history
Until the 18th century
Süßen was first mentioned in 1071 as Siezun in the Lorsch Codex . Later two villages existed: Großsüßen left der Fils initially belonged to the Counts of Helfenstein , who pledged it to Ulm in 1382. Kleinsüß to the right of the Fils, however, belonged to the von Rechberg family . After the death of Philipp von Rechberg , the place fell to the Pappenheim family in 1529 , who bequeathed it to the von Bubenhofen family in 1553 . Below the place and opposite the confluence of the Schweinbach into the Fils was the escort border between the Duchy of Württemberg and the free imperial city of Ulm . In the Spanish War of Succession in 1707 Großsüßen burned down with the exception of a few houses.
19th and 20th centuries
As part of the mediatization after the Reichsdeputationshauptschluss , Großsüßen first came to the Electorate of Bavaria in 1802 , and Kleinsüßen in 1806 to the now Kingdom of Bavaria . In 1810, after an area swap, both places were assigned to the Kingdom of Württemberg and subordinated to the Geislingen District Office .
With the opening of the Filstalbahn in 1847, the Württemberg railway reached Kleinsüßen. In 1933, large and small sweets were united to form the new community of sweetness. The district reform in 1938 during the Nazi era in Württemberg led to the affiliation to the district of Göppingen . Towards the end of the Second World War , American soldiers marched into Süßen on April 20, 1945, which marked the end of the war in the town and the beginning of the occupation . Süßen became part of the new state of Württemberg-Baden , which was merged into the present state of Baden-Württemberg in 1952. In 1946, more than 1,600 displaced persons and refugees moved in, who at the time made up 42 percent of the population. On July 1, 1996, Süßen was raised to the city.
Religions
While the Reformation was introduced in 1539 in Großsweet, which belongs to Ulm , the paperboard native, Kleinsweet, remained Roman Catholic .
Population development
The population figures from 1837 to 2015 are census results (¹) or official updates from the State Statistical Office ( main residences only ).

coat of arms
Blazon : "Above a lowered shield division at the top in silver three red zigzag bars (the lowest cut off), below divided by black and silver."
After the union of large and small sweets in 1933, the community of Süßen adopted the current coat of arms. It connects the zigzag bars of the Lords of Bubenhofen, who once owned small sweets, with the shield, divided by black and silver, of the imperial city of Ulm as the former owner of large sweets. The Interior Ministry issued the flag on March 13, 1958.
Flag: red-white (red-silver).
Twin cities
There is a city partnership with the Hungarian city of Törökbálint / ( Großturwall ) . This relationship came about because on February 26, 1946, the first group transport with 266 Hungarian Germans came from there to Süßen. (Compare flight and expulsion of Germans from Central and Eastern Europe 1945–1950 )
In addition, Süßen took over the sponsorship of Hladké Životice (see Životice (disambiguation) ) in 1962 .

Buildings
- "Historischer Brunnen" , erected in September 1981. The fountain depicts episodes from the history of Sussen. It was designed by Emil Jo Homolka , an artist born in Stuttgart in 1925. He used events from the local history that were presented at the parade for the 900th anniversary celebration in 1971 according to instructions from the district archivist of the Göppingen district, Walter Ziegler , a native of Süßen, including the deportation of Süßen Jews . Street names are also used to remember the two Jewish families, Ottenheim and Lang. A description of the individual stations can be found on the back of the nearby bus stop.
- Gothic Ulrichskirche with a tower with an onion roof from the first half of the 18th century. The Mount of Olives on the north facade was previously attributed to Jörg Syrlin's workshop in Ulm , but recent research has identified it as the work of the Adelberg Monastery sculpture workshop around 1510–1520. The work bears clear traits of the workshop of Tilman Riemenschneider , as can be seen especially in the treatment of the hair.
- Gothic Old St. Mary's Church with a faithful replica of a Romanesque lecture or altar cross.
- Parish Church of the Assumption of Mary (New Mary's Church) , expressionist building by Otto Linder from 1928–1929. The painting by Alois Schenk , whitewashed in 1971, was exposed again in 2006.

Tithe shy
Romanesque lecture or altar cross
The Romanesque lecture or altar cross in the Old Marienkirche dates from the second half of the 12th century and is the only surviving movable work of art from the Hohenstaufen- Romanesque period in the region around the Hohenstaufen . The expression on the face of the bronze Christ, in the manner typical of the Romanesque, does not express suffering, but rather the overcoming of death. Special features are the double rope crown, a loincloth reaching to the knees and the legs that are not crossed. The original, which was shown at the Stuttgart Staufer Exhibition in 1977, is in the church treasury of St. Marien in Süßen. The cross has been a sight on Staufer Street since 1977 .
