Geschichte des Landstädtchens ElggIm Jahr 760 schenkte Aimo dem Kloster St. Gallen Gter in Elgg und liess dazu ein Urkunde ausstellen, die den Ort im Eulachtal zum ersten Mal erwhnt. Damit schliesst die schriftliche berlieferung nahtlos an aussagekrftige archologischen Funde aus Bronzezeit, Eisenzeit, rmischer Epoche und Frhmittelalter an. Um die frhmittelalterliche Kirche entstand im Mittelalter das Stdtchen mit seiner charakteristischen Struktur, die das Ortsbild noch heute prgt:

Im Jahr 760 schenkte Aimo dem Kloster St. Gallen Güter in Elgg und liess dazu ein Urkunde ausstellen, die den Ort im Eulachtal zum ersten Mal erwähnt. Damit schliesst die schriftliche Überlieferung nahtlos an aussagekräftige archäologischen Funde aus Bronzezeit, Eisenzeit, römischer Epoche und Frühmittelalter an. Um die frühmittelalterliche Kirche entstand im Mittelalter das Städtchen mit seiner charakteristischen Struktur, die das Ortsbild noch heute prägt: ein Gassenviereck mit Reihen von Handwerker- und Kleinbauernhäusern, aus dem die Kirche und die mächtigen Tavernen 'Meise' und 'Krone' markant hervortreten. 1370 erhielt Elgg von den Herzögen von Österreich das Marktrecht und im Jahr darauf das Stadtrecht. Sie schufen damit die Grundlage für ein blühendes Handwerk, das mit seinen Zinngiessern, Kammmachern und Ofenbauern im 17. bis 19. Jahrhundert weit herum Beachtung fand.
Einen Gegenpol setzt das Schloss auf einer Geländeterrasse über dem Flecken. Die einst bescheidene hochmittelalterliche Wehranlage wurde unter den Herren von Hinwil zum Zentrum einer wohl organisierten Gerichtsherrschaft. Ihre Nachfolger bauten das Schloss zum feudalen Landsitz aus, die prächtige Innenausstattung liess Generalmajor Hans Felix Werdmüller 1712 anfertigen, dessen Familie bis heute das Schloss besitzt.
Die moderne Zeit hielt in Elgg zögerlich Einzug. Der Kohleabbau am Schneitberg und die damit verbundene Glashütte vermochten nur vorübergehend zu bestehen, die Textilindustrie fasste erst um 1900 Fuss. Bis in die zweite Hälfte des 20. Jahrhunderts kam Elgg dank einer Weberei, der Ofen- und der Schuhfabrik und vielen kleineren Betrieben dennoch zu einem industriellen Aufschwung. Als Folge davon verlagerte sich die Siedlungsentwicklung zum Bahnhofsquartier, während an der sonnigen Lage am Schneitberg, die einst gute Bedingungen für den Weinbau bot, ab den 1950er-Jahren 'Neu-Elgg' mit zahlreichen Einfamilienhäusern entstand. Im Flecken blieb trotz der verheerenden Stadtbrände und zahlreicher Neubauten eine grosse Vielfalt traditioneller Baukultur erhalten.

There are better floating shelves
Color: Rustic Brwon, Size: 16in
Doesn’t feel very sturdy like other floating shelves I’ve bought, and they slant a little. The anchors and screws that it came with all broke so we had to get our own for it to feel more secure on the wall, but still feels wobbly. Overall, it looks good on the wall after the fact, but won’t be adding too much weight on it.

Sturdy, Easy to Set Up, and Looks Great
Color: Grey, Size: 34" - 3 Panel
I’m really happy with this RANTILA 3-panel room divider. It was simple to set up, stands securely on its own, and gives plenty of privacy. The height is perfect, and the panels look clean and modern in my space. It’s lightweight enough to move around but still feels sturdy. Overall, a great divider that works exactly as I needed.

Not 6 ft
Color: Grey, Size: 34" - 3 Panel
I bought this for filming my auditions. I am 5’4” .The height lists is 6 ft but the fabric only reaches 5’9 1/2 “! when I must film myself head to toe, the top bars are showing. It’s easy to set up. But when I film I must tilt my camera to keep the top bars out of frame which is not acceptable.

Perfect for what I needed - getting a 2nd one.
Color: Black, Size: 22" - 4 Panel
Putting it together was a BEE-OTCH!! Yes, one of the tubes had the top cap installed at the wrong end (& getting it off required tools), and yes, stretching the fabric to get the screws in was incredibly hard...but am I buying another one? YES! After all is said and done, this is a great room divider. I opted out of installing the paddle feet & it still works perfect. It won't filter light all that great and even though it stands on its own, it can be blown over easily - but for the price? Excellent. If I wanted a heavy duty, thicker, more expensive one, I would've bought one. The 2nd one is on the way. Perfect height, no weird smell, nice and light and easy to move around.

WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN 😊
Color: Grey, Size: 34" - 3 Panel
I purchased RANTILA 3 Panel Room Divider, 6 Ft Tall Folding Privacy Screen Freestanding Room Partition Wall Dividers, 102''W x 20''D x 71''H, Grey. For outdoor use on my patio is perfect . PRIVACY!!! YAY! It was packaged very carefully. There were no missing parts. Instructions were there but I still had to use the video visually. A few screws would not screw in. So I used a hammer with a few good taps that helped using the screw driver. 😊 It was easy putting it together following the directions. Everything is well made. Love the height, functionality and it’s definitely light it works. Thank you
