In the 14th century, the knight Ulrich zu Ebersberg lived on the farms. According to the records in the Lindau city archive, he sold his farm along with several other goods to the Lindau citizen Heinrich Sürg in 1384. At the end of the 15th century, the estate belonged to the mayor Hans Dehler von Lindau. In the 16th century farmers called on the citizens Dietrich Hurlewangen, located in the great peasant revolt of captain and leader Seehaufens to elect.

  • Johann Andreas von Heider zu Gitzenweiler

  • Gottlieb von Heider zu Gitzenweiler

Valentin Heider (1605–1664) was patrician of the then imperial city of Lindau and envoy to the Peace of Westphalia. His eldest son was Johann Andreas Heider (January 6, 1639, † June 28, 1719), who acquired the Gitzenweiler Hof estate around 1700, after which he and his family called themselves “von Heider zu Gitzenweiler”. He was council syndic of the imperial city of Lindau and ducal Württemberg secret council . In 1708 he received an imperial confirmation letter of the knightly nobility of his family, together with an improvement in the coat of arms .

The son who survived him was Gottlieb von Heider zu Gitzenweiler (1679–1753), who sometimes called himself “Theophil” in the Latin translation of his nickname. He was also a lawyer, ducal council of Württemberg, senior mayor and president of the church and school council of his hometown Lindau. Although he survived his two unmarried brothers Daniel and Johann David, who died in 1700 and 1706 respectively, but since each of his three marriages had remained childless, he died in 1753 as the last Heider in Gitzenweiler. The original coat of arms of those from Heider zu Gitzenweiler can still be seen today on the Gitzenweiler manor house and in Lindau / Bodensee on the old town hall (top right on the dial).

Today there is a campsite with over 500 spaces on the site.
