history
The settlement of the village of Mähringen already happened during the time of the Alemannic conquest in the course of the 3rd to 5th centuries. In the high Middle Ages the place belonged to the Duchy of Swabia . First mentions as Moringen are attested from the 12th century. In the late Middle Ages, the Reutlingen-based Bondorfer , later also known under the name Herder , ruled the place. From the time of the Staufer there was a parish court in Mähringen , which was visited by many places in the area in the event of legal disputes. In the course of the 14th and 15th centuries, the rulership rights over the village came to the Pfullingen monastery and the county of Württemberg . In 1471 the place was completely part of Württemberg and subordinated to the Tübingen office. The activity of the Mähringer parish court, which had been handed down from the high Middle Ages, was thus ended immediately. Duke Ulrich pushed through the Reformation in Württemberg in 1534, so that the community of Mähringen also became Protestant.
Since 1758 Mähringen belonged to the Oberamt Tübingen and thus from 1806 to 1918 to the Kingdom of Württemberg .
From 1902 to 1982, Mähringen was part of the privately operated Gönninger Bahn and had been connected to the Württemberg railway network via the Reutlingen station from the beginning of the 20th century (or from 1920 the Reichsbahn and from 1949 the Bundesbahn ). The now closed train station in Mähringen is still there. The former embankment can still be seen.
During the administrative reform during the Nazi era in Württemberg , Mähringen came to the enlarged district of Tübingen in 1938.
After the Second World War, the place fell into the French occupation zone and thus came to the newly founded state of Württemberg-Hohenzollern , which in 1952 became the administrative district of Südwürttemberg-Hohenzollern in the state of Baden-Württemberg.
The municipality of Mähringen, which was independent until 1975, became part of the municipality of Kusterdingen as part of the municipality reform.
Attractions
The Stephanskirche of the Protestant parish Mähringen ( church district Tübingen ) is a monument . A church and parish was first mentioned in 1275. In 1450 the church of St. Stephan was named. Some neighboring towns also belonged to the parish. The patronage of the church came to the local rulers through the Hohenberger. In 1449 it was sold to the Pfullingen monastery. The Reformation was introduced in 1534. The church is essentially Romanesque. It was probably rebuilt and expanded in 1530. Its oldest part - the Romanesque , three-stepped portal on the lower west wall - dates from around 1000 to 1290. During the Second World War, the church had to be renovated in 1941 under the direction of architects Klatte & Weigle due to infestation with brass beetles. On this occasion, the Gothic choir window was decorated with stained glass (scenes from the life of Jesus) based on a design by Walter Kohler . There were further renovations in 1971 and 2001.
