geography

Geographical location

Überlingen am Ried is located in the middle between Singen am Hohentwiel and Radolfzell on Lake Constance .

structure

Überlingen am Ried includes the village of Überlingen am Ried and the Gaisenrain residential area .

history

The district was already settled in the earliest times, archaeological finds testify to a settlement of the urn field culture and the Alemanni . This Alemannic settlement originated in the 6th or 7th century and probably belonged to the Reichenau monastery .

The village was first mentioned on November 19, 1256 as Ze Uberlingen Im Ryete and emerged from a Kelhof that must have been in the area of ​​the eastern Brunnenstrasse / church square. The Vogt des Hohenkrähen, Heinrich IV. Von Friedingen , and the people priest von Mühlhausen had themselves certified by exchanging two women. The place name is derived from the personal name "Ibur".

The monastic possessions on the island of Reichenau were administered by the Ammannamt of the city of Radolfzell, to which the place belonged since the 13th century and remained there with the local rule until the beginning of the 19th century. In 1298, the House of Habsburg under King Albrecht I (HRR) acquired the bailiwick of the place and, according to the Habsburg land register, was part of the Habsburg office of Aach around 1300. In 1421 the Reichenau monastery gave the town of Radolfzell the castle and Ammann office in Überlingen am Ried as a pledge. In 1481 a chaplaincy was established.

During the German Peasants' War of 1524/25, the rebellious Überlingen peasants rebelled against the city of Radolfzell. As compensation for their participation in the siege of the city, in 1525 the village handed over the forests "Raitholz" and "Schachenwald" to the Radolfzell people. In 1538 the place finally became the property of the city of Radolfzell, which exercised the lower jurisdiction. The Landgraviate of Nellenburg had high jurisdiction .

Überlingen am Ried came to Württemberg in 1806 , then to Baden in 1810 and was assigned to the Radolfzell district office . The community developed into the model community of the district. The German Revolution of 1848/49 also left its mark on the village. In the turmoil of the revolution, 19 infantry rifles were bought for a vigilante group. The Überlingers wanted to prevent the revolution, which, as is well known, did not succeed. This was followed by the suffering of the Franco-Prussian War of 1870/71. When the Radolfzell District Office was dissolved in 1872, the place came to the Konstanz District Office .

This was followed by the slow transition of the village into the era of industrialization . For a short time there was even the concept of a Höribahn and a Lake Constance port. These plans provided for an electric narrow-gauge railway from Radolfzell via Bohlingen to Horn and Stein am Rhein, which was to be privately built. Überlingen am Ried would have played the role as a railway junction. The Baden government promised a subsidy. After twelve years of struggle and petitions submitted, the government in Karlsruhe refused the approval for the municipalities to assume an interest rate guarantee, as no private individual had agreed to implement the project.

After the First World War (1914–1918), electrification took place in Überlingen am Ried during the Weimar period . Inflation and unemployment followed. The Third Reich , which culminated in the Second War , brought false hopes about the country and also about Überlingen. Post-war history is characterized by the burdens of the years of distress, which the population found difficult to bear. After that, Überlingen slowly but steadily developed into a "comparatively exemplary" municipality. In 1962/1963 a new schoolhouse, which was exemplary for many, was built and inaugurated. In 1970/1971 the new building and the inauguration of the kindergarten followed.

Central events in the local history are the transfer of territory in 1967 and the incorporation in 1971. The latter was preceded by a vote by the local council of Überlingen am Ried on December 10, 1970. On December 15, 1970, two thirds of the people of Überlingen agreed to be incorporated into the town of Singen. Thus the previously independent municipality with 945 inhabitants and an area of ​​878 hectares and a budget of 802,000 DM was incorporated into Singen as the first of six municipalities on January 1st, 1971.

While Überlingen am Ried still had a population of 677 on June 6, 1961, today the town is the second largest district of Singen am Hohentwiel with more than 1,600 inhabitants.

religion

In 1788 the first parish of Überlingen am Ried was founded. The symbol of Catholic popular piety is the Madonna von Überlingen , a seated Maria with child carved from linden wood, which was made by a Swabian master around 1300. He was probably active on the west of Lake Constance near Radolfzell or in Linzgau north of Meersburg. When it came to Überlingen am Ried is not known, but it was later sold to Württemberg and was in the Lorenz Chapel in Rottweil as early as 1851.

The Protestants from Überlingen are looked after by the Protestant parish of Böhringen.
