Early history
Various finds from different epochs in Gemmrigheim indicate an ancient settlement of the place. Gemmrigheim was in a document of the monastery Reichenbach of 22 September 1085 was first mentioned and belonged to Gaugrafschaft the counts of Calw-Vaihingen , of which the place in 1140 to the Count Palatine of Tübingen passed and of these about the Hofwart of Kirchheim until the 14th Century to the county of Württemberg , where he belonged to the office Lauffen . A first Württemberg mayor is documented in 1410.
Viticulture in the community has been guaranteed since the 12th century and shaped Gemmrigheim significantly. The place was affected several times in the Thirty Years War and the subsequent military conflicts.
19th and 20th centuries
In the course of the new administrative structure after the establishment of the Kingdom of Württemberg , Gemmrigheim came to the Oberamt Besigheim in 1808 . Industrialization began in Gemmrigheim in 1865, when an old Neckar mill was first expanded into a wood pulp factory and then a paper factory. As a result of the district reform during the Nazi era in Württemberg , Gemmrigheim was assigned to the Ludwigsburg district in 1938 when the Oberamt Besigheim was dissolved .
During the Second World War , the first Polish prisoners of war came to Gemmrigheim in 1939. Although enemy troops bombed the paper mill in an air raid, the village remained relatively unscathed. On April 9, 1945, the Wehrmacht blew up the Neckar Bridge between Gemmrigheim and Kirchheim to prevent the Allies from advancing. American soldiers occupied the place on the 20th of the same month and the war ended in Gemmrigheim. The place became part of the American zone of occupation and thus belonged to the newly founded state of Württemberg-Baden until 1952 . By the end of 1946, Gemmrigheim took in more than 500 displaced persons, mostly from the Sudetenland.
On November 11, 1950, the new Neckar Bridge was inaugurated. In the 1950s and 1960s the new development areas Hinterhof , Gassenweingärten , Unter der Hessigheimer Steige , Waldstrasse and Langer Forst as well as the residential areas on the Plappstein and Gräble were built . The redevelopment of the town center began in the 1980s, when the town thoroughfare was completed and the bypass road was inaugurated in 1981. In 1997 the Neusatz / Scheidwegle building area was developed.
