    • The history of the imperial city Bad Windsheim
      Finds of tools in and around Bad Windsheim, which are from the Middle Stone Age, can be concluded on a first settlement of Windsheim about 3500 years ago.

      Around 530, the first Franconian settlement wave reached the southwest corner of the Steigerwald, the watershed between Gollach and Aisch. The founding of Windsheim (Kleinwindsheim) is about to begin in about 530.

      The newly populated areas were secured by royal courts according to Franconian custom. One of these fortified places was the court of Kleinwindsheim, inhabited by pawns. He secured the settlements in Rannachgau. Kleinwindsheim was the fiscal center of the "Ur" - Rannachgaus and starting point for further settlement activities in the upper Rannach and Aischgrund. At the same time also the mother settlement of Windsheim, of which one can go out on the basis of a document from the year 1317. Kleinwindsheim consisted of a small church, several farms and a fulling mill. The mill was owned by the chivalrous families of donkeys and gullies (Geiling Geyling) from Illesheim 1, here the notorious Eppelein (Eckelin) of Gailingen was born, who was executed by wheel in Neumarkt in 1381. A descendant (Dorothea Gailing) married the famous Gotz von Berlichingen. The family of Gailing separates into the so-called White Gailing (Illesheim - Röllinghausen), whose grandfather Albrecht in 1295 is the founder of the Augustinian monastery in Windsheim and the Black Gailing whose possessions were more in Ergersheim and the castle forest (destroyed 1375) at Gunzenhausen. From this came the robber baron Eppelein. Both families were Hohenlohe's fiefs. In 1391, Arnold Gailing (Der Weisse) sold his farm in Kleinwindsheim with 50 acres of land to Peter Kumpf who gave him in 1405 to the hospital in Windsheim.

      Already in 741 Windsheim (called Uuinedisheim) had a church dedicated to St. Martin. This document is no longer available in the original, since it is burned in 874 during the fire of the cathedral in Würzburg. The document of 822 is a repetition and confirmation of the first, it is confirmed that the formerly royal parish church of St. Martin belongs to the bishop of Würzburg, in the year 889, the Martinskirche is mentioned for the last time in a document.
      The current town of Windsheim is a second settlement founded a little later. The Ursiedlung is Kleinwindsheim. Both settlements coexisted for centuries.
      The second church has always been separate from the Ursiedlung on the present square of the town church of St. Kilian (built 1190-1216). This was already mentioned together with the Allerheiligenkapelle in a deed of 1289. The All Saints' Chapel stood at today's Sauberplatz and was demolished in 1778 due to dilapidation. On the square of the city church stood the so-called Kärtner (ossuary), during the construction of the Kilianskirche he was heaped up to the upper arches with earth, without doubt he existed before 1190 and is thus the oldest church in Windsheim and was probably the Martinskirche. As early as 750 Kleinwindsheim was one of the main places in this region. From 889 Kleinwindsheim is mentioned more often in connection with sales of tithing and other gilts. Even in 1570, Eucharius Hoffman is called the mayor and Müller von Kleinwindsheim. On 3 October 1574 the miller is stabbed in his mill by 4 murderers. 1597 Kleinwindsheim is called a desert. In the 30-year war, the place was completely destroyed except for the mill.

