history

The burial mound on Palmberg was covered with graves in several periods. In 1868 archaeologists examined the place and found numerous skeletons from different epochs up to the older Roman imperial and early medieval times. The archaeologists interpreted this constant occupation of the site with burials with cultic traditions. The occupancy can also be associated with the nearby church.

The place was first mentioned in 1328. W. Kahl proves that it was first mentioned in a document on May 18, 876. Until the 16th century the place was called Videlhusen or Fiedelhausen. The name is derived from the settlement of Fidelo. A water castle is mentioned in a document in 1157. It was on the northern edge of the village, where you can find shards of the 9./10. and the 12th century found. The castle was besieged and stormed by troops of the landgrave in 1344. After the destruction, buildings were rebuilt. In the 20th century everything was built over in a modern way, so that nothing of the castle is recognizable.

In the Middle Ages the place was owned by the Counts of Weimar-Orlamünde . From 1346 onwards, a parish is documented under the patronage of the Counts of Weimar-Orlamünde. After the Count of Orlamünde died out in 1372, the place came to the Wettin Landgraviate of Thuringia and when Leipzig was divided in 1485 to the Ernestine Electorate of Saxony. There is evidence of a teacher in Vippachedelhausen since 1594. The place belonged to the part of the " Vogtei Brembach ", which in 1664 came to the office Großrudestedt . From 1672 this belonged to the Duchy of Saxony-Eisenach and from 1741 to the Duchy of Saxony-Weimar-Eisenach .

Until 1945 there was only one teacher in town. The Vippachedelhausen reservoir of the same name is located near Vippachedelhausen .

On January 1, 2019, the municipality of Vippachedelhausen was merged with other municipalities of the administrative community of Northern Weimar to form the rural municipality of Am Ettersberg . In the north of the former community lies the district of Thalborn .
