geography
Geographical location
Sigmaringendorf and the district of Laucherthal are located in the Obere Donau Nature Park , around five kilometers east of the district town of Sigmaringen . Here the Lauchert flows into the Danube . With a total of 340 hectares of forest area, almost 28 percent of the 1247 hectare municipal area is forested. Two thirds of it is softwood and one third is hardwood. The forest grows eleven cubic meters every day. The FFH areas of the EU designated in the municipality are located in the direction of Laucherthal to Hitzkofen and in the Luibentäle. In the Bitzehau there is a well-tended wet biotope, a retreat and habitat for endangered plants and animals. The community extends from 560 meters to 643 meters above sea level , the town hall as the center of the town is 569 meters above sea level.
geology
The community is located on the southern edge of the Swabian Alb . Two smaller elevations, which are partially populated, limit the community to the east and west. To the west, the Sturren separates Sigmaringendorf from Sigmaringen; to the east, the perennial forms the border with the Scheer urban area.
Neighboring communities
Sigmaringendorf borders Scheer in the east, Sigmaringen in the south and west and Bingen in the north. Sigmaringendorf also has a 44-hectare exclave in the area of today's quarry ponds between Krauchenwies and Zielfingen an der Ablach. This area borders on the municipal areas of Sigmaringen, Mengen and Krauchenwies.
Community structure
The community consists of the eponymous Sigmaringendorf and the district Laucherthal. The residential area located to the right of the Danube is popularly known as "Zizahausa", a term that goes back to the late 19th century: At that time, the timber merchant Gabriel Springer from Zizenhausen settled near the Danube bridge, but was always the "Zizenhausener" for the Sigmaring village. , a term that finally rubbed off on the entire district.

history
The first written mention of the place dates from 1249 in a document signed by Pope Innocent IV . Sigmaringendorf was therefore already its own parish at that time and had its own church, while Sigmaringen was still a branch of the Laiz parish .
Prehistory and early history
Settlement of today's municipality can be proven long before 1249. Settlement remains and archaeological finds date from the Hallstatt period, such as the Celtic ramparts in the west of Sigmaringendorf and burial mounds north of Laucherthal. A Roman road also ran through the municipality, the remains of the Villa Rustica at the ironworks in Laucherthal and a Roman ford at the mouth of the Lauchert into the Danube are evidence of the Romans . In addition, an Alemanni cemetery was excavated during construction work in the Scheererstraße industrial area in 1972 . In addition to skeletons, weapons and jewelry were also found. The place name is probably derived from the Alemanni "Sigemar".
Middle Ages and Modern Times
The place was in the early Middle Ages in the area of the Goldineshuntare , then in the Gau Ratoldesbuch and later in the county of Sigmaringen . With her it comes to Hohenzollern as an Austrian fief in 1535 . From the 13th century on, the landlord was the Mehrerau monastery near Bregenz. In 1826 his rights were replaced by the princes of Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen . In 1805 the Austrian feudal sovereignty expired.
Politically, Sigmaringendorf always belonged to the county of Sigmaringen.
In 1708 Prince Meinrad II built an iron smelter . Over the years, the “Fürstlich Hohenzollernschen Hüttenwerke” developed from this, and today, as Zollern -Werke, is the municipality's largest employer. The Laucherthal district was built around the ironworks , originally as a purely workers' settlement .
During the time of National Socialism , 1,700 foreign prisoners of war and civilian forced laborers manufactured armaments in Laucherthal under inhumane conditions. Civil labor camp 501 was set up specifically for this purpose . Eight men, one woman and nine children did not survive the years 1940 to 1945.
Population development
Since the first documented census in Sigmaringendorf from 1871, when 1507 people lived here, the population of the village has more than doubled. Compared to the year 1890, when only 1032 people lived in Sigmaringendorf, the population today has almost quadrupled in 2007 to 3761. After the male population in particular experienced a significant decline in the years of the Second World War, the number of inhabitants jumped in the 1950s and 1960s, from 2049 in 1946 to over 3000 in 1961. In addition to the general boom during the economic miracle The influx of guest workers for the Laucherthal ironworks also contributed to this . These were mainly men from Italy , Greece and Turkey . In the 1961 census, which for the first time shows foreign residents separately for Sigmaringendorf, 142 people (120 of them men) are listed as not of German nationality, ten years later this number had almost doubled to 270. The population of Sigmaringendorf grew continuously until 1997 (3747 people) and after a slight decrease at the turn of the millennium in 2004 it reached the previous high of 3794 people.

