Location of Jebenhausen in Göppingen

Jebenhausen ( 335  m above sea level ) has been a southern suburb and district of Göppingen since 1939 . A white and blue jug on a blue and white background is shown as a coat of arms .

geography

The Pfuhlbach , a stream flowing towards the Fils, flows through Jebenhausen . This in turn is fed by the Inkbach (right) and the Heimbach (left). To the west of the town center is the Baronenwald , on the eastern edge of which there is the Jebenhausen cemetery and the TV sports field. To the east is the Eichert forest, which belongs to the core town of Göppingen and from which the striking 52 m high concrete water tower protrudes, at the foot of which there is a wildlife enclosure . It borders the city of Göppingen in the northeast, the Göppingen district Faurndau in the northwest , the Uhingen district Sparwiesen in the west, the Göppinger district Bezgenriet in the south and the village Heiningen in the southeast .

history

The place is first mentioned in writing as Iebenhausen in a document issued in 1206 by the Premonstratensian monastery of Adelberg , which was founded by the Hohenstaufen dynasty . From 1467 the barons von Liebenstein were the sole local lords of this imperial village . Instead of an older castle, Philipp Albrecht von Liebenstein had a new castle built in the valley floodplain in 1686. The village church was built in the late Gothic style as early as 1506/1507 . When the local rule changed to the Protestant faith in 1559, the Reformation was introduced by Jakob Andreä . Jebenhausen was well known for the good reputation of its Sauerbrunnen baths until the 18th century . Only when the sour water source was buried ended the spa operations. The town's natural history museum has been located in the former spa inn, built in 1610, since 1970. In 1777 a Jewish settlement was founded in Jebenhausen . In 1806, when the Kingdom of Württemberg was founded , the von Liebenstein family lost their status. Jebenhausen was now a Württemberg village. In 1839 there were 615 Christian 538 Jewish residents in Jebenhausen. The Jewish community "melted", however, through emigration to America and (since 1848) emigration to Göppingen and other cities in Württemberg, apart from a small remainder. The synagogue was closed in 1899 and demolished in 1905. On April 1, 1939, Jebenhausen was incorporated into the district town of Göppingen. The industrialization made a workers' village Jebenhausen. In 2006 Jebenhausen celebrated the 800th local anniversary.

traffic

Coming from Faurndau (north) (as district road  1410), the Staufer road leads through Jebenhausen, which is called Boller Straße in Jebenhausen and continues in the direction of Bezgenriet (south) then becomes state road 1214. A bypass is being planned.

The next train stations are in Göppingen and Faurndau, both on the Filstalbahn . The bus lines 20 and 21 of the Göppingen bus service connect Jebenhausen with the Göppingen train station .

Attractions

Jebenhausen, view of the old church, 1979
Liebenstein Castle, 2015
  • In the southwestern part of Jebenhausen is the castle of the Barons von Liebenstein , which is still inhabited by their descendants today.
  • Not far from it on Boller Straße just before the end of the village in the direction of Bezgenriet is the former bath house and the former bath hostel adjacent to it . Today it houses the City Natural History Museum with many fossils and excavations from the surrounding area and the Sauerbrunnen, which is only free for Jebenhausers .
  • Following the main street on the left is the Jewish Museum , which was the old Protestant church until 1966 and opened in 1992. The three south-facing tracery windows and the tower-shaped sacrament house date from the construction period in the late Gothic period (completed in 1506 as the Church of St. Philip and St. James). Epitaphs and tombs of the local rule, the pulpit and a three-sided gallery still characterize the space in the modern exhibition concept.
  • Further on to the right is the newly built village square with the village coat of arms, the historic Waaghäusle and the seasonal maypole. The Blumhardt Elementary School borders directly on this village square .
  • In the newer district halfway up the slope is the newly restored Wasenhalle , which is used as a multi-purpose hall for parties, celebrations, animal shows, music and theater performances.
  • In the north on the outskirts of Jebenhausen there is the Waldeck open-air swimming pool with the adjacent nature reserve and wild garlic plantation , the Waldecksee , which is under nature protection, and the Waldeckhof .
  • To the south of the outdoor swimming pool, the building of the former Waldeck School (secondary and works school, which was closed in 2010) is adjacent to which the Jewish cemetery is located. The two churches are right in the center of the village:
  • Brother Klaus Church (Catholic) and
  • Jakob-Andreae-Kirche of the Protestant parish of Jebenhausen in the church district of Göppingen . It was planned by the architect Heinz Rall and inaugurated in 1966. Two Jebenhausen artists contributed to the design: Sigrid Flassbeck of Liebenstein created the concrete glazing Dallglas in Taufnische and Manfred Spang the wall relief (catch of Peter) and the relief panels on the gallery balustrade (history of the God-man relationship). There are community rooms on the slope below the church.
  • On the western outskirts, in the direction of Faurndau , is the Villa Wieseneck kindergarten .
  • Despite the small size, there are two sports clubs in Jebenhausen, each with their own sports fields: at the Baronenwald the gymnastics club Jebenhausen and in the north that of the Sportfreunde Jebenhausen .
