history

Town center
Landvogtei Schliengen

Schliengen was first mentioned in 820 as Sliingas in a document book of the St. Gallen Abbey Library . It used to belong to the Principality of Basel , where it had been the seat of the Landvogtei Schliengen since 1719. The long affiliation to the Principality of Basel can also be seen on the Basel staff in the left half of the coat of arms. In 1546, the Prince-Bishop of Basel issued a village order that was valid until the introduction of the “Badische Gemeindeordnung” in the 19th century. In 1704, Schliengen was granted market rights by the Prince-Bishop of Basel .

In the First Coalition War against France, Archduke Karl forced the French General Jean-Victor Moreau to retreat across the Rhine near Hüningen on October 24, 1796 in the Battle of Schliengen .

After secularization due to the Reichsdeputationshauptschluss of 1803, the place came to the Grand Duchy of Baden and from 1803 to 1810 was the seat of the Schliengen district office . Modern rail traffic reached Schliengen on June 15, 1847, when the section Müllheim (Baden) - Schliengen was opened. In Baden, Schliengen belonged to the district of Müllheim for a long time and was assigned to the district of Lörrach in 1973 after its dissolution .

In the course of the municipal reform in Baden-Württemberg on January 1, 1973, the previously independent municipalities of Liel, Mauchen and Niedereggenen were incorporated. Obereggenen was incorporated on January 1, 1974.

While Mauchen - like Schliengen himself - was part of the Duchy of Basel, Liel belonged to the Barons of Baden and thus to Upper Austria ; Nieder- and Obereggenen belonged to the margraviate of Baden-Durlach , so that today's large community of Schliengen is made up of areas from three earlier imperial estates .

The coats of arms of the incorporated places are shown below:

Religions

Due to the fact that it belonged to the Principality of Basel , the Reformation passed Schliengen by, so that the place is still predominantly Roman Catholic today. Although the Prince-Bishop of Basel ruled over Schliengen, the church belonged to the Catholic Diocese of Constance , and since the beginning of the 19th century it has belonged to the Archdiocese of Freiburg . There is now an evangelical pastoral office in Schliengen and the districts . The districts of Niedereggenen and Obereggenen with sound singing are traditionally Protestant . According to the 2011 census , 37.9% of the population of Schliengen were Catholic, 35.6% Protestant and 26.5% belonged to another or no religious community.

Bürgeln Castle

Bürgeln Castle

The Castle Bürgeln is located high above the vineyards of the Markgräflerland, amid cherry trees, fields and forests. It was built as a church in the 11th century and used as a monastery from 1100 .

In 1762 the building was rebuilt by Franz Anton Bagnato at the instigation of Provost Aloysius Mader and Prince Abbot Meinrad Troger of the St. Blasien Monastery , to which the Provosty belonged, in the early Classicist style with rococo furnishings . In 1920 the castle was threatened by auction, which was prevented by the establishment of the Bürgeln Association. Around the castle there is an 80 m² rose garden, from which one has an overview of the Vosges , Basel and the Sausenburg ruins.

Today, numerous events take place at Schloss Bürgeln, especially in summer. In the mid-1980s, the castle was the location of a ZDF series entitled Lorenz & Sons .

Entenstein moated castle

Entenstein Castle

The moated Entenstein castle in the core town of Schliengen houses the town hall and the municipal administration.

In 1725 the castle was bought by the Prince-Bishop of Basel, Johann Konrad II von Reinach-Hirtzbach , and used as the seat of the Obervogtei Schliengen of the Principality of Basel. The castle park invites you to go for walks in every season and is the venue for numerous wine and street festivals in summer.