      From 900, the second settlement, today's Windsheim, by belonging to the diocese of Würzburg slowly developed into a city. This is to be regarded as a bulwark against the then traffic-free imperial city Lenkersheim.
      Already in the year 1104 a small monastery was founded by the Johanniter which was later abandoned, also by the Franziskaner around 1291 a monastery was founded and later abandoned. Around 1006 came Windsheim, according to a legend, by a donation, to the Schoßbachwald. The first Würzburg mayor is mentioned in 1210 in a document. Until 1235 Windsheim belonged to the diocese of Würzburg, this then passed it to the emperor. Windsheim was first mentioned as a "market" in 1234. In 1284 Windsheim is called a city. In the same year, the first city seal is mentioned. On 5 May 1295 Windsheim was given its own jurisdiction by King Adolf of Nassau. This can be considered as the foundation stone for imperial freedom. In 1291, the Augustinian monastery was donated by Albrecht von Gailing. 1297, the city was pledged by Adolf von Nassau, to the diocese of Würzburg. She bought 1302 of her own funds. Particularly wealthy citizens made foundations available to the city. The hospital was founded in 1315 by Konrad Förster. The construction of the Spitalkirche was begun in 1318. The Seekapelle was founded in 1400 by Thomas Kumpff. In 1325 Windsheim was mortgaged again, this time to the burgraves of Nuremberg and in 1347 again to the burgraves. The citizens of the city, however, repeatedly broke out of their own resources. 1360 the last time. pledged to the diocese of Würzburg. She bought 1302 of her own funds.

The citizens of the city, however, repeatedly broke out of their own resources. 1360 the last time.

      The alliance agreement of the imperial city Windsheim and the imperial city of Nuremberg came about in 1344, until 1691 there were a total of 28 alliances with Nuremberg. At this time Windsheim was already a Free Imperial City. From this point Windsheim expanded beyond its walls. Various villages and subjects were bought in the area. Over time, Windsheim brought a number of land and about 200 subjects in 31 places under his rule. Windsheim received in 1379 by King Wenzel the permission to tax residents so that you can fortify the city with walls and ditches. At the same time he allowed Windsheim to use the quarry on the Kehrenberg for this purpose. For the first time in 1302 a city wall is mentioned, the moat only 1317th The extension of the city fortification was made in 1424-1434. In 1383 Windsheim joined the Swabian - Frankish city union, this was the first city war. During this war against the predatory landlord several castles were destroyed in the area, the castle in Külsheim, Ipsheim, Hoheneck, belonging to Hoheneck Erkenbrechtshofen bought Windsheim, Lenkersheim, Röllinghausen at Illesheim and Ergersheim, the Old Castle on Kehrenberg, towards Herbolzheim located.

      An uprising of the citizens against the council took place in 1384, Nuremberg and Rothenburg came to the aid of the council, the uprising was crushed and some of the rebels were executed, many of them managed to escape and they received protection in Würzburg. At the end of the 14th century, Windsheim received a city constitution, statutes were issued regarding behavior in the case of fire, blasphemy, etc., in addition to a war constitution was enacted in the defense of the city was regulated. In the 14th century, the diocese of Würzburg was divided into 12 archdeaconates and chapters, the Windsheim chapter was divided into four deputations, these included 74 parishes with 108 clergy. In 1388 Windsheim was involved in a war with the burgrave of Nuremberg, who besieged the city together with the Bishop of Würzburg for 45 days. Windsheim was shocked by the forces of the imperial city of Nuremberg. The Windsheimer Rifle Association is mentioned in 1393 for the first time. The bishop of Würzburg occupied the city for a short time in 1400 because it sympathized with rebellious Würzburgers. In 1401 there is the first Windsheim Latin School. In 1427, the arsenal was built, it was the armory of the city and from 1438 also a municipal gun foundry, it was extended between 1609-1613. The council of the city Windsheim had built in 1428 a wooden watchtower (Weinturm) on the vineyard hill. This tower was designed to protect the vineyards and the people working outside the city walls. At the same time, however, he made it possible to see the Upper Aischgrund and the Wiebelsheimer Weg. When he was built as a stone tower in 1489, the margrave of Brandenburg protested by breaking the tower in 1490 and leveling the trenches. Only in 1496 a contract with Brandenburg Windsheim allowed the construction of the wooden tower on the old stone foundation. 1634, the wine tower was burned down by imperial troops. In 1640 it was replaced by a wooden structure. In 1674 it was built in its present form. During the war, he was occupied by a guard. Also in the second city war in 1443 against the Margrave Albrecht (Achilles) Windsheim was involved. In 1449 Windsheim joined the united troops, and in the following year this war continued. The result of the war was 300 destroyed villages, in nine battles was eight times the Margrave Victor in the ninth he was captured. In 1446 Windsheim received the privilege of "blood spell." During the feud between the Margrave Albrecht and the Hochstift Würzburg 1460 Windsheim turned to the side of the Margrave.

