history

Unterlatt in 1923

Schlatt was first mentioned in 1263 as in inferiori villa Slatthe. In flocks forest on the Rhine in 1912, a Roman excavated Watchtower and has since eroded. In 1925 the remains of a villa rustica , a bronze bowl and a Mercury statuette were found. 875 existed the settlements Schwarzach (Swarza) and Hierolteswilare. The church of St. Peter in Schwarzach, mentioned in 1162, was part of the furnishings of the Paradies monastery, which was newly built there after 1253 . In 858 the Rheinau monastery owned goods and rights in Schlatt, around 1150 the Allerheiligen monastery , after 1250 also the St. Katharinental monastery and the Paradies monastery. The jurisdiction lay with the Vogtei Diessenhofen and from 1460 to 1798 with the city ​​of Diessenhofen .

In the Second Coalition War of 1799, Schlatt was in the battle zone of the Russians and French for a long time . The Austrians succeeded in crossing over the Rhine to the south in Schaaren near the monastery. A memorial plaque reminds of this today.

From 1803 to 1816, Unterschlatt belonged to the municipality of Diessenhofen.

In 1162 a chapel is mentioned in Unterschlatt, in 1275 a pastor is mentioned. Later it was subordinate to the parish of Stammheim . In 1714 a reformed church was built in Unterschlatt and in 1769 its own parish was created.

In addition to the three-part economy until around 1800, fruit and horticulture was carried out; in the 19th century a cheese dairy was established. From 1894, the Schaffhausen – Kreuzlingen railway line facilitated the industrial dismantling of the alumina layers. In 1922 the Keller-Ziegeleien AG started operations.
