 Excursion restaurant "Schlößle" in Lindenau
|
|
Lindenau is a hamlet north of Rammingen on the edge of the Lone Valley in the Alb-Danube district in Baden-Württemberg , near the site of the lion man . In parlance it is used to refer to the excursion restaurant “Schlössle” in the hamlet.
history
Long before the oldest documented mention, in 1274 or 1286, there were settlements at the place where the agricultural property and the inn are located today. Prehistoric finds as well as coins, ceramics and oil lamps from the Roman Empire (15 BC to 476 AD) prove it.
In the immediate vicinity are in the "Lehenhölzle", a wooded plateau in the municipality of Asselfingen north of Lindenau above the Hohlenstein , the wall remains of four Roman buildings and that of a spring socket. Depending on the sources, they are interpreted as a former Roman manor ( villa rustica ), Roman station ( mansio ) or a Roman place of worship. The use of the Hohlensteinhöhlen by the Romans can also be proven by finds.
At the time of Christianization, around 500 AD, it was common for former pagan locations to be chosen for the foundation of monasteries and churches. Presumably, the Roman remains were also the reason for the later establishment of the Lindenau monastery.
First mention and construction of the monastery
Lindenau is first mentioned in a document in 1286 on the occasion of a donation from Heinrich II von Burgau to the Kaisheim monastery near Augsburg. It is spoken of the parish church and the rectory in Lindenau. In the building from 1312, which still exists today, a stone can be found with the year 1274 carved into it. It is assumed that the first buildings existed at least this year, but without clear official information.
Heinrich von Burgau was married to the heiress Adelheid of the Lords of Albeck and thus came into the possession of the Albeck lordship. Adelheid's sister, Hiltburg Countess von Löwenstein, also gave goods to Kaisheim. The daughter of Heinrich and Adelheid, Udelhild, married Count Rudolf von Werdenberg in 1291 and so he got her inheritance, the rule of Albeck. He sued King Albrecht in 1307 for the return of the goods from Kaisheim Monastery, but had to do without it.
Originally Lindenau was a parish village, but it is an abandoned around 1300 around spots have been. Around 1330 it was revived and provided with its own pastor, a religious from Kaisheim. In 1350 the place was again deserted by the plague and the last 4 people moved to Rammingen . At the request of the abbot, Bishop Marquard of Augsburg, the church was connected to that of Rammingen, which resulted in disputes until the end of the old empire. Around 1460 the monastery again sent a religious man who built a grangie , a so-called monk's court. He also had the goods built and the church repaired. Lindenau probably became a place of pilgrimage at the same time .
The church, described by Johann Herkules Haid as beautiful, lay parallel to the current building and shifted to the northwest. Parts of the foundation walls are still visible in the farm yard. According to old maps from 1653 and 1710, a medieval single-nave building with a west tower and a retracted choir can be assumed. This is also reflected in a lithograph by Koch from 1903, which can be found in the Langenau Local History Museum.
1523 Lindenau is still mentioned as a parish . In 1525 the Mönchhof was looted by farmers from Langenau during the Peasants' War. During the Thirty Years War he was abandoned again because of the advancing Swedes. In 1677 a farmer is mentioned in Lindenau. At the beginning of the 18th century there was a new settlement by the Meier Johannes Spegeli, who initially lived in the dilapidated "Klösterle", the hospitium and later built a Meierhof .
The provost house was restored in baroque form around 1730.
Place of pilgrimage
The pilgrimage was before the Reformation especially Gundelfingen and Lauingen carried out, even in 1778, these cities were asked to resume this practice. It took place on the first Sunday of every month and on Marian feasts . In 1778 there was a rosary fraternity . As late as 1805, the now extinct pilgrimage is described as once heavily frequented.
Dissolution of the monastery and transition to private ownership
With the secularization , Lindenau fell to Bavaria in 1803 and to Württemberg in 1810. In 1805 everything was sold in the course of secularization, the church, the parsonage and sacristan house went to the Lindenauer farmer, the furnishings of the church came to various places.
The pilgrimage statue, a representation of the Madonna with the dead Christ, is now in the sacristy of the monastery church in Oberelchingen and is brought into the church for the "high society".
The three bells are in the Ramminger Church today. The large Marienglocke bears the inscription "My name is Marie zur Lindenau ...". Among other things, it also served as a weather bell to warn of storms. Wolfgang Neidhard from Ulm cast it. One of the two smaller bells bears the relief of the painful Madonna as a replica of the Lindenau image of grace. It was cast by Ursus Laubscher from Ingolstadt.
The organ came to the middle church (Leonhardskirche) in Langenau for 111 guilders , the clock in 1805 to Ballendorf . The paraments and the pulpit went to the Ramminger Georgskirche.
In the following years the church was demolished. The stones obtained were used to build a cattle shed.
The rectory or hospitium was temporarily owned by Count Maldeghem and served him as a hunter's house. However, in 1833 it was sold again to a farmer.
Monastery pharmacy
In the building (called Hospitium or Klösterle) that has survived to this day, there was a monastery pharmacy until around 1650. It served to care for the pilgrims who came to Lindenau on pilgrimage. With the dissolution of the monastery in 1803, it came to the pharmacist Gmehlin together with the furnishings in 1805, who set up a pharmacy in Langenau near the Leonhardskirche. From 1850 to around 1950 the pharmacy in Langenau was run by the Miller family. The pharmacist Hans Lunkenbein followed, who set up a small museum with the utensils. In 1965 the Krug family took over the pharmacy and its facilities. Some of the old medicine containers made of wood and porcelain are now in the Langenauer Heimatmuseum or in the possession of the pharmacist Dr. Anton jug.
anecdote
The excursion restaurant was previously operated as a sideline for agriculture. Some guests may still know Rainer Steeger's mother. During her lifetime there was always a note in the tavern that one should call for her in the back of the stable when she was not in the tavern. The landlady also said goodbye to the guests at milking time with the remark that they could be called. “With my mother,” Steeger remembers, “everyone always got something.”
