geography

Uttenhofen is about five kilometers south of the district town of Schwäbisch Hall as the crow flies on the flat ridge between the deep shell limestone valley of the Kocher , which meanders northwards in the east and the shallower basin of the Bibers, which strives south-east to the Kocher valley in the west of the village . The surrounding flat hilly landscape is called the rose garden , it is part of the inner step-edge bay of the Kocher emerging from the Keuperberge, which is surrounded almost in turns by rougher forest mountains.

The federal road 19 runs through Uttenhofen on its section from Schwäbisch Hall to Gaildorf in the south. In this direction, the largest suburb of Westheim begins less than half a kilometer after the local border . In the west, about a kilometer away, is the almost equally large suburb of Rieden .

In the post-war period the new development areas Hummelsweg , Häuslesäcker and Schollenäcker were built .

history

A historical form of the name is Uttenhoven (1338). It probably goes back to a personal name. From the year 1338 citizens from Schwäbisch Hall (von Tullau , von Sanzenbach, Stieber, Swob) are occupied with property in Uttenhoven. In 1451 Heinrich Berler acquired nine properties from the Palatinate as fiefs. This apprenticeship probably comes from Weinsberger and the Hohenstaufen family. After 1516 Schwäbisch Hall completely acquired the entire village and in 1637 established a "Wöhrzoll" site. In 1741 a major fire destroyed 41 buildings. A previous fire mentioned in the literature, which occurred on October 21, 1572, also destroyed 41 buildings. Uttenhofen was subordinate to the Schwäbisch Haller Amt Rosengarten and came to Württemberg in 1802/03. The Sigismund Chapel was "built around 1400."

On January 1, 1972, Uttenhofen, Rieden and Westheim were merged through the regional reform in Baden-Württemberg to form the new municipality of Rosengarten.
