geography
Geographical location
Pfedelbach is located in the south of the Hohenlohe district , which was newly formed in the course of the district reform in 1973. The community is located in the transition area between the Hohenloher Ebene in the north, part of the Hohenloher-Haller Ebene natural area , and the Waldenburg Mountains and the Mainhardt Forest in the south, which belong to the Swabian-Franconian Forest Mountains natural area . The eponymous and most populous village is still in the foothills of the mountains, at a distance to the west and south of the course of the Ohrn , whose course bends from north to west near Öhringen -Cappel. The Pfedelbach , which gives it its name , runs through the village to the north and reaches the Ohrn as Schleifbach on the other side of the Öhringer district ; it emerges as the outlet of the Buchhorner See .
The community area stretches from the edge of the step as an initially very wide tube southeast into the mountains to Untersteinbach and extends in the northeast to the upper right slope edge of the Ohrn valley bay, sometimes over two kilometers wide, called "Steinbacher Tal", southwest over the top of the separating ridges of the two valleys up to the slope of the Brettach running parallel to the left of the Ohrn . From Untersteinbach from the tube narrows sharply and now follows the ear run further upward slope on the two edges up beyond Schuppach where the settlement ends the disclosive road leaves the valley and then the blades forest covered the valley floor.
The southern parts of Pfedelbach have been part of the Swabian-Franconian Forest Nature Park since 1979 .
geology
Pfedelbach lies between 229 m above sea level. NN ( here on the Ohrn at Tannhof just before Cappel) and 478.7 m above sea level. NN ( here at the Kanzleibückele in Schuppach), on the southern edge of a mighty shell limestone slab that extends from the Kocher valley to the edge of the Keuperbergland . At the southern end of the mark, the step edge of the Keuperwald Mountains rises, the upstream ridge of the Mainhardt Forest . A 5 to 20 meter thick layer of Letten charcoal is stored above the shell limestone , and above it is a layer of loess clay that is very thick in places , which gives off a very fertile soil. They form the basis for viticulture and fruit growing. The shady side of the Keuper slopes is not very suitable for arable farming and is mostly forested. To the south, the terrain rises steeply over a foot of gypsum keuper in the reed sandstone , which creates a terrace, and the colored marls up to the silica sandstone. This forms the top layer on the Frauenberg and the Charlottenberg. In the heights around Gleichen, the Stubensandstein forms the highest floor. Silting lakes on the plateau indicate that the subsoil is clayey. The gypsum keuper is poor in sources.
Land use
The district area, including all districts, is 41.3 km², which are composed as shown in the adjacent table.
Over 50 percent of the area is used for agriculture. In addition, forests have a significant share in land use. They cover about 33 percent of the municipal area.
Neighboring communities
Pfedelbach borders on the cities and communities Öhringen , Waldenburg , Michelfeld , Mainhardt and Bretzfeld . Michelfeld and Mainhardt belong to the Schwäbisch Hall district , the rest to the Hohenlohe district . Pfedelbach forms an agreed administrative community with the large district town of Öhringen and the municipality of Zweiflingen .
climate
Hohenlohe is part of the warm temperate Central European climate zone with a predominantly maritime character. The topography, which changes on a small scale, especially between valley and altitude, causes the climate to vary greatly from place to place. The local climate in Pfedelbach mediates between the milder one of the Neckar basin , the somewhat rougher one of the Hohenlohe plain and the low mountain range climate that prevails in the Swabian-Franconian forest mountains . Pfedelbach has an average annual temperature of 8.7 ° C. The monthly averages for January and July are around one to two degrees lower on the Keuper Heights. These temperature differences are particularly evident in winter, when there is still snow on the heights, but it has long since thawed on the plain. The mean annual total precipitation in Pfedelbach is 734 mm, in the higher areas of the Keuperwald mountains it falls up to 1000 mm and sometimes even more.

The pre-Roman times
The town pastor Richard Kallee in Öhringen found ring walls and burial mounds that indicate settlement in pre-Roman times. Two bronze bracelets were found in Pfedelbach, and bronze rings from the Celtic period in Untersteinbach.
