history
The name Hausen comes from the Old High German word Husin , which comes from the Franconian settlement period around the 7th century.
Traces of settlement from Roman times were found in the corridors “Hirschten” and “Frauenberg” at the height of the southern edge of the village. According to Angela Vielstich, a Roman estate ( villa rustica ) once stood here, from which remains of walls, a floor covering made of white Jura tiles and a millstone could be found. A castle is said to have stood at the Signalstein Frauenberg, from where there was still a panoramic view in the 1930s. In 1929 there was some rubble to be seen here, but nothing definitely Roman. The previously very important sandstone quarries south of the place are said to have been exploited by the Romans.
Hausen am Andelspach is mentioned for the first time in 1220 in a report from the County of Pfullendorf to Emperor Friedrich II about the sale of royal estates in Linzgau .
In 1399 the county of Sigmaringen came to the Counts of Werdenberg as pledge . During this change of ownership, Hausen am Andelsbach is mentioned among others.

Culture and sights
Buildings
- Hausen am Andelsbach is characterized by the beautiful church of St. Ottilien (also St. Odilienkirche) with its mighty bell tower from the 15th century with stepped gable - located on the foothills of the Freudeberg. The church was built around 1400, demolished again in 1853 and rebuilt in its current form from 1853 to 1855. After the church was renovated several times, another renovation was planned for 2000. The church tower, which can be seen from afar, has existed in its shape since 1400 and is therefore the oldest building in Hausen. In 1763 Johann Georg Aichgasser built an organ for the church. However, this is no longer preserved. It is equipped with a magnificent Renaissance crucifix and a Gothic pieta from 1420.
- The first schoolhouse was built in 1811 and expanded in 1840. In 1885 a new school and town hall was built and the old one torn down.
