Rübgarten is called "Riagart" by its inhabitants and in the surrounding area. The name Rübgarten describes the fenced-in part of a corridor , probably an arable field, so a so-called "place name". Rübgarten is very likely a high medieval clearing settlement .

history

Rübgarten Castle from 1710
town hall

From the Neolithic about 2,500 years  BC. Chr. Were stone tools and weapons in the district found Rübgarten and molars and fragments of the Ice Age mammoths . Three large Celtic graves from the Iron Age around 600-400 BC Chr. Suggest the settlement by Celts in Rübgarten. Finds from Roman times in the form of statues , a high relief and an altar bear witness to a settlement in the area around Rübgarten. The route into the Neckar Valley, known as the "Roman Road", can be dated to the late Middle Ages. In 233 AD, the Alemanni invaded and drove most of the Romans out of the area. A pot with coins that had been minted shortly before the Alemanni invasion was found in Einsiedel in 1859.

Rübgarten was first mentioned by name in 1363. The Volen von Wildenau at Burg Wildenau held the local authority. In 1406 the castle was destroyed due to an inheritance dispute. In 1706 the barons of Kniestedt received the fiefdom , who then had the castle built in Rübgarten in 1710. In 1806 Rübgarten became part of the Kingdom of Württemberg and the local rule was dissolved.

As part of the municipal reform of the state of Baden-Württemberg , Rübgarten was incorporated into Pliezhausen on May 9, 1975 . Martin Kemmler is currently the mayor of Rübgarten (2013).

Population development

In 1383 the population was estimated at 125 to 135 inhabitants. As a result of wars, emigration and epidemics, it fluctuated mainly in the years 1810/1818 and 1851. In 2013, Rübgarten had 1989 residents.

Evangelical parish church

The parish church of the Evangelical parish of Rübgarten in the church district of Tübingen was rebuilt in 1811 as a choir-less and largely unadorned preaching hall church in the camera office style, but has an art-historical gem with its winged altar on the north wall. Since the village was considered a manor , iconoclasts never occurred there during the 16th century and the now 500-year-old altar was spared. The winged altar also survived the Thirty Years War without damage. An inscription at the top of the shrine with the words God alone, honor , is however considered a Protestant addition.

Until 1993, all common sources said that the Reutlingen painter Hans Syrer had made the altar. Its name and the year 1505 can finally be read on the back of the altar. The year was questioned before the 1993 investigations, as the Annunciation Mary first appeared in 1509/11 according to known sources. In addition, there are the Renaissance motifs in the decorative areas, which point to a later development. In 1993, restorers at the Stuttgart State Museum came to the conclusion that the year of creation can be dated to 1512 and that Hans Syrer only carried out the painting. This assumption is confirmed by the year 1512 engraved in the gold background, which was overlooked until the more detailed investigations. The figures on the altar were made by Niklaus Weckmann (sculptor from 1481 to 1526 in Ulm ).

In front of the gold brocade ground in the middle of the shrine is the Virgin Mary with the baby Jesus . St. Wendelin stands on Mary's right and St. James on her left . Not least because of this, one of the Jakobsweg runs through Rübgarten, near the parish church.
