history
middle Ages
Tettnang was officially mentioned for the first time under the name "Tettinanc" in 882 in a document issued in Wasserburg by the large farmer Cunzo and the St. Gallen monastery . This confirmed the transfer of land in Cunzo's possession to the monastery in order to put it under its protection. However, the large farmer was allowed to continue to use the land against payment of interest, and he also had the right to buy back. Furthermore, one can read of the possession of two Huben (hooves) of Lindau Abbey. Between 1112 and 1154 a castle was built in Tettnang, which formed the center of a new county of Tettnang. Their count Kuno, mentioned in two documents by King Frederick I Barbarossa, suggested the settlement of the first ministerials . Tettnang came to Hugo I , the first Count of Montfort, via the county of Bregenz . His grandson Hugo III. When the county was divided, von Montfort received the areas around Tettnang and was therefore the founder of the so-called "Tettnang Line" . At the end of the 12th century he initiated the creation of a market in Tettnang, as the location on the Ulm-Ravensburg-Lindau highway appeared favorable. With the granting of market rights , a court became necessary that could pronounce the law in relevant disputes.
The market was the basis for the granting of town charter, which was formally concluded in a document issued by King Adolf von Nassau on December 1, 1297 . Hugo VI made an important contribution to this. During his studies in Bologna, he studied Italian municipal law, which was further developed at that time. The original of the document has not been preserved, only a few copies from the 16th and 17th centuries. After the Habsburgs had defeated Adolf von Nassau in the Battle of Göllheim in 1298 and took possession of the royal throne, King Albrecht I confirmed Tettnang's city privilege in 1304. In addition, he granted the right to a weekly market. Hugo III died in 1309; his son Wilhelm II inherited his territory and with it Tettnang. In the dispute for the throne between Frederick the Fair and Ludwig the Bavarian , he initially sided with the Habsburgs, but in 1319 defected to Ludwig. Therefore, the city was besieged in 1322 by the Habsburg Duke Leopold and completely destroyed. In 1330 Emperor Ludwig granted the privilege to restore the fortifications. After the reconstruction, the city of Tettnang faced another problem, as many Tettnang citizens fled to the neighboring imperial cities of Lindau, Ravensburg, Buchhorn and Wangen in order to secure more rights and privileges.
In order to counteract this problem, Heinrich IV. Von Montfort introduced an urban constitution in 1379 that granted more privileges for the citizens. In essence, it corresponded to the freedom letter of the Feldkirch line of the House of Montfort. It contained the assessment of taxes, a new inheritance law and the exemption from foreign courts. In the second half of the 14th century, various temporary city federations were created that were supposed to ensure peace in the country. Tettnang was part of the Swabian Association of Cities and the Association of Lake Constance Cities . The city charter was extended under Wilhelm V at an undated time in order to maintain the peace and order of the market. These developments and the creation of annual markets resulted in an economic upswing that went hand in hand with the revival of trade. After many disputes about borders and the distribution of rights with the city of Lindau, there was a major conflict between the two cities in 1429, which culminated in a siege of Tettnang and the murder of Wilhelm's illegitimate son.
After the death of Wilhelm V, his sons divided Montfort into three complexes: Tettnang, Rothenfels with Wasserburg and Langenargen , and Werdenberg with the Rhaetian possessions. Ulrich V (1440–1495) and his son Ulrich VII (1495–1520) therefore dedicated themselves to Tettnang, which had become the capital of the reduced county of Montfort-Tettnang. By consolidating the role of a citizens' council, the mayor and the ammann , they stabilized the city's self-government. Interested in art and therefore highly respected by the nobility, the two created the gate lock and the parish church of St. Gallus and emerged as the commissioner of the painter Bernhard Strigel . Emperor Maximilian I also paid tribute to the cultural boom with visits in 1499 and 1516.
