History

This section needs expansion. You can help by adding to it. (January 2024)

In 1973, the districts of Heilbronn and Hohenlohe were established. All villages, except for Brettach, were included in the Hohenlohe district and were later merged into Bretzfeld in 1975. Brettach was part of the Heilbronn district until 1977 when it was also incorporated into Bretzfeld, which was already part of the Hohenlohe district.

Adolzfurt was first historically mentioned in 1327 as "Adelhardtsfurth". The name probably comes from the male name "Adelhard". In the 13th century it was under the rule of Weinsberg until it was given to the Princes of Hohenlohe in 1336. In the same year, it was granted full city rights by Louis IV, Holy Roman Emperor. However, it never attained great importance, and in a document from 1350 it is again referred to as a village. From 1806 to 1812 the village was administered by Neuenstein. In 1812, Adolzburg became part of the Oberamt of Öhringen [de], an administrative region of Württemberg, which later became the Öhringen district [de] in 1938. Today it is the only village in Bretzfeld that has never been part of the Weinsberg Oberamt.[3]

Dimbach was first mentioned in 1289 as "Tindebach". It was under the rule of Weinsberg until 1311. It was then under the administration of Lichtenstern Monastery until Würtemmberg took over the region shortly after the Reformation. The church in Dimbach was also built around this time.[4]
