history

Hattenhof was first mentioned in a document in 1345. Originally, the place extended along the Weimersheimer Bach in north-south direction. It was dominated by agriculture until in the 1950s / 60s due to the nearby Weißenburg settlement activity began. As a result of a new development area that was created in the 1970s, Hattenhof now has more inhabitants than the former main town of Weimersheim. Before the municipality reform , Hattenhof belonged to the municipality of Weimersheim and came together with this municipality on July 1, 1972 to Weißenburg. Ecclesiastically, the place still belongs to Weimersheim.
