Bad Oberdorf is a district of the Bad Hindelang market in the Bavarian-Swabian district of Oberallgäu .
In 1900 , Prince Regent Luitpold of Bavaria awarded Oberdorf the title " Bad ". The reason was the use of a sulfur spring at the foot of the Iseler (1886 m).
Bad Oberdorf was devastated several times in the past century, particularly badly in 1924, by devastating floods from the torrent .
On the agricultural property that Ilse Heß (wife of Rudolf Heß ) managed in Bad Oberdorf near Bad Hindelang in the Allgäu , a subcamp of the Dachau concentration camp occupied by a prisoner was set up in March / April 1945 .
Sacred buildings
In Bad Oberdorf there is the Church of Our Lady in the Ostrachtal and St. Jodokus, rich in art treasures . Here is u. a. to see a Madonna picture by Hans Holbein the Elder , which was only rediscovered in 1935.
The path chapel Scholl in Bad Oberdorf stands on the banks of the Hirschbach on the outskirts.
It should have been built in the first half of the 19th century. The plastered quarry stone building opens to the southeast with a round arch , under which a figure of Mary with a carved head and carved hands can be seen. The Christ comes from the high baroque period . The arma Christi , the weapons of Christ, are indicated by angel figures with spears and hyssop staff . They were created around 1790 and could have emerged from the Eberhard workshops in Hindelang .
In 1895 the Lourdes Chapel was built near the Schanzpark in Bad Oberdorf. It goes back to a foundation of the property owners Maria Anna and Josepha Scholl. It had a shingle roof until 1965 , when it was covered with copper; In 1967 lead-glazed windows were donated. Since 1972, like the war memorial chapel , it has been under the care of the church. In 1973 the holy water kettle and the wrought iron grille in front of the figurative decorations were purchased. The last comprehensive renovation of the listed building took place in 1994.
The war memorial chapel is the successor to the former Jodokus chapel, built in 1950 . An atonement cross from 1603 is attached to one of the outer walls , which was once integrated into the Jodokus Chapel. Inside there is a classical figure of the dungeon Christ , which was probably created around 1780 in the vicinity of the Eberhard workshops. It was also previously in the Jodokus Chapel.
There is a wayside shrine with a late Baroque depiction of Christ resting on Bad Oberdorfer Straße . The figure comes from the early days of the Melchior-Eberhard workshop and was probably created around 1740.
There is a second atonement cross at the exit to Bad Hindelang.
A boundary stone from around 1700 shows two coats of arms . However, the sandstone slabs are badly damaged by weathering .
Museums
A small local history museum has been set up in the upper mill . Bad Oberdorf has a "Peace History Museum" that commemorates people who campaigned for peace and reconciliation.
Hammer forging
From 1490, under Count Hugo von Montfort-Rothenfels, iron ore was mined in the vicinity of the Horn Chapel . Around 1540 a smelter was set up between Hindelang and Hinterstein , from which the hammer mills in the Ostrachtal benefited. Of the water- powered iron hammers, which were once mainly used to manufacture halberds and Landsknecht skewers , and later to produce hand-forged mountain shoe nails and frying pans , three have been preserved and are still in use: The Brutscher hammer forge, an 18th century column construction on a rolling stone base , the hammer forge Besler, Wille, Scholl as a single-storey quarry stone building with individual stud walls , also from the 18th century, and the hammer forge Hartmann. It has also been preserved in the form of a single-storey quarry stone building from the 18th century, which, however, received a new upper wall wreath made of bricks and a new roof in the 19th century. Other nail smithies are no longer in operation as such, but have been preserved as structures, such as the nail smithy Brutscher bei Wildbach, a shingled house with a pitched roof that was built in the 18th and 19th centuries. Century as an elevated frame structure was built, the nail forges Keck, Haas and H. Schmid as well as the former cutlery for house No. 100.
