geography

location

Kleinglattbach is a good two kilometers northeast of the core town of Vaihingen an der Enz at about 250 m above sea level on the Glattbach . Neighboring villages are (clockwise from the northwest) Ensingen , Horrheim , Sersheim , Vaihingen an der Enz and Illingen .

traffic

Kleinglattbach is located on Landstrasse 1125 and on Kreisstrasse 1696, which leads to the center of Vaihingen an der Enz, around 3 kilometers away. The Vaihingen (Enz) train station on the Mannheim – Stuttgart high-speed line is just under a kilometer south of the town center.

In September 1853 the Bruchsal-Bietigheim railway line was opened. The “Vaihingen-Sersheim” train station was built near the village of Kleinglattbach, about three kilometers north of Vaihingen / Enz. At that time, this area was still far away and was only later renamed "Vaihingen (Enz) Reichsbahnhof" after the next larger town, Vaihingen an der Enz. After the Second World War, this station was called "Vaihingen (Enz) Nord", like the residential area that was growing next to it. In the meantime, this residential area has completely merged with the old village center around 1.5 kilometers away.

In October 1904, a single-track branch line was inaugurated, which branches off the main Bruchsal-Bietigheim line, which should open up the town of Vaihingen with Enzweihingen and the quarries and industrial plants. On the route of this branch line , Kleinglattbach also received its own stopping point directly on the edge of the village. A simple station building and a platform were built.

The Vaihingen (Enz) Nord station was closed after the opening of the Mannheim-Stuttgart high-speed line in October 1990, and the listed building went into private hands. The branch line was also closed.

history

Kleinglattbach / Wüsten Glattbach 1684 ( Andreas Kieser )

The first documentary mention in a Speyr document from 1023 says little. What is certain is that the village is older. It remains uncertain whether the town of Kleinglattbach mentioned in the document or perhaps also Großglattbach, seven kilometers south-west (now part of Mühlacker ) is meant. In 1293 the place was called Wüstenglattbach , which, like Dürrenglattbach , indicates that it was temporarily desolate in the High Middle Ages , i.e. depopulated by the effects of war, epidemics or other factors.

In the past, Kleinglattbach was administered from Ensingen . The town center, the Hofgut, was used by its owner at the time, the Duke of Württemberg , as a sheep farm.

The estate had been in the possession of the von Neurath family for almost a hundred years since 1862. Several officers and diplomats came from this family, the best known being Konstantin Freiherr von Neurath , who was German Foreign Minister from 1932 to 1938 and later Reich Protector in Bohemia and Moravia. After the Second World War, the manor house of the evangelical aid organization housed the boys' home school for around 70 orphaned children, mainly from eastern Germany, under the direction of Willibald Heldt. Today the estate is owned by the Sanders-Groeneveld family.

The small village church of St. Peter stands on the east side of the estate. It was originally a Romanesque building that was later rebuilt in the Gothic style. The recently renovated building houses a remarkable organ made by the Walcker company from Ludwigsburg. It dates from 1859, has a Gothic case and seven registers, but has not been playable for a long time.

In September 1959 a new Evangelical church was inaugurated on the so-called Bergle, a hill east of the old village center. Since the parish had grown a lot in the previous years due to the settlement of displaced persons, especially from Bessarabia , the influential pastor Adolf Greinert had forced this new church to be built.

On January 1, 1972, Kleinglattbach was incorporated into the town of Vaihingen an der Enz.
