In Breitenholz, Entringen, Poltringen and Altingen gypsum was mined, but now only the gypsum quarry in Altingen is in operation. In the northern Schönbuch, but also in Breitenholz sandstone was broken since 1383.

Municipality arrangement


The municipality Ammerbuch consists of the six districts (Teilorte):

Castle Ammerbuch-Pfäffingen
Castle Ammerbuch-Pfäffingen

Except for the districts Entringen and Pfäffingen, the districts are villages (Ortschaften) according to the municipal code of Baden-Württemberg, which each have a local council and a mayor as its chairman.[4] The castle Hohenentringen belongs to the district Entringen.


Climate


Ammerbuch is dominated by pleasantly mild climate, in some places part-time winemakers grow grapes. Ammerbuch is located near the earthquake zone of the Hohenzollerngraben (Hohenzollern-trench).


History


The oldest evidence of a settlement in the Ammer Valley goes back to the Neolithic period. Tools, huts and tombs have been found on the Kirchberg in Reusten, and their age is estimated to be about 6,000 years.

In Pfäffingen, Entringen and Poltringen there are foundations of Roman estates. A Roman road, which was later known as King Street or Ammer Valley road, led from Sumelocenna (today Rottenburg am Neckar) via Unterjesingen, Poltringen, Reusten and Altingen to Herrenberg and continued to Portus (today Pforzheim). From 84–260 after Christ the Ammer Valley was dominated by the Romans before they were ousted by the Alemanni.

In the 3rd century, Alemanni originating from northern Germany settled in the Ammertal and on the Schönbuch slopes. Probably in the 5th or 6th century the six villages arose that now form Ammerbuch. The County Palatine of Tübingen sold their possession in 1293 to the Bebenhausen monastery. Their seat was the Roseck Castle, above Unterjesingen at the edge of the Schönbuch.

After the dissolution of the monastery Bebenhausen 1534/35 the villages came for the most part to the Duchy of Württemberg and became Protestant. In 1699 Pfäffingen came to Württemberg, the half of Altingen, two-thirds of Poltringen and part of Reusten came in Austrian possession and were partly Catholic as part of Further Austria.

1806 Napoleon I. rewarded Württemberg for his allegiance. The further Austrian parts around Rottenburg fell to Württemberg. The villages were administered since 1808 by the Oberamt Herrenberg. In the reorganization by the Nazis in 1938, they fell to the district of Tübingen.

Ammerbuch was founded on 1 December 1971 in the context of the local government reform by the merger of the municipalities Altingen, Breitenholz, Entringen, Pfäffingen, Poltringen and Reusten.
