Zimmer is part of the municipality of Immendingen in the Tuttlingen district of Baden-Württemberg .

etymology

The place name rooms (in his first mention also Timbirn ) probably derives from the Proto-Germanic term * Timra 'and the Old High German word zimbar' from, which means timber , Timbered , building or room does. It is therefore to be understood as 'with the wooden houses' . The old English timber and the late Latin timbrium are also related.

geography

Geographical location

The small village with around 1,500 inhabitants is located in the valley of the Upper Danube below Hornenberg and Amtenhauser Berg in the north and the Katzensteig in the south on the Baaralb just a few hundred meters west of Immendingen on federal road 311 immediately east of Autobahn 81 . The Amtenhauser Tal is also part of the local area.

Local division

Zimmer can be divided into four areas according to the intersection of federal highway 311 (west-east) and Amtenhauser Bach ( Talbach ) (north-south). In the southwest towards the Danube and the railway line lies the old core area of ​​the formerly independent municipality, which is now known as the Unterdorf . In the northwest, on the slope of the Hornenberg, lies the upper village . At Amtenhauser Berg, in the northeast, is the Iltishalde residential area and in the southeast is the new development area Am Freizeitzentrum .

Away from the village - in the Amtenhauser Tal - are the Zinken Amtenhausen ( cloister courtyard ) and Talhof as well as Haus Säge .

history

antiquity

The Danube Valley Zimmers was early in history in the settlement area of ​​various Celtic tribes, such as the Latobics , Tulingers and Helvetians , who from 15 BC onwards. Were subjugated and romanized by the Roman Empire . As part of the later Roman province of Upper Germany , the valley lay on the Upper German-Raetian Limes until around 95 AD . From Brigobannis ( Hüfingen Fort ) the Donausüdstraße ( via iuxta Danuvium ) led along the Danube through what is now the district of Zimmer to Tuttlingen Fort and on to Constantinople . In 1917 the remains of a Roman manor from this period were examined in the Bilgösch district north of Zimmer. In addition, a second Roman villa (country house) was found in Wannenbuck at the upper end of the Amtenhauser valley .

middle Ages

The Benedictine Abbey of Amtenhausen.

After the withdrawal of the Roman legions, the Alemanni settled the local area. It can be assumed, however, that today'szimmer is not an original settlement from the time of the Alemannic conquest around the year 300, but rather grew out of a constantly expanding farm. When the village was founded, the communities of Immendingen , Hintschingen and Geisingen most likely had to cede land to rooms. This also explains why the neighboring communities mentioned had the right for centuries to graze their cattle on certain areas of Zimmer's land.

Due to conquests and reorganizations, the municipality belonged to the Franconian Empire from 502 , part of the Eastern Franconian Empire from 843 and to the Holy Roman Empire of the German Nation from 962 . During the time of the tribal duchies from 911 the settlement was in the Duchy of Swabia . There are grave finds from the 8th and 9th centuries.

In 973, Zimmer was finally mentioned for the first time as " Timbirn an der Tonow under Amptenhusen " in the list of donations of the Reichenau monastery . In 1102 the foundation stone of the Benedictine convent Amtenhausen was laid in the Amtenhauser Tal not far from the village , which was consecrated by the Bishop of Constance in 1113 and existed until 1808.

In other documents from the Middle Ages, the local aristocratic family de Cimbern or von Zimmer is mentioned from at least 1101 to 1268 (the knight Gerungus von Zimmer is known by name ), who were in the wake of the Barons von Wartenberg . The Counts of Sulz and Stühlingen in the 12th and 13th centuries, as well as the barons Reischach and Roth von Schreckenstein had further influence . After 1318 rooms came to the Fürstenbergers .

Early modern age

In the early modern period, the region was marked by numerous wars. Beginning with the Swabian War and the German Peasant War . During the Thirty Years War there was devastation by the Swedes in 1632 , which particularly affected the monastery. Hunger and plague were horrors and misfortunes for the population. During the Wars of Conquest of Louis XIV from 1654 to 1697, the War of the Spanish Succession (from 1704) and the First (from 1792) and Second Coalition War (from 1798) under Napoleon , the place and monastery suffered from looting, billeting and requisitions by French troops. In 1806 the Fürstenberg lands were added to the Grand Duchy of Baden .

Modern

Covered Danube bridge and Unterdorf in the 1950s

From 1807, Zimmer belonged to the Möhringen office , from 1844 to the Engen office and from 1936 to the district office and district of Donaueschingen . The place also suffered from the two world wars . During the last days of the war, several houses and the church were hit by aerial bombs and brought the front with all its horrors to the community. When the German troops withdrew, the covered wooden bridge over the Danube was blown up.

On January 1, 1971, Zimmer was incorporated into Immendingen and has been part of the Tuttlingen district since 1973.

Since the establishment of several new development areas in the 1970s, the district has grown from an average of 300 to over 1,400 inhabitants.

coat of arms

DEU Zimmer (Immendingen) COA.svg
Blazon : "In gold with a silver-blue cloud border, a red-tongued black bear's body"
Justification of the coat of arms: The coat of arms of the formerly independent community Zimmer was designed by the State Archives in 1900, as no historical coats of arms or seals were known. The cloudy border comes from the coat of arms of the princes of Fürstenberg , to whom the area historically belonged. The bear is the symbol of the local patron saint St. Gallus and indicates the parish church of St. Gallus.
