history

Knaudenheim monument in Huttenheim

Huttenheim goes back to the former village of Knaudenheim , which was completely inundated on July 24, 1758 at 9 o'clock by a broken Rhine dam. The Knaudenheim resident Hans Peter Siegel reported the flooding of the place in the afternoon in the Prince-Bishop's Speyer residence in Bruchsal . During the consultation that followed, it was decided to relocate the submerged village to the sand hump on the "Krummen Rain". The sovereign, Prince-Bishop von Hutten, confirmed this decision after an on-site inspection.

On September 2, 1758, 80 court racks of 18 ares each  , as well as 1 space each for church, town hall, schoolhouse and rectory, were raffled on the "Grävenhard" sand hump in the presence of Huttens. Hans Peter Siegel became the shop steward for the development of the village "Neu-Knaudenheim". The town plan resembled a large T. From east to west the Rheinstrasse (on the map “Traasen nach Neudorff” and “Traasen nach Alt-Knaudenheim”) and from south to north the Philippsburger Strasse (“Traasen nach dem neue Feld”) built. The total area of ​​the new village was 44  acres of 36 acres each, which, together with 3000 guilders, was a gift from the sovereign to the resettlers. The plans came from master builder Stahl and "Feldtmesser" Hoffmann from Bruchsal.

In 1760 Neu-Knaudenheim was renamed Huttenheim as a thank you to the sovereign, Franz Christoph von Hutten .

Hallstatt culture burial mound group

In the vicinity of the village there are three Celtic groups of burial mounds from the western Hallstatt culture . Group 1 consists of some surveys. The group to the south, consisting of a few hills, was called group 2 by the archaeologist Wagner (1877). Group 3 is to the east of it.

On January 1, 1973 Huttenheim came to Philippsburg.

traffic

Old station building Huttenheim

Huttenheim is connected to the national rail network by the Bruhrainbahn ( Bruchsal - Germersheim ). The plan is to extend the Hardtbahn from Karlsruhe via Hochstetten via Huttenheim to Philippsburg. Huttenheim is connected to long-distance road traffic by the B 35 ( Illingen –Germersheim).

Ortneckname

The Huttenheimers are popularly known as "deer" or "Hirschböck" due to the following circumstance, which is said to have taken place in Huttenheim: The Prince-Bishop of Speyer once held a large driven hunt. The forest was thick and the drivers from the neighboring towns could no longer pass through; only the men from Huttenheim are said to have succeeded in following the deer through the thicket. That is why the prince-bishop is said to have exclaimed: "Look, my Huttenheimers, they jump through the thicket like my deer."
