According to legend, the victorious in the Saxon Wars Charlemagne moved to the Blood court of Verden 782 Saxons defeated at Main opposite the royal palace which he founded in Frankfurt. There are, however, no historical evidence. On the origin of the name, there is next to various other interpretations. The most likely of these is the assumption that the name derives from Sass Husen, ie a place where "sojourners" lived - as in the Middle Ages were called residents without full citizenship. In the early 12th Century were ministeriales Palatine Frankfurt down on the southern bank of the Main. Remember today, the Large and Small Rittergasse the ancient village of Sachsenhausen.

The only thing that's left of the Knights of Sachsenhausen, is their coat of arms (associated with the von Praunheim). This is used by the company Sachsenhausen well as souvenirs. The tasks of the ministry officials included the management of the Frankfurt and the Palatinate lying on the southern bank of the wild kingdom goods bans Dreieich. The names of the sexes are therefore found in the list of imperial mayor of Frankfurt. The further colonization of Sachsenhausen also appears in connection with the construction of the old bridge over the Main stand, which was first documented in 1222, but the construction may already be the end of the 12th Century was prompted by Kuno of Münzenberg, the large estates owned both sides of the river Main. The first timber construction was the mid-13th Century, replaced by a stone bridge. During the 13th Frankfurt century grew from a small settlement to the Hohenstaufen Palatinate, the Saalhof, grew into a self-governing city, which had gained more and more privileges, such as pledged by the release regalia, royal prerogatives, such as taxes and duties. 1220 the Frankfurter bailiwick was abolished and used a kingdom mayor. From 1266, an existing 43 members of the Council's documented testimony, the two mayors elected annually from 1311. During this time, the suburb of Sachsenhausen became a part of the city of Frankfurt. For the first time it is mentioned in the town Peace of 1318 explicitly (an Ordinance of the Council) as part of Frankfurt.
Late Middle Ages and Modern Times
After initially only knight families had settled in Sachsenhausen, settled late 13th and in the 14th Century, fishermen, laborers and craftsmen in the south bank of the Main. The Sachsenhausen German Order Coming became the scene of major political events rich. Already in the 13th Century found here at least three meetings of the General Chapter of the Order of the highest governance body instead. Emperor Louis the Bavarian published on 22 May 1324 the Sachsenhausen Appeal, in which he rejected the claim of the Pope to the approval of an election of a king. Henceforth enough supported by the majority of the electors for the lawful election of a king. An unknown priest who is to come (Frankfurt) has written a mystical writing in the German language, which was later published as Theologia German by Martin Luther and widely distributed. 1338 founded the Sachsenhausen citizens Heal Dymar a chapel, from which emerged later Dreikönigskirche. In July 1342 destroyed the Magdalene flood the Main Bridge and sat quite Sachsenhausen seven to twelve feet high under water, so that the entire population flee Sachsenhausen had on the hill of Mühlbergs. 1372 Frankfurt acquired a part of the Imperial Forest Dreieich, today's city forest, by Emperor Charles IV.

Modeled after the existing Gallus and or Bockenheimer waiting erected a small castle with houses, weapons caches, Watchtower and fountains. The gates of the bridge towers and the gates were locked at night, so that no one could get in or out. The traffic to and from Frankfurt was impossible. Since there was no priest in Sachsenhausen, but tion states the parish rights for church official acts throughout the city only the Pleban of Bartholomew pin, so the night was not a pastoral assistance to the Sachsenhausen possible. This led to great dissatisfaction of the citizens in Sachsenhausen. Until 1452 the city reached to mediation of Cardinal Nicholas of Cusa, the collection of Dreikönigskirche for daughter church of St. Bartholomew. The Reformation was quickly in Sachsenhausen many followers. In 1525, the Epiphany Church became the first church in Frankfurt, worked at the only Reformed preachers. 1531, the church received with Peter Pfeiffer assigned an evangelical preacher firmly, who had been previously last Guardian of the Frankfurt Barfüßerklosters.
