Bischofshöri
The Bischofshöri was an area between Constance and Berg as well as Münsterlingen and Gottlieben in what is now the Swiss canton of Thurgau , in which the farmers belonging to the Bishop of Constance had to pay the bishop and his clergy in kind and interest payments.
The Bischofshöri was first mentioned in 854 in a diploma from Ludwig the German and referred to as pagellus in Friedrich Barbarossa's privilege of 1155 for the Bishop's Church in Constance . This area on the northern edge of the Thurgau, located in a radius of about seven kilometers in the south around the bishopric of Konstanz, revealed itself as a once closed interest land and original equipment of the bishop's church, in which the most important service loans of the Konstanz church were located. In addition, the entire district initially seems to have belonged to the parish of St. Stephan in Konstanz . The Bailiwick of Eggen emerged from the southeastern part of the Bischofshöri .
