history

The oldest written mention of Nenningen comes from the year 1270.

There is evidence of a parish in Nenningen since 1397. At that time there was a Johannes Rechberg pastor in Nenningen. In the second half of the 16th century and then again from the Thirty Years War until 1796, Nenningen was parish in Weissenstein , after which it had its own pastor again. The patronage and the construction work of the rectory lay with the Counts von Rechberg , the church was maintained by a foundation maintenance. The municipality was responsible for the maintenance of the chapel , which was built in 1774 and replaced an older building. An old fortified church was replaced by the parish church of St. Martinus in the center of the village in 1910 after the church tower collapsed on August 14, 1909. Some figures, including a Gothic Pietà and a crucifix, have been moved from the old to the new church.

The Protestant residents were parish off to Degenfeld.

The noble family von Nenningen belonging to the place can be proven in documents from the 13th to 15th centuries. Representatives of this family were the German master Wölflin von Nenningen, Anselm von Nenningen , who became Bishop of Augsburg in 1413 , Johann von Nenningen, who was a commentator in Ulm in 1422 , and Kaspar von Nenningen, for whom there is a document from 1481. The von Nenningen family probably had their ancestral castle on the 717 m high Galgenberg (Burghalden), which is northeast of the actual town. In the 19th century, traces of an extensive fortification could still be found on this mountain, but no remains of the castle.

View from Weißenstein towards Nenningen

Nenningen was a man fief of the von Rechberg family. The only exception were five farms, which initially belonged to Degenfeld , but were sold to Württemberg by Christoph von Degenfeld in 1597 . Württemberg in turn assigned them to the Oberamt Königsbronn .

In 1605, Württemberg bought from Sibille von Laubenberg, née Rechberg, whose rights to the property of the Rechbergers in Nenningen.

In 1806, Nenningen came, according to the description of the Oberamt Geislingen, together with the dominion of Weißenstein to Bavaria , in 1810 to Württemberg . More differentiated, more recent sources present the local history: From 1806 the district on the right of the Lauter belonged to Württemberg and until 1810 was assigned to the community of Degenfeld in the Oberamt Gmünd, the district to the left of the Lauter belonged to Bavaria until 1810 and then to Württemberg. After that the congregation was reunited.

Then, until 1938, Nenningen belonged to the Oberamt Geislingen , then to the district of Göppingen . In 1974, Nenningen was united with Weißenstein to form the town of Lauterstein. In 1977 a reservoir was inaugurated to protect Nenningen from flood damage.

In 1843 Nenningen had 462 inhabitants. Rudolph Friedrich von Moser , who passed on this number in his Complete Description of Württemberg , also reports that there was once a nunnery in the place, and adds to his information about Nenningen with the following sentences: “In the area you can find many fossils, especially Ammon's horns ; It is also assumed that wine was once grown here. ”In 1970 Nenningen had almost 1500 inhabitants.

On January 1, 1974, the town of Weißenstein and the municipality of Nenningen were merged to form the new town of Lauterstein.
