history

The first documented evidence of the spot comes from the year 860, when Veldhusen was mentioned in a document from the St. Gallen monastery . Another documentary mention dates back to 1245. Count Burkhard von Hohenberg gives his feudal permission to sell half of the tithe in Dusslingen , which Gero von Lichtenstein sells to the Bebenhausen monastery for 75 pounds of Heller, but in return refutes and refutes his court at Velthusin received a fief.

The place should have been laid out in the earlier expansion period and belonged to the Gammertingen rule early on . When the last Count of Veringen handed over the area in 1408 to his sister son Heinrich von Rechberg, Feldhausen was also mentioned. When the Speth rule in Hettingen split off in 1599, Feldhausen (like Harthausen) stayed with Gammertingen.

In the days after December 5, 1805, the people of Württemberg took possession of the communities of Neufra , Feldhausen and Harthausen, which belonged to the Speth rule of Gammertingen . State sovereignty came to Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen in 1806 . This temporary occupation of Württemberg was lifted by the contractual Rhine federation act of 1806 and the sovereignty of Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen was granted Feldhausen was in 1827 part of the Hohenzollern Oberamt Gammertingen ; In 1850 it came to Prussia as part of the Hohenzoller Lands .

Feldhausen was incorporated into Gammertingen on January 1, 1975.

Culture and sights

  • The baroque parish church of St. Nikolaus was built by order of the Speth rule between 1737 and 1739. It has a simple rectangular long building and houses a late Gothic figure of the Virgin Mary, which was created around 1490 and is attributed to the famous sculptor Gregor Erhart (around 1500) from Ulm. The 2003 heat wave caused the soil to dry out considerably, triggering movements that initially resulted in small, but steadily growing cracks in the ceiling, on the walls and also on the floor. The damage caused by settlement only came to an end in 2010.
  • The memorial grotto is the Mother of God ordained. The place of prayer in a clearing on the edge of the forest in Feldhausen is a grotto made of unhewn limestone . In 1964, a plaster statue based on the statue of Mary in Lourdes was erected in it to thank a seriously ill person for the recovery. This valuable figure was probably destroyed by arson on November 14, 2010.
  • Feldhausen has a former cave in the center.
  • Gottesackerkapelle
