history

Near Rosna there are Hallstatt- era burial mounds from around the 8th to 5th centuries BC.

Rosna herself was first mentioned around 1209 (no later than 1220) in connection with the settled knight dynasty of the fratres de Rosinŏwe ( Lords of Rosna ) in a list of estranged goods, bailiffs and people, which is among the documents of the Weißenau monastery . The document was written without any time or place information, but according to historians it does not relate to estates alienated from the monastery, but rather to Hohenstaufen possessions from the Counts of Pfullendorf's inheritance, which kings Philip , Otto IV and Friedrich II had sold. The place was first mentioned when the hamlets of Stadelhofen and Sahlenbach and two forests near the town of Pfullendorf, which brought in a total of £ 20, were sold and were now owned by the Lords of Rosna . This undated sale will therefore not have taken place before 1209 ( rex Philippus bone memorie ; Philipp died in 1208), but more likely in one of the following years up to the death of Otto IV in 1218 and Frederick's departure from Germany in 1220.

The local nobility attested in the 13th and 14th centuries had their seat at the now- defunct Rosna Castle , which was called the Burgstall in 1373. The same document documents the membership in the Habsthal monastery rule since 1373 . In addition, the Salem Monastery and Buchau Abbey in Rosna were wealthy.

The Thirty Years' War (1618–1648), the Battle of Ostrach on March 21, 1799 of the Franco-German War and the two world wars repeatedly caused serious turning points in the development of Rosna.

Through Napoleonic mediatization and secularization , the place fell to Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen in 1806 . From now on Rosna belonged to the Hohenzollern (from 1850 Prussian) Oberamt Sigmaringen . That passed into the district of Sigmaringen in 1925.

The previously independent municipality of Rosna was incorporated into the city of Mengen on January 1, 1975 as part of the regional reform in Baden-Württemberg.

Religions

For Rosna, the independent parish of Talheim or Rosna was first mentioned in 1275 . In 1432 the Habsthal Abbey incorporated it. Since the establishment of the Habsthal parish in 1825, it was its branch; today the parish of Habsthal-Rosna is part of the Roman Catholic. Parish of Ostrachtal. The Evangelical Church Community in Mengen is responsible for the Protestant residents.

The church was a parish church until it was incorporated into the Habstahl monastery, then a chapel. In 2012 it was again designated as a parish church - now the parish of Habsthal-Rosna; previously the monastery church of St. Stephan in Habsthal was also the parish church. Today it is restored.
