Sinningen is a district of the municipality of Kirchberg an der Iller in the Biberach district in Upper Swabia .
location
The church village is located at the northern end of the district, in the plain of the central Illertal . The Iller runs immediately to the east. The Gießen, an old arm of the Iller, flows through the place.
history
Presumably the village with the name ending in "-ingen" was founded by a settler named "Suno" after the Alemannic conquest. On the opposite side of the Illers are the remains of the late antique cohort fort Caelius Mons . The place was mentioned for the first time in 1127 as "Sunnigin" with the local nobility, which can be proven until 1172. In 1182 the place was called "Sunningin". Via the Lords of Heimertingen and later the House of Freyberg, it came to the Ulm mayor Ludwig Krafft in 1376 , and later in 1436 half to the Ehinger patrician family of Ulm.
The right of patronage has been exercised by the Rot an der Rot monastery since 1356 . In 1541, the Ulm Ehinger reformed the Unterbalzheim they owned and built a church in Oberbalzheim in 1608 . In 1611 the Red Abbot Joachim Gieteler tried to forbid the Sinningen subjects from visiting the Oberbalzheimer church. In 1616 the monastery was compared to the Ulmer Ehingern. The Ehinger committed themselves to lend their goods in Sinningen only to farmers of Catholic denomination.
The place was first mentioned as a municipality in 1578. In 1806 he was incorporated into the Kingdom of Württemberg together with Kirchberg . In 1835, Sinningen regained its communal independence after it had been part of Oberbalzheim until 1820.
The suburbs Sägmühle and values belonged to the community. On January 1, 1972, the municipality was incorporated into Kirchberg an der Iller as part of the municipal reform.
