history

Seven burial mounds southwest of Ringgenbach are known from prehistoric times . The present-day village of Ringgenbach was based on the founding of the hamlet Kogenhofen , also known as Kogenhoven . The village was first mentioned in 1237 when a knight Johannes von Ringgenbach appeared. The place was originally in the area of Goldineshuntare , then in Gau Ratoldesbuch and later in the county of Sigmaringen . In 1285 the place is said to have passed from the possession of the lords of Buwenburg and the lords of Hohenfels to Althohenfels to the Wald monastery , but it is still mentioned in 1441 as part of the Neu-Hohenfels rule. As a result, the Wald monastery was the local lord until 1806, when ownership passed to Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen . The owners of the count's rights changed with the owners of the Grafschaft Sigmaringen until the rights were transferred to Austria in 1783 with the patronage of Kloster Wald von Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen . From 1806 the village belonged to the princely and from 1850 as part of the Hohenzollernsche Land until 1862 to the Prussian Oberamt Wald and since then to the Oberamt Sigmaringen , which became part of the Sigmaringen district in 1925. In the 15th century, the Counts of Rohrdorf , the Counts of Zimmer and the town church in Messkirch had ownership and rights in the village .

On January 1, 1975, Ringgenbach was incorporated into the city of Meßkirch.

The wave bar points to the Ringgenbach, the colors gold and red to the county of Sigmaringen, in whose area the place was located. In 1806 Ringgenbach came to the Principality of Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen.
