history
In 1264, Count Ulrich I of Württemberg gave some land in Schornbach to the Adelberg Monastery in payment. The document about this business mentions the place name for the first time. The Lorch Monastery also owned goods on site, which Count Eberhard the Illustrious placed under Württemberg protection in 1293, with a distinction being made between Ober- and Unter-Schornbach. Schornbach was an agricultural, poor community whose main income was agriculture and viticulture . While 96 acres were still used for viticulture in 1853 , after the phylloxera disaster , at the beginning of the 20th century this was mainly replaced by fruit growing.
Mannshaupten was first mentioned in 1424. Until 1925, the hamlet of Kottweil, which is now part of the Berglen municipality , was politically part of Schornbach. On the occasion of the regional reform, Schornbach was incorporated into Schorndorf on January 1, 1975.
Church development
Originally, Schornbach was a branch of the Constance parish of Buoch . After the foundation of a chapel (1472), the cathedral chapter established its own parish here with the consent of Württemberg in 1496, which the chapter had to fill with a Württemberg resident. In addition to Constance, the Schorndorfer parish and the (Württemberg) winery also had shares in the tithe . The right of patronage did not come to Württemberg until the beginning of the 19th century in the course of secularization from the diocese of Constance via Baden .
In addition to Schornbach and Mannshaupten, the neighboring district of Buhlbronn , which has its own church building, also belongs to the parish today .