Before that, until 1840, the heads of the community of Sigmaringendorf carried the official title of mayor , and one or two mayors were subordinate to them. Gerold Speh, who took office in 1901, was the first mayor in Sigmaringendorf entitled to a pension .
coat of arms
The coat of arms of Sigmaringendorf shows a divided shield, divided at the top by red and gold diagonally to the left, above a golden hammer and golden mallet crossed diagonally, below a lying red ploughshare, in the red lower half of the shield a standing golden stag. The golden stag is the heraldic animal of the county of Sigmaringen, ploughshare on the one hand, hammer and mallet on the other hand symbolize the originally agricultural core town of Sigmaringendorf, or the workers' settlement of Laucherthal, which was shaped by the ironworks.
Parish partnership
The community Sigmaringendorf maintains partnership relationships with the city of Rafaela in Argentina , which was founded in 1881 by Wilhelm Lehmann , who was born in Sigmaringendorf . The partnership relationships began in the mid-1970s, when historians from Rafaela were looking for the origins of their city founder. The partnership was sealed during the tenure of Mayor Alois Maucher in 1979 with a reception for the first group from Rafaela. In 1981 the then mayor Juan Carlo Borio and his wife came to visit Sigmaringendorf and mayor Alois Henne also traveled to Rafaela with his wife. For the 100th anniversary of Rafaela, a large delegation from Sigmaringendorf stayed in Rafaela for the celebrations. The text of the certificate with which the partnership was sealed reads:
“Inspired by the desire to make the friendly ties between the city of Rafaela and the community of Sigmaringendorf even closer and more cordial, in the hope of honoring the merits of the founder of the city of Rafaela, Mr. Wilhelm Lehmann, and in the expectation of ours To contribute to international understanding, the community of Sigmaringendorf takes over the sponsorship for the city of Rafaela "
The certificate was signed by the then mayor Alois Maucher on May 28, 1979. The godfather was the governor of Santa Fé and a representative of the German embassy from Buenos Aires.
The municipality of Sigmaringendorf gave Lehmann its name in honor of the square near the town hall.
Culture and sights
Sigmaringendorf is part of the "Upper Swabian Danube" tourist region
theatre
At the end of the village in the direction of Rulfingen is the open-air theater Waldbühne Sigmaringendorf - an idyllic natural stage in the forest. With a good 10,000 visitors annually, this is the main tourist attraction of the municipality. Every year two different plays (children's group, adult group) are performed by volunteer amateur actors.
museum
In September 2009, a mining museum was opened in the Laucherthal district on the site of the Princely Hohenzoller Ironworks in the listed blast furnace building.
music
In the ironworks in the Laucherthal district there is one of the few remaining factory or hut chapels , the Laucherthal hut chapel . It is a nearly 30-piece wind orchestra that appears in miner's uniform. The Sigmaringendorf Music Association was founded in 1872, but according to the community's chronicle it goes back to 1808, so making music in an ensemble has a history of at least 200 years in Sigmaringendorf. After many years of rivalry between the two bands, they performed together for the first time in 1990. There is also a men's choir, a fanfare parade, a church choir and smaller musical ensembles in Sigmaringendorf. In the period between the world wars, there was an amateur string orchestra here that was well known in the region.
Churches
The parish church in Sigmaringendorf (from 1317) is consecrated to St. Peter and Paul . The tower is Gothic, the nave from 1611. The church has had its current shape since 1852. It is equipped with a stucco ceiling, a rococo painting by Andreas Meinrad von Ow , and a Gothic Vespers picture. In the district of Laucherthal is the church of Saint St. Meinrad (built in 1958). There is also a small chapel, the so-called Bruck Chapel, near the cemetery. Another small chapel, the Bohlkapelle, had to give way to the expansion of the B32 in 1962 and was demolished. The community of Sigmaringendorf is predominantly Catholic ; in addition to the two church buildings mentioned, there are also group rooms in the rectory and the Catholic parish hall. The parishes belong to the dean's office Sigmaringen-Meßkirch in the Archdiocese of Freiburg . The Protestant Christians celebrate their services in the Bruck Chapel or in the churches in neighboring Sigmaringen. There is a building of the New Apostolic Church on Hüttenberg .
building
In the district of Laucherthal, the remains of a Roman estate were found in 1866 ( see: Villa Rustica (Laucherthal) ). At the railway bridge over the Lauchert is the Ratzenhofen castle , often called the Schlössle . The building was first mentioned in 1542, but is likely to be significantly older. In the 20th century it was used for some time as part of the Sigmaringdorf School, today it is mainly used by local associations for their purposes.
The town hall on Wilhelm-Lehmann-Platz (named after the founder of the Argentine city Rafaela who was born here) was built between 1884 and 1890. For this purpose, the existing "Schöb'sche Schmiede" was bought and the course of the Lauchert was relocated. In 2007 it received an extension. Opposite the town hall on the other side of the Lauchert is the fire station, in whose large hall on the upper floor many community events, including public meetings of the community council, as well as celebrations of clubs take place. The building was built from 1978 to 1979 in place of the former tithe barn .
