Geography and location

Aerial view of Feuerbach from the south-east

Feuerbach runs as a street village parallel to a slope and lies in the upper valley section of the Feuerbach . The place is surrounded by gently rising hills to the north and south. The forest to the south of the village rises to a height of about 535  m . This landscape is characteristic of the Markgräflerland , to which the place belongs.

The location of Feuerbach is determined by its proximity to the Blue / Black Forest on the one hand, and Basel and Alsace on the other.

Feuerbach's main access to traffic is the road following the course of the Feuerbach river from Riedlingen , which is located in the south and also belongs to Kandern . The place is also directly connected to Kandern to the southeast via a small side valley. Along the northern hill there is a connecting road to Niedereggenen , which already belongs to the neighboring municipality of Schliengen .

history

Spelling: Furbach 1317, villa Fúrbach 1335

In 1275 the church of Feuerbach was first mentioned in the Liber decimationis (Lib. Dec. FDA. I 210), a tithe book of the Diocese of Constance. The second mention is in 1295, when knight Otto von Staufen (Otto miles de Stôfen) sold the patronage of the church in Feuerbach with the goods located in "Villa dicta Fúrbach" to the Order of St. John in Freiburg. Presumably, a Johanniter house stood on the site of an old farmhouse called the "castle". The next record follows in 1315, from which it emerges that Bechtolt the Sermentzer gave the Johannites in Freiburg "the Kilchun and the Kilchunsatz in the village of ze Fúrbach and the hof da deir church in Horet". In the same year the patronage was exchanged for the St. Ulrich monastery. The exchange was carried out by Margrave von Hochberg, Brother Hermannus, as Comthur of the Johanniter Hospital in Freiburg. 20 years later, in 1335, the patronage went to Wilhelm von Ulm from Basel. Between 1360 and 1370 it is mentioned in a document as "Ecclesia Fúrbach in decanatu Núwenberg". Politically, the place belonged to Sausenberg. From 1470 the patronage of the church was owned by the Margraves Hachberg-Sausenberg .

In 1503 Feuerbach became Baden. Hans Hammerstein from Feuerbach led the Märkgrafler farmers in the Peasants' War in 1525. Feuerbach was also not spared from the Thirty Years' War. The schoolhouse and a schoolmaster were first mentioned around 1700. In 1846 a new church was built by Heinrich Hübsch . The old dilapidated church was demolished four years later. Kraus mentions that "in the past, objects, including stones from the church that was demolished in 1850 (the same was built after Sachs' Mitth. 1450) were often sold to enthusiasts and antiquarians."

The Baden Revolution was triggered by famine in 1848 , in which a teacher from Feuerbach, Vogel, actively participated. The supply of water pipes was realized from 1897 to 1899. In the years 1919 and 1920 there was electric light in Feuerbach for the first time. In the 1960s, a new road was built from Riedlingen to Feuerbach, which is now the main access road to the place.

On March 1, 1974, Feuerbach was incorporated into the city of Kandern.
