Hossingen is a district of Meßstetten in the Zollernalb district in Baden-Württemberg . The place is northwest of Meßstetten.

history

Ceramic finds indicate a late Celtic settlement in the area of ​​Albrechtstrasse. Hossingen, which belonged to the Scherragrafschaft and then to the County of Hohenberg , was sold to Heinrich von Tierberg in 1347 . In 1370 the rule of Meßstetten came to the Wildentierberger line . Through the marriage of a Wildentierberger daughter Anna von der Wildentierberg with Conrad von Hölnstein , the rule of Meßstetten came to this. In 1418 Konrad von Hölstein sold Tieringen, Meßstetten and Hossingen, but kept his house and farm in Tieringen.

Under Württemberg, the village was administered by the Office Balingen . According to the draft list from 1521, the Hossing militiamen is responsible for securing Hossingen Castle to Unterdigisheim. The soldiers from Hossingen, Eppler and Kummer, circumvented their duty as citizens of Hossingen and instead equip their servants Baisch and Hauser with weapons and horses. Hossinger farmers were involved in the peasant war .

From 1806 Hossingen , which was subordinate to the Oberamt Balingen , belonged to the newly established Kingdom of Württemberg and from 1919 to the people's state of the same name .

In 1907, lists of names of long-established families from the church books of 1583 were published in the parish letter Heimatklänge. In Hossingen, long-established families are already mentioned in the church records in 1525, some of them even earlier: Eppler, Göhring 1600, Kiesinger 1604, Roth 1650, Bodmer Kanton Zurich 1654, Scherle 1760, Merz 1784, Narr 1807, Mundle 1825, Strölin 1825.

Hossingen came to the Balingen district in 1934 and to the Balingen district in 1938 .

On September 1, 1971, Hossingen was incorporated into Meßstetten.

The chapels and cemeteries

The castle chapel, like the Hossing St. Nicholas Chapel, first mentioned in 1404, belonged to the Ebingen Martinskirche until the Reformation . The cemetery for Hossingen was located there for a long time. All residents, men and women, young and old, have belonged to Hossingen from time immemorial, dead and alive in the parish of Ebingen. But they are now being provided in 1564 by a pastor in Meßstetten. According to Alb guide Helmut Meng Hossingen, the pallbearers circled and probably chose the Siebenkreuzlesweg ( 48 ° 12 ′ 13.9 ″  N , 9 ° 1 ′ 12.52 ″  E ), which has been preserved in its original state . Since a Roman settlement was discovered at the Ebinger Kreuz, a Roman origin of the channels can no longer be ruled out. Albguide Helmut Meng: a suspected from around Wüst believers called reformers destroyed Stationenweg on the path of the dead of the parish communities Heinstetten and Hossingen for Ebinger cemetery. Station routes with seven stations are quite common. A branch leads in a curve to a sand pit in the direction of Meßstetten. In this branch further excavations were carried out in 2016. A double track with a gauge of 1.05 meters was found. The local group Ebingen of the Swabian Alb Association is currently (2015) conducting scientific research.

Old grave fields were found in Hossingen:

  • Graves Bohl TK 25 7819, r. 3494230, h. 5339200. The site is 75 m northwest of the church on the western edge of the town center. According to a report and map from 1891, "very old skeletons ... but so far no inlay" were uncovered there at an unknown point in time. Courtyard from the late 7th century.
  • Graves Ob der Gasse TK 25 7819, r. 3494250, h. 5339410. The site is about 200 m north of the old town center on a southwest slope.

In 1957 graves from the Merovingian era were uncovered. Other graves are said to have remained untouched in the ground at the time. Due to the topographical reference to the old town center, these graves are most likely to be the Merovingian burial ground. In 1275 Heinrich von Tieringen was a pastor. In 1360 the Tierbergers donated a year in the Church of St. Lamprecht in Meßstetten, in whose crypt several Tierbergers are buried. One of the controversial religious documents, a letter of indulgence from Avignon, has been preserved from the year 1337 : According to Bishop Paulus Fluginens, those who take part in the altar patronage in the Wolfgang Chapel in the neighboring Altentierberg Castle should be granted a 40-day indulgence of sins. Lichtmess In 1535 the Reformation was introduced in Württemberg. The pastor responsible for Hossingen, Magister Johann Tierberger, initially refused to give up his parish, which his half-brother Hans Konrad von Tierberg, the patronage holder of the Ebingen Martinskirche, had given him. Hans Tierberger was an illegitimate son of Melchior von Tierberg. Hans Tierberger began to study in Freiburg in 1494 and then moved to Tübingen, where he obtained his master's degree in 1500. Since the Tierbergers clung to the old faith, Duke Ulrich no longer wanted to tolerate the pastor. In 1554 an exchange took place: the dukes became patron saints, but ceded the patronage of the Frohnstetter church.

