history
Pfalzgrafenweiler in the Middle Ages
Pfalzgrafenweiler was first mentioned in 1165 when the Pfalzgrafenweiler Castle , which was located there, was destroyed by the Count Palatine of Tübingen . The area has belonged to the Nagoldgau under Gaugraf Gerold since the time of Charlemagne . After the Schönbuch had also been subordinated to the Gaugrafen in the 11th century , they moved their headquarters to Tübingen and were allowed to use the title Pfalzgrafen . The small hunting settlement of Wylare was expanded to become a Pfalzgrafenburg. During the feud of Count Palatine Hugo II with the Guelph Count Welf VI. the latter besieged the castle and finally destroyed it in 1165.
After the reconstruction, the castle and the surrounding area were ceded to the diocese of Strasbourg in 1228 , but Count Palatine Rudolf II received them back as a fief immediately. By marriage, the area around Pfalzgrafenweiler came to the Counts of Eberstein in the middle of the 13th century . Around 1420, half of the area came to the margraviate of Baden and half to the county of Württemberg . Pfalzgrafenweiler became part of Württemberg and belonged to the Amt (and later Oberamt) Dornstetten.
Pfalzgrafenweiler in modern times
In 1729 the place received market rights. It was almost completely destroyed in a major fire on April 25, 1798. When the new administrative structure was implemented in the Kingdom of Württemberg , which was established in 1806 , Pfalzgrafenweiler was assigned to the Oberamt Freudenstadt . As a result of the district reform in Württemberg during the Nazi era , Pfalzgrafenweiler became part of the Freudenstadt district in 1938 .
In April 1945, French forces marched into Pfalzgrafenweiler. Gottlieb Henssler was appointed mayor in August 1945 and was confirmed in office in the first free election after the war in 1946. As part of the French occupation zone , Pfalzgrafenweiler came to the newly founded state of Württemberg-Hohenzollern , which in 1952 became the administrative district of Südwürttemberg-Hohenzollern in the state of Baden-Württemberg.
On August 10, 1955, an aircraft collision occurred near Edelweiler during a paratrooper exercise . Both planes crashed at Edelweiler and all 66 occupants were killed.
In 1973 the Schollenrain I industrial area was opened up . In 1982 the town center was renovated. The Schollenrain II industrial park followed in 1993 and Schornzhardt in 2000 . In 2004 the residential area Links am Heuwasen was developed .
Incorporations
As part of the municipal reform in Baden-Württemberg , the additional districts of Pfalzgrafenweiler were incorporated in 1972 and 1975:
- January 1, 1972: Edelweiler
- January 1, 1975: Bösingen, Durrweiler, Herzogsweiler, Kälberbronn
Edelweiler, Herzogsweiler and Kälberbronn did not emerge until the beginning of the 18th century as Württemberg settlements for woodcutters and charcoal burners, whereas Bösingen and Durrweiler already existed in the Middle Ages.
The Count of Hohenberg sold Bösingen in 1363 to the Count of Württemberg. Bösingen then belonged to the office and later Oberamt Nagold .
Durrweiler was owned by the Count Palatine of Tübingen , since the middle of the 13th century as a dowry with the Counts of Eberstein , since 1419 by exchange with the Margraviate of Baden and since 1603 with the Altensteig office near Württemberg. Since 1810 Durrweiler belonged to the Oberamt Freudenstadt.
Religions
At the end of the 15th century Pfalzgrafenweiler received its own church. The place has been evangelical since the Reformation was introduced in 1534 . The small Roman Catholic community is looked after from Waldachtal . The Protestant parishes of the main town Pfalzgrafenweiler (with Edelweiler) and the districts of Bösingen, Durrweiler, Herzogsweiler (with Neu-Nuifra) and Kälberbronn belong to the Freudenstadt church district of the Evangelical Church in Württemberg . The Protestant parish of the district of Bösingen belongs to the church district of Calw-Nagold , although Pfalzgrafenweiler belongs politically to the district of Freudenstadt. There is also a New Apostolic Church in the congregation .
