Zell im Odenwald is the largest district of Bad König in the southern Hessian Odenwaldkreis , along with the core city, with around 1100 inhabitants . The place is in the Mümlingtal on the federal highway 45 between Michelstadt and Bad König.

history

Zell was first mentioned in 1095 as a cella in the Lorsch Codex . The place belonged to the lordship of Breuberg until 1806 , although it was a bit apart from their core area. This is possibly explained by a long-term pledge of an Eppsteiner share to the Erbach taverns . In 1564 it came to the Erbachisches Amt Michelstadt .

On August 1, 1972, the municipality of Zell was incorporated into the municipality (from October 10, 1980 city) Bad König as part of the regional reform in Hesse . As for every part of the city, a local district with a local advisory council and a local mayor was established.

Culture

The Gasthaus Zur Krone on Königer Straße is a listed building, as is the Maul paper factory (today: Jakob Maul GmbH), which dates back to a paper mill founded by the Erbach counts in the early 18th century , and the former ban mill .

economy
