 Location of Mambach
|
|
Mambach is a district of the town of Zell im Wiesental in the Black Forest , which is around four kilometers up the valley from the town of an der Wiese and is a state-approved resort . The forest takes up around 30.4 hectares of the 447 hectare municipal area. The settlement and development of the place is exclusively along the valley axis.
location
Mambach is located around 3.5 kilometers northeast of Zell im Wiesental. The Angenbach flowing from the east into the valley flows into the meadow in the village. The highest point is reached in the district northwest of Silbersau in the direction of the Brendewald at an altitude of 768 m .
Mambach consists of a part to the left and right of the meadow. The federal highway 317 runs parallel to the river . The actual town center ( 461 m high) is to the left of the meadow. From here the state road 146 branches off in the direction of the Angenbach valley. The road leads to Häg-Ehrsberg or further over the St. Antoni Pass to Todtmoos . From the district to the right of the meadow, a serpentine road leads to Pfaffenberg and over the Zimmerplatz pass to Adelsberg .
The Saufert residential area is located north of Mambach on the left-hand course of the Wiese river . About 300 meters up the valley are the residential areas Mühlschau and about half a kilometer in Sibersau, both of which also belong to Mambach.
history
The first written mention of Mambach goes back to a comparison of 1377, which Rudolf von Schönau concluded with the St. Blasien monastery . Another mention of the place in 1546 is recorded with Manbach, possibly the derivation of a personal name Manno. Mambach, together with the neighboring village of Silbersau and Zinken Saufen (formerly Seufart), belonged to the Vogtei of Zell to the Lords of Schönau until 1811 . There is evidence of a local school as early as 1779. A new school building was inaugurated in 1873 and set up as a training school a year later . This could not last, however, so that after a school reform in Mambach only the elementary school remained and the secondary school migrated to Zell.
The chronicle of road construction and road traffic in the Grand Duchy of Baden reports on a major fire on June 30, 1870, in which 21 residential houses and twelve other buildings in Mambach burned down. As a result, a new building line was necessary, which required a redesign of the pass road to St. Antoni. The previous gradient of 7 to 8% has been reduced to 4.2%. The new road through Mambach was elevated to a country road in 1872. In the years 1874 and 1875 further structural measures were carried out at the Häger mill and the Happacher saw, which among other things resulted in a widening of the route to 4.20 meters. The maximum gradient was reduced to 8.5%. The cost of improving the road was given at 49,951 marks .
The fourth stage of the 17th international six-day race led through Mambach on September 12, 1935.
As part of the municipal reform, Mambach was incorporated into the city of Zell on January 1, 1975.

coat of arms
The blazon of the Mambach coat of arms is a golden Antonius cross with two silver bells on a red background. The cross is the heraldic form of a cane, the order of the Antonites and is intended to attract attention when collecting alms through the bells. The coat of arms refers to the patron saint of the chapel, St. Antonius the Hermit.
Culture and sights
Site and buildings
The chapel, mentioned in 1809, stood on the site of today's town hall until the fire disaster on June 30, 1870 and was then rebuilt as the Antonius chapel. Sometimes the Antoniuskapelle is also referred to as the Mambach village church.
There has been a forge in Mambach since at least 1719, which makes it one of the oldest in the entire Black Forest. For generations it was operated as a blacksmith and wagon forge and after the village fire it was rebuilt in 1871 and expanded again and again. The forging business was closed in 1985. The entire inventory has been preserved and has been a listed building since 2013 because of its technical and local history . From 2012 to 2016, a restoration was carried out with the help of the association that looks after the needs of the old forge. The working forge is available for visitors to visit.
Maria Frieden mountain chapel
On the Mambacher district in the direction of Pfaffenberg stands on the hilltop of the Köpfles at 594 m above sea level. NN the Catholic mountain chapel Maria Frieden . It goes back to the initiative of parish curate Eugen Thoma, who had the chapel built by the curate Atzenbach as a thank you for sparing the meadow valley and as a reminder of peace immediately after the Second World War . The groundbreaking ceremony took place in June 1945, the topping-out ceremony took place on September 21, 1945 and the inauguration took place on June 17, 1946.
The chapel is a rectangular building with six arched windows. A choir with two windows is attached to it. The two components have gable roofs of different heights. A roof turret sits on it in the west. The altarpiece was created by the Freiburg painter Hans Franke . Today's organ was built in 1970 by the Bavarian company Deininger & Renner and works with a sliding drawer , a mechanical action mechanism and a mechanical-electrical stop mechanism . It has a manual and an independent pedal .
Bergklause Maria Frieden
A little northwest of the mountain chapel, where the path to the chapel branches off the local road connecting Mambach and Pfaffenberg, the Maria Frieden mountain hermitage was opened in autumn 1947 as a home for refugee orphans. The home also goes back to the initiative of Eugen Thoma and was planned by the architect Adolf Julius Lorenz . From 1994 to 2011, Father Ludwig Kuhn (1945–2016) ran the house on behalf of his Pallottine order and made it an ecumenical meeting place for spiritual and religious life.
societies
In Mambach there is a fire brigade music association founded in 1900. The founding meeting took place on February 14, 1900 and was formed from a total of 60 members.
In 1986 the Germane Mambach association was founded. The association, which consists of almost 400 members, revives Germanic customs and traditions and organizes various festivals and celebrations.
Economy and Infrastructure
Mambach was traditionally a very agricultural community. The importance of agriculture has decreased significantly over the last few decades. Instead, the manufacturing industry gained significantly in importance.

There is a power plant in the Saufert residential area. The hydropower plant, built between 1897 and 1899, then under the name Elektrizitätswerk Zell (EWZ), is now part of the Energiedienst Holding . It was modernized in 1905, 1925 and 2015 and recently upgraded with ecological measures such as a near-natural bypass channel and a protective screen for fish. There are two Francis spiral turbines in the hydropower plant . From a gradient of 37 meters, they produce an annual average of 6.9 million kWh of electricity and have an output of 1152 kW. This makes it the most powerful of the small hydropower plants along the Wiesental. It supplies around 2000 households with electricity.
Mambach is not connected to the Wiesentalbahn, which ends in Zell . The Zell im Wiesental – Todtnau railway line existed until 1966/1967 and had a stop in Mambach. The only public transport is guaranteed by a stop on the B 317 on a regional bus route .
Rescue points are located on the B 317 (bus stop) and on the L 146 about 500 meters after the Mambacher Bridge .
Until the end of 2012, the small Wiesengrund campsite was located on the right bank of the meadow in the south .
