history

Parish before the merger in 1998

To the east of the village was the (tribe?) Castle of the episcopal Constance ministerial dynasty of Tettikofen , which was documented from 1243 . In the Middle Ages , Dettighofen was probably associated with the Pfyn rulership, which Jakob Mötteli von Rappenstein acquired in 1486/88. He moved the manor to Pfyn and left the castle to decay. In 1707, Dettighofen came to the von Reding family of Landschreiber as part of the Burg rule, a high court subordinate to the federal bailiff . Ecclesiastically, Dettighofen shared the fate of the Pfyn parish .

For a long time the most important branch of business was agriculture with fruit growing. The progressive change to a residential community brought the industry an upswing, so that in 1990 more than half of the people in Dettighofen were employed in the second economic sector.
