history
Bächlingen is a very old settlement. It is assumed that the place was already settled in the Merovingian period. The place is documented for the first time in a document that is dated between 719 and 759. Then the place is mentioned in a document in the Zwiefalter Chronik 1140. It says that Bächlingen belonged to the Count of Achalm in 1077 . At the time of the Franconian missionary work, Bächlingen was one of the original parishes of the Hohenlohe region. The former choir tower church from the 14th century has been rebuilt several times over the years. She received a late Gothic ship. In the course of the Reformation , the high altar and the two side altars were demolished and burned in a field near the village. The frescoes inside the church were covered with a layer of lime. During this time, Bächlingen was part of the parish in Langenburg, but became independent again in 1576.
In 1580 a grain floor was placed on the nave for times of need. The churchyard wall was re-fortified, the gate rebuilt and a roof provided. The place suffered great hardship during the Thirty Years' War . Billing and marching through the troops were the order of the day. In addition, there was the plague , which killed 240 people in the community.
In 1806 the municipality of Bächlingen was added to the Oberamt Gerabronn . Since the district reform of 1938, she was part of the district Crailsheim , in the course of the district reform in 1973 in the district of Schwäbisch Hall opened.
On February 1, 1972, Bächlingen was incorporated into Langenburg.
Söllbot was umgemeindet from Obersteinach to Bächlingen until 1828. Since January 1st, 1973 Söllbot is again part of Obersteinach, an Ilshofener district.

Culture and sights
The arch bridge over the Jagst, built in 1785, caught fire during World War II and was completely destroyed in the process. It was rebuilt from 1989 to 1991 for the planned cycle path from Rothenburg ob der Tauber to Heilbronn based on the historical model. According to the reconstruction company, it is the longest cantilevered wooden bridge in the Federal Republic of this construction.
The Johanneskirche was first mentioned in 1285 and is probably the oldest church in the entire area. The church, surrounded by a walled churchyard, was originally dedicated to the Virgin Mary , the Evangelist John and John the Baptist . The wall paintings in the choir room from 1360 are worth seeing, as is the barrel-vaulted sacristy with a carton underneath. The grave monument for knight Rezzo von Bächlingen from the 14th century is on the south side of the nave.
The former princely Hohenlohe fish ponds, whose origins go back to the 16th century, are in the north of the village. Three ponds have been preserved, two fish ponds lined with clay and a walled water basin. The complex includes a single-storey, narrow exposed half-timbered building, a single-storey plastered half-timbered residential building and a free-standing brick bakery. Four stone pillars with capitals stand in a 17 m × 18 m walled water basin. According to current research, it is assumed that the columns date from the 16th century and supported a fish house that was demolished in 1866. The single-storey building with a three-storey fruit floor is said to have covered the entire surface of the water and had a semi-open corridor running around three sides on the ground floor and a row of fish boxes on the fourth side of the building.