      In 1466 an alliance was concluded for three years between the cities of Nuremberg, Weissenburg and Windsheim. Engelhard von Seinsheim complained in 1451 against Windsheim because of the destruction of the castle Tief bei Unterntief in 1449. Windsheim had 1454 as compensation 7500, -fl. pay, so Unterntief belonged to Windsheim. Windsheim has a long pewter tradition that goes back to 1475. In 1874 this tradition is mentioned for the last time. The Reformation recorded Windsheim around 1522. The Augustinian monastery is repealed in 1525, the rights and possessions came to the city of Windsheim. The city bought 1542 Röllinghausen from Adam Gailing to 4000, -fl. The monastery church was demolished because of dilapidated 1592,

      From the Peasants' War in 1525 Windsheim tried as far as possible to keep out. While the peasant uprising around Windsheim was in full swing, 3000 men from the lower and upper Aischgrund burnt Dachsbach Castle on 9 May, Birkenfeld on the 13th, the 14th Hohenkottenheim Castle, 16th Speckfeld Castle, the same day that Kloster Riedfeld, the castles Stöckach, Saxony, Ullstadt, Birnbaum and Sugenheim. In Windsheim 60 women wanted to join the farmers and plunder the Augustinian monastery. On the 5th and 6th of May at midnight, under the guidance of "the Lüllichin," they hauled in axes and cleavers to the convent, and through the eloquence of the mayor the project of the women could be prevented. Already earlier in March of the same year there was an uprising of citizens against the Council in Windsheim, he was accused of cousin livelihood and other things. The problems were solved peacefully by a change in the composition of the Council. At the Reichstag in Augsburg in 1530, the imperial city declared its reformation. The new, current cemetery was built in 1531. The two fields economy was changed in 1559 to the three fields economy. Years 1560 gave the Wagner guild the special prerogative every year to hold a public guild dance, this custom has been preserved to this day. Emperor Maximilian extends the jurisdiction of the city of Windsheim also to their subjects in the countryside. 1572, the source of Röllinghausen was directed to the wine market and built the "beautiful fountain". In 1582, 383 people died in Windsheim of the plague. The cities of Nuremberg and Windsheim join forces in 1586 for 10 years against their enemies.

      The zeitgeist of witch burnings did not leave Windsheim untouched either. In the years 1596-1597 several citizens were killed by the stake. Windsheim experienced the horrors of the war during the Thirty Years' War from 1618-1648. The new gallows on Galgenbuck was built in 1622, at the same place in 1380 a gallows was mentioned. From 1619-1650 there was also a fast gallows on the market square. In 1632, the Swedish King Gustav - Adolf moved to a quarter in Windsheim. Due to the many billets Windsheim had to suffer greatly, so that in 1635 the city had just about 50 households. On March 10, 1648, a 16,000-strong Swedish army moved to take over the city in the morning. After heavy artillery fire, the city capitulated on 13 March. In the following days the Swedes requisitioned many food and horses. On March 16, they left the city again. The marching troops incarcerated the surrounding villages: Ickelheim, Sontheim, Buchheim and Ergersheim.

      The restoration of the devastated buildings began. The brickworks were restored in 1653, 1654 the wall around the cemetery, in 1657 the lower mill (Neumühle) burnt down in 1634, in 1662 the beautiful well dug by the enemies. Windsheim had in Nuremberg still 20,000, - fl. War debts, which were borrowed from there.

