origin of the name

the research over the origin of the name getting decrease/go back in the antiquity. Evidence for it is above all documents from the monastery Gerode. The name „getting “is to come from the word „Hold “(= mild benevolent goddess or woman). This word can mundartlich in addition, as much as „gets “to mean, what would correspond „to the forest “. In old documents one finds also the name getting fertilizing. Whereby the expression in addition,again from „striking lungs “to come could. That is called „forest pasture at a slope “. From it it is to be concluded that getting a forest settlement one called. The villages with the ending „- “all ungen into an older settlement period were shifted. Around the fact it is possible that the emergence on the Kolonisationto lead back is. Perhaps the place already belonged before 531 to 2. Settlement period (all places with „- ungen “), when Franconias defeated Thuringia. Afterwards the north of the calibration field belonged to getting to the Saxonia, thus also. Also the Saxonian characteristics and peculiarities were taken over. Thus leaves itselfalso explain that a language border runs by getting. Humans speak here of Lower Saxony, while one speaks in the neighboring place Bischofferode upper-German.

history

early history and Ersterwähung 1266

the establishment time Holungens are appropriate after documents monastery of the Gerode in the period between 531 and 800. In the following centuries there were many wartime situations in the place and in the environment. Heinrich I. strikes 933. Hungary to the Unstrut. 22 years later this succeeds also to its son Otto the large one on the Lechfelde. Afterwards peace turns in the country in. Between 1118 and 1120 the monastery Gerode develops. In this year the Thüringer land count Heinrich Raspe had died. It was of 1236 to 1247 national gentleman of a part of the Mark do-that-stede, the today's Duderstadt. Elizabeth of Thuringia was its sister-in-law. 1246 he could be selected to the Gegenkönig of Friedrich second. After its death one fought for the inheritance of the Thüringer of land count house, whereby getting one devastated.Many inhabitants fled in this time after Duderstadt. These assumptions are partly occupied by documents from that years 1266 and 1299. The documents of 1266 place also the first documentary mention Holungens under the name „to Haldrungen “there. Between 1350 and 1370 the village became againconstructed and Lohra belonged to the county . Since 1370 belonged getting then to the county Honstein and 1431 it became by exchange the monastery village of the monastery Gerode, which was destroyed 1525 in the course of the farmer wars.

the time up to the German Empire of

that Dreissigjährige war did not make also before getting stop and 1626 came it to large devastations by the army of duke Christian von Braunschweig. In the year 1701 Prussia became kingdom, but the calibration field, thus also getting were further subordinated to the cure principality Mainz. Against Friedrich that The calibration field carried and stood large ones out between 1740 - 1786 war services for Austria in the war against Prussia. Many Holunger were involved in these wars or could with the cure Main hissing Husarencorps be enlisted. Thus one finds also today still some Holunger master names in Vienna. 1802the calibration field was finally attached nevertheless at Prussia. This was at the 3. August, the birthday of the Prussia king Friedrich William III..

The Prussian rule held only four years and ten weeks, up to the years 1806 and 1807, in those for Prussia nearly completelyone destroyed. In addition half of the countries, as well as the great power position were robbed from it. In the year 1806 one lost the battle with Jena and Auerstedt, whereby Napoleon already took in the December of the yearly the two eichsfeldischen circles, thus also to getting under possession. Friedrich William thatThird fled with its wife and the prince after Memel. The Frenchmen required high deliveries, which had to carry the Holunger out over the monastery Gerode. 1807 came then the calibration field to the Kingdom of Westphalia with the capital Kassel. At the 1. January 1808 stepped the civilLaw book, „the code Napoleon “, into force. The Jungmannen had to carry war service out in the army of the Frenchmen now.

The Cholera looked for the circle Worbis in the year 1850 home. The neighboring place white fount had to register most dead ones, getting was only small concerned. In September 1855 the king visited many places in the circle. The calibration field had suffered much by the liberty wars, gave itHarvest failures and many diseases. Money for the reconstruction of some burned down houses received getting from it. To 2. February 1861 died king Friedrich William IV., his brother William I.stepped to his place. In the same year also the establishment of the contactor association and the development took placethe Chaussee over the grass forest. The Holunger was dissatisfied with this development, since another variant for the place would have been more favorable. In February 1865 there was a large process was therefore lost. The Chaussee led from Worbis across the sun stone after Gerode anda half hour was further as the old way. Getting was thereby nearly completely of the tourism final.
