Friedrichsdorf

Friedrichsdorf (German pronunciation: [ˈfʁiːdʁɪçsˌdɔʁf] ⓘ) is a town of the Hochtaunuskreis, some 20 km (12 mi) north of Frankfurt am Main in Hesse, Germany.

On the other hand, there are vast woodlands on the crest of the Taunus, where the highest point in Friedrichsdorf's rural areas can be found: the Gickelsburg at 471 m above sea level.

The zwieback factory "Emil Louis Pauly" became Milupa, still in business now as a baby food maker, and still headquartered in Friedrichsdorf.

Dillingen took its name from a village which had been forsaken in the Thirty Years' War, on the rural area of which Friedrichsdorf's Huguenots later settled.

He also states that the names on grave stones were French up and till 1914 and that Protestant Sunday services were held locally up until the same date.

The most important economic activity next to farming and linen weaving was said to be tilemaking, whose raw materials were dug from nearby clay pits.

In the late 17th century, through the Ingelheimer family's lordly leadership, fruit growing was brought to Burgholzhausen Seulberg was first mentioned in the Lorsch codex in 767.

In a somewhat less cheerful chapter in Seulberg's history, there were witch trials in the 17th century which resulted in 31 women being put to death.

The Temple was dedicated for operation in 1987 by then President of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Ezra Taft Benson.
