Niedereggenen (also known as Eckheim, Eggenhain, Eginheim or Echinaim) is a suburb of the municipality of Schliengen in the district of Lörrach in Baden-Württemberg .

geography

location

The elongated village valley settlement extends to the left and right of the Hohlebach.

Neighboring places

In the west and south, Niedereggenen borders on the Schliengen district of Liel, in the south also on the Kanderen district of Feuerbach and in the east on the Schliengener district of Obereggenen. In the north, the place borders the Schliengener district Mauchen and the Müllheim district Feldberg (Gennenbach).

history

On the Hagschutz - a hill near Niedereggenen - traces of the Michelsberg culture were found, from which it is concluded that a Neolithic settlement existed. The southern plateau of the hill is separated from the northern spur by a wall with a ditch, although the function and dating of this system are still unclear. One hypothesis is that there was a Celtic refuge here. A Bronze Age grave was also found near the village.

The first known documentary mention dates from June 12, 773 and can be found in the Lorsch Codex of the Lorsch monastery , which owned land in the village. It remains unclear, however, whether the place called Eckenheim refers to Nieder- or Obereggenen or a settlement that has not yet been divided. In a document dated June 27, 820, a transfer of goods to the Prince Abbey of St. Gallen in Eichinaim is attested. In the Chronicle of Bürgeln, written around 1160 by a monk from the St. Blasien monastery , a distinction is made between inferius Ekkinheim and superius Ekkinheim . In the High Middle Ages , the Lords of Üsenberg ruled the place. The wing has been adopted from their coat of arms in today's local coat of arms. The monastery of St. Blasien also owned land in Niedereggenen in the Middle Ages. From the Üsenbergers rights in Niedereggenen came to the barons of Krenkingen through marriage.

On September 21, 1341, Count Konrad von Freiburg settled a dispute between Margraves Rudolf and Otto von Hachberg-Sausenberg on the one hand and Baron Leutold von Krenkingen and his son of the same name on the other. Both parties owned half of the localities Brombach and Niedereggenen. The margraves were allowed to keep Brombach , while Niedereggenen went to von Krenkingen. However, the Krenkinger immediately sold the village with all rights to a Basel citizen, Heinrich von Walpach, who then quarreled with the margraves over the high jurisdiction in Niedereggenen in 1346. On December 22, 1346, however, he waived his claims after Margrave Otto named witnesses for the rights of the margraves. In 1347, Margrave Rudolf appeared in a document as lord of the church in Niedereggenen.

In 1380 the village was pledged to the barons of Baden , who were based in neighboring Liel . Margrave Wilhelm von Hachberg-Sausenberg first acquired the right to redeem this pledge from Mathias von Walpach in 1430, and in 1470 Margrave Rudolf IV also redeemed it . The village then went with the entire margraviate of Hachberg-Sausenberg in 1503 to the margraviate of Baden , whose further fate it shared.

After the end of the old empire, Niedereggenen came to the office of Schliengen and Oberamt Badenweiler in the Electorate of Baden in 1803 and to the office of Kandern in 1809 and in 1819 the district office / district of Müllheim of the Grand Duchy of Baden .

In the battle of Schliengen

The Battle of Schliengen was a battle of the First Coalition War in which the armies of Austria under Archduke Charles of Austria and the French Republic under General Jean Moreau faced each other. It took place on October 24, 1796 in the Markgräflerland between Basel and Freiburg im Breisgau . The battlefield extended to Schliengen (with its today's districts of Mauchen, Liel, Obereggenen , Niedereggenen), Steinenstadt , Sitzenkirch and Kandern . An Austrian column was set up under General Maximilian Baillet von Latour near Liel and in the Eggener Valley . The Latour Corps took Ober- and Niedereggenen and then limited themselves to mock battles, as they could not track their own artillery in the rain-soaked terrain.

The cannon valley from 1849

wooden cannon in Niedereggenen

In the Baden revolution of 1848/1849, the Eggenertal - like the Kandertal - took a conservative stance. Of course, there was also a minority of revolutionary-minded citizens and there were repeated executions by associations of the revolutionary government, since the Eggenertal did not provide the desired military armed forces. The idea came up to build a cannon to defend against the revolutionaries. For this purpose, a wooden barrel was used that was made from a well wood and that one wanted to hold together with iron bands. However, the test shot failed miserably and the cannon shattered, whereby the operation was still endangered. The story naturally gave rise to ridicule and earned the valley the nickname Kanonental .

In July 1849, citizens loyal to the government filed charges of treason and terrorism against the Zöllin brothers, of which little remained after long investigations by the Müllheim district office.

Incorporation

On January 1, 1973, Niedereggenen was incorporated into Schliengen.

religion

Niedereggenen belonged to the margraviate of Baden-Durlach when the Reformation was introduced there in 1556 and - like Obereggenen - is still predominantly Protestant, while Schliengen itself and the other districts have remained Catholic because of their respective local lords.

Culture and sights

Buildings

Evangelical Church in Niedereggenen

The listed church is adorned with valuable frescoes from the 15th century in the choir and nave . → see main article Evangelical Church in Niedereggenen

A stepped gable house stands out on the thoroughfare , which was already noticed when the art monuments of the Grand Duchy of Baden were recorded.

societies

Niedereggenen has a sports club with Liel. There is also the sport shooting club, the women's club and a department of the Schliengen volunteer fire brigade. The Eggenertal men's choir is active on the cultural side. This emerged from the two associations of the Niedereggenen men's choir and the Obereggenen men's choir. The two clubs merged on April 1, 2005.

politics

The local constitution was introduced in 1973/74. There is a local administration with a local mayor and six local councils. In the course of the municipal reform in 1973/74, the main statute for the municipal council introduced the false choice of part of the town. Niedereggenen has two seats in the Schliengen municipal council.

Public facilities

The place has its own kindergarten and elementary school.

economy

The Eggenertal is known for its fruit growing, whereby cherries are grown in particular. During the cherry blossom season, the valley attracts many hikers. Vines were already mentioned in the document from 773.
