location

Bühlerzell is located in the Bühler valley, which flows further down the valley towards the Kocher , between the district town of Schwäbisch Hall about 18 km in the northwest and Ellwangen about 16 km in the east-southeast. The eponymous village on the road is about 22 km away from both cities.

It is part of the natural areas of the Swabian-Franconian Forest Mountains and Hohenloher-Haller Ebene . More than 50% of the community area is covered with forest.

Neighboring communities

The community borders in the north on Bühlertann , in the east on Rosenberg , in the south on Adelmannsfelden , both in the Ostalbkreis , in the south-west on Sulzbach-Laufen and in the north-west on Obersontheim .

The municipal area of ​​Bühlerzells is bounded in the east by the valley of the blind red and divided by the course of the more important Bühler, which enters the municipality from the southeast and runs northwards from about the hamlet of Heilberg. The river, which runs in a continuously wider and more open hollow, is also followed by the main traffic axis of the L 1072; several streams run to it from east and west, which have divided the surrounding plateau into small ridges in the mouth area, on which the smaller transverse axes of traffic rise and those of Open up and connect hamlets and individual farmsteads with settled clearing islands on the heights.

Community structure

The municipality of Bühlerzell with the municipality of Geifertshofen, which was independent until the municipal reform in Baden-Württemberg, includes 33 villages, hamlets, farms and houses.

The district of the former municipality of Geifertshofen, in terms of area significantly smaller than that of the former Bühlerzell, occupies the western part of the municipality. The marker boundary follows about a line 0.5–1.5 km west of the Bühlerlauf and adheres roughly to the upper left edge of the slope of the river valley. The largest town in this area is Geifertshofen itself, with around 350 inhabitants, which is located quite far to the north in the stepped bay of the Schleifseebach . The Weißenhof is located on the Göbelsrain in the vicinity, about 1 km northwest of the center of the village . The Teuerzen-Sägmühle is located 3 km south-west in a forest clearing on the upper Klingenbach . To the south of the village and above the steep slope of the Denzelhalde lies the scattered group of farmsteads consisting of Wurzelhof, Wurzelhaus and Wurzelbühl, a little further east is the hamlet of Imberg, all no more than one kilometer from Geifertshofen. Another nearly kilometer south-east of Imberg lies the hamlet of Trögelsberg on the same small plateau as Imberg on a foothill to the Bühlertal in the east, from whose slope edge you can see Bühlerzell in the valley. Further south, the plateau drops to the trough of the lower Klingenbach valley, here the hamlet of Säghalden is still on the northern edge of the slope, down in the valley the riding house, on the other side the fountain house. At the top of the mountain ridge that adjoins it to the south and extends from east to west, Gantenwald lies on the K 2632, of which only the western part lies on the Geifertshofener district, and further west Immersberg. Between the two hamlets, a cul-de-sac branches off to the south to Hambacher Mühle in Hambachtal, the southernmost settlement on the Geifertshofen district.

The Geifertshofener district also includes the almost 0.7 km² large and now uninhabited community exclave Leippersberg, located north of the lower Fischach valley , whose left lower course is shared by the communities of Obersontheim and Bühlerzell, above the spur of the Fischach and Bühler valleys, less than 0.5 km north of the Fischach, on whose southern bank the rest of the Geifertshofener district ends in the north.

The larger eastern and southern part of the area of ​​the municipality belongs to the district of Bühlerzell. The largest settlement in the community is the village of Bühlerzell itself, which lies on both sides of the river in the Bühlertal trough, in the area of ​​a valley spider into which three stream valleys flow from the right and a stream valley from the left. In the vicinity of Bühlerzell, a good kilometer northeast on the edge of the plateau and close to the northern boundary of the municipality, the hamlet of Eichberg, less than 2 km east of the village on the K 2627 to Kammerstatt, is the Benzenhof homestead, and about a kilometer south of the center of the village is the small residential area Rossberg on the mountain ledge of the same name to the Bühler.

Up Bühler to the south in the valley lies the third largest district Heilberg with 130 inhabitants, and further south-east there is Senzenberg with the brick mill in the confluent Gruppenbachtal . All other settlements are noticeably off the axis of the Bühlertal.

The northernmost part of the municipality is the hamlet Holenstein, with 110 inhabitants it is the fourth largest. It is located about 2.5 km northeast of the village of Bühlerzell, in a northern tongue of the municipality towards Bühlertann, in the valley of the Brauner Bach , which runs towards the Avenbach .

On the ridge south of Holenstein, east of the Bühler valley and west of the Blinde-Rot valley, a series of small settlement areas lie one after the other in lined up clearing islands. The northernmost is the hamlet Kammerstatt with its 70 inhabitants, about 3.0 km northeast of Bühlerzell. It is followed by the Spatzenhof farmstead and the hamlets of Mangoldshausen and Schönbronn, which is 3.5 km south-east of Bühlerzell. Behind a piece of forest about one kilometer to the south-east lies the hamlet of Hochbronn just above the Uhlbach municipal boundary stream.

To the east of Mangoldshausen there is another large field island in the forest, of which the southern part of the municipality of Adelmannsfelden belongs, in the north are the Bühlerzell hamlets of Röhmen and Hinterwald. The Grafenhof holiday complex stands between the two, and the Röhmensägmühle, the easternmost settlement in the municipality, is located just to the east of it in the Blinde-Rot-Tal.

Its southernmost is the hamlet of Steinenbühl, it is about 0.5 km to the left of the upper Bühler in a corridor island on the level where the hamlet of Spitzenberg, the Lautenhof farmstead, the Gerabronn hamlet and the Stockhäusle also accompany the Bühler on the left. In the valley of the southern Klingenbach tributary Hambach , on the road to Gantenwald, the eastern part of which is also part of the Bühlerzell district, is the single house Hölzle.

history

The village of Bühlerzell was probably founded around the year 800 AD by monks from the Ellwangen monastery. The branch served on the one hand as a border and support point, on the other hand, through forest clearing and the establishment of farms, economic use began. The place name still shows the origin of a "Celle an der Bühler". For most of its history, Bühlerzell has belonged to the prince provosts of Ellwangen.

Geifertshofen was first mentioned in a document in 1085. It was initially owned by the Comburg monastery and later came under the control of the Limpurg taverns and thus from 1500 in the Franconian Empire .

In 1938 Geifertshofen, until then part of the Oberamt Gaildorf , and Bühlerzell, which until then had been part of the Oberamt Ellwangen , were added to the new district of Schwäbisch Hall. On January 1, 1972, Geifertshofen was incorporated into Bühlerzell.

During the Second World War , from 1944 to 1945, a farm in the suburb of Gantenwald set up a foster home for foreign children for forced laborers , where most of the babies died due to the catastrophic living conditions. In 1986 a cross was erected at the Gantenwald Memorial and in 1988 a memorial stone with a sculpture by the sculptor Hermann Koziol was placed in the graveyard . A commemorative inscription by the poet Luise Rinser commemorates the perished forced labor women from the Soviet Union and Poland and their children. The cemetery, located in a corridor east of Gantenwald, can be reached from the steep path of the K 2632 Heilberg – Gantenwald over a 200 m sandy path through the hillside forest.

On January 1, 1972, the previously independent municipality Geifertshofen was incorporated.

On November 23, 2006, the Stuttgart Regional Council awarded the municipality of Bühlerzell the title of state-approved resort .
