Bärenthal

Beuron Abbey gained possession of Bärenthal in 1751. It became a possession of the Principality of Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen in 1803 and was assigned to Oberamt Beuren until 1820 and then Oberamt Wald until 1860. In 1938, the district of Wald was dissolved and Bärenthal was assigned to the newly-created Landkreis Sigmaringen. This district, too, was abolished in the 1973 Baden-Württemberg district reform and Bärenthal was placed in the newly-organized district of Tuttlingen. The village grew to about its present size in 1960 and has, since 1999, been the least-populated municipality in the district of Tuttlingen.
