history

The place was first mentioned on May 19, 811. In the donation of a certain Gundo at "Orthereshusa" in Grabfeldgaue "St. Bonifatius (ie the Fulda Monastery ) except six unfree cattle were given all his property to small and large cattle. The next reference can be found in a Fulda land register from the time the year 1000. After that there were eleven Slavs on the abbey property of "Otricheshusen" , each of whom had to pay two siklen annual interest. For several centuries the place was in the tension between the bishopric of Fulda , the lords and later counts of Hanau and local ones Nobles who had two castle seats here , Uttrichshausen Castle and Anberg Castle .

The place belonged to the Altengronau court , which came to the Hanau rulership in 1333 as an imperial loan from an inheritance from the Rieneck family. The Schwarzenfels Office of the County of Hanau emerged from the court in the 15th century ; from 1459: County of Hanau-Münzenberg .

In 1643 the Schwarzenfels office - and with it Uttrichshausen - was handed over to the Landgraviate of Hessen-Kassel as a pledge along with other securities . It was supposed to vouch for Hanau's debts that arose in connection with the liberation of the city of Hanau from the siege by imperial troops in 1636 against Hessen-Kassel. Hanau was no longer able to redeem this pledge from Hessen-Kassel. The office was administered like landgrave property in the following period. Even after Hessen-Kassel in 1736, after the death of the last Hanau count, Johann Reinhard III. , which inherited the county of Hanau-Munzenberg, it was not reunited with it.

The Landgrave of Hessen-Kassel was made electoral prince in 1803, but his land came under Napoleonic occupation as early as 1806 . Uttrichshausen was thus under French military administration from 1806, belonged to the Principality of Hanau from 1807 to 1810 and then from 1810 to 1813 to the Grand Duchy of Frankfurt , Department of Hanau . It then fell back to what was now the Electorate of Hesse . After the administrative reform of the Electorate of Hesse in 1821, under which the state was divided into four provinces and 22 districts, Uttrichshausen belonged to the Schlüchtern district . In 1867 the electorate was annexed by Prussia after the Austro-Prussian War .

Territorial reform

There were changes in the course of the regional reform in Hesse . On December 31, 1971, the previously independent community of Heubach was incorporated. On August 1, 1972, Uttrichshausen was incorporated into the large municipality of Kalbach (Fulda district) by virtue of state law .
