Stettfeld

The district Stettfeld was built around 120 AD at the intersection of major freeways Basel -Mainz and Augsburg -Speyer after the Rheintalstraße slightly eastward to the nearest safe from flooding hill Kraichgau ( " Strata Montana " "Mountain Road " ) was laid. However, the place was at that time not mentioned by name.

On a sand dune in today Stettfeld middle of the 2nd century was built on an area of five hectares a company specializing in brick and pottery large civil brickyard, which was excavated over a large area in the recent past by archaeologists. The fired in Stettfeld bricks bear the stamp of LPL. In this excavation site was found six boxes of yellow sandstone Sulzfelder Schilfsandstein.

Stettfeld 1241 is called the first time since the Roman period, when Bishop Konrad V. for the Bishopric of Speyer bought up the estates of Rudolph of Kislau in place. As the whole area came Stettfeld by the media coverage due to the Reichsdeputationshauptschluss circuit 1803 to the Grand Duchy of Baden.

In 1286 Zeutern received by a document of King Rudolf of Habsburg city rights. In this document dated June 13th, 1286 King Rudolf assured the Zeuterern protection and freedom. With this preferred treatment of the king hoped the active and industrious population would expand their village as a bulwark against the many enemies of the empire. The old village center was previously only secured by a makeshift wall and a ditch. However Zeutern not developed in line with the ideas of King Rudolf. His position did not allow urban development and the village Zeutern remained a village.
