history
Little was first mentioned in 815. It belonged to the Mansbach court in the HRR . In the place, however, not only Mansbach or Geyso subjects lived but also subjects of the Fulda monastery . In the Reichsdeputationshauptschluss the place became part of the Principality of Nassau-Orange-Fulda . With the establishment of the Rheinbund in 1806 it became part of the Kingdom of Westphalia and was assigned to the Werra department and the canton of Landeck in the Hersfeld district . According to the provisions of the Congress of Vienna , Wenigentaft was ceded to the Grand Duchy of Saxony-Weimar-Eisenach in 1816 and incorporated into the neighboring Geisa office. Wenigentaft belonged to the Free State of Thuringia since 1920 . In 1930 a church was built in place of the previous one that had been broken off.
As a result of the division of Germany after the Second World War , Wenigentaft was until 1990 in the 500 m protection strip of the restricted area in the border area between the GDR and the FRG . The incorporation to Buttlar took place on March 25, 1994.
traffic
Wenigentaft was a railway junction from 1906 until the division of Germany. In Wenigentaft-Mansbach station , the Ulstertal Railway , which ran from the Werra Valley to the Hohe Rhön, met the Hünfeld – Wenigentaft-Mansbach railway and the Wenigentaft-Oechsener Railway to the east . Thus, until 1945 there was a rail connection to Gerstungen ( Thuringian Railway ) and Bad Salzungen ( Werrabahn ) in the north, Oechsen in the east, Hünfeld ( north-south route ) and Fulda in the west and Tann and Hilders in the south. After 1945, the inner-German border divided the station. Until 1952, due to the border location, all lines were closed and the track systems dismantled in 1953, so that the village can only be reached today via the district road 102a from Buttlar to Hohenroda . Sections of the Ulster Cycle Path and the Kegelspiel Cycle Path now run on the former railway lines .
