history

In the Bohlingen district, numerous settlement findings from the Bronze Age were documented in the area of ​​the “Hinter Hof III” development . There is also evidence of a Roman manor and an early Alemannic settlement.

Bohlingen was first mentioned in the early Middle Ages (773 as Wobolginga ). Traces of settlement from this time have been found in what is now the “Hinter Hof III” development area. The monastery of St. Gallen had possessions ( Kelnhof ) . Later it belonged to the Bishop of Constance , who had it administered by ministerials . Later there was a separate rule Bohlingen, which from 1416 was in the hands of the Lords of Homburg as an Austrian fiefdom . In 1456 the rule came to the Salem monastery , in 1469 to the Counts of Sulz and in 1497 to the Bishop of Constance. The high jurisdiction was in the 15th century in the County of Nellenburg . Bohlingen was the seat of an office from 1686 . In 1803 Bohlingen came to Baden and was initially the seat of a district office , which was dissolved in 1810. Then the place belonged to the District Office Radolfzell . When it was dissolved in 1872, Bohlingen came to the Konstanz district office . On January 1, 1975 Bohlingen was incorporated into the city of Singen.

The "leaf shape" on the gallows mountain

The remains of seven palaces and castles can be found in the Bohlinger district:

  • The castle Bohlingen is on a plateau in spur position in North Bohli gene "In the round tower" in the present parish church of St. Pancras . The high entrance to the round tower classifies the residents of the residential tower as a noble family.
  • The castle Kastenbühl ( 587.4  m ) is located south-southwest of Bohlingen on a northern spur of Schienerberg mountain ( 715.6  m ).
  • The Frankenburg , a tower castle , mentioned in 1455 , is located southeast of Bohlingen.

The Burgstall , the hunting lodge and the Wittenspurg can also be mentioned in Singen's Bohlingen district . By chance, the historian Michael Losse came across ring walls during his research on Schiener Berg , which give clear indications of another previously unnamed castle site.

On May 1, 2010, the 7.60 m high observation platform Blattform was inaugurated on the Bohlinger Galgenberg . It enables a 360 ° view of the Schiener Berg, the Hegau and the Untersee; with good visibility up to the Allgäu Alps .
