history

In the year 861, a document from St. Gallen reported for the first time about the hamlet of Kehrenberg, which belongs to this monastery, in today's municipality of Schlier. From 1056 a rich documentary tradition can be read in the code of tradition , the Rödeln and land registers of the Weingarten monastery . Around 1100 Duke of the Welf, Heinrich the Proud, gave two estates in Gessenried to Weingarten Monastery . Towards the middle of the 13th century, a considerable part of today's Schlier community belonged to Weingarten Monastery through donations and acquisitions. The first mention by name is in a contract from 1269 between the Weingarten monastery and the Truchsessen von Waldburg, where a knight Rufus de Sliere appears as a witness. At that time, the area belonged to several gentlemen, in particular to Weingarten Monastery, the Truchsessen von Waldburg and the Lords of Wildenegg, some farms to the Lords of Ankenreute and Richlisreute, a single farm to the Einsiedeln monastery and Kehrenberg to the St. Gallen monastery . From the end of the 13th century, most of these feudal estates came to the Weingarten Monastery as a gift or purchase.

In 1525 rebellious farmers camped in Schlier, which went down in history as Seehaufen , Allgäuer Haufen and Baltringer Haufen and also forced the feudal people of Weingarten Monastery to participate. Georg Truchsess von Waldburg-Zeil , better known as Bauernjörg , signed the Weingarten contract with them and thus avoided open battle. The almost surrender of the peasants nevertheless gave him the opportunity to live in the lowlands, e.g. B. in Böblingen to suppress the peasant revolts there all the more cruelly. The Galgenberg in Waldburg was the end of the line for the captured farmers. During the Thirty Years War , the area around Schlier was not only plundered by the Swedes, but also hit by several plague epidemics and famine. In a list of the Weingarten monastery from 1637, 130 surviving residents are named, in 1648 only 14 farms were left. Around 80 percent of the previous population no longer existed. In order to repopulate the farms, farmers are recruited from Switzerland, Tyrol and Vorarlberg, whose family names still tell of their origin. They seem to have been fruitful, because as early as 1690 many Schlier citizens emigrated as Danube Swabians mainly to Hungary and the Banat, later Yugoslavia. Among them is a Johann Broz, possibly an ancestor of Josip Broz Tito .

Looting by French and Russian troops was announced between 1791 and 1800, the Russian cemetery in the forest on the side of the road from Weingarten to Unterankenreute still tells us today that many Cossack and Tatar soldiers died in the Weingarten hospital. In the Reichsdeputationshauptschluss , Weingarten Abbey was awarded to the Prince of Nassau-Dillenburg as compensation for possessions on the left bank of the Rhine in Holland and Belgium. In 1806 the area was added to the (Protestant) Kingdom of Württemberg by Emperor Napoleon , which met with very little approval in the predominantly Catholic Upper Swabia. On June 12, 1812 Schlier became a royal Wuerttemberg community by royal rescript .

There were 61 dead after the First World War, 90 in the Second World War.

Religions

Like the entire surrounding area, Schlier is shaped by the Roman Catholic denomination. Until 1822 the inhabitants belonged to the parish Weingarten. The Roman Catholic parish of St. Martin in Schlier belongs to the Allgäu-Oberschwaben deanery of the Rottenburg-Stuttgart diocese and also includes the Unterankenreute branch parish. In addition to the two churches of St. Martin in Schlier and Mariä Himmelfahrt in Unterankenreute, there are chapels in Hintermoos (St. Sebastian), Unterankenreute (St. Sebastian) and Wetzisreute (St. Joseph and Georg, so-called Boserkapelle).

The Protestant Christians of the community belong to the parish Weingarten (Pfarramt Weingarten II) in the church district Ravensburg of the Evangelical Church in Württemberg .

coat of arms

The coat of arms was created in 1954, approved by the state government in 1955 and revised in 1987. The blazon reads: In silver a red lion, in the right upper corner in red a silver hand of oath .

The hand of the oath is intended to remember the Lords of Ankenreute, who once played an important role. The armored knight's fist reproduced in its coat of arms at the time was considered too martial in 1954 and therefore no longer in keeping with the times. The Guelph lion and the Guelph colors red and silver are a reminder of the centuries-long affiliation of the place to Weingarten Monastery, which was once founded by the Guelphs.
