Surname

The name "Kögelhof" probably goes back to a family or nickname . Kegel (Kögel) is a very common family name in the Füssen area and can be found in the city from 1370 onwards.

history

The Kögelhof is first mentioned in 1316 as "Curia Kegel". At that time it was pledged by the Hochstift Augsburg to Dyepold and Ernest von Nesselwang . The other owners were:

  • around 1400: the Rüverin, a wealthy citizen from Füssen
  • around 1425: Heinz Frölich von Seeg
  • 1450: Jörg Klamer
  • around 1460: Utz Stadler von Holzleuten
  • 1470: Heinz Stadler and Anna, his sister, children of Utz Stadler
  • 1486: Jäck Lang from Schweingg
  • 1503: his son Hans Lang and his siblings
  • 1505: Mang Zäch von Osterreuten (part of the Eisenberg community )
  • 1519: Stefan von Hohenberg, owner of the small estate of Falkensberg . He incorporated the Kögelhof into the Falkensberg domain. While this was released by the previous owner, Emperor Maximilian I, from the fiefdom of the bishopric and became an allodial property , the Kögelhofgut remained a fiefdom of the high estates . Stefan von Hohenberg also acquired the Kögelweiher northwest of the Kögelhof, which was used for fish farming.
  • around 1535: Jörg von Hohenberg, son of Stefan von Hohenberg
  • around 1555: Hans von Hohenberg zu Falkensberg, who inherited his brother Jörg
  • 1588: Sale of the Falkensberg estate with the Kögelhof to the free imperial city of Kempten , which leased the Kögelhof to Thomas Lipp (1588–1602) and Hans Mayer (1602–1610) from Kempten. In 1593 the house and the stables were rebuilt.
  • 1610: Sale of the Falkensberg estate with the Kögelhof to the St. Mang monastery . This incorporated the new acquisitions administratively into the administrative office in Rückholz and set up tenants (tenants). These were: Jakob Fischer (from 1610) - Veit Eberle (1622–1662) - Hans Eberle (from 1662) - Peter Eberle (from 1689–1696) - Adam Eberle (from 1718) - Hans Adam Eberle (from 1740) - Felix Eberle (from 1777) - Matthias Eberle (1797–1801)
  • 1803: After the abolition of the monastery, the Kögelhof passed to the Prince of Öttingen- Wallerstein. He had lower jurisdiction ( patrimonial court ) and all manorial rights, while state sovereignty over all ecclesiastical property came to Bavaria . The tenant of the Kögelhof at that time was Michael Poppler von Aleuthen (from 1801).
  • 1839: Sale to Baron Julius von Ponickau . The tenant was Xaver Eberle (from 1842).
  • 1848: After the liberation of the farmers , which was completed in 1848, Xaver Eberle was free to own the Kögelhof (until 1881)
  • 1881: Fridolin Paulsteiner von Schweingg (until 1907)

The Kögelhof still belonged to the municipality of Rückholz. Because of the great distance it was incorporated into the Eisenberg community in 1900 . In 1907 the farm was bought by the Nesselwang herd book cooperative, which transformed it into a cattle and pasture yard and leased the alp to a shepherd. Even today (2012) the tenant looks after around 60 young cattle.

Excursion destination

Shortly before or soon after the Second World War , the tenants gradually set up a simple restaurant on the Alpe Kögelhof. It has now developed into a popular excursion destination with a restaurant. It is worth visiting the small chapel next to the Kögelhof, where the cattle patron St. Wendelin is venerated. In 1889 Fridolin Paulsteiner had the church built.
