history

On August 12, 1276, King Rudolf I of Habsburg in Worms gave Count Heinrich V of Weilnau a castle loan to Gelnhausen . In this document, Wolferborn is first mentioned as "Wolfratsbrunnen" . Wolferborn was given its current name after 1400. From 1787 there is a Birsteiner share in the Wolferborn court. In 1806 all of the Isenburg lands became part of the Rheinbund Principality of Isenburg ; After the decision of the Congress of Vienna, the principality came to Austria in 1815, but only stayed there for a year. Austria ceded the entire area to the Grand Duchy of Hesse (Hessen-Darmstadt) in mid-1816 . Grand Duke and Elector ( Hessen-Kassel ) agreed on June 29, 1816 on a division of the north Main areas, the former counties in the old German Empire ( Ysenburg-Büdingen-Meerholz and Ysenburg-Büdingen-Wächtersbach), and concluded a territorial compensation Contract. Wolferborn came to Kurhessen, initially to the Salmünster district and after its dissolution in 1830 to the Gelnhausen district . In 1866 the place then became Prussian (Province of Hessen-Nassau).

Although the formerly independent municipality Wolferborn not for district Büdingen belonged, but from 1830 to Kreis Gelnhausen (or after 1938 for the district Gelnhausen ), it is with effect from August 1, 1972 by virtue of state law in the city Büdingen as district incorporated . and since then belongs to the Wetterau district . The Seemenbach flows through Wolferborn.

In the Middle Ages, Wolferborn was at times a place of jurisdiction, otherwise a purely agricultural community. The church is a Romanesque building and was built as a fortified church , which, including the organ, has recently been extensively renovated.

Wolferborn got water pipes in 1926 and sewers in 1934. Land consolidation was carried out from 1914 to 1920. Today Wolferborn is an agricultural and workers' community with a few small businesses.
