history

Early history

The urban area is conveniently located in terms of transport. A thoroughfare connecting Italy with the Netherlands passed through it as early as Roman times . Due to this favorable location, Ebersbach has been a permanent post station on the Dutch postal route from Brussels via Augsburg to Innsbruck and Trento since 1523 .

Ebersbach was first mentioned in 1170 in the Ursperger Chronicle . Since 1274 the village belonged to Württemberg . Before 1477 the place got market rights . From 1500 Ebersbach was part of the Swabian Empire . The old Württemberg town of Ebersbach has always been under the authority of Göppingen. Even with the implementation of the new administrative structure in the Kingdom of Württemberg , Ebersbach was now assigned to the Oberamt Göppingen .

19th and 20th centuries

The place was mainly characterized by handicrafts . Mainly linen weavers , blacksmiths and wagons were represented . One of Ebersbach's specialties was the Sandler, who mined sand in the Ebersbach quarries until the 1960s . Industrial companies began to develop in Ebersbach around the middle of the 19th century . Most of them worked in the textile sector.

In the course of the administrative reform during the Nazi era in Württemberg , Ebersbach came to the Göppingen district in 1938. In 1945 the place became part of the American zone of occupation and thus belonged to the newly founded state of Württemberg-Baden , which was incorporated into the current state of Baden-Württemberg in 1952.

In the literature after 1974 it is often claimed that a satellite camp of the Natzweiler-Struthof concentration camp was established in Ebersbach towards the end of the Second World War . It was probably first published by Julius Schätzle in Stations on Hell (Frankfurt am Main 1974, p. 64 and map at p. 80). Research by the Ebersbach / Fils city archive, however, shows a different picture: According to this, there was no concentration camp work detail here. The establishment of such a sub-camp cannot yet be proven by archives. Testimony of contemporary witnesses from 1945 to 1999, the origin and supervision of the many forced laborers employed in the industry during the Second World War, refute the assumption made by J. Schätzle from 1974.

On February 12, 1975, the community was elevated to a city.

coat of arms

The blazon of the partially speaking coat of arms reads: "In red on a green background a standing golden boar with silver tusks."

As early as 1489, the boar was documented as a local seal. The depiction of the heraldic animal changed over time: In a colored drawing from 1535 the boar was shown standing, just as it can be seen in today's local coat of arms since 1937. In some older seals and on a keystone of the church, the boar is depicted walking or jumping. In the past, double hooks, which have been used since 1686, were carved into the landmarks, probably for the sake of simplicity. The red-green local flag has been detectable since the 1920s and, with this color combination, violates the color rules of heraldry .
