history

The first settlement finds date from the end of the Hallstatt period (700 to 450 BC) in the form of 21 burial mounds in the Gewann Hatzgerwiesen between Neuhausen ob Eck and Worndorf.

A first documentary mention can be found in 1095 in a document in which Pope Urban II confirms that Count Eberhard VI. von Nellenburg and his son Burkhard bequeathed various possessions from the area of villa Nuwenhusin to the Allerheiligen monastery in Schaffhausen .

In 1465, Count Johann zu Nellenburg had sold the Landgraviate of Nellenburg (which included the area around Neuhausen) for 37,905 guilders to Duke Siegmund of Austria , which made the area around Neuhausen part of Upper Austria . Count Eberhard the Elder of Württemberg in turn bought the actual village of Neuhausen from his cousin, Count Eberhard the Younger, for 1,690 guilders before 1481, which means that the village fell to Württemberg . This marked the beginning of a centuries-long dispute between the Habsburgs and Württemberg over ownership and rule over the village. The Vogt in Stockach demanded jurisdiction for Austria because Neuhausen was in the Nellenburg forest.

In order to completely confuse ownership, the All Saints Monastery was also the largest landowner in the area and lord of the church. For centuries the people of Neuhausen lived as "servants of three masters". The dispute was not settled until 1750 when the village was divided. Austria and Württemberg agreed that half of the customs post should be Austrian and half of Württemberg.

On December 4, 1632, during the Thirty Years War , Neuhausen was attacked by Überlingers . Many residents were killed and most of the place burned down. In 1792 there was another major fire, which destroyed almost all buildings. In 1806, Napoleon assigned Neuhausen ob Eck to the Kingdom of Württemberg and thus Oberamt Tuttlingen .

In 1938 an Army Airfield (EDPH, today EDSN) ( Airfield Neuhausen ob Eck ) was set up in Neuhausen , which existed until 1994, after which the garrison was dissolved. Most recently, the Army Aviation Regiment 20 and the Army Aviation Squadron 10 belonging to the 10th Panzer Division with helicopters of the type Bell UH-1 D and BO105 and the military police training company 750 were stationed in the Ludwig-Erhard-Kaserne .

History of the districts

The district of Schwandorf was first mentioned in 1145, Holzach, which belonged to Schwandorf, was mentioned in 785. This village also belonged to Nellenburg, became part of Württemberg in 1805 and became Baden in 1810 . The Schwandorf castle ruins are in the district .

The Worndorf district was first mentioned in a document in 993. It was part of its own rule that came to the Grand Duchy of Baden in 1806 .

Boundary stone in the "teaching forest"

In the course of the regional reform of Baden-Württemberg on January 1, 1973, the previously independent municipalities of Schwandorf and Worndorf were added to Neuhausen ob Eck in Württemberg.

Landmarks

Due to its location, Neuhausen protruded like a wedge between the imperial knighthood (Worndorf) and Baden (Schwandorf) area, it was marked by state boundary stones to these areas. Some of these old landmarks can still be seen in the area of ​​the "Lehrwald" (teaching forest) to the southeast of Neuhauser town center .
A groove indicating the borderline was carved into the top of each stone. The coats of arms of the Kingdom of Württemberg ( KW ) and the Grand Duchy of Baden ( GB ) can be seen on the sides . The other two sides bear the year of installation and the number of the stone in question.

Buildings

Gervasius Church

• The Protestant Gervasius Church was built in 1551/1552.
• The Catholic St. Michaels Church in Neuhausen is a house of worship from 1969. In April 2009, the local council decided to renovate it at a cost of 86,000 euros. There is also another 30,000 euros for the purchase of a new organ.
• The Roman Catholic parish church of St. Mauritius is located in the Worndorf district . The baroque church was built in 1740 and dedicated to Saint Mauritius . In 1988 it was renovated under the responsibility of the Archbishop's Building Authority in Constance. However, in 2008 it had to be renovated and preserved again due to the lack of care by the experts at the time. The 15 by 10 meter stucco ceiling in the nave shows the martyrdom of the church saint. It has a calf hair background from the Baroque period. This had been improperly repaired in the 1920s with willow branches and wooden slats lying in lime mortar. There are also stucco ornaments on the church windows.

Sports

The Lange Halde ski lift in Neuhausen ob Eck has a 350-meter-long prepared slope, a drag lift, a half-pipe and a toboggan run. A floodlight system also allows winter sports in the evening. Since the winter of 2010/11 there has been the “Piratenwelt”, a ski kindergarten on a child-friendly ski slope a little off the piste with a built-up pirate ship.

Regular events

• During the carnival season, people from Neuhausen are teased with "Krawataner". The macabre background is that once there were poor peasants who were divorced from life by hanging with the help of the Sunday tie.
• The nationally known three-day Southside Festival has been held annually since 2000 on the former army airfield near Neuhausen. Since 2004 the tickets have been sold out early and since 2008 around 50,000 festival visitors have been registered regularly. From 2013, the possible number of visitors was increased to 60,000.
