The village of Bierlingen and the Neuhaus homestead belong to the former municipality of Bierlingen. The former municipality of Börstingen includes the village of Börstingen with the castle ruins of Siegburg Castle and the houses at the Eyach train station, carbon dioxide plant, Lohmühle (today according to the Eyach sign) and Wilhelmshöhe. The village of Felldorf and the Honorsmühle, which was demolished in the 1990s and rebuilt in 1810 and named after its builder, are located in the area of ​​the former municipality of Felldorf.

history

Until the mediatization in 1805, the five formerly independent communities of Starzach were under the rule of imperial knight families. Bierlingen, Felldorf and Wachendorf were ruled by the Barons von Ow, among others, with their seat in Wachendorf Castle , Börstingen and Sulzau belonged to the dominion of the Weitenburg , which in the 18th century was with the Barons Raßler von Gamerschwang after many changes of ownership. In 1805 the localities came under the authority of the Electorate of Württemberg , from which the Kingdom of Württemberg emerged in 1806 . With the implementation of the new administrative structure , the five villages were assigned to the Oberamt Horb .

As a result of the district reform in Württemberg during the Nazi era , the villages became part of the Horb district in 1938 . In 1945 they became part of the French zone of occupation and therefore came to the newly founded state of Württemberg-Hohenzollern , which was incorporated into the state of Baden-Württemberg in 1952.

The community of Starzach was formed on January 1, 1972 from the three communities of Bierlingen, Felldorf and Wachendorf. The name Starzach was derived from the two rivers Starzel and Eyach . On June 1, 1973, the smallest suburb of Sulzau came to Starzach and on February 1, 1974, Börstingen completed the new community after a referendum.

The five districts came as part of the district reform on January 1, 1973 from the dissolved district of Horb to the district of Tübingen.

The two rivers and five flowers - from the Sulzau coat of arms - for the five parts of the municipality can be found in the municipal coat of arms.

The seat of the municipal administration is in the district of Bierlingen.
