Vorhardsweiler

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Vorhardsweiler is a local desert in the area of ​​the municipality of Adelmannsfelden in the Ostalbkreis in eastern Baden-Württemberg .

Geographical location

The place Vorhardsweiler stood in the large forest area between the upper Kocher and the upper Bühler at about 475  m above sea level. NHN in today's municipality of Adelmannsfelden around seven kilometers west of the Adelmannsfeld town center. The place was located in the area of ​​the staggered intersection of the path from Kochertal near Untergröningen in Kochertal northwards via Wegstetten to Bühlerzell - Gerabronn and further into Bühlertal with the high path between the two large river valleys from Pommertsweiler via Hinterbüchelberg north-west towards Hohenberg and the Kohlenstraße . Both paths still exist today as partially undeveloped dust paths, but which are only open to limited public transport.

To the right of the last-mentioned street, shortly before reaching the other, there is a small forest clearing in which the last remaining forest rifle house was located. About a quarter of a kilometer south of this, the upper Rötenbach flows east-south-east to the tributary of its left upper course, the Seebach, from the Spitzklinge in the north and east, beyond the Rötenbach in the south, the forest area of Breitengehren begins .

history

Vorhardsweiler was previously called Foretsweiler. A farm of the same name once stood in the nearby forest of Breitengehren. In 1380 the place is mentioned as Volratzweiler, two goods from him paid their validity to Adelmannsfelden. In 1439, a little estate belonged to "Forentzweiler" in Untergröningen, which also paid a validity from "the Breitengern". Both properties subsequently came into the possession of the Limpurg taverns , who later pledged them to Mr. von Vohenstein, who acquired another validity in Vorhardsweiler in 1509. In 1607, Hans Christof von Vohenstein bought the two farms that existed at that time for 1,800 guilders and combined them to form a domain in which he built an “aristocratic dwelling”. But because the entire rule of Adelmannsfelden fell to his line, it was soon abandoned. Ernst Albert von Vohenstein put a farmer on the property, which subsequently remained.

Württemberg, which had already begun to collect the Limpurgian and Vohenstein property in the region, which had been fragmented by complicated inheritance relationships during the mediatization in the Napoleonic era, later had the management transferred to the Comburg Forestry Office in 1832. At least until 1854, however, a house remained that was the residence of a forest rifleman.

The black spot that can be seen on this map in the clearing today could, with a certain probability, also have been caused by a deceptive superimposition of vertical hatching and vegetation symbols.
