history

According to the previous view, Weißenschirmbach was mentioned in a document (No. 138) in the Hersfeld tithe list around 899 as Scrinbach (Schirmbach) , but this cannot be determined with absolute certainty. The Scrinbechiu mentioned here is probably more (Rothen-) Schirmbach . Nevertheless, the 1100th anniversary of Weißenschirmbach was celebrated in 1999. The founding of the community is attributed to the Slavic Wends who settled north of the Saale at that time.
