Documentation: Pappenheim is a town in the Middle Franconian district of Weißenburg-Gunzenhausen in the Altmühltal, about 70 kilometers south of Nuremberg. The city is located in the southeast of the Weißenburg-Gunzenhausen district in the Altmühltal in the West Middle Franconia region. The Altmühl river flows through the city, forming a loop around the old town. In addition to the city center, the municipality of Zimmern is also located on the river. In the north flows the Schambach. Pappenheim is also located in the Weißenburger Alb, a mountain range in the Franconian Alb. Elevations in the area of the town of Pappenheim include the Mühlberg (548 m), the Zimmerner Berg (548.4 m), the Fohrenbühl (568.3 m), the Zwieselberg (548.3 m) and the Zunderberg (532.6 m); valleys include the Pappenheimer Tal in the south and the Laubental in the north. Large parts of the urban area are covered by forests. State roads 2230, 2387 and 2274 run through Pappenheim. In the east, Pappenheim borders on the Upper Bavarian district of Eichstätt. In the north of the city area there are two exclaves belonging to Weissenburg. Traces of prehistoric settlement can be traced back to the Late Neolithic period on the hilltop settlement “Alte Bürg” located just west of the city and in the Niederpappenheim district below. Finds from the early Bronze Age and the Hallstatt period also come from the “Alte Bürg”. A multi-tiered system of sectional ramparts testifies to several fortification phases. Another and probably younger hilltop settlement of the late Hallstatt period existed on the “Schlossberg”, on which the castle was later built. After a long break, the Germans took advantage in the 4th century. or 5. Century AD the hill was again used for a fortification.[5] It is assumed that at least in prehistoric periods there were also smaller settlements in the valley, since the Altmühl was easily passable there through a ford. The founding of the Pappenheim settlement can only be dated to around 750. The earliest written mention as “Papinhaim in Sualafeld” is contained in a document from the year 802. Reginsind, the widow of the Count of Thurgau, donated wealth and property “in and around Pappenheim” to the monastery of St. Gallen. The 9th The Galluskirche, built in the 16th century, is a testament to this connection to St. Gallen and is not only Pappenheim's oldest still standing building, but also one of the oldest in Franconia. Above the St. Gallus Church, on the vineyard, there is another Sectional fortification, which is probably a (perhaps unfinished) fortification from the time of the Hungarian invasions in the 10th century. Century, which could have been built to protect the St. Gallen possessions. The early medieval settlement probably originated in the area around this church. Presumably, at this time there was also a fortification on the “Alte Bürg”, which, according to finds, lasted until the High Middle Ages. After its destruction, it was not rebuilt, but the castle site was moved to the spur down into the Altmühl loop, which corresponded to a general trend of the time. This Hohenstaufen castle complex was completed in 1175, as the consecration date of the castle chapel reveals. The complex was probably built as an imperial castle and initially given to the Calatine family of imperial ministers, who now called themselves Marshals of Pappenheim, as a fief and later as an allod. For eight centuries, this family exercised its office at Allen imperial coronations. As a residential town, Pappenheim became a regional center and in addition to many privileges of the Imperial Hereditary Marshals such as the Halsgericht and the Judenregal, the town also had the right of asylum. In 1288 it was granted town rights based on the Weissenburg model. In 1634, Pappenheim was besieged by the Swedes during the Thirty Years' War, who were soon able to take the city. The castle only had to be handed over after an artillery hit on the well room. It played a brief role again in the War of the Spanish Succession in 1705 and was captured and damaged by French troops. After that, it gradually fell into disrepair and was demolished at the beginning of the 19th century. In the 19th century it was converted into a romantic ruin that was more in keeping with the taste of the time. In 1627, the Imperial Ministerials were elevated to the rank of Imperial Count with Gottfried Heinrich. In the second half of the 13th century. In the 18th century, on the orders of Marshal Heinrich V of Pappenheim, the so-called “count villages” of Geislohe, Göhren, Neudorf and Osterdorf were established on the Alb plateau north of Pappenheim. They were systematically created as clearing islands in the forest under the direction of a “Reutmeister” (clearing master) according to a uniform scheme as street green villages: the properties are lined up on both sides of the elongated village green. Facing the meadow is the house with stable and outbuildings, behind it the garden and at the rear end of the property the Flax breaking house – this is where the flax was processed and dried. Because of the fire hazard from the drying oven, it was located as far away from the other buildings as possible. The associated fields were lined up along this tubular plot of land. The meadow housed the communal facilities, the "Hüll", in which rainwater was collected, and partly also the church and cemetery.[6][7] This structure is still clearly visible today, especially in Neudorf.[8]Source: Wikipedia Pappenheim is a town in the Middle Franconian district of Weißenburg-Gunzenhausen in the Altmühltal, about 70 kilometers south of Nuremberg.