language

A local Swabian dialect of Upper German is spoken in Hossingen . The rare on the rock next to the heads Hochalbpfad growing Pasque are called in the local dialect Hosenglocka, primroses Baddenga, hemp Sohmboringer rice and Hanuf and Wundklee Katzendapen.

economy

In the 20th century, Hossingen was dominated by the textile industry. Due to the structural change in the industry, a large number of jobs in this area have been lost.

Despite the high altitude, agriculture in Hossingen had its own tree nursery and numerous tall fruit trees at the end of the 19th century.

Say

The ghost of the Gräbelesberg

On the Gräbelesberg people meet a ghost with its head under its arm.

The ghost at the Hossinger ladder

At the Hossinger Leiter on Lauterbach, a ghost goes with the people to the place. The man is said to have killed his wife in a saw many years ago.

Muisloch cave

A man nicknamed Mui lived in the Muisloch cave. Without meaning to, his wife betrayed him, who was watched by the hunters when she brought him a basket of food that evening. In the area, however, there is evidence that until 1835 goods were smuggled for merchants across the customs border guarded by hunters; The starting point and warehouse for nightly smuggling and theft are said to have been caves. Coffee smuggler Haux was hit by a bullet from the Meßstetter Landjäger in the Pfaffental on July 21, 1831 and died. For a long time coffee was the number one contraband because of the high taxes. No customs officer could dare to open a coffin with a cholera or smallpox in it. Countless menues of smuggled coffee passed through customs in this macabre way. There were tailors who specialized in clothing that could be used to transport customs goods without great risk. Outwardly it appeared to be a hunchback or limp with clubfoot. But already around the next corner the hump or the obstruction turned out to be a cleverly camouflaged hiding place. In the Steige to Ebingen there was an Austrian customs post in the Hohenberger Forest that had to be bypassed. Bibles as well as hymn books and prayer books were smuggled into the most remote areas via narrow paths. In 1698 just under a ton of steel ingots were smuggled. In 1750 the donkey miller bought 130 bushels of spelled from Messstetten and Hossingen from the Winterlinger Bannmühle and had it smuggled across the border into Switzerland. Since 1000 bushels were also bought and smuggled from Hechingen, there was a shortage of grain.

Shoemaker

A long time ago a shoemaker from Hossingen was charged by the rulership court. His execution seemed inevitable. They agreed on a divine judgment in the form of a unilateral ordal. The accused shoemaker had to make a pair of shoes on the shoemaker's rock at a dizzying height above the abyss. He was not allowed to lose any of the counted material. The impeccably made shoes and the fact that he did not fall was seen in court at the time as evidence of his innocence. While the name Schuhmacherfels is entered on the official maps next to a rock needle near the Muisloch cave, according to oral tradition, the ordal is said to have taken place on the right side of the valley near the Hossinger ladder.

The Schimmelreiter's secret love affairs

Such a white horse should also be visible in Hossingen on stormy autumn nights

An old legend tells of the Schimmelreiter who secretly meets with his lover at the Weichenwang . Sometimes on stormy autumn nights at the old Burtel Castle near Hossingen, of which there are still a few remains, a white horse rider riding across the Weichenwang (Heiligenwang) should become visible. Today there is a Bundeswehr radar system on the Weichenwang in Meßstetten. The site is no longer accessible. The lovers are a befitting relationship between a noble knight and the daughter of the Hossing lord of the castle. Their places of residence are said to be the castles of Hossingen and Tierberg. In 1898, Emil Schweizer incorporated the well-known version of this legend into his article from the Balingen Mountains.