The roman time
Around 159 AD the Romans shifted their border from the Neckar-Odenwald-Limes ( Older Odenwald Line ) about 30 km to the east. The new Limes line , coming from Öhringen, ran between Pfedelbach and Oberohrn across Baierbach and past Gleichen to Mainhardt. The hinterland on the right bank of the Rhine and the Limes were abandoned at the latest in AD 259/60 ( Limesfall ).
Öhringer foundation letter
In Öhringer Foundation letter of 1037 is Phadelbach first mentioned.
The lordship equals with castle
In the course of the administrative reform of the Hohenstaufen, the rule Gleichen (formerly Glychen), to which the places Pfedelbach and Mainhardt also belonged, came into being. In 1027 King Konrad II gave the forest around Mainhardt to the Bishop of Würzburg. Mainhardt and Pfedelbach came as part of the Gleichen lordship at an unknown time as their own property to the Limpurg taverns . In 1274, Schenk Walther transferred the “Villa Meinhart” to King Rudolf von Habsburg, who gave this rule to a ministerial fief. The empire owned the rule Gleichen with castle and hamlet. King Rudolf I von Habsburg (1218–1291) gave Gleichen to his illegitimate son Albrecht von Schenkenberg , who founded the middle line of the Counts of Löwenstein (until 1464). At the beginning of the 14th century, the rule Gleichen with Mainhardt and Pfedelbach came into the possession of the Counts of Löwenstein. King Albrecht exchanged Mainhardt with the Counts of Löwenstein, who pledged it in 1380, together with Gleichen Castle, to von Weinsberg . In 1416 Hohenlohe released the pledge and claimed it in 1417 against claims by the Palatinate. In the period that followed, Pfedelbach was pledged several times to various noble families in order to eliminate the financial difficulties of the Count's Löwenstein family. Count Albrecht von Hohenlohe acquired the Gleichen estate through purchase (1416), which remained in the possession of the Princely House of Hohenlohe-Bartenstein until 1806.
The castle complex and its remains ( castle stables ) are located on the site of the former water reservoir in the village of Gleichen.
Below Hohenlohe-Waldenburg-Pfedelbach
In addition to the Pfedelbach office, the Mainhardt and Sindringen offices also belonged to Hohenlohe-Pfedelbach.

After the purchase of Pfedelbach from Götz von Adelsheim in 1472, a division was agreed between Count Gottfried and Kraft in 1476. Count Gottfried von Hohenlohe received Schillingsfürst , Weikersheim , Forchtenberg , Sindringen , Neudeck, Beutingen, Baumerlenbach and some goods. His brother Kraft von Hohenlohe received Waldenburg , Adolzfurt, half of the city of Öhringen , Pfedelbach, Harsberg, Windischenbach, Lindelberg and the village and Burgstadel Gleichen.
When the Hohenlohe house was divided into the mainland between 1553 and 1555, Pfedelbach became part of the Waldenburg main line and came into the hands of Count Eberhard, who had the castle built and thus made it possible to develop into a residence. Due to the division of the country in 1615 within the Waldenburg line, Ludwig Eberhard became the first regent of the Waldenburg sideline Hohenlohe-Pfedelbach. With the death of Ludwig Gottfried von Hohenlohe-Pfedelbach in 1728, this line became extinct again, and Pfedelbach fell to the Hohenlohe-Bartenstein line. In the high choir of the collegiate church in Öhringen , a wall epitaph by Philipp Jakob and Georg Christoph Sommer commemorates Ludwig Gottfried, the last Count of Hohenlohe-Pfedelbach. An artificial crack runs across this tablet, symbolizing earthly transience.