      Viele Bürger wanderten damals aus, bis 1678 Kaiser Leopold es verbot. Der erste Buchdrucker ist 1680 nachgewiesen. 1691 hatte Windsheim erst wieder 277 Einwohner. Auch nach Ende des 30-jährigen Krieges gingen die Kriegszahlungen weiter, der Einfall der Türken und der Franzosen verbreiteten Angst. Die Einquartierungen von Truppen nahm kein Ende und die dadurch entstanden Kosten stiegen ins Unermessliche. 1688 wurden die Türken bei Wien geschlagen, 1704 die Franzosen und die Bayern. Bereits 1702 besuchte König Joseph I.(später Kaiser Joseph I.) Windsheim und bestätigte wieder der Stadt ihre Privilegien. Das Rathaus wurde 1713-1717 erbaut, der Vorgängerbau, ein Fachwerkbau, wurde abgebrochen. Die Statue Kaiser Karl VI. wurde 1727 auf dem Schönen Brunnen angebracht, anstelle des Denkmals des sagenhaften "Stadtgründers Windegast". Am 8. Mai 1728 brach während eines schweren Gewitters, durch Blitzschlag, ein Brand im Hospital aus. Dieser Brand vernichtete die Heuscheune, den Schiebe- und Mastochsenstall, ebenfalls davon betroffen war der Kirchturm der Spitalkirche mit allen drei Glocken. Im Juni 1728 wurde zum brechen von 700 Quader aus dem Sontheimer Steinbruch zum Wiederaufbau des Kirchturms ein Auftrag vergeben. Im August 1728 wurde der Glockengießer Christian Viktor Herold aus Nürnberg beauftragt die drei Glocken für den Kirchturm zu gießen. Erst im April 1729 wurde ein Auftrag an den Uhrmacher Johann Michael Vogler aus Ellingen vergeben die Uhr für den Turm zu bauen. Beim großen Stadtbrand 1730 wurde das von 1713-1717 neu erbaute Rathaus ein Raub der Flammen. Es wurde ebenso wie die zerstörte Kilianskirche, durch Spenden und Sammlungen, wieder aufgebaut. Das Rathaus war bereits 1732 wieder fertig, die Stadtkirche wurde von 1731-1744 wieder erbaut. Eine kleine, 1428 geweihte, Heilig-Kreuz oder Stephanus Kapelle wurde 1731 abgebrochen, sie stand neben dem Augustinerkloster. Zigeuner entdecken 1736 auf dem Kehrenberg einen Gesundbrunnen, 1752 erscheint darüber eine Beschreibung. Die erste Windsheimer Zeitung erscheint 1754.

      In the last year of the Seven Years' War in 1762 Windsheim was looted by Prussian soldiers, the withdrawal took two hostages and brought them to Bamberg. These were for 12,000, -fl. triggered again. In addition, the Prussians took with them large quantities of weapons and horses. The imperial cities have always had to allocate quotas for the Reichsarmee, and for the upcoming war against France, these have been increased to three times. In 1793 there were significant troop marches of the imperial troops, in the same year Windsheim had in the Reichsoperationskasse 5.000, -fl. numbers. In 1794 Windsheim joined the general war effort against France.

      When in 1796 French troops had already lodged in Windsheim, the council decided, under pressure from the inhabitants, to go under the Prussian crown and obtain the protection of the Prussian king. Then the French had to leave Windsheim again. In 1801 a peace treaty ended the war with France. In 1802 Windsheim came to Kurbayern. In 1804 Windsheim was ceded to Prussia. In November 1804 Windsheim received a Prussian garrison. At the end of 1805, the French occupied the principality of Ansbach, so a war between France and Prussia was imminent. In the fall of 1806 the Prussian garrison was withdrawn from Windsheim and shortly afterwards the French occupied Windsheim and began to pillage the surrounding villages. During the Prussian-French war, the billets took no end, after the Peace of Tilsit in 1807, the Principality of Bayreuth was ceded to France. 1809, the city was briefly Austrian and in the same year again French. In 1810, the Principal Tower Bayreuth was ceded to Bavaria by France, so Windsheim was again Bavarian.

