history
The city of Neustadt was probably founded around 1250 by the Princes zu Fürstenberg or their predecessors, the Counts of Freiburg or the Counts of Urach or their vassals, the Lords of Hohenfirst. There is no certificate of establishment. According to tradition, a Hochfirst castle is said to have stood on the Hochfirst about 2000 m west of Neustadt. Investigations have so far not provided any evidence, nor is there any documented evidence of a Hochfirst castle , but a noble family with this name. The area around the Hochfirst, Lenzkirch and Urach Castle came to the Fürstenbergers via the Knights of Blumegg . In 1275 the city was designated Nova Civitas , 1294 Neuwenstadt, 1335 Neuwen -statt, 1630 Neostadium and 1650 New-Statt, before it later became Neustadt or Neustadt (Black Forest). From 1669 to 1806 Neustadt owned a Capuchin monastery . In 1817 large parts of the city were destroyed by a major fire. Watchmaking developed into a major industry in the city in the 18th century . In 1897 the construction of today's Neustädter Minster began , which is now the city's landmark. There were four previous buildings. Neustadt came to the Electorate of Baden in 1803 and initially belonged to the Baden district office , from 1863 to the regional commissioner district of Freiburg and in 1939 became the district town of the Neustadt district in the Black Forest, which was called the Hochschwarzwald district from 1952 .
Basic foods were scarce during World War I and shortly thereafter. In May 1919 there were the first local elections with active and passive women's suffrage , which resulted in four women in the citizens' committee . The mayor Karl Pfister († 1993 in Freiburg ), appointed in 1923, created and secured jobs. He achieved this through loans totaling 700,000 Reichsmarks , which he had obtained through negotiations with major banks from the USA, Switzerland and the Netherlands. Through further job creation measures such as B. Public construction projects around the time of the Great Depression he was able to keep the unemployment rate , which was 18% in the German Reich , at 12% in his area of responsibility.
This was followed by the rule of the NSDAP , which successively abused the local newspapers Der Hochwächter (1933) and the Echo vom Hochfirst (1935) for their own purposes and later closed them. Despite this influence, the party's share of the vote in the elections was always lower than in Titisee, where it was roughly the national average. In spite of this, the local NSDAP group moved into the town hall in 1933, occupied its balcony and set an example for some public figures by being removed from office or taken to the Ankenbuck concentration camp near Klengen . Blasius Müßle, who had become mayor at the time, was replaced in 1935 by the later district leader, Benedikt Kuner .
On February 24, 1945, the former municipality of Titisee, which had been expanded into a hospital location because of its accommodation capacity, was bombed in three waves by Allied air forces, killing 27 people on site. Before that, the community had been hit with eight dead in the first targeted air raid on the Black Forest on September 30, 1944. The community of Neustadt was also bombed several times, the worst on April 5, 1945.
