Hagnau am Bodensee is a municipality in the Lake Constance district in Baden-Württemberg . At the beginning of the 19th century it was still called Hangnau .
geography
Hagnau is located on the north shore of Lake Constance between Meersburg and Friedrichshafen on a steep hillside.
Above the village is the Wilhelmshöhe hill (473 m), a popular vantage point.
history
Already during the late Bronze Age 1050 BC. The lakeside settlement of Hagnau-Burg was inhabited. In 1986 the oldest wooden flute in Europe was found here . In the Überlinger Museum there is a Roman oil lamp that was found in Hagnau.
At the end of the 6th / beginning of the 7th century, Hagnau belonged to the territory of the Alemanni Duke Gunzo . In 1010 the Guelphs donated the area to the Benedictine Abbey of Altdorf . Hagnau was first mentioned on January 24, 1152 in a document by Pope Eugen III. mentioned. In 1436 the Weingartner abbot sold Hagnau to Überlingen. The plague called for in 1514 in almost every home in Hagnau dead. In 1650 Hagnau was sold by Überlingen to the Einsiedeln monastery . Einsiedeln sold Hagnau in 1693 to the Benedictine abbey Weingarten . Then it was secularized in 1803, and Hagnau became Baden.
In 1817 there was a great famine in Hagnau. The flooding of Lake Constance flooded the cellars and the streets of the lower village of Hagnau at foot high. In 1830 there was a sea frost and the people of Hagnau carried the bust of St. John of Münsterlingen to Hagnau in the ice procession . In 1880 there was another Seegfrörne without an ice procession (it did not appear again until 1963, and the bust of Johannes was brought back to Münsterlingen). In 1882 the level of Lake Constance sank so much that the rock "Die Burg" lay dry. In the autumn of 1891 the floods of Lake Constance flooded the lower village again.
A war memorial with the names of the fallen and missing on the south side of the parish church commemorates the time of the First and Second World War.
On January 1, 1973 the district of Überlingen was dissolved, whereby Hagnau came to the newly formed Lake Constance district.

coat of arms
Blazon : In a split shield in front a golden crook in blue, behind in silver a blue grape with two green leaves.
The crosier is a reference to the long spiritual rule over the place. The branch with the blue grape represents the viniculture in Hagnau, which is still intensively practiced today. The coat of arms was awarded to the community by the Baden-Württemberg Minister of the Interior on July 2, 1963.
Community partnerships
Hagnau maintains partnership relationships with the three Swiss municipalities across from the southern shore of Lake Constance :
- Altnau : The bond between Altnau and Hagnau was always evident when the lake was frozen over and could be crossed. The exploration of the passability of Lake Constance in preparation for the ice procession led the Hagnau residents to Altnau in 1880 (“warmly received by the Altnauers”) and in 1963 in the first group to Güttingen (“when the innkeepers 'Zum Schiff' in Güttingen took us to their warm room ") And in the second group to Altnau (" then turned south directly towards the small port of Altnau "). On February 6, 1830, 100 Hagnau school children brought a framed picture of Christ across the frozen lake to the school in Altnau. This picture was brought back to the Hagnau School on February 9, 1963 by 60 pupils from the Altnau secondary school across the frozen lake. On Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays there is a direct boat connection (lake line) from Altnau across Lake Constance to Hagnau and Immenstaad.
- Münsterlingen : The partnership is particularly strengthened by the custom of picking up the bust of St. John over the frozen lake from the partner community to one's own community during the so-called Seegfrörne . The custom of the ice procession has existed since the Seegfrörne of 1573. An inscription on the boulder from 1830 in the green area at the ship landing stage in Hagnau reminds of the crossing of the lake by Hagnau citizens in February 1880 (without the ice procession) on the occasion of the Seegfrörne at the Osthafen below the town hall is a reminder of the Seegfrörne and ice procession of 1963. Since then, the bust of John has been in the parish church of the former Münsterlingen monastery again , and the base in the Hagnau church is empty.

Economy and Infrastructure
Viticulture
Hagnau's history is inextricably linked with viticulture. The place is known for its extensive wine-growing areas. The winegrowers' cooperative , the Winzerverein Hagnau eG, is the oldest in Baden and the largest on Lake Constance, both in terms of members (97 winegrowers from 50 wine-growing families) and hectares of vineyards (150 hectares of cultivation area). In the meantime, many winegrowers have created a second mainstay with tourism. The winegrowers' association was founded in 1881 by the folk writer and pastor of the community, Heinrich Hansjakob , in times of economic hardship. Viticulture is operated in a "controlled, environmentally friendly" manner and with reduced yield.
Fruit growing
Lake Constance fruit (apples and plums) is grown in the higher hinterland. There are 40 small burners in the municipality of Hagnau (as of December 2011).
fishing
Fresh or smoked Lake Constance fish , such as whitefish , can be bought at several points along Seestraße and further down the road . The restaurants offer freshly caught whitefish from Lake Constance. There are a total of five fishermen in the village with the typical open, shallow fishing boats.
tourism
An intact village structure, the direct location on Lake Constance and walking paths on Lake Constance to Immenstaad and Meersburg make Hagnau a popular holiday destination.

The village is on federal highway 31 , about 13 kilometers west of Friedrichshafen. It can be reached every half hour during the day by train bus on the Friedrichshafen – Immenstaad – Hagnau – Meersburg– Überlingen route in the Bodensee-Oberschwaben transport association ( bodo ).

Buildings
The parish church of St. Johann Baptist includes the most important styles of the last eight centuries: the tower is Romanesque, the choir Gothic, the nave Baroque - and the original painting of the ceiling and the choir arch is from 1980. In the churchyard is a chapel with a statue of the St. Wendelin and one with a replica of the Lourdes grotto.
There are still six former monastery courtyards from the time of the monastery .
- One of these is the Salmannsweiler Hof, which was rebuilt in 1568, belonging to the Salem Imperial Abbey ( Hagenau Castle ).
- The former cloister courtyard (Hofmeisterei) of the Benedictine monastery Weingarten from 1714 was a farm for the land in Hagnau and the surrounding area. It comprised 30 rooms, attic storage and two large cellars. The builder was Abbot and Landlord Sebastian Hiller (1697–1730). The construction manager was Frater Andreas Schreck from Vorarlberg. The monastery courtyard is built in Baroque style on a hillside and parallel to the lake shore. In 1806, after secularization, it passed into Baden state ownership and was sold to the municipality of Hagnau in 1846. The building housed the town hall. The building cellar has been used by the Hagnau winegrowers' association since 1882 . Today the building houses the citizens' and guest house and the Hagnauer Museum.
- The Irseer farm was built in the 18th century and served as the official home of the Benedictines - Monastery Irsee in Kaufbeuren . Today it is used as a residential building.
- The former tithe house of the Diocese of Constance was built in 1680 under Bishop Franz Johann Prassberg.
- The former office building of Einsiedeln Monastery (1650–1693) and the Reichsabbey Weingarten (1693–1803), today the Gasthaus zum Löwen.
- The Schussenrieder Hof from 1742, which was used by the Premonstratensian imperial abbey in Schussenried .

In the levels below, residents, traditional costumes, buildings and squares, fishermen and the ice procession at the Seegfrörne are shown.
