history

The first written mention of the Vötschenhof took place in 1432 under the name Fetzenhof , when the Teutonic Order sold the homestead to the imperial city of Dinkelsbühl . In 1619, the homestead was referred to as Fetschenhof in another mention , but only a little later it was destroyed in the Thirty Years' War . Otherwise, the village essentially shared the historical fate of Leukershausen , with which it was always politically closely linked. Along with this village belonged to the yard area by the end of the Holy Roman Empire to Oberamt Crailsheim of Brandenburg-Ansbach Principality of Ansbach . When the Kingdom of Bavaria forcibly took possession of the principality in 1806 , it became temporarily Bavarian, but four years later it came into the possession of the Kingdom of Württemberg with the border treaty between Bavaria and Württemberg . With this contract, the village, which was only rebuilt in 1860, later became a border town and the current state border between Baden-Württemberg and Bavaria runs just 100 meters east of the Vötschenhof. As a result of the administrative reforms carried out in the Kingdom of Württemberg at the beginning of the 19th century, the place became part of the independent rural community of Leukershausen, which also included the hamlets of Bergertshofen , Haselhof , Selgenstadt and Waidmannsberg . Vötschenhof has been part of Kreßberg since 1973, after this entire community was reorganized from the previously independent communities of Leukershausen, Marktlustenau , Mariäkappel and Waldtann as part of the municipal territorial reform . In 2018 the Vötschenhof had two residents.
