Abstract The study of values in Europe, observable through the prism of welfare, consists of an examination of the values of various groups in the domain of welfare, e.g. in the expression and provision of ‘basic’ individual and group needs. The different values and practices of the majority and the minorities are a source of tension in the German society. German policy tries to direct the interaction between majority and minorities towards more cohesion and solidarity. At the same time it becomes more obvious that minority groups influence and challenge majority values.

  • „Historische Türme, Tore, Mauern Und Pfade“ - Die Ortsbefestigung in Sulzbach Am Main
    „Historische Türme, Tore, Mauern und Pfade“ - Die Ortsbefestigung in Sulzbach am Main Susanna Rizzo Grundlage: Uraufnahme / Flurkarte © Bayer. Vermessungsverwaltung; 7/15 1 Ortsbefestigungen und vor allem Dorfbefestigungen standen lange nicht im Focus des Interesses weder in der Forschung noch beim Erhalt historischer Bausubstanz. Auch für die Sulzbacher Ortsbefestigung lagen nur wenige schriftliche Informationen vor. Über eine vielseitige Recherche gelang es, ein fundiertes und spannendes Bild von der Geschichte und Funktion der Sulzbacher Ortsmauer zu zeichnen. Die Ergebnisse wurden 2008 in einem über 150 Seiten umfassenden Forschungsbericht festgehalten. Die archivalischen Untersuchungen dienten als Basis für die Restaurierung der ehemaligen Ortsbefestigung, die im Zeitraum 2012 - 2015 erfolgte, und waren Grundlage dieses Kapitels. Stellte die Errichtung der Sulzbacher Befestigung im Mittelalter ein bedeutendes Ereignis für die Ortschaft dar, das über Jahrhunderte die Ausdehnung der Dorfmark festlegte und dem Ort seinen ganz eigenen Charakter verlieh, steht die Ortsmauer heute für den positiven Umgang mit der Geschichte des Ortes und der historischen Bausubstanz. Westturm des Unteren Tores nach der Restaurierung von der Hauptstraße aus gesehen 2 Die Ausgangslage und die ersten Schritte Für die älteren Sulzbacher, denen die Mauer während der Kindheit als Spielplatz diente, gehörten die noch vorhandenen Mauerteile der ehemaligen Befestigung zum Ortsbild. Ihre historische Funktion und Bedeutung kam jedoch nicht zum Tragen. „Sie war halt da!“, hieß es unisono.(1) Bis dato war die Ortsmauer ebenfalls kaum Gegenstand heimatgeschichtlicher und wissenschaftlicher Forschungen gewesen und fand selten Erwähnung: Im Auszug der Denkmalliste(2) fanden sich drei Einträge zur Ortsbefestigung und ihren erhaltenen Bestandteilen in der Gemarkung Sulzbach am Main, nach denen sich von der um 1500 angelegten Ortsbefestigung vor allem Mauerteile am ehemaligen nördlichen Ortsrand sowie Rundtürme in der Haupt- und Jahnstraße erhalten hatten.