In 1810, the Principal Tower Bayreuth was ceded to Bavaria by France, so Windsheim was again Bavarian.

      The city court was in 1812 a royal Bavarian district court. The war between France and Russia, which likewise broke out in 1812, also meant that Bavaria should take part in the campaign against Russia. After the French defeat in Russia it came from 16.-18. October 1813 to the Battle of Nations near Leipzig in which the allied troops defeated Napoleon. The victorious troops marched on to Paris, which was taken on April 30, 1814. Napoleon was banished to Elba, after his flight back to France began again huge troop movements towards France again the endless billeting and cost significant, this was in the years 1813-1815. In 1815 alone 63 moved. 530 men Russian troops heading for France. After Napoleon was finally defeated in 1815 in Waterloo (Belgium) they came back on their way back. Due to the many marches and quarterings there were 1816-17 years of hunger in the city.

      The Windsheim Landwehr was founded in 1814 and dissolved again in 1869. During this time each community had its own battalion. Only in 1817 began quiet years for Windsheim. In the years 1819-1847, the city center was paved. In 1866, the German-Austrian war brought back some quarters. 1876, the railway line Windsheim-Neustadt was opened. After renewing the city walls in 1872, it was discovered that the annual maintenance costs would be too expensive, and in 1875 the town wall was demolished. Originally they wanted to leave the towers and gates, but this failed due to financial reasons.

      Well-known sons of the city are GWSteller 1709-1746 Important zoologist and North Asian researcher, Franz Daniel Pastorius 1651-1719, who founded the city of Germantown in America in 1683 and Georg Brenck 1564-1635 the famous Windsheim carver. Andreas Johannes Jaeckel 1822-1885, pastor in Windsheim and important natural scientist and folklore researcher.

      The foundation stone, the today's cure park, was created already 1730 after Markgräflichem model. Windsheim owned 5 outlying water mills and 2 within Roßmühlen. The history of Windsheim as a spa begins as early as 1891. At the harbor market, a mineral spring is excavated (later St. Anna - source). In 1902 the brothers Schwarz drilled the first salt-water well in 156 mtr. Depth (Schönthal spring). The Kurhaus was built in 1905-1906. Winegrowing in Windsheim, which has been known since the 14th century, ended in 1905 and the vineyards became farmland. Another brine source is drilled in 1907. This was the foundation stone for today 's spa and spa town. Already since 1881 water pipes were laid. In the years 1907-1911 a new water pipe was laid by Altseligenbach to Windsheim. This allowed the first house connections with running water, before the water was brought from wells with buckets in the respective houses. The first phones came in 1910. The first cinema opened in 1912. As the automobiles took over, a pavement toll was introduced, which was levied on the city. This was canceled in 1924 again. 750 men participated in the First World War, 77 of them fell.

      From 1884, the industrial age also began for Windsheim. It established 5 larger companies. Already in 1884 the gypsum works Haberstroh and Fluhrer were founded. In 1905 the agricultural machinery factory Schmotzer 2 followed . The Maschinenfabrik Hofmann 3 in 1919. The iron foundry Hubert Hofmann, now foundry Heunisch 4 , was built in 1922. After the First World War, industrialization continued. The source distribution came to this. During inflation in 1923 Windsheim even printed its own bills. The war memorial with the Roland was built 1926-28.

