The village of Neuwilen on the main road Frauenfeld - Kreuzlingen with the hamlets of Oberstöcken and Schwaderloh formed a local parish of the municipality of Alterswilen from 1803 to 1995 .

history

Parish before the merger in 1996

The settlement was first mentioned in 1159 as Nunewillare . Originally located in the Konstanzer Bischofshöri , Neuwilen belonged to the Eggen Vogtei by the middle of the 13th century at the latest . In 1447 it came under the jurisdiction of the Raiti Court of the city ​​of Constance , where it remained until 1798. The rights of the community were laid down in the court opening in 1490 and later in community letters .

Neuwilen was parish first to St. Stephan in Konstanz, then to Tägerwilen and, since the 13th century, always to Alterswilen. After the Reformation in 1529, the few Catholics went to church in Bernrain , from 1831 they belonged to the parish of Emmishofen and today to the parish of Kreuzlingen- Emmishofen.

Neuwilen acquired 150 hectares of forest from the canton in 1805. After grain cultivation in the Dreizelgenwirtschaft , cattle and dairy farming began in the 19th century. A village cheese dairy was established in 1865 and has only been a milk receiving point since 1958. A beer brewery was active from 1845 to 1880, numerous hand stickers from 1870 to 1910 and from 1878 a sieve and wire goods factory. From 1967 to 1987 goods were amalgamated. Since 1992 the A7 motorway has passed through the area of ​​the then local community.
