Wisselsheim is the smallest district of Bad Nauheim in the Hessian Wetterau district .

Geographical location

The district is east of the core city. The district road 173 leads through the village. Wisselsheim is located on the Wetter .

history

The oldest surviving mention of the place as Wizinesheim ( home of Wizzo ) comes from 804 and can be found in the Lorsch Codex .

The church was built in 1550.

Salt was extracted from the brine springs here as early as the 16th century . The management of the salt works was located in the Löwenthal estate . The facilities were abandoned in 1830. Bad Salzhausen bought parts of the graduation tower .

Until 1806, the place belonged to 1112 of the barons Löw von und zu Steinfurth and 112 of the barons Schenck zu Schweinsberg as an imperial free property . In 1806 Steinfurth fell to the Grand Duchy of Hesse through the Rhine Confederation Act and was located here in the Principality of Upper Hesse (from 1816: Province of Upper Hesse ). The lower jurisdiction remained with the landlords and was exercised by their " Patrimonial Steinfurt". This restriction of state sovereignty naturally disturbed the Grand Duchy.

During the administrative reform between 1820 and 1822, the Grand Duchy managed to further integrate Wisselsheim into the state structures. With this administrative reform, jurisdiction and administration were also separated at the lower level . District districts were created for the administrative tasks previously performed in the offices, and district courts for the first instance jurisdiction. In 1822, Wisselsheim was effectively incorporated into the Butzbach district administration, as the Löw von Steinfurth people refrained from exercising police rights themselves. The jurisprudence was now carried out by the "Grand Ducal Hessian Regional Court of the Barons of Löw" in Friedberg. 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.

In the course of the regional reform in Hesse , Wisselsheim merged with Rödgen on February 1, 1971 to form the municipality of Wettertal . Already at 31 December 1971 Wisselsheim was in the city of Bad Nauheim incorporated .

Wisselsheim Estate

The Wisselsheim estate belonged to a Mr. Renker. His daughter Juliane Christiane Renker married Johann Philipp Huth, called Wisselsheim 1664–1726, 3rd son of the pharmacist Johannes Huth (1619–1693) in 1704.

This turned to medical studies. After obtaining his doctorate, he settled in his hometown Friedberg as a doctor and later became a physicus ordinarius and Hessen-Kassel'scher council and personal physician. As a result of the inheritance, Johann Philipp was given the name Huth-Wisselsheim. On June 1, 1722, in view of his services, he was awarded a personal coat of arms, which his heirs and "heirs" are entitled to use at all times. The coat of arms is signed by the cousin of the doctor and son of the old priest, the imperial notary Adrian Huth at the castle.

Adrian was the son of the castle pastor Christoph (1628–1706), so cousin of Johann Philipp. Juliane Huth survived her husband. Her tombstone is in the old Church of Our Lady in Friedberg in the nave, north side under the fourth window. The marriage of Johann Philip had three daughters and two sons, of whom only the older one is known. Johann Philipp died before November 19, 1726.
