history

Schöckingen 1682, forest inventory book by Andreas Kieser

Finds from the Neolithic indicate a settlement of the Schöckinger Markung since the 4th millennium BC. Between 550 and 380 BC. The area was probably under the influence of the Celtic settlement on the Hohenasperg . In today's town center, a richly furnished Hallstatt women grave was found in 1951 . At the time of its salvage, it was considered one of the richest women's graves in southwest Germany. Genetic studies have shown that those buried there were closely related to the Celtic prince of Hochdorf .

Around 80 BC Roman legionaries settled the region. Roman country settlements can be detected in three places on the marker. After the withdrawal of the Roman troops and settlers at the beginning of the 4th century, the resettlement was carried out by invading Alemannic family groups. The earliest Alemannic settlement in Schöckingen is dated to the 5th century. During the development of the “Grabenstückle” building area in 1972, a burial site from around 450 with 49 Alemannic graves was uncovered, which was used until around 750.

In 746 the Franconian caretaker Karlmann removed the Alemannic ducat and brought the region under direct Franconian sovereignty. In 814 the village of Schöckingen was first mentioned in the Lorsch Codex as a Skekinga on the occasion of the donation of a Hube and 26 serfs to the Lorsch Monastery .

In the High Middle Ages, Schöckingen was part of the Glemsgau , which was under the rule of the Counts of Calw in the 11th and 12th centuries and was temporarily under Guelph sovereignty after their extinction . Before 1181 it passed to the Count Palatine of Tübingen . Count Ulrich von Tübingen-Asperg sold his last possessions in Glemsgau to Count Eberhard I of Württemberg in 1308 , with the result that the sovereignty fell to the Counts of Württemberg.

The local rule was still held by the Counts of Vaihingen at the beginning of the 14th century . In 1344 Wolf and Brenmul von Osweil each owned half of the village as a Vaihingian and Württemberg fiefdom. Her family was wealthy in Schöckingen as early as 1300 and died out in 1390. Hans and Wilhelm von Kaltental , who had acquired a quarter and the Fronhof from the Lords of Venningen and were enfeoffed with it in 1414 and 1429 , also had a share . In 1430 Wilhelm and Hans von Kaltental sold their share to Hans von Nippenburg. Another quarter was owned by Jost Bürger in 1413 and passed to the Nippenburg family around 1430. In the 14th century, half of the village was held by the von Venningen, who in 1420 also owned the castle stables. Until 1485, the entire property gradually fell to the Lords of Nippenburg . When they died out in 1646, the village was moved to the Württemberg Chamber Estate. From 1651 to 1659 Schöckingen Castle was the widow's seat of Anna Sabina von Württemberg, the widow of Duke Julius Friedrich .

On April 11, 1660 Ulrich Albrecht von Gaisberg was enfeoffed with the castle. In 1718 Friedrich Albrecht von Gaisberg also received the village fiefdom, which included the parts of the earlier Nippenburg fief that had been retained by the duke. His income had previously been collected through the cellar in Leonberg. Associated with the village loan were the bailiwick and lower court in the village and mark, change, sacrilege and punishments, the humble hunt and a share of the citizens' money. Until the beginning of the 19th century, Schöckingen was regarded as vacant. The functions of the Oberamt were carried out by Gaisberg officials. Only since 1806 has the village been assigned to the Oberamt Leonberg .

The village had a decidedly rural character until after the Second World War . In addition to the full-time farmers, there were local artisans who usually operated part-time farming. Viticulture was also practiced until the second half of the 18th century. Field names such as Wengertgärtle or Young Vineyards are a reminder of this. Attempts to revive it in the 19th century have failed. In 1564 a brickworks is mentioned for the first time, which was closed after 1852. There were also several smaller quarries on Schöckinger Markung that supplied road gravel and stone, as well as a small mechanical fabric shoe factory in the village around 1900. It was not until after the Second World War that there were attempts to increase the settlement of industry and commerce on the northern outskirts. Ultimately, however, Schöckingen developed into a residential and commuter community.

In 1968 the number of inhabitants exceeded the limit of 1000 for the first time. On July 1, 1971, the formerly independent municipality was incorporated into Ditzingen.

Coat of arms and colors

Under a golden shield head, inside a black deer pole, in red a continuous silver cross, angled by four golden horseshoes. The stag bar testifies to the fact that the place belongs to Württemberg. The silver cross stands for the local saint Mauritius, while the four horseshoes were added to the coat of arms created in 1927 based on the earlier local seal. The horseshoes probably go back to an old mark .

On March 2, 1956, the local council determined white-red (silver-red) as the local colors .

education

The beginnings of the school system in Schöckingen go back to the introduction of the Reformation in Württemberg (1534). The school opposite the rectory later became the new town hall. Since then, the primary and secondary school students have attended a joint school with the neighboring town of Hirschlanden ( Theodor-Heuglin primary and secondary school). Realschule and grammar school are located in the Glemsaue school center in Ditzingen.

religion

The Mauritius Church

Schöckingen only became Protestant in 1599, after the Augsburg religious peace had come about in 1555 and every prince had the right to introduce the religion he preferred in his country. Since the local rulers determined the denomination for their subjects, the Reformation only came about after a hunting crime in the ducal forests of Martin von Nippenburg . As a punishment, the fiefdom was withdrawn on August 25, 1598 and this was confirmed again on October 18. Finally, the duke gave in in December 1598 and gave the fiefdom to the four sons of Martin von Nippenburg. Duke Friedrich I made the requirement to abolish the mass priest within a month and to appoint the Lutheran pastor Johann Vischer from Reichenbach as the first Protestant pastor in Schöckingen.

On March 25, 1599, the first Protestant pastor moved into the parsonage built in 1594 for the Catholic pastor. The Lutheran pastor Johann Vischer started the Reformation in the village, which had 110 inhabitants at the time.

The Mauritius Church , consecrated in 1267, was only converted into a Protestant church in 1629, a pulpit was erected and two galleries were added. Since then it has been subordinate to the Evangelical Church in Württemberg. A modern church in Hirschlanden is available as a place of worship for the Catholic residents of the village.
