history
The beginnings of Tonolzbronn - like those of the main town Ruppertshofen - extend into the 9th / 10th. Century back. Up to the 12th century the development of the two places should have been the same. Only then did Ruppertshofen receive a sustainable development boost and grew from a hamlet to a village. The trigger for this was the reorganization of the Hohenstaufen estate, which Friedrich I of Staufen initiated and grandson Friedrich I (Barbarossa) continued.
A special feature of the community of Ruppertshofen is that the church is not in the main town, but in the suburb of Tonolzbronn. The church, built around 1500, is dedicated to St. Stephen. The Nikolaus Chapel is located in Ruppertshofen itself .
The lost place Wolfertshofen was between Tonolzbronn and Ruppertshofen.
At the end of 1944, at the end of the Second World War , the Nazi construction team Organization Todt set up a large construction site on the level between Seifertshofen , Steinenbach , Helpertshofen and Kemnaten , with the aim of building a 2.5 km long concrete runway for jet fighters of the Messerschmitt Me 262 type to build. Around 600 workers, mostly prisoners of war , were deployed, barracks were built in the surrounding villages and wooded areas were cut down. Due to the advance of the US Army, construction work was canceled on April 18, 1945.
