Hospital

Highlight • Historical Site

The local branch of the Order of the Holy Spirit was consecrated in 1297. The former benefice, now known as the hospital, served to care for the elderly and sick and was built in 1509. The hospital cellar below, which is now known for family celebrations and club events, was built in 1507.

After the Reformation, the sovereign took possession of the hospital in 1534. The benefice continued until the Battle of Nördlingen in 1634. After that, the outbreak of the Thirty Years' War in southwest Germany brought economic, social and community life to a standstill. In the 18th and 19th centuries, the benefice was a municipal poorhouse, which had to be financed using the former hospital property.

The discussions about renovating or demolishing all the buildings, especially the former benefice, dragged on for decades. It was only economic stimulus programs from 1975 onwards that enabled the city to renovate it. The northern part was occupied in 1978 and the southern part in 1981.

The 42-meter-long building now houses the council meeting room, club rooms, the youth music school and the city library in the south wing. Here, on the publicly accessible first floor, the ceiling beams and posts show the former room layout with the benefice rooms accessed from the central corridor.

The mill was first mentioned in 1350 under the name "Hartungsmühle". In the years that followed, their names changed several times. The mill was demolished in 1815 and rebuilt again. It received its present name Talmühle in 1830. The mill is still in operation today and there is a mill shop.

Kleinaspergle Burial Mound

Highlight • Historical Site

The Kleinaspergle grave is still clearly visible on the ridge between Asperg and Möglingen. It was explored in 1879 by Oskar Fraas in a spectacular mining tunnel excavation. The main chamber had been robbed of ancient treasures, but a richly furnished side chamber yielded unique finds that exceeded all expectations. The grave, enclosed by a wooden frame, measured 3 by 2 meters. As far as can be seen from the excavation reports and drawings, in the chamber, dated to 430 BC, lay a small pile of ashes, close to a ring, an iron belt buckle covered with gold sheet, a dozen rounded gold plates, and four gold sheet strips. On the other side of the pile of ashes, two Greek clay bowls and two striking golden drinking horn ends were found. On the eastern side stood four bronze vessels: a large basin containing a wooden bowl, a bronze spouted jug considered an outstanding example of Celtic craftsmanship, a vessel with two handles, and a ribbed bucket. A rectangular memorial stone was placed on the site of the former stele in 1938. The area around Kleinaspergle has been designated a landscape conservation area since 1966.

In 1964, during grading work on the site of what is now the private and inaccessible property at Teckstrasse 14 in the Grafenbühl residential area, a grave covered by a massive, partially destroyed set of stones was discovered. Under the direction of Hartwig Zürn of the State Office for Monument Protection, the entire mound was examined. The mound, which is no longer visible, is believed to have had a diameter of approximately 40 meters. The chamber had already been plundered in ancient times. Two gold-plated bronze brooches, remains of a drinking vessel, and two bronze lion's feet from a kettle frame were found. Fragments of an iron chariot, various objects made of amber, ivory, and bone. The most beautiful are two sphinxes carved from bone with amber faces. The grave is dated to 500 BC.

The Asperg Celtic finds are housed in the Württemberg State Museum in Stuttgart. In 2007, a replica of the spouted jug from Kleinaspergle was made and is on display in the city's premises.
