Hilzingen

Tucked into the volcanic hills of the Hegau near the Swiss border, Hilzingen is a place whose character is shaped by the ancient volcanic geology of southern Baden-Württemberg. The village belongs to a region marked by prominent former volcanoes, including Hohenstoffeln and Hohentwiel, whose steep profiles distinguish the countryside around Singen. Hilzingen also has a place in the German Peasants’ War: the Battle of Hilzingen was fought here in 1525 between peasant forces and troops of the Swabian League. Today it is a rural community in the Hegau, within the wider southern German setting of Lake Constance and the Black Forest.
