District Unterwittbach

history

Unterwittbach became an independent municipality in the Triefenstein lordship court in 1818 through the second municipal edict .

In 1821 Unterwittbach came through the incorporation of the Triefenstein rulership into the Kreuzwertheim rulership , from which the royal court and police authority of Kreuzwertheim emerged on October 1, 1848 and the district court Stadtprozelten emerged in 1853 .

In 1862 the district office of Marktheidenfeld was formed, on whose administrative area Unterwittbach was located as a municipality in the district court Stadtprozelten. In 1939, as everywhere in the German Reich, the designation district was introduced. Unterwittbach was now one of the 47 municipalities in the Marktheidenfeld district (license plate MAR ). With the dissolution of the district of Marktheidenfeld in 1972, Unterwittbach came into the newly formed district of Main-Spessart (license plate KAR , from 1979 MSP ).

In January 1977 Unterwittbach was incorporated into Kreuzwertheim. Unterwittbach had a population of 252 on December 31, 2019.

coat of arms

The former municipality of Unterwittbach did not have its own coat of arms. The official seal therefore included the small Bavarian state coat of arms (Art. 4, Paragraph 2 of the Bavarian municipal code). The "town coat of arms" displayed on the top right therefore has no official property. A community that no longer exists can no longer accept a new coat of arms. The "local coat of arms" therefore only has the quality of a private work of art. The fact that the Unterwittbach volunteer fire brigade has this "local coat of arms" on its sleeve has not changed anything. This contradicts Annex 3 number 1 of the Implementing Ordinance to the Bavarian Fire Brigade Act (according to this, either the small Bavarian state coat of arms or the coat of arms of the Kreuzwertheim market would have to be shown in the sleeve badge).
