history

The place Krenkingen is first mentioned as Chreinchingen in 1152. The ministerials , knights and barons of Krenkingen , 1202, Burch.miles et ministerialis domini Lutoldi de Kreinkingin first built the Altkrenkingen castle around the 11th century . The newer - built in the 13th century - and larger Krenkingen Castle , which is known as the Burgstall as early as 1361 (not to be confused with Neu-Krenkingen or Gut-Krenkingen Castle ) was about 100 m north of the Alt-Krenkingen ruins the same mountain shoulder, the Burghalde . The first Krenkinger was Adilhardus de Chreingingen , mentioned on All Saints' Day in Schaffhausen in 1102. The Krenkingers are considered to be the builders of Tiengen Castle . They owned large estates in Klettgau , the Gutenburg , the Weißenburg as well as Neukrenkingen Castle and Roggenbach Castle (there the Weißenburger Tower) and others. They provided abbots in the Rheinau monastery , Konstanz, Reichenau monastery and Strasbourg. The best-known representative of his family is the Abbot of Reichenau and Bishop of Constance, Diethelm von Krenkingen . The first name Diethelm is characteristic of the Krenkinger. The indebted barons had to sell the Gutenburg estate to Walter and Burkard von Hohenfels in 1361 . In 1482 the monastery of St. Blasien acquired the village from the lords of Rumlang.

Village fires

From a collection of single-sheet prints from the 16th century, an illustrated village fire of March 3, 1581 has come down to us, in which 7 houses with granaries and barns went up in flames. A text next to the illustration also notes that a man was burned and lists quantitatively the animals and natural objects that were prey to the flames.

In 1875 22 houses burned down in a major fire.

church

The first known church, which was just to the west of the present church, was in 1565 under Abbot I. Caspar built. Since the oldest bell in Krenkingen is much older, an even older church must have existed. The current church was built in 1766 and 1767. The church in Krenkingen has three very old bells.

  • The oldest bell is from 1505, has a diameter of 103 cm at the bell mouth and weighs approx. 800 kg. Josef Eger is noted as the bell founder.
  • The second oldest bell is from 1561, has a diameter of 90 cm at the bell mouth and weighs about 500 kg. The bell founder was H. Lamprecht.
  • The youngest bell comes from the time of the 30 Years War and dates from the year 1637. It has a diameter of 73 cm and weighs approx. 250 kg. The time of origin is described on the bell with "GREAT WAR AND TWITRE", the bell founder was Sebastian Zimmermann from Waldshut and the village surgeon, Caspar Fischer, is immortalized on the bell as a donor of 100 guilders.

Krenkingen was first parish in Tiengen and later in Aichen. In 1722 Krenkingen became an independent parish.

Political Affiliation

In the earliest times, Krenkingen was a community within the Krenkingen rulership, later a bailiwick under the Gutenburg monastery of St. Blasien and passed into this with the establishment of the St Blasian imperial rule of Bonndorf. As part of the reorganization of Europe under Napoleon, the St-Blasian places were successively assigned to different masters. In 1806, the coat of arms of the Kingdom of Württemberg was struck in the place for six months until the place finally fell to the Grand Duchy of Baden as part of an agreement to clean up the borders. On July 1, 1974, Krenkingen was incorporated into the city of Tiengen / Hochrhein. This merged with Waldshut on January 1st, 1975 to form the new town of Waldshut-Tiengen.
