Hohentannen is a municipality in Weinfelden District in the canton of Thurgau in Switzerland. Hohentannen is first mentioned in 1256 as Hontannon. In 1275 it was mentioned as in Hohentannun. From the Middle Ages until 1798, the lower courts were granted as a fief by the Bishop of Constance to Heidelberg. Hohentannen, Sitterdorf, Heidelberg and Oetlishausen all belonged to the parish of Bischofszell. In 1812 Heidelberg and Oetlishausen joined the municipality of Hohentannen, followed in 1874, by the hamlet of Hummelberg. Hohentannen was formerly on the Sulgen-Bischofszell road, but since the road moved into the valley in 1823 the village has been located off any major road. Agricultural and viticulture were replaced at the end of the 19th century by cattle and dairy farming. By 1900, small embroidery businesses were common in the village. Today, the gravel pits are a source of income. Despite the construction of single-family houses Hohentannen has preserved its character as a farming village. More information...
