history
First mentioned as Hettanerloh 792 owned by Murbach Abbey , the history of the village is largely in the dark. It is believed that Hettenschlag was abandoned during the 15th century. It was not until 1800 that eight new farms were built in the same place. In 1801 the place name still had the spelling Hertenschlag .
In the middle of the 19th century, the small church of the Presentation of the Virgin Mary ( L'église de la Présentation de la Vierge ) was built.
From 1871 until the end of the First World War , Hettenschlag belonged to the German Empire as part of the realm of Alsace-Lorraine and was assigned to the Colmar district in the Upper Alsace district .
