to 1088, when Archbishop Wezilo of Mainz confirmed the donation of the village (villa) Olbezo to Hasungen Monastery by Rothard, a knight of Count Rudolf I von Reichenbach . The monastery belehnte later than 1219 the knight Hermann von Ulmes with the village and whose descendants had Ulmes well until about 1340 wholly or partly owned. Thereafter, Tammo Holzsadel and his descendants held the jurisdiction ( iurisdictio ) of Ulmes as a landgrave-Hessian castle until after 1376 , but paid interest to Hasungen Monastery from Ulmes.

In the 13th and 14th centuries, other monasteries also received income from the place, whose inhabitants ran an important pottery in the Olmes lowlands, through donations or purchases. As early as 1238, Count Gottfried IV von Ziegenhain gave both the tithe in Ulmes, which he had as a fief from the emperor, and the tithe, which Heinrich von Uttershausen had given him there in the same year , to the Haina monastery , which at that time the entry of Count Heinrich III in 1231 . von Reichenbach in the monastery attracted special attention from the Reichenbachers and the counts of Ziegenhain, who were closely related to them. A dispute between the Haina monastery and the lords of Uttershausen over a tithe to Ulmes was decided in 1269 in favor of the monastery. 1368 the monastery purchased additional Korngült from Ulmes of Ditmar wooden needle. The nearby Spieskappel monastery in Ulmes acquired a Kornval in 1363 by buying it and a meadow by donating it in 1387.

Already in 1431, when Werner von Loewenstein-Westerburg as Electoral Mainz bailiff of Neustadt received a meadow to Ulmes, the place was then described as desolate. In 1537 it is reported that the Feldmark , including 12 landgrave Huben , was cultivated by residents of the neighboring villages of Todenhausen and Neuenhain, and later also by Dillich and that it was part of the dish on the spit . The tithe continued to be levied; the tithe that was due to the Haina monastery until the Reformation was introduced in the Landgraviate of Hesse in 1626 was sold by Landgrave Philipp in 1530 after the monastery was abolished . From 1674 to 1824 the Lords of Dalwigk held a tithe assigned by the Landgrave to Ulmes as a fief.
