Sichersdorf Village

Sichersdorf has been a part of the town of Stein since 1972. The Grundbach, a left tributary of the Rednitz, flows through the village.

The place was first mentioned in the Würzburg fief book of 1303 as "Siglasdorf". The knight Heinrich von Buttendorf was enfeoffed with a number of properties by the Würzburg bishop Andreas, including the tithe in Sichersdorf. The defining word of the place name is probably the personal name Sigilo.[5]Originally the place consisted of two, and from 1440 of three farms. In the middle of the 18th century one farm was divided.[6] Towards the end of the 18th century there were six properties and a community shepherd's house in Sichersdorf. The high court was the Brandenburg-Ansbach judge's office Roßtal. The village and community was governed by the Nuremberg district administrator's office. The landlords were the Nuremberg owners von Holzschuher (2 half farms), von Petz (1 estate), von Volckamer (1 estate), von Volckamer and von Löffelholz (1 farm).[7]From 1797 to 1808, the town was under the jurisdiction of the Cadolzburg Justice and Chamber Office. As part of the municipal edict, Sichersdorf was assigned to the Großweismannsdorf tax district, which was formed in 1808. It belonged to the rural community of Gutzberg, which was founded in the same year. 2 properties were under voluntary jurisdiction until 1812 and from 1820 to 1848 to the Lichtenhof patrimonial court, and 1 property was under the Volckamer patrimonial court until 1812.[8]On July 1, 1972, Sichersdorf was incorporated into the municipality of Gutzberg in Stein as part of the municipal reform.Source: Wikipedia

The route via Ober- and Unterbüchlein to Loch and further to Stein is always worth it.