Jenisch in Pfedelbach
After the Protestant line Hohenlohe-Pfedelbach died out, the Catholic lines Hohenlohe- Schillingsfürst and Hohenlohe- Bartenstein , who were inheriting, sought to increase the Catholic population by settling non-residents on the Heuberg. The new settlers, some of whom had not previously settled down, brought their special language, the Yenish, with them . This variety of the German language was still in use by some of the residents until the 1960s and 1970s . Recently, however, the language was hardly handed down, so there are only very few speakers today. In the cultural and school life in Pfedelbach, however, efforts are made to preserve this tradition. For example, the school newspaper of the Creutzfelderschule is called Der Galmenguffer (Jenisch for teachers). In the project Jenisch, the language of the jugglers, pupils of the Realschule Pfedelbach studied the Jenisch language in Pfedelbach and on the Heuberg.
In addition, the community and festival hall , which was inaugurated in 2017, bears the Yenish name Nobelgusch , which means something like 'noble house'.
From the 19th century to the present
As a result of the mediatization of the Principality of Hohenlohe-Bartenstein, Pfedelbach fell to the Kingdom of Württemberg in 1806 and was initially assigned to the Neuenstein Oberamt, from 1807 to the Öhringen Oberamt , which was subordinated to the Jagstkreis in 1818 . The reform of the administrative structure in Württemberg during the Nazi era led to membership in the district of Öhringen in 1938 . After the Second World War , Pfedelbach belonged to the state of Württemberg-Baden in the American zone of occupation from 1945 to 1952 . With the establishment of the new federal state of Baden-Württemberg in 1952, Pfedelbach became part of the administrative district of North Württemberg, like the district of Öhringen . As a result of the district reform in Baden-Württemberg , Pfedelbach became part of the Hohenlohe district in 1973 .
Religions
In the Öhringer foundation letter of 1037, the donations from Pfedelbach to the new canon monastery Öhringen are listed. Pfedelbach was cared for by the Catholic canons. During the Reformation in 1555, the Canons' Monastery was abolished and its property was given to the Counts of Hohenlohe for church purposes. With this money, an evangelical pastor was first employed in Pfedelbach in 1567 . That is why Pfedelbach has been predominantly Protestant since the Reformation. After the death of the last Protestant Count Ludwig Gottfried von Hohenlohe-Pfedelbach in 1728, the Protestant Church received little support from the new Catholic rule. The salaries for pastors and teachers were no longer sufficient. In 1730, at the instigation of Count Ferdinand von Hohenlohe-Bartenstein, the village of Heuberg was created through clearing and settlement of foreign Catholics. The climax of the disputes between the religious communities was reached in 1744 in the Easter dispute . In 1744, Easter fell on March 29th for Evangelicals and April 5th for Catholics. The Catholic lords of Bartenstein and Schillingsfürst did not want to tolerate a separate Easter festival in their area. The churches were closed and guarded militarily on the Protestant Maundy Thursday and Good Friday under threat of severe punishment .
The Catholic parish of Pfedelbach has belonged to the Würzburg diocese since the Middle Ages . The Catholic parish that was newly established in 1732 was assigned to the Krautheim regional chapter . After Hohenlohe passed to Württemberg, the spiritual rights of Würzburg ended. Pfedelbach was assigned to the Neckarsulm chapter in 1808 . In 1890 the neo-Gothic parish church of St. Peter and Paul was built . With the influx of many Catholic expellees from 1945 onwards, the Catholic community grew strongly. Today the community belongs to the pastoral care unit Hohenlohe-Süd of the Deanery Hohenlohe in the diocese of Rottenburg-Stuttgart .
The Protestant church is divided into the parish of Pfedelbach ( Peter and Paul Church ) with Windischenbach, Heuberg, Buchhorn and Oberohrn as well as the parish of Untersteinbach with Gleichen, Harsberg and the Michelfelder suburb of Büchelberg in the Schwäbisch Hall district . The parishes belong to the church district Öhringen of the Evangelical Regional Church .
In addition to the two large churches in Pfedelbach, there is a congregation of the New Apostolic Church in Southern Germany and the Philadelphia congregation in Hohenlohe in the union of Pentecostal congregations .
