history

Etzlensendung probably originated as a Franconian forest clearing settlement. During the clearing , the places in the Schmidbachtal were probably created successively up the valley, starting with the one in the 7th / 8th. Schmidhausen mentioned in the 19th century. The clearing colonization was probably already completed before the turn of the millennium, which means that the hamlets in the Schmidbachtal are older than today's main town of Beilstein, which only became a castle hamlet in the 12th / 13th century. Century developed. In the case of Etzlenswend, the part of the name “-wend” could indicate a settlement by resettled Wends in the 8th century, similar to that in Winnenden . The origin of the name is unclear, however, since the place was mentioned in 1245 as "Ezelinswiler". Ezelin could be a person's name.

The "Kelterle" with a bell tower, which was renewed in 1981, points out the importance of viticulture in Etzlensendung.

Over the centuries Etzlensendung was a purely agricultural street village , in which cattle breeding predominated at first. Old grazing rights existed in the Lauffener Stadtwald, in the stately Württemberg forest "Krapfenhau" and in the Graflich Löwenstein forests "Rehsteig" and "Buchberg". Viticulture also began to play an important role in the 18th and 19th centuries , although fruit growing also reached a high point at first.

The place was divided into four fiefdoms : two Württemberg, one Löwenstein and one Weiler, which were divided between three landlords. The jurisdiction was already in 1623 in Beilstein. In 1771 and 1805 the Löwenstein and Weiler shares in Etzlensendung were transferred to Württemberg , with the result that the hamlet became part of Beilstein.

A school in Etzlensendung, which children from Farnersberg also attended, existed with interruptions from 1717 to 1866 at the latest. Classes were held in the tavern and alternately in the houses of the citizens, later there was a shared school and shepherd's house. Sometimes the teaching position was not filled, so that there were also years without lessons.

When the new administrative structure in the Kingdom of Württemberg was implemented , Etzlensendung was assigned to the Marbach Oberamt together with Beilstein in 1810 .

After 1867 a separate cemetery was set up in Etzlensendung. In 1924 it was connected to the electricity network, and in 1929 a water pipe followed.

In the 1970s, the southern slope of the "community fields" was prepared exclusively for viticulture by the vineyard consolidation. A weekend settlement for around 30 weekend houses has been designated on the northern slope .
