history

Prehistory, antiquity and the Middle Ages

Finds from the Neolithic and Bronze Ages show that people had lived in the municipality for a long time. The first settlement in today's municipal area was established by the Romans at the end of the first century AD. The excavation of a villa rustica (Roman manor with farm buildings and cult site) near the Totenbachmühle and other traces discovered during the renovation of the Martinskirche in 1904 prove this. The name Weil could be derived from the Latin villa .

In the 4th century Alemanni settled in the oldest part of the village, today's Maierhof. It is not certain whether the settlement has existed without interruption since then. In 1087, Breitenstein was mentioned for the first time. Rudolf von Breitenstein was a feudal man of the Count Palatine of Tübingen . In 1188 the village was first mentioned as Weyl in the Schaienbuch . The document says that Count Palatine Rudolf I of Tübingen donated his part of the village to the Bebenhausen Monastery, which he founded a year earlier . His brother remained the Fronhof (Maierhof) with the associated Fronbauern. Towards the end of the 13th century, Weil im Schönbuch, together with Breitenstein and Neuweiler, first mentioned in 1295, was almost entirely owned by the Bebenhausen monastery.

On the night before the peasant battle near Böblingen on May 12, 1525, the Swabian army camped under its leader Georg Truchsess von Waldburg-Zeil in the Seitenbach and Totenbachtal in Weil im Schönbuch. From here he moved with his troops to Böblingen early in the morning to destroy the peasants there.

Württemberg time

During the Reformation, the Bebenhausen monastery was dissolved in 1535, and Weil im Schönbuch became part of Württemberg .

On April 9, 1559, the parish fair, the entire village including the church and town hall was destroyed by arson. Only the somewhat secluded rectory and the nursing yard of the Bebenhausen monastery survived the disaster. The arsonist Enderlin Seytz was later caught in Hechingen , sentenced to death and executed.

During the Thirty Years' War on September 8, 1634, after the battle of Nördlingen , imperial Catholic troops raided Weil im Schönbuch, plundering and murdering, and brought the plague with them. Almost a third of the village population lost their lives in this war.

Because in the Schönbuch shortly before 1900

After the establishment of the Kingdom of Württemberg in 1806, the administrative structure was reorganized . As a result, the Bebenhausen monastery office was dissolved and Weil im Schönbuch was assigned to the Böblingen Oberamt (not to be equated with the current Böblingen district ).

In 1850, Weil im Schönbuch had 2,453 Protestant and 21 Catholic residents who lived and worked in 287 main and 165 auxiliary buildings. Because so was after Sindelfingen and Böblingen the third largest municipality in the upper office Böblingen.

Nazi era

During the district reform in Württemberg during the Nazi era , Weil im Schönbuch became part of the Böblingen district in 1938 .

During the last days of the Second World War , Weil im Schönbuch was the scene of heavy fighting between German and French troops on April 21 and 22, 1945. There were deaths among the population and soldiers, and 56 buildings were destroyed.

The name of the hallway "Beim broad Stein" indicates this.