City of Wangen

One knows fabulous memories from places gone. A town of Wangen had disappeared between Hossingen and Meßstetten. The place Neu-Wangenhausen (Nüwenghausen) named in 1477 could not be assigned to any other place in the Oberamt. During the construction of a Kandel (moat), Pastor Oetinger from Messstetter found a bronze kettle and shards in the excavation. Amid the scornful laughter of the construction workers, he secured the finds and placed them in expert hands for analysis. The area was repeatedly hit by robbery excavations around 1850 . Pastor Alfred Ludwig Oetinger (from 1856 to 1868 pastor in Meßstetten and Hossingen) had extensive excavations carried out initially on his own account and later on account of the State Collection of Patriotic Antiquities. The chance find was supplemented by systematic re-excavations. The extensive finds of grave goods indicate an early settlement in the area of ​​Wangen below the Weichenwangs. In 1869 it was technically not yet possible to assign the finds to the exact time they were found, which is why the settlements belonging to the graves were assumed to be very large at that time. At that time, a grave with artistically worked wooden parts was assigned to the upper class of a Celtic city that had been destroyed after a short use, according to the legend. In 2019 Christoph Morrissey reports in the Heimatbuch: The settlement belonging to the graves near Hossingen (Gewann Wangen) is still unknown. Today the most important grave finds of the Hallstatt period in Wangen are described as follows: For several generations, socially high-ranking people seem to have been buried here. The graves of the common people can be assumed to be in simple grave pits.

The village is on the K 7143

Public transport

Local public transport is guaranteed by the Neckar-Alb-Danube Transport Association (NALDO) with shuttle buses to the Zollernalbbahn.

Hiking and biking trails

Hossingen has an extensive network of hiking trails created by the Swabian Alb Association . The Swabian Alb North Edge Path as well as circular hiking trails and cycle paths are signposted. The premium hiking trail Hossinger Hochalb starts in the village. As early as 1896, seven-day hikes combined with train journeys were advertised. Today the traveling parking museum are ( 48 ° 11 '26.97 "  N , 8 ° 55' 21.17"  O ) Heimberg, Gräbelesberg ( 48 ° 12 '5.76 "  N , 8 ° 55' 2.44"  O ) , Oberbuch ( 48 ° 11 '27.34 "  N , 8 ° 56' 41.86"  O ) and Burg Hossingen ( 48 ° 11 '2.26 "  N , 8 ° 55' 12.84"  O ) with the Car hit.

Julius Wais describes the view from the Gräbelesberg in 1901 as follows: "The view of the surroundings has something high mountain-like." "Alpine" hiking trails lead to the Muislochhöhe ( 48 ° 11 ′ 52.49 ″  N , 8 ° 56 ′ 8.23 ​​″  O ), viewpoint Schuhmacher rock ( 48 ° 11 '46.7 "  N , 8 ° 55' 54.23"  O ), Muisloch and right of the conductor for Hossinger Lauterbach Brunen ( 48 ° 11 '41.87 "  N , 8 ° 55 ′ 43.43 ″  O ). This is the unsecured medieval path of the Hossinger Ladder before the steel bridges were built. From 1940, the privately quartered Enziandivision used the shooting range in the military training area. Since the terrain is too flat for mountain troops, narrow paths to the eaves in Hossingen were built in 1940/41 to get the pack animals used to the height. A 1.7 kilometer long train of pack animals was on the move every day with loaded guns. Starting from these paths, hiking trails were signposted and advertised. Well known is the Hossinger ladder , a historical footpath from Hossingen to Lautlingen train station. The shortest connection from Oberdigisheim and Hossingen to the Zollernalbbahn was previously used by numerous commuters on a daily basis. Today the Hossinger Ladder is a hiking trail with a refuge and barbecue area.

Nicknames

On May 21, 1901, apprentice Keppler from Meßstetten wrote about the neighboring town: "The Hossingers are Schmalzköpf, the Oberdigisheimers are called Maufanger (Mondf.) And Zoddler?" Andreas Schmauder researched Meßstetten in the high and late Middle Ages and reports on Hossingen: The parish Ebingen was tithe, which also received the small tithe, but for this received 18 measure of lard since the end of the Middle Ages.