The Donau-Lauchert-Brunnen on the square symbolizes the confluence of the two rivers in Sigmaringendorf.
In the center of the village is the community-owned hotel and guest house Hirsch with the attached festival hall, which opened in 1962 and was rebuilt, renovated and finally renamed Donau-Lauchert-Halle from 1998 to 1999 .
Natural monuments
The townscape is characterized by the 16 meter high village linden tree opposite the town hall.
Sports
The TGW group (Turnen - Gymnastik - Wettkampf) of TSV Sigmaringendorf gained national fame as multiple Württemberg champions and third place at the German championships. The group was also one of the German representatives at the World Gymnaestrades in Lisbon 2003 and Dornbirn 2007 . TSV Sigmaringendorf, which was founded in 1908, has 1,300 members (divided between the gymnastics, football, athletics and skiing departments) and is the largest club in the town and, in relation to the number of inhabitants, also one of the sports clubs in Baden-Württemberg with the largest number of members.
Since September 30, 2010 there has been a new sports club in Sigmaringendorf, the "SportClub Sigmaringendorf / Laucherthal eV" After six months the association already had over 300 members.
In 2001, a large adventure playground was created in the castle garden behind the school buildings as part of the 72 hours without compromise campaign by young people from the KJG Sigmaringendorf, which is still maintained by the young people and the community and is a frequent destination for children's groups and school classes in the vicinity.
Regular events
Since 1979 there has been a big street festival in Sigmaringendorf every second weekend in September. This event is particularly worth mentioning because almost all of the community's associations take part, but donate the majority of the proceeds for a purpose that serves the common good. This means that the association's boards decide year after year who should benefit from the proceeds (club houses have already been built, uniforms have been bought and much more). The Sigmarendorfer street festival is also known beyond the borders of the municipality for the Donau-Lauchert-Bimmelbähnle, a small festival railway for children that is pulled by a tractor converted into a locomotive. The very first street festival in 1979 took place on the initiative of the gymnastics and sports club, which wanted to finance the expansion of the local gymnasium.
Since 1980, on the second weekend in October, an earlier two-day, now mostly one-day wine festival has been held in the Donau-Lauchert-Halle, organized by the community's music association. An annual senior afternoon was set up as early as the 1950s, on the occasion of which the local cultural associations and churches hold an entertaining Advent celebration for the elderly in Sigmaringendorf and Laucherthal at the end of November. On the morning of May 1st, an instrumental group wakes the residents of the community from six o'clock in the morning with so-called 'Tagwacht' games from various elevated places around the village. As in many other municipalities in the region , a bonfire is burned in Sigmaringendorf on the Sunday of the Spark , the Sunday after Ash Wednesday . Since the 1990s, this has been done under the direction of the youth fire brigade on the perennial, a hill in the east of the community.
movie theater
The "Bambi-Lichtspielhaus" opened in 1956 on Laucherthaler Strasse was closed again in 1964 due to a lack of profitability. In the 1990s, the Waldbühne was occasionally used as an open-air cinema.
regional customs
Carnival
Carnival plays a major role in community life, there are several associations that are dedicated to foolish customs. The most famous are the straw men , in which a villager wrapped in straw has been symbolically driven out of the village for 500 years, and the Dorfer Fasnachtslied ( Dorfer Lied ), which was composed in 1958 by Hans Bumüller:
“Yes, that's how it is with us in the village, in the village, in the village, yes, that's how it is with us in the village, in Semmerengadorf. In the village, where my cradle was, on the Danube and on the Lauchertstrand, where it's beautiful Leit, woman and ma ', where oiner au the other ma'. "
The carnival guild in the district of Laucherthal is also called 'melt' (after the iron melt that founded the district), which is expressed in the fool's cry "melt - Narro" and in the Laucherthal carnival song, also texted by Bumüller, "melt, melt, oh you old melt". The Sigmarendorfer Fasnacht is traditionally opened a week before Carnival Sunday with the "single file", during which single boys of the village march through the village with musical accompaniment under an annually changing motto. The school exemption , the planting of the fool's tree and the straw man driving take place at the Schmotziga , the fools symbolically take over the key to the town hall. On Carnival Saturday, the single society organizes the citizens' ball in the festival hall. On Shrove Sunday in Laucherthal and on Shrove Tuesday in Sigmaringendorf the traditional bridal ceremony takes place, where new citizens, newlyweds and anniversaries are carried through the town on poles, accompanied by a carnival society and a band. This custom has a tradition of over three hundred years in Sigmaringendorf, as it probably goes back to the time after the Thirty Years' War .
