history

Evangelical Church Verna

The place is first mentioned in the year 775 in the Breviarium Sancti Lulli of the Hersfeld Abbey . The derivation takes place from a list compiled between 802 and 815 of the property donated to the monastery of Hersfeld at the time of Archbishop Lul. Verna is mentioned in the breviary with the following words: "IN PAGO HASSORUM IN VILLA FIRNE" (in the Hessengau in the village of Verna). This is property that took place on January 5th, 775 with the handover of the Hersfeld monastery to Charlemagne.

The spelling of the place name appears in historical documents in many different forms over the centuries: Firne (around 800), Ferene, Ferena, Verne (9th century), Virne (1197), Veirne (1230), Wirnawe (1257), Werne (1272), Verny (1371), Ffernne (1462), Ferna (1501), Fernna (1534), Ferna (1548), Verna (1575/85), Fern (1618).

On January 1, 1974, in the course of the regional reform in Hesse, the two large municipalities of Frielendorf and Grenzebach (which had formed on January 31, 1971 from the municipalities of Leimsfeld, Ober Grenzebach and Schönborn) with the previously independent municipalities of Allendorf, Großropperhausen, Leuderode, were joined by state law , Spieskappel and Verna to turn new major community Frielendorf together . The seat of the municipal administration became Frielendorf. Local districts were created for all formerly independent communities .