      In 1932, the so-called "Oberlandhaus" was built by the "Bund Oberland" and inaugurated on 27 September. The previous building built in 1929 had fallen victim to an arson attack. The "Bund Oberland" was the successor to the dissolved Free Corps "Oberland" and had at that time a center in the castle Hoheneck 10 at Ipsheim. The "Oberlandhaus" , which was located northwest of Bad Windsheim on a southern slope, was predominantly a timber construction, The entrance area was decorated with carvings the horse heads and runes represent. Originally it had its own well. On hiking days, the hikers were treated to drinks and a wide Aufmarschweg connected it with the wine tower hill and the current spa park. Until the year 2000 it served for celebrations of young people at the same time accommodation. In 2000 it was demolished by the city on the grounds that it was located in the catchment area of ​​a spring, which was to contribute to the protection of the Badprädikats. As a replacement, a simple shelter was set up at the Gräfweiher, but in reality this is not an adequate substitute for the Oberlandhaus.
      In September 1933, at first 50 men of the FAD (Voluntary Labor Service) were quartered in the so-called "Old Tax Office". A short time later, the strength increased to 216 men. In the same building and also in 1933, a SA guide school for 80 men was set up. On the grounds of the former gypsum factory Walter founded in 1902, the so-called RAD camp was built by the FAD in 1933/34. (The FAD merged into the RAD.) This was funded by the city as developer and sponsor.
      The U-shapedwooden crew room was already occupied in the spring of 1934. The also wooden sports hall, now Stadthalle, with a size of 884 square meters was built in 1934. In May 1934, the first Kamerdschaftsabend of the Arbeitsdienstmen took place in this gymnasium. The first known lease is from 1935 and was closed with the RAD (Reich Labor Service). On the associated 5130 square meter roll call square was a memorial which was demolished in 1945. In addition, the camp had 5000 square meters of vegetable land for its own supply. After the war, the camp was used to house displaced persons. After the conversion of the camp in 1948, it was used until demolition in 1984 for various schools (school on Schellenfeld). After installing a new floor, the large sports hall continued to be used as a sports hall and as a city and festival hall. In 1949 she received a main entrance with a stem and a short time later a side supply tract. It is still used today as so-called "Old Town Hall".
      The land consolidation in Windsheim also began in 1934 and this was the workmen who were stationed in the RAD camp were heavily used and successfully used. The area to be cleaned amounted to 28,000 day work and was at the time the largest in Bavaria.
      From 1934 on the wine tower a Thingstätte was built and planted an oak grove (details under wine tower). It was a wide Aufmarschstraße from the wine tower hill towards Oberlandhaus expelled and built.
      Also in 1934, Josef Späth from Munich bought the decommissioned Haberstroh`sche Gipsfabrik. Späth modernized the factory to the latest technical standards and employed about 50 workers. Decades later, the gypsum factory was taken over by Heidelberger-Zement and decommissioned in 1986 after it became unprofitable. For a long time it was as an industrial wasteland, now the building "Dreamland" and "Unterm Weinturm" was built on the site.
      From 1936 began the construction of the airfield in Illesheim by the German Air Force. For their employees and officers in Windsheim flats were built in the Blumenstraße, on the Westring, on the Külsheimer Straße and in the Bodenfeldstraße, then the Herrmann-Göring settlement. With the 2nd construction phase, 107 apartments were completed here. The topping-out ceremony was in April 1938. The synagogue in Windsheim was demolished after its devastation in 1938 the following year. In December 1938, the conversion of an annex building of the Kurhaus to a war victims home began. The Catholic Church of St. Bonifaz was inaugurated in May 1939. Also in 1938/39 began building "Am Kurpark". In July 1939, a major fire was caused by lightning, in the then Maschinenfabrik Schmotzer, this caused huge damage. At the end of the war, tank bans were still being erected. On April 12, 1945, 200-300 women demonstrated against defensive measures on the market square. On April 13, Christel Schmotzer was shot and killed by the Gestapo in retaliation and deterrence. Today a plaque reminds of it. On April 15, the Americans occupied Windsheim without a fight. By the Second World War Windsheim had 195 killed and 88 missing to complain. April, the Americans occupied Windsheim without a fight. By the Second World War Windsheim had 195 killed and 88 missing to complain. April, the Americans occupied Windsheim without a fight. By the Second World War Windsheim had 195 killed and 88 missing to complain.
