Branchweilerhof History

The first official records from the Branchweilerhof, then called “Brunchwilre” dates back to the year 1190 AD. A record from the Year 1225 refers to the Farmstead with the name “Branchvillare”. In the year 1275 Pfalzgraf (Count) Ludwig der Strenge ordered a Hospital to be built on the site of the Branchweilerhof, as during that time of Epidemics, such Hospitals where built away from Towns. Pfalzgraf (Count) Johann Casimir in 1578 left the management of the Branchweilerhof to the Neustadter University which had to pay yearly, out of the Farm yields, 11 Fuder of wine and 300 Malter Frucht.