Egg reading
On Easter Monday, the traditional egg reading takes place in Sigmaringendorf: young people of the ninth grade from the community compete against each other in a race: One runner runs on a set course from Sigmaringendorf to the neighboring town of Scheer and back, while a second runs 100 raw according to a certain rule Collect eggs on the sports field and throw them into a grass catcher with as little damage as possible.
Others
On New Year's Eve afternoon, the so-called “Paschen” takes place, a game of dice in which a group of players throws the dice around a ring of white bread, which the winner receives.

The Public transport is by the Verkehrsverbund Neckar-Alb-Donau guaranteed (NALDO). The community is located in honeycomb 441.
railroad
The Sigmaringendorf train station , today only a stop , is located on the Ulm – Sigmaringen railway line, which opened in 1873 . The station is served hourly by Regional Express and Interregio Express trains on the Sigmaringen –Ulm and Neustadt (Schwarzw) –Ulm routes. In addition, a branch line of the Hohenzollerische Landesbahn branches off in Sigmaringendorf . This leads in a northerly direction and was opened in 1900 (initially only to Bingen) and extended to Gammertingen in 1908, but is now only served by freight traffic.
In the first half of the 20th century, four railway lines existed in the district: In addition to the still active these were the routes Radolfzell quantities ( hegau Ablachtal-Bahn ), whose northern section was Stockach amounts 2,005 disabled and Krauchenwies-Sigmaringen by Josefslust (opened in 1873), of which parts of the railway embankment and a bridge have been preserved. The Radolfzell – Mengen line had no stop in Sigmaringendorf, the one from Krauchenwies to Sigmaringen only had one stop at the then Josefslust station (closed around 1960) on the municipality's territory.
Since 2000 Sigmaringendorf has been a stop again with 38 daily entry and exit options (routes Tübingen – Aulendorf and Ulm – Neustadt).
Streets
The place is on the federal road 32 and on the state road 455.
Bike paths
Sigmaringendorf is located on the Swabian Alb Cycle Path , a long-distance cycle path that leads from Lake Constance to Nördlingen across the entire Swabian Alb. In addition, the Danube Cycle Path leads through the municipality.
Established businesses
Sigmaringendorf offers around 1,600 jobs in the industrial and service sectors. Mainly companies in metal finishing, precision wire weaving, forming technology for metals, mold making and plastic parts are located here. Prince Meinrad II founded an iron smelter in Laucherthal in 1708. Today's Zollern GmbH & Co. KG developed from this with 3,000 employees worldwide. It is the oldest company in town. There are also several medium-sized companies, including Holzhauer GmbH & Co. KG , Chrom Schaal and Spörl Drahtweberei , whose products, in particular air filters, were involved in the US Apollo 11 and Apollo 16 space missions .
education
There is a primary school in Sigmaringendorf. Until the end of the 2007/2008 school year, the community maintained a primary and secondary school, which was also attended by the students from the neighboring community of Bingen. Due to the declining number of pupils, however, the main school was closed in 2008, and since then the young people of the community have had to move to Sigmaringen for all secondary schools. Before the main school closed, school operations were spread over four school buildings: One was the elementary school in the Laucherthal district, three buildings are in the center of Sigmaringendorf. One of these three is the historic Schlösschen Ratzenhofen, also called "the Schlössle" in the community. The operation of the primary school in Laucherthal was also stopped in the course of the closure of the secondary school, so that now all primary school students in Sigmaringendorf go to school. The “Schlössle” has also not been used for school purposes since then.
There is a kindergarten in each of the two districts . After the establishment of crèche places for toddlers, both have been called "Kinderhaus" since 2008. From 2009 there will be 160 places available, 28 of which are for small children.
There is also a municipal education center.
Local heating network
In accordance with resolutions of the Sigmaring village council in 2008 and 2009, a local heating network was set up in Sigmaringendorf from 2009 , which, when it went into operation in 2010, made it possible to heat nine municipal and three church buildings from a common wood pellet heating system. The local heating network was created as an in-house operation of the municipality, which uses around 75% of the heat generated. In a ratio of 75 to 25, the costs were accordingly divided between the political and the church community. The Archbishop's Ordinariate Freiburg , to which the parish of St. Peter and Paul Sigmaringendorf belongs, spoke of a "model form of cooperation for a common energy supply". The community hopes that the new heating system will save 40,000 euros in fuel costs and reduce CO 2 emissions by 200 tons per year. In addition to the school and school sports buildings, the festival hall, the fire station, the children's house and the Hotel Hirsch, as well as the parish church, the parish and the parish hall of the Catholic parish will also belong to the local heating network.