Modern times
A peculiarity occurred after the death of Ulrich VII. For six years, his wife Magdalena von Öttingen , who is described as emancipated, held the position of city regent. After her death, Emperor Charles V enfeoffed her nephew Hugo XVI. with Tettnang. At the time of the Reformation , the Langenargener Urbanus Rhegius was particularly active in Tettnang, where he tried to publish his writings.
In 1780 the indebted counts ceded their possessions to Austria . The House of Austria annexed the city, including the newly formed imperial county Tettnang , which comprised a closed area on the central north shore of Lake Constance as far as Wasserburg , to the Swabian foothills . In 1805, with the Peace of Pressburg , Tettnang fell to the Kingdom of Bavaria , which established the Tettnang Regional Court . Tettnang came from Bavaria to the Kingdom of Württemberg five years later on the basis of the border treaty of 1810 . Now Tettnang became the seat of the new Württemberg Oberamt of the same name . In 1895, Tettnang was connected to the rail network of the Württemberg railway by means of a privately operated branch line from Meckenbeuren .
In the first municipal election to which women were allowed in Tettnang on May 20, 1919, the Tettnang housewife Maria Leuthi received 660 votes from the civil electorate and was a member of the Tettnang council until 1922. She was the only local councilor until 1946.
As a result of the administrative reforms in Württemberg during the Nazi era , the Tettnang District Office was renamed the Tettnang District in 1934 and transferred to the Friedrichshafen District in 1938 . After the Second World War, the district administration came back from Friedrichshafen to Tettnang in 1945. The city had fallen into the French occupation zone and was thus assigned to the newly founded state of Württemberg-Hohenzollern in 1947, which was incorporated into the state of Baden-Württemberg in 1952. The district of Tettnang became part of the Lake Constance district in 1973 as part of the district reform , Tettnang gave up its function as district town to Friedrichshafen.
The remains of the following castles are located near Tettnang: Altsummerau ruins , Drachenstein castle and Neusummerau castle ruins .

Religions
At the time of the town elevation, Tettnang also experienced a religious upswing. In addition to the people priest Gerboldus, who is mentioned for the first time in 1246, Hugo III determined. his son Hugo IV. for the spiritual career. Some ministerials followed this example. In addition to the Roman Catholic and Protestant churches , there is also a New Apostolic church , Jehovah's Witnesses and a free Christian community in Tettnang .
etymology
The name Tettnang is composed of two components. Tetto was a nobleman whose name is documented several times in St. Gallen documents. The second part wang is the earlier name for a field piece. So Tettnang means a field piece of the Tetto. When it was first mentioned in 882, the place was called Tetinanc , and in 1297 the name Dethenan appeared. Colloquially, it changed via Tetlang to today's form.
politics
Municipal council
The local elections on May 26, 2019 in Tettnang led to the result shown below:
mayor
The office of mayor is mentioned for the first time in 1469. The mayor was elected by the citizens every year at the suggestion of the Ammann and worked hand in hand with the council, which served as an administrative and judicial body. He also appeared as the Ammann's deputy and took on judicial tasks. The first mayor mentioned by name does not come down to us until 1537 - Hans Gerber's predecessors still "signed" documents with the seal (apparently this is also how later incumbents handled it, which is why their chronology has gaps). The mayor who has been in office since 2007 is Bruno Walter.
Administrative community
With effect from January 1, 1975, the city concluded an agreed administrative partnership with the community of Neukirch .
