history

Weiboldshausen is mentioned for the first time in the first half of the 12th century as "curia (= court) Wicpotonis", as a settlement near the court of Wicpoto, where court probably means a fortified house, ie a noble seat. The settlement will then have arisen at the seat. In 1239, "Husen" was named in a papal protection privilege for the Rebdorf monastery , and in 1250 in another papal protection privilege, namely for the Benedictine monastery in Wülzburg , in which the right of the parish to occupy the parish is confirmed as the property of the monastery. A Rodulfus de "Husen" is mentioned by the local nobility in 1130/40, a Henricus "de Domo" in 1265, a Wipoto de Husen in 1291 and 1293, a Weippot von Hausen in 1323, Hans von Husen on a tombstone at the church from 1427. These lords of Husen / Hausen were feudal men of the Nuremberg burgrave since 1292 . Her coat of arms is a golden doe on a blue shield (see coat of arms stone at the church in Weiboldshausen). The pastors have been identified by name since 1318. In 1473 the Ballei Franken of the Teutonic Order in Ellingen bought the castle stables and goods in Weiboldshausen with all rights from Stephan Großen, Landvogt von Höchstetten ; The Teutonic Order had given the large and small tithes of the village to the Wülzburg monastery as early as 1337. The branch church Höttingen belonged to Weiboldshausen , the separation was carried out on July 12, 1482 by the Bishop of Eichstätt. In 1528, before the Confessio Augustana of 1530, the Reformation was introduced in Weiboldshausen by the Ansbach margraves . The first Protestant pastor, Johann Hugel († 1545), who had his seat at the Wülzburg monastery , looked after Höttingen as well as Weiboldshausen. In 1590 witch hunts were carried out in Weiboldshausen : Eight women got into witch trials and were executed in Ellingen. Around 1800 40 subjects of the place belonged to the Teutonic Order, three to the Ansbach margrave . At the end of the Old Kingdom , Weiboldshausen consisted of 42 properties; the rectory, the schoolhouse, a half yard, a farm and a Selden were subordinate to the Wülzburg Abbey Office, the tavern, the mill, two farms, three half farms, two estates, twelve Selden, 15 small estates and houses as well as the community pastor's house to the Oberamt Ellingen of the Teutonic Order . The jurisdiction was divided: on the left of Dorfstrasse it belonged to the Brandenburg Oberamt Gunzenhausen, on the right of Dorfstrasse and on the Brandenburg side of inner Ettern it belonged to the Teutonic Order. The village jurisdiction and the protection of the church consecration were rights of the Oberamt Ellingen.
