geography

Geographical location

Ablach is about ten kilometers south of Sigmaringen and about 25 kilometers north of Lake Constance . The village is located on the river Ablach in the Ablach valley, which was formed by ice age glaciers. Ablach is located on the southern edge of the Upper Danube Nature Park .

history

Early on settled Celts Ablachtal, of which the very name testifies Ablach itself. "Abela" contains perhaps the Indo-European part * off "water, water spirit" with an unidentified suffix -ela [?] Or an island of immortals in the Celtic Otherworld is in Irish " Emain Ablach " (island of apples). Individual finds from the Ennetacher Berg attest to the advance of the “ Magdalénien ” cultural group .

Allegedly traces of a Roman settlement were found west of the place. In the 30s of the last century people still told of a castle on the back protruding towards Ablach. In 1929, the German archaeologist Oscar Paret found Roman bricks above the steep drop to the south . Generally speaking, this is called a people's castle .

The first documentary mention of a Heinricus de Abilach as a witness of the document of Diethelm von Krenkingen , Bishop of Constance and abbot in Reichenau Monastery, dates back to 1202 . The place was originally in the area of Goldineshuntare , then in Gau Ratoldesbuch and later in the county of Sigmaringen . Mr. von Ablach is attested several times in later documents. In a document from January 27, 1292 there is talk of a castle after which a Johannis de Ablach named himself . The Wald monastery also had ownership and rights in the village in the 13th and 15th centuries . The of Ablach were at this time a ministerial-niederadlige family. A Renz von Ablach , probably the father of the nun Anne von Ablach (January 28, 1367), was the feudal man of the Truchsessen von Rohrdorf-Meßkirch. Furthermore, there is a Fridrich von Ablach (also called Friedrich ), who was probably a lawyer and advocate at the episcopal court in Constance.

Ablach came to the House of Habsburg as early as the 13th century. Austria gave Ablach as pledge, but retained the supremacy. The pledges were those of Hornstein-Hertenstein. In 1453 Werner von Zimmer bought the whole village of Ablach including all accessories for 650 guilders. From around 1595, Ablach joined the Castell-Gutenstein taverns .

In 1805 Napoleon rearranged the political borders in Central Europe, with state sovereignty over Ablach being transferred from Austria to Württemberg and in 1810 passed to Baden by treaty . With the contract of June 22nd and 27th, 1812, Ablach was awarded to the Principality of Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen in exchange for the village of Rast .

In the Second World War , Ablach was spared for a long time. However, since mid-April 1945 the French 1st Panzer Division, coming from the Rhine, advanced across the Black Forest in the direction of the Danube to Ulm. In order to protect the retreating military columns on Reichsstraße, today's Bundesstraße 311 , four Wehrmacht guns were brought into position in the village and one anti-aircraft gun on the "Emig". At around 9 a.m. on the morning of April 22, 1945, the French troops came under heavy artillery fire from Ablach when they were leaving Göggingen. An intense firefight ensued and several German soldiers were killed. During the battle, several Ablacher farms caught fire. French prisoners of war helped extinguish.

On January 1, 1975, Ablach was forcibly incorporated into Krauchenwies together with Hausen am Andelsbach.

coat of arms

In the upper part of the divided shield, on a red background, there is a protruding silver gooseneck with a golden beak and three golden balls on the curve of the neck. It is taken from the seals of the Lords of Ablach, which are attested as early as the 13th century. The red deer antlers on a silver background in the lower part of the coat of arms come from the coat of arms of the Castel taverns, which until 1805 owned the Gutenstein rulership and thus also the village of Ablach as an Austrian fiefdom. The upper half of the shield reverses the colors of the coat of arms of the Castel taverns.

The coat of arms was proposed by the Sigmaringen State Archives in 1947. It was awarded on January 28, 1949 by the Württemberg-Hohenzollern Ministry of the Interior (No. IV 3012 B / 13).