coat of arms
|
|
Blazon : "In silver a black dog jumping right with a red tongue, a gold collar and a gold ring on it." |
| Reasons for the coat of arms: The origin of the coat of arms of the city of Tettnang has not been clearly established. The heraldic animal, a jumping dog with a collar, was also on the seals of the Counts of Montfort, whose imprints from the 15th century have been preserved. However, this reference and the meaning of the coat of arms are controversial. It is particularly surprising that the coat of arms of the then most important municipality within the County of Montfort does not contain its three-lobed red flag, as do Tettnang's districts, for example. |
Relationships with other cities
-
Japan : The city friendship with the city of Oomagari in Japan arose at the end of the 1980s, because it was looking for a partner in Germany for its hop culture. Through the mediation of the former Minister for Federal Affairs Eduard Adorno , the mayor of Oomagari, Genosuke Mogami, visited Tettnang for the first time in 1978 and 1979. His successor then signed a friendship certificate on June 13, 1983 on the occasion of Tettnang's 1100th anniversary. Further visits and youth trips took place until 1994. However, these broke off due to the great distance and difficult access to the Japanese language. Nevertheless, there is still cooperation in the fields of hop processing and the electrical industry. -
France : After initially private and subsequent official contacts, a partnership document was signed with the French city of Saint-Aignan-sur-Cher on September 15, 1991 in Tettnang , with the aim of improving German-French friendship.

City library
The first idea to build a city library in Tettnang came up under Mayor Viktor Grasselli in 1975. The search for a location turned out to be complicated until the city acquired a building on Schloßstraße. On the recommendation of the Tübingen Monument Office, the architect Edgar Dick was commissioned with the planning. Since he died unexpectedly in 1985, Sebastian Geiger continued the work. He describes the building as follows:
“ Light, brightness, friendly atmosphere. This is the first impression we get when entering the city library . "
This impression is mainly created by the glass fronts, the half-open floors and many insights and views. The library was officially opened on October 15, 1989. Since then, in addition to lending books, it has also offered cultural programs through child and youth work and exhibitions by regional artists.
Educational institutions

Culture and sights

Museums
The city museum represents the city history of Tettnang. It was founded in 1955 by city archivist Alex Frick under the name Montfort-Museum as a small local museum, which focused on the Counts of Montfort. After many documents and finds had been collected, the museum opened for the first time as a permanent exhibition in 1961 in the gate lock. Despite the enlargement of the exhibition area, it was only sparsely furnished. Therefore, the number of visitors fell to around 300 visitors a year. For the 700th anniversary of the city charter in 1997, the building was completely renovated and refurbished. In addition, a new concept for the Montfort Museum was created to make it more attractive. During the renovations discovered artisans frescoes from the Renaissance that have been restored then and now form one of the main attractions of the museum. There is also a cabinet of curiosities , a room devoted to the shooting tradition and one that shows aspects of church history.
In the vicinity of the electronics school, a support association was founded in 2002 that maintains the Electronics Museum in Tettnang. The museum has numerous exhibits on the electronics companies that have grown in Tettnang, as well as on the history of electronic computing and sound and image storage. It is housed in the gate lock in Tettnang and is open together with the Montfort Museum.
The Tettnang Hop Museum shows the more than 150-year history of Tettnang hop cultivation: old devices and machines, lifelike scenes of working and living in the hop garden. The approximately four kilometer long Tettnang Hop Trail leads from the museum to the Kronenbrauerei. Under the motto “from farmer to brewer”, hikers and cyclists are initiated into the secrets and peculiarities of hop growing and beer brewing through information boards set up along the way.
Sports
The largest sports club is TSV 1848 Tettnang e. V. with currently around 2,700 members.
Buildings
The New Palace is one of the three palaces in Tettnang. Count Anton III. von Montfort commissioned the architect Christoph Gessinger, Benedictine friar from Isny, to design a new castle in 1712. Due to a large debt burden, the work, which was almost completed, was stopped after Count Anton's death in 1733. In a fire in 1753, a large part of the facade and interior decoration was damaged. The restoration work, which lasted until 1770, was mainly made possible thanks to financial help from Austria. The new castle owes its artistic rank to the plasterers and painters Joseph Anton Feuchtmayer , Käte Schaller-Härlin and Andreas Moosbrugger . The master builder of the Rococo works was Jakob Emele . After the land passed to Austria, the interior of the new castle was sold. The castle, which came into civil ownership, was not restored until 1960 to 1982 and has been largely open to the public since 1997.
