history

Garnberg, formerly called Gagernberg or Gairenberg, was first mentioned in a deed of donation in 1090: Mechtild von Stein donated the estate to the Komburg monastery.

From 1508 to 1709 at the latest, the settlement was in the hands of Stats . Around 1688, Wolfgang Christoph von Stetten built the castle. For a long time Garnberg consisted only of the castle estate, a few farms, mercenary houses and a brickworks. It was not until the late 18th century that Georg Ferdinand Forstner von Dambenoy enlarged the place by clearing and promoting new settlements. Forstner was a professor of agriculture in Tübingen. Its aim was to increase agricultural yields.

There was a chapel near the castle. This was later converted into a barn. Your bell is now on the roof of the old Garnberg school. In 1806 Garnberg, which was in the Franconian knight circle , came under Württemberg state sovereignty and was incorporated into Künzelsau in 1912.

Garnberg was the location of a brickworks until 1985, and the Garnberger brickworks was mentioned in a document as early as 1676. The old clay pit is now a geotope .
