Veinau is a hamlet in the Tüngental district of Schwäbisch Hall in the district of the same name in northeast Baden-Württemberg .

Surname

In the regional dialect the place is called Veinich [ ˈfəɪˌnɪç ].

geography

Veinau is located about four and a half kilometers northeast of the town center of Hall on the hilly Haller level , mostly on the low left slope of the Ölklinge , which runs westward here in a still shallow hollow , which shortly thereafter enters its wooded gorge valley, where it unites with the Diebach , which then soon flows northwards into the middle digester . Just a few houses and stables on and in front of the southern edge of the hamlet drain south to the Otterbach .

The rather rural-looking place with less than four dozen house numbers, including a number of courtyards with agricultural outbuildings that have been larger for a long time, stretches on both sides of a street parallel to the small stream and is surrounded all around by open corridors, in the large one Fields determine the picture. There is only forest in the form of a canyon forest of the narrow Ölklinge, which begins about 400 meters northwest of the outskirts, and in the form of a forest island, communal forest, about just as far east of the outskirts of the settlement there.

Veinau is touched in the west by the L 2218 Schwäbisch Hall - Crailsheim , old route of the federal highway 14 , which is still of considerable importance for traffic in the district. From this the village axis of the K 2572 branches off eastwards, which connects the hamlet with Tüngental. A small road of only local importance leads north-east to the neighboring hamlet of Ramsbach , another south to Altenhausen .

history

A castle belonging to the von Veinau family is documented in the “Streitbusch” in the 13th and 14th centuries. They were related to the chefs from Bielriet and were related by marriage to families from Schwäbisch Hall. The coat of arms of those of Veinau shows three red roses in a silver field with a green horizontal line in the middle as well as a crest and a swan.

In 1972 the place was incorporated into Schwäbisch Hall together with Tüngental and the other hamlets belonging to this: Altenhausen, Otterbach , Ramsbach and Wolpertsdorf .
