history

Diepoldshofen was first mentioned in 1090 in a deed of donation to Weingarten Monastery . In the 13th century it was owned by the Baindt , Isny and Rot monasteries . The manorial rule over Diepoldshofen came from the Counts of Veringen , with their vassal, the noble free Berthold von Trauchburg, to the County of Zeil. With Zeil, Diepoldshofen fell to Württemberg in 1810 .

Now the place initially belonged to the Oberschultheißerei Zeil within the Oberamt Leutkirch . In 1820 the community of Diepoldshofen was formed, which until 1849 belonged to the princely Waldburg-Zeil office, then was again affiliated to the Leutkirch Oberamt. When it was dissolved in 1938, the community came to the district of Wangen .

On June 1, 1972 Diepoldshofen was incorporated into the city of Leutkirch.
