## History

### Local history

Neuler was first documented in 1113. In 1746, the baroque parish church was built on the foundations of a Gothic church. The town originally belonged to the Prince-Provostry of Ellwangen. With secularization resulting from the Principal Conclusion of the Imperial Deputation in 1803, the [Prince-Provostry](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Prince-Provostry&action=edit&redlink=1), including Neuler, fell to the Electorate of Württemberg, which became the Kingdom of Württemberg in 1806. In accordance with the new administrative division, Neuler was assigned to the [Oberamt of Ellwangen](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Oberamt_of_Ellwangen&action=edit&redlink=1). As part of the district reform during the [Nazi era](/source/Nazi_era) in Württemberg, Neuler came under the [Aalen district](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Aalen_district&action=edit&redlink=1) in 1938. After [World War II](/source/World_War_II), Neuler belonged to the postwar state of [Württemberg-Baden](/source/W%C3%BCrttemberg-Baden), founded in 1945 in the [American occupation zone](/source/American_occupation_zone), from 1945 to 1952. In 1952, the municipality became part of the new state of [Baden-Württemberg](/source/Baden-W%C3%BCrttemberg). In the postwar years, the formerly agriculturally characterized town developed into a workers' residential community.[5] Through the district reform of 1973, Neuler became part of the newly created [Ostalbkreis district](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ostalbkreis_district&action=edit&redlink=1).
