history

Parish before the merger in 1996

Siegershausen was first mentioned in 1227 as Sigehardishusin . Originally located in the Konstanzer Bischofshöri , from the late Middle Ages until 1798 the court of Siegershausen was under the episcopal-Constance upper bailiwick of Gottlieben . From 1364 to 1452 it belonged temporarily to the Lords of Roggwil .

Siegershausen was first to St. Stephan in Konstanz, then to Tägerwilen , and from the middle of the 13th century always to Alterswilen . After the Reformation in 1529, the few Catholics went to church in Bernrain . Since 1831 they belong to the parish of Emmishofen .

Already at the end of the 18th century there was the transition from grain cultivation of the three- part farming to the individual use of the brach-part and the common grazing was given up. In the 19th century there was a gradual transition to cattle and dairy farming. Despite the commissioning of the Mittelthurgau Railway in 1911, the village experienced little growth. Between 1967 and 1887 goods were amalgamated. Strähl Käse AG, the largest cheese dairy in Eastern Switzerland, has been producing locally since 1958.