Incorporations
- January 1, 1971 Oberohrn
- July 1, 1971 Windischenbach
- December 1, 1971 Harsberg
- January 1, 1972 Untersteinbach
- January 1, 1973 Schuppach and Heimaten, districts of the former municipality of Geißelhardt
The incorporation in Pfedelbach was unproblematic because the then mayor Erich Fritz was also mayor of the then still independent communities of Oberohrn, Windischenbach and Harsberg. The administration was largely carried out by the administrative staff in Pfedelbach and regular on-site presence meant that the statutory reform in Pfedelbach on January 1, 1975 had been carried out on a voluntary basis for a long time.

The population of Pfedelbach developed from 1824 to 1933 according to the census results given in the state handbooks as follows. By the middle of the 19th century, the sub-communities experience a significant increase in population. Only Pfedelbach himself could not keep up with this development. The political unrest of 1848/1849, bad harvests and the potato disease promoted emigration overseas and to other areas; the population decreased considerably as a result. It only grew again after the Second World War, after the fall of the Iron Curtain in Pfedelbach and, above all, in Windischenbach , after the fall of the Iron Curtain .

The Princely Barrel from 1752
- The base of the hexagonal limit guard tower ( ORL -number Wp 9/51 ) in same, about 155 n. Chr.
- Pfedelbach Castle , former moated castle , built from 1568 to 1572, acquired and renovated by the Pfedelbach community in 1962
- In 1604 the cellar was built, an elongated half-timbered building on Baierbacher Strasse. The mansion cellar under the building is 70 m long, 12 m wide and large enough to store several hundred thousand liters of wine. Today the Lange Bau , as the building is popularly known, is home to the wine museum. The attraction of the museum is the fourth largest wine barrel in southern Germany, called the Fürstenfass , it held 64,664 l. It was commissioned by Prince Joseph von Hohenlohe Bartenstein in 1752. The prince's barrel was last filled in 1828 with the tithe wine that the subjects had to deliver to their prince. The Hohenlohe winery was founded in 1950 in the historic Fürstenfass cellar by 14 winemakers at the time. The building itself was extensively renovated in 2007/2008.
- Gasthaus Sonne , former royal widow's residence. The year 1662 at the cellar entrance. Acquired in 1746 by Princess Anna Felicitas, the widow of Prince Ferdinand von Hohenlohe-Bartenstein. She had the house rebuilt and lived in it until her death in 1751. 1769 sold to Oberjäger Carl von Tettenborn, then several changes of ownership until 1990. Acquired in 1990 by the Pfedelbach community. Renovated from 1992 to 1995.
- Evangelical Peter and Paul Church , built from 1588 to 1589 by Countess Agathe von Hohenlohe-Pfedelbach in place of an old Gothic chapel. The images of the apostles and prophets on the gallery are probably works by the painter Creutzfelder. In 1730 the church tower had to be stabilized with iron brackets. In 1749 the church was renovated; the foundations had shifted. In 1890 the church was about to collapse and was closed by order of the building police. The church was torn down except for the tower and the choir. The new building designed by the architect Frey from Stuttgart was to be built for 105,000 marks. Two lotteries were launched for financing. To this end, an aid committee was set up in Öhringen. a. published a cry for help for Pfedelbach . In 1963 a new bell cage was installed and the heavy steel bells were replaced by lighter bronze bells. In 1992 the new organ was inaugurated. The crypt of Countess Christina Juliana, whose epitaph is on the north side of the choir, was found again in 1999 during the renovation of the heating system behind the altar.
- The construction of a chapel began in 1679 at the Protestant cemetery; when the foundation stone was laid, it was given the name Zum heiligen Grab , with reference to the Church of the Holy Sepulcher in Jerusalem. The construction was completed in 1681 and was inaugurated with the participation of locals and foreigners. On the chapel sat a turret with a heavy bell, financed primarily from collections. The construction was obviously carried out in a very messy way. As early as 1751 it was so dilapidated that a collapse was to be feared, which is why the chapel was demolished. Collectors went on a trip to raise grants and donations for the new building. But it was not until 1759 that the foundation stone for the successor chapel could be laid.