The first evidence of a church consecrated to St. Gall can already be found in the first documents from the city of Tettnang. From the new building between 1410 and 1450, the Gothic tower can still be seen today. The current nave of the parish church of St. Gallus was built in 1860 when the previous Baroque building was demolished. After damage in the Second World War, the church was fundamentally renovated in the 1960s and 1990/91 and furnished with new works of art.
The Loreto Chapel in Tettnang, the oldest of its kind in Baden-Württemberg, is located in the street named after it in the south of the old town. The client for the votive offering was Countess Euphrosina von Montfort. Construction began in 1624 and was completed with the consecration in 1627. In 1902 the building was extended with a gallery . The interior decoration includes a neo-Romanesque altar on which there is a 1.4 m high Madonna figure from the 17th century. This can be dressed in different robes on the occasion of celebrations. Statues of St. Dominic and St. Theresa of Avila stand in two niches. After its construction, the chapel was initially used for masses, later it was converted into a rosary chapel. At the end of the 19th century, the sacristan's house housed a toddler school; today the church is only used for special occasions such as golden or silver weddings.
The St. Anna Chapel is the oldest sacred building in the city. It was donated in 1513 by Count Ulrich VII von Montfort . In 1812 it was sold by the church administration to the vinegar manufacturer Fidel Schmid for 226 guilders to cover the tower of the parish church of St. Gallus. In the following years, the condition of the chapel deteriorated more and more until it was refurbished and restored in 1971. Since then the chapel has been used again for regular church services. What is striking about the building is that the chapel lacks a bell tower. The ceiling consists of a late-Gothic ribbed vault , in the interior there is a gallery of the coat of arms of the House of Montfort, paintings by the donor couple and a gallery on which an organ is placed.

Regular events
The Montfortfest , which takes place on the first weekend in July, is the home festival of the city of Tettnang. It was introduced in 1949 as a children's and hop festival , the successor to the Tettnang Heimatwochen. The highlights of the event are the pageant , in which, in addition to disguised school groups and clubs, numerous horse teams take part, as well as the fireworks in the castle garden.
The Fasnet is celebrated in Tettnang according to the Swabian-Alemannic tradition . This originated in Tettnang in the 19th century. The first masked balls were recorded around 1836. Towards the end of the century, the “Narrhalla” guild of fools came into being and organized the first parade. Even then, her reputation was "Montfort - Jehu". After the carnival was idle during the First World War , the figure of the hop fool, which still exists today, was created in the interwar years. However, it was not until 1953 when a group of hop fools first appeared on Gumpigen Thursday. The hop fanatic wears a hare painted with hops and leaves, to which small bells are attached, and a wooden mask. His attribute is a wooden stick with a ring collar. In 1954, the hops fanatic, inevitably following the custom, drew the hop sow after him. Like the hop fanatic, the hop sow also wears a robe consisting of trousers, jacket and mask, decorated with hop leaves and tendrils. The single mask shows a pig's head. In 1959, at the same time as the Narrhalla was renamed the “Narrenzunft Tettnang”, the Red Spider, which can be recognized by its insect-like red mask and red umbrella. The Tettnang fool's guild joined the association of Swabian-Alemannic fools' guilds in 1965 . Further figures of the Tettnang carnival are the Gätterlet with a checkered hat and the Gickeler, who wears a simple rooster costume. There is also the women's carnival and the fool's parade on Carnival Tuesday. The Montfort Tettnang fanfare procession provides the musical entertainment .
The Tettnang Railway Festival took place for the first time in May 1976. The reason was the suspension of rail operations from Tettnang to Meckenbeuren. Since then, the festival has been held annually on the second Sunday in September by various associations, music bands and the city administration. The festival area extends between Lindauer Strasse and the New Palace. The attractions include live music, etc. a. a flea market, a motorcycle train, a mini steam train and a western train (mostly on the lawn in the lower castle park).
