Hasle
Location of the municipality

Hasle is a municipality in the Entlebuch constituency in the canton of Lucerne in Switzerland .

geography

Hasle consists of the village of Hasle, the districts of Habschwanden and Heiligkreuz , as well as numerous hamlets, individual farms and alpine huts. The First lookout point with a restaurant is 300 meters above Heiligkreuz . A small ski lift operates there in winter.

The northern border of Hasle begins where the Entlen joins the Kleine Emme . From there it leads west to the Grosse Fontanne and in this upstream to the Dieplischwand enclave ( Entlebuch municipality ). From here, the border runs in a south-easterly direction to the Zinggen Bridge, which leads over the Kleine Emme. In this part of the municipality Hasle on the left bank, on a north-westerly slope, are the district of Habschwanden ( 849  m above sea level ; 1.2 km northwest of the village) and the hamlet of Enetegg ( 822  m above sea level ; 2 km west of the village) .

Most of the community is, however, on the right bank of the Kleine Emme. The village of Hasle is located in the valley floor on the Lucerne - Bern road . This has now grown together with the hamlets of Öschtor (in the south-west), Gibel (in the south), Feld (in the north-west), Bühl (in the north) and Farbstutz (in the north-east). The Bibernbach flows through the village and joins the Kleine Emme from the right just west of the village. This Bibernbach forms the border to the community of Schüpfheim for several kilometers up to its source . Its course runs west of the Heiligkreuz district ( 1127  m above sea level ; 3.5 km south of the village). At Schwarzmatt , south of the source of the Bibernbach, the border turns to the east towards the Kleine Entlen. The First ( 1431  m above sea level ) lies between this and Heiligkreuz . From the Kleine Entlen the border turns south, always along the Enggellauenbach . From its source it turns in a south-easterly direction to Enggellenfluh ( 1902  m above sea level ), from there in a south-westerly direction over a ridge to Schafmatt ( 1979  m above sea level ) and from there on over Wasserfallenegg to Feuerstein ( 2040  m above sea level ). This is on the canton border with the canton of Obwalden . From the Feuerstein it leads along the Wissgubergrat to the source of the Wallerfallenbach , one of the source brooks of the Grosse Entlen . The Grosse Entlen forms the boundary to the Entlebuch community along its entire course up to the confluence with the Kleine Emme near the village of Entlebuch. The third most important body of water after the Kleine Emme and Grosser Entlen is the Kleine Entlen . This rises in the heart of the community and flows in a slightly north-easterly direction from the confluence with the Enggellauenenbach already mentioned through a valley that is boggy in places. At 818  m above sea level M. it joins the Grosse Entlen from the left, which from this point is simply called Entlen.

Apart from the ridge between the Kleine and the Grosse Entlen, the whole area is an upland moor. The peaks Ebnetenfluh ( 1833  m above sea level ), Schimberg ( 1815  m above sea level ) and Hengst ( 1809  m above sea level ) rise from here . The entire slope of the Schattsite (shadow side), the slope on the right-hand side of the Kleine Emme, has been cleared. There are large forest areas around Heiligkreuz and along the streams. In Romooser Hochwald east of Holy Cross springs from Gretenbach which opens after a few kilometers running north from the left in the Entlen.

Half of the entire municipal area (50.6%) is used for agriculture. Another 39.6% are forest and wood (partly in the swamp area) and only 2.9% are settlement areas.

Hasle borders on Doppleschwand (on the Grosse Fontanne), Entlebuch , Flühli , Romoos (also on the Grosse Fontanne) and Schüpfheim in the canton of Lucerne - and on the municipality of Sarnen in the canton of Obwalden.

The population grew rapidly for almost 200 years, from 1650 to 1837. Then it went back slightly to 1850. After a phase of stagnation until 1870, it sank through emigration until 1900 (1870–1900: −18.4%). Then there followed 20 years without large population movements. It then grew again from 1920 to 1970, with the exception of the 1950s (1920–1970: + 27.6%). In the 1970s, the number of residents fell for the last time (−6.4%). Since then it has grown continuously (1980–2004: +13.3%) and has reached new highs.

languages

The population uses a highly Alemannic dialect as their everyday language. The local dialect is very different from that of the city of Lucerne. At the last census in 2000, 96.41% said German, 1.88% Albanian and 0.47% Italian were the main languages.

Religions - denominations

The entire population used to be members of the Roman Catholic Church. This is no longer the case in Hasle either.

Today (as of 2000) there are 93.65% Roman Catholic, 3.17% Evangelical Reformed and 0.47% Orthodox Christians. There are also 1.06% Muslims and 1.00% non-denominational. The Muslims are Albanians by origin.

At the end of 2014, of the 1,778 inhabitants, 1,692 were Swiss and 86 (= 4.8%) were foreigners. The population consisted of 95.2% Swiss citizens. At the end of 2014, the foreign residents came from Germany (23.3%), Italy (8.1%), Spain (8.1%), Portugal (1.2%) and Serbia including Kosovo (1.2%). 15.1% came from the rest of Europe and 43.0% were of non-European origin.

history

The community Hasile first appeared in 1236 in a letter of protection from Pope Gregory IX. to Engelberg Abbey . The districts of Habschwanden ("Habeswanden") and Keglisberg ("Chegelsperch") are designated as goods of Engelberg Monastery. Hasle shared the fate of the entire Inner Office of Wolhusen, as the Entlebuch region was called under the rule of the Barons of Wolhusen. In 1385, the Entlebuch became a castle with the city of Lucerne . It finally came to Lucerne in 1405, when the previously ruling Habsburgs sold the entire area to the city for 300 gold guilders. In 1465 the parish of Hasle, which previously belonged to the parish of Menznau , became independent, which was confirmed by the Bishop of Constance. The place took an active part in the uprising as part of the great Swiss Peasants' War . On February 10, 1653, the Entlebuchers gathered at the pilgrimage site of Heiligkreuz and on February 26th, Hornung (February) they swore the Wohlhuser Bund with the federal letter of the X offices of the city of Lucerne. Hasle belonged to the Landvogtei Entlebuch until 1798, then to 1803 to the Helvetian district of Schüpfheim. Since then, it has been one of the communities in the Entlebuch office, which was then newly created .

There is also a dance of death cycle in the small town of Hasle in Entlebuch with eight larger-than-life pairs of figures. It was executed as a fresco in 1687 on the nave walls and in the chancel of the ossuary next to the parish church of St. Stephen. In this case, the donors are known because their names are given in the cartouches of the painted consoles. Above each couple are the two-line dialogues between death and its victim. The figures are: Pope, Emperor, landlord, scribe, miller, youth, farmer, alpine man.
