history

King Konrad III confirmed this in a royal document, which is now kept in the Thurgau State Archives . on January 7, 1152, that a noble and free man named Marcwardus, probably from the family of the Barons von Krenkingen , had founded a cella in Tiezelenheim , today's Detzeln . The brothers should live according to the rule of Saint Augustine . The Lords of Krenkingen were appointed as guardians . The hermitage was probably located near today's Klausenhof. From 1166 the hermitage was no longer mentioned, but the former location remained in the possession of the monastery until it was closed.

Thus the creation of a will Augustinian canons - monastery confirmed but this was initially not in Riedern am Wald but in "Tezzilnheim" today Detzeln, a district of Waldshut-Tiengen. The cell may initially have only comprised a small enclosure and the chapel. The monastery was under the protection of the Krenkinger, the first abbot is named 14 years after it was founded: Abbot Gerlo von Detzeln.

In 1214, in a document from Pope Innocent III. first mentioned the monastery Riedern am Wald . In 1639 the Vogteirecht came from the Lupfen to the Pappenheim. This was followed by the Prince of Fürstenberg .

The monastery burned down on July 16, 1740 around 1 p.m. After that, the reconstruction in the Baroque style took place with the help of the Augustinian Canon Monastery of Kreuzlingen , under the abbot Johann Baptist Dannegger, which from then on also had the legal say. On June 30, 1749, the newly built building was inaugurated by the Auxiliary Bishop of Constance and Titular Bishop of Domitiopolis , Count Franz Carl Joseph Fugger .

The monastery in Riedern am Wald was in Swiss hands through the monastery in Kreuzlingen and could therefore not be closed in 1803, but in 1812 it was decided to sell it to private individuals. The monastery building and the church have recently been renovated.

At the same time there was also a small women's monastery, called the "lower provost", built in 1670. It was closed in 1803.

On December 1, 1972, Riedern am Wald was incorporated into the community of Ühlingen. On January 1, 1975, this formed the new community of Ühlingen-Birkendorf together with Birkendorf and Brenden.
