history

Due to the district reform during the Nazi period in Württemberg from 1938 to 1973, the villages in the Aspach district belonged to the Backnang district . After the Second World War, the villages came into the American zone of occupation and thus to the newly founded state of Württemberg-Baden , which was merged into the current state of Baden-Württemberg in 1952. As a result of the district reform in Baden-Württemberg , Aspach became part of the Rems-Murr district in 1973.

Community merger

The large community of Aspach was re-formed on February 1, 1972 as part of the community reform in Baden-Württemberg from the previously independent communities of Großaspach, Kleinaspach, Rietenau and Allmersbach am Weinberg.

Districts

Allmersbach am Weinberg

Allmersbach has belonged to the Marbach Oberamt since 1811 and when it was dissolved in 1938 it became part of the Backnang district.

Großaspach

View over Großaspach from the west

Großaspach was first mentioned in the Lorsch Codex in the middle of the 10th century . It went to the Counts of Calw in the middle of the 11th century . Later the place belonged to the Counts of Löwenstein . In 1388 Messrs. Sturmfeder von Oppenweiler bought the place. But already in 1442 Ulrich von Württemberg acquired one half of the town. The rest fell to the new Kingdom of Württemberg in 1806 . The place was subordinated to the Oberamt Backnang and in 1938 came to the district of Backnang.

Kleinaspach

Kleinaspach was first mentioned in a document in 1357. At that time, the Lords of Lichtenberg sold the place to the people of Württemberg . There he belonged for a long time to the Bottwar District Office , with which he came to the Marbach District Office in 1810 . When this was dissolved in 1938, Kleinaspach fell to the Backnang district.

Rietenau

The suburb of Rietenau was first mentioned in a document in 1103 when it came to the Hirsau monastery .

Legal dispute over the sale of the municipality of Rietenau: In the second half of the 13th century there was a legal dispute lasting several years between the Hirsau Monastery and the Mariental Monastery in Steinheim , which concerned the sale of Rietenau and the associated patronage rights to the monastery in Steinheim. On October 6, 1262, the village of Rietenau and a farm in Benningen am Neckar are sold by Abbot Volland von Hirsau to the monastery in Steinheim. The sale of the municipality of Rietenau is not recognized by them. However, the prior B. of the Holy Sepulcher in Speyer decides that the purchase was legal and that Rietenau goes to the Steinheim monastery. The recognition of the rights of the Steinheim monastery is still refused. Thereupon, on October 15, 1265, the provost Otto von St. Wido in Speyer instructs the treasurer in Murr that if the community of Rietenau continues to fail, the community is to be solemnly excommunicated and an interdict is given to the community would prohibit acts of worship. On September 29, 1270, the sale of the community of Rietenau by Abbot Volland and the Hirsau convent to the Steinheim monastery was certified.

In the course of the Reformation, Rietenau came to Württemberg in 1564, initially to the church property, and from 1618 to the Marbach office. With the establishment of the Kingdom of Württemberg, Rietenau came to the Oberamt Backnang in 1806 , and since 1938 the district of Backnang.