- Catholic church Sankt Petrus und Paulus , built from 1888 according to plans of the architect Pohlhammer in the Windischenbacher Straße. The white sand-lime brick used comes from the Strohberg near Untersteinbach, the stone material on the north side from the Buchhorn quarries. The bell was cast by Petit & Gebr. Edelbrock in Gescher , it cost 4,000 marks. The total cost of the neo-Gothic building was 90,000 marks. On August 30, 1888, Auxiliary Bishop Dr. Wilhelm von Reiser visited the church with a lot of people. During the Second World War, the three choir windows were destroyed by artillery fire. Damage from the bombardment is still visible on the north side.

Count Friedrich Kraft von Hohenlohe-Pfedelbach, 1623–1681
Because the climate there was milder than up there in his castle in Waldenburg, Count Eberhard von Waldenburg built the former moated castle in Pfedelbach, also a moated castle, as his winter residence from 1568 to 1572 , on the walls of a previous ministerial castle. The characteristic corner towers identify the complex as a building from the middle of the 16th century.
Like many other Hohenlohe residential castles , the building was built around a square courtyard, in the Renaissance style . In the inner courtyard of the castle one recognizes echoes of Tuscan castle buildings with arcades . In the inner courtyard of the eastern wing, there are two galleries one above the other. Elaborate tendril and flower paintings adorn the compartments of the castle. During the Hohenlohe cultural summer, events take place in the castle courtyard.
The magnificent palace chapel, which is occasionally used for weddings and concerts, was set up by Count Ferdinand von Hohenlohe-Bartenstein in 1732 on the site of the old bakery. From 1811 to 1888 the castle chapel served as a Catholic parish church.
An alliance coat of arms Hohenlohe- Tübingen hangs above the coat of arms portal on the entrance side of the castle . It goes back to the builder of the castle, married to Agathe, Countess of Tübingen. The couple's grave plaque is in the collegiate church in Öhringen .
For a long time, Pfedelbach Castle was the official seat and residence of the Hohenlohe family . The Pfedelbach community acquired the castle in 1962 and renovated it; in 2005 and 2006 it was completely renovated. The Bürgersaal is used today as a conference room and event room. In the Bürgersaal there is, among other paintings, a ceiling painting by Joachim Georg Creutzfelder and a copy of the Öhringer foundation letter from 1037. There are also numerous private apartments in the castle. The castle gives the Pfedelbach Castle Festival, which takes place every three years, its appropriate ambience.

Limes World Heritage Site
Pfedelbach is crossed by the Upper Germanic-Raetian Limes , built by the Romans from 50 AD , which was supposed to secure the newly conquered area between the Rhine and Danube by a border guarded and fortified by troops. A total of 20 guard posts (WP 9/37 to 9/56) on this border line were located on Pfedelbacher markings, of which No. 9/51 is the best known, the hexagonal tower at Gleichen on the edge of the Beckemer level ( 420 m above sea level ). The hexagonal shape of the tower was unusual, its wall was a full meter thick, and it must have been higher than the usual towers. It probably served as a previously established market point during the Limes construction. The tower was excavated in 1893. It is the only such tower on this Limes section. On a clear day, the view to the north extended far beyond the Hohenlohe plain to the Hönehaus fort about 45 km away. A large part of the plateau towards Mainhardt could also be overlooked to the south. You can reach its location on a hiking trail of around 1 km from the hiking car park in Unterleichen. From here the Limes once ran in a straight line towards the north-northwest, past Oberhöfen, through Baierbach, over the Hofäcker, Wacholder, over the Cappelrain to Öhringen , while here in the opposite direction, an exception in the entire course to Welzheim, through one Bow bypasses a steep gorge. Around the former tower, from which the base is visible, the moat and rampart are still clearly visible in the area of the Gleichener Forest. Digital terrain models , which were generated on the basis of data collected during Lidar measurement flights in 2009 , show two structures in the ground relief near Lake Gleichen , which could be small Roman forts based on the ground plan . The Upper-Rhaetian Limes is an archaeological monument and since 2005 a World Heritage Site of UNESCO . He is looked after by the Limes-Cicerones . In Pfedelbach, the Limes nature trail Mainhardter Wald runs along its route. The Limes Diorama can be viewed in the town hall during normal opening hours.
