history

Bremen was first mentioned in 1272. The place name Bremen is derived from the old word "Brame" (blackberry). In 1282 Bremen and Friedberg Castle were owned by the Counts of Nellenburg-Veringen. A tithe right is documented from the year 1357. In a document dated August 25, 1553, the spot is named as Prema . For a long time, Bremen was administratively divided: One part belonged to the Grafschaft Friedberg in the Hohentengen district, a second part to the Scheer rule . Both were owned by the Princes of Thurn and Taxis . The Ostrach formed the border of the County of Friedberg. Since almost all the houses were on the left bank of the Ostrach in Sigmaringisches Forst, Sigmaringen also spoke the sovereignty and embarrassing jurisdiction. In 1799, during the Battle of Ostrach , Bremen was plundered twice and the inn was riddled with bullets. An eventful battle for Hohentengen ensued, which was taken and lost several times, until the imperial Austrian troops finally forced the French to retreat by taking away the villages of Bremen and Enzkofen. In 1806 the Princely House lost its sovereign rights in its territories to the Kingdom of Württemberg due to the Rhine Confederation Act . The parts came to the Oberamt Scheer and Oberamt Saulgau . The Saulgau District Office became the Saulgau District in 1934 . As part of the municipal reform in Baden-Württemberg, Bremen was incorporated into Hohentengen on January 1, 1975.

Culture and sights

Buildings

  • In earlier times, when there was no chapel in the village, the village community center (former town hall) was also a chapel. For this, a bell tower was placed on the roof of the town hall. The volunteer fire brigade was also housed in the same building from 1888 . Since 1993, the no longer required office rooms on the upper floor have been used as meeting rooms by local associations. It was renovated and added on in 2007/2008.
  • The Maria Königin chapel in the center of the village was only built in 1957. This makes this chapel the youngest village chapel in the Göge. The chapel was renovated in 2007.
  • The Härle grain mill , which dates from 1823 and was operated as a cooperative mill from 1920 to 1985, is located on the Ostrach .
  • In Bremen on the way to Hohentengen there was a stone cross that had disappeared after 1938.
