geography

Wahlen is northeast of Kirtorf. Roads 3070 and 3071 meet in the village .

history

Protestant church

The place was first mentioned in writing in 1297 under the name Walhen in a document book of the Teutonic Order . A church was probably built as early as 1207 . A new building could no longer take place in the center of the village because of the poor subsoil. It took place above the village. The church was consecrated in 1780. Today it is a listed building .

The statistical-topographical-historical description of the Grand Duchy of Hesse reports on elections in 1830:

"Elections (L. Bez. Kirtorf) evangel. Parish village; is 1 St. von Kirtorf, and belongs to the Eusser Patrimonial Court of Baron von Schenk, in which the jurisdiction in the first instance is jointly with the state and the von Schenk family. The place has 74 houses and 417 Protestant residents. Wahlen has an extensive demarcation area and there are some iron stones that were used in the past, basalt stones and many sandstone blocks. To the north-east of Wahlen, towards Bernsburg, an hour-long field stretches out that was previously the boundary of two localities, house towns and Watzenrode. Watzenrod still designate wells, just like the former burial place, which was discovered through the discovery of remains. Elections were otherwise a rich and prosperous place; now he is, despite the fertile district, poor and subject to a private debt. I can not help to lead this in extracts what one says about the latter point very informed translucent man under the April 30, 1828: "It is a sad truth that dermal about 1 / 4 of the local citizens concurs, and certainly more than 1 / 4 next is over-indebted. The cause of this breakdown of property is likely to be found in the overly high stock of goods, in the case of handovers, the luxurious way of life, etc. The Concurses have brought about the gradual decline in the value of goods, so that no one buys nor leases. This evil generated in the past can only be countered if Watzenrod emerged from his rubble again. Call on 4-6 wealthy economists to grow up here. The purchase of this large field, which is currently regarded as orphaned, would raise the value of goods in elections, and the state would shortly have another flourishing place. I would like this description to attract the attention of the high and highest state authorities and result in a close examination "."

and about the outer judgment:

“Outer court (L. Bez. Kirtorf) area; contains the places Arnshain, Bernsburg, Erbenhausen, Lehrbach, Obergleen and Wahlen, which now belong to the district of Kirtorf. The jurisdiction of the first instance belongs to the state and the Freiherr von Schenk, Ganerbe zu Schweinsberg, jointly. The disputed jurisdiction in Homberg is exercised jointly on certain days of office by the district judge and the Schenkische clerk, whereas the police and other administrative business is exclusively exercised by the district councilor. - The Nassau house had acquired a share in the Euss court and subsequently enfeoffed the Schweinsberg tavern with it. The above-mentioned places belonged to the Amte Kirtorf. Elsewhere, as in Alsfeld, Romrod, etc., the court was composed of lay judges from the city and the villages; But since Kirtorf belonged exclusively to the Counts of Ziegenhain and afterwards came to the Landgraves, but the taverns had shares in the above places, a court of this kind could not be formed here, hence the court in Kirtorf (inner court) from the of the villages (outer court) differed. This is how the name Eusser Court came about, which linguistic usage, however, has been pretty much lost in recent times, and has now been completely lost due to the last organization.

On December 31, 1971, as part of the regional reform in Hesse , elections were incorporated into the city of Kirtorf by state law.

Territorial history and administration

The following list gives an overview of the territories in which elections took place or the administrative units to which it was subject:

Courts since 1803

In the Landgraviate of Hesse-Darmstadt , the judicial system was reorganized in an executive order of December 9, 1803. The “Hofgericht Gießen” was set up as a court of second instance for the province of Upper Hesse . The jurisdiction of the first instance was carried out by the offices or the landlords and thus the external court was responsible for elections. The court court was the second instance court for normal civil disputes, and the first instance for civil family law cases and criminal cases. The superior court of appeal in Darmstadt was superordinate .

With the establishment of the Grand Duchy of Hesse in 1806, this function was retained, while the tasks of the first instance were transferred to the newly created regional courts in 1821 as part of the separation of jurisdiction and administration. " Regional Court Homberg an der Ohm " was therefore from 1821 to 1879 the name of the court of first instance in Homberg an der Ohm, which was responsible for elections. On March 13, 1822, the Freiherrn Schenck zu Schweinsberg renounced their police and other administrative rights in favor of the state authorities. In the district court of Homberg, jurisdiction continued to be exercised jointly. It was only as a result of the March Revolution of 1848 that the special civil rights were finally abolished with the “Law on the Relationships of Classes and Noble Court Lords” of April 15, 1848.

On the occasion of the introduction of the Courts Constitution Act with effect from October 1, 1879, as a result of which the previous grand-ducal Hessian regional courts were replaced by local courts at the same place, while the newly created regional courts now functioned as higher courts, the name was changed to "Local Court Homberg an der Ohm" and Allocation to the district of the regional court in Giessen . On June 15, 1943, the court became a branch of the Alsfeld District Court, but was converted into a full court again with effect from June 1, 1948. On July 1, 1968, the Homberg District Court was dissolved and the area of ​​the Kirchhain District Court was assigned to elections . In the Federal Republic of Germany, the superordinate instances are the Marburg Regional Court , the Frankfurt am Main Higher Regional Court and the Federal Court of Justice as the last instance.
