Community structure

history
The history of Erlenmoos is closely related to the history of the monastery and the parish of Ochsenhausen: In 1128 knight Hatto von Grönenbach waived all claims he had on goods in Erlenmoos in favor of the Benedictine monastery in Ochsenhausen . The record of this is the first written mention of Erlenmoos. The Ochsenhausen monastery gained a foothold in Erlenmoos at an early stage and was instrumental in steering its fortunes for almost 700 years.
