history

The place was first mentioned in 1209, when Heinrich von Reutte gave the Ottobeuren monastery a farm in Oberwestheim and Dankelsried. The first written mention of the place was on November 24, 1391. Anna von Trauchburg sold half of the bailiff over the church in Obererkheim to her niece Agnes von Hohenthann. A good in Dankelsried counted as a pledge. The Mindelheim Heiliggeistspital became the owner of the hamlet and castle stable of Dankelsried on November 16, 1433 through the donation of Ulrich Neger. With this donation, the Lords of Teck, who had owned the Mindelheim estate since 1365, became the landlords of Dankelsried, because the Heiliggeistspital only had the rights of use. With the death of Ludwig von Teck in 1439, the place came together with the rest of the Mindelheim dominion to the siblings Albrecht, Ber and Barbara von Rechberg. The Memmingen patrician became the owner of Dankelsried on November 12, 1465, as the brothers Ber and Jörg von Rechberg sold the hamlets of Dankelsried and Arlesried with all their goods, rights and serfs with the consent of the hospital nurses Ulrich Rempboldt and Clas Spengler . The high and low jurisdiction also belonged to it. The Vöhlin family sold the place in 1520 to the city of Memmingen, which passed it on to the Unterhospital in 1547 . In the further course the rule of Mindelheim and the imperial city of Memmingen got into a dispute as to which of the two was allowed to exercise the high jurisdiction. The dispute ended with the decision to jointly exercise the High Jurisdiction in the future. From 1578 the Riedbach was considered to be the border of high jurisdiction between the rule of Mindelheim and the imperial city of Memmingen. For crimes committed in the eastern area, the high jurisdiction of the Mindelheim rule was responsible, in the western area the city of Memmingen was responsible.

The village of Dankelsried, which still consisted of four courtyards in 1465 and 1520, was completely destroyed in the Thirty Years' War . It was not until 1660 that Huith received the right from the lower hospital to rebuild two courtyards. The healing spring north of the place was already in use at that time. The topping-out ceremony for the Dankelsried bathhouse , which consisted of 36 bath rooms, was celebrated on September 10, 1735 . 55 water pipes were fed via wooden drawbars . Just one year later, the bath was heavily frequented and developed into one of the most famous therapeutic baths in a wide area. The Countess Königsegg-Rothenfels was welcomed for a longer stay on June 15, 1742. Also the keeper of the Bavarian rule of Mindelheim Franz Anton von Zinth with his wife, the Memmingen mayor Friedrich von Stoll zu Wespach and the counts Fugger frequented the bath. Elector Max III. Joseph of Bavaria was received by the Memmingen City Council on October 9, 1767 in the bath. As a result of the war between 1796 and 1800, the property was looted and devastated and the bath began to decline. The Badwirt Johann Michael Karrer acquired the agriculture, the economy and the bathhouse in 1805. The bath had to be closed in 1840.
