Company description and purpose of company Gemeinde Oberbuchsiten

Prehistory has left rich traces in Oberbuchsiten. At the preferred southern location on the Jura slope, settled between 4000 BC. Until 2000 BC Neolithic people. In living pits paved with pebbles, for example, shards, stone axes, flint knives with scraper ends, stone chisels, layers of ashes and bones, clay and broken pebbles were found. Other finds, some of them at the same place, testify that people from the Bronze and Iron Ages (1800 BC to 500 BC) also lived in Oberbuchsiten. Little is known that remains of a Neolithic settlement have been found on the «Hardchöpfli». The box bush was planted by the Romans near their villas. Today this shrub, which gave our village its name and coat of arms, often covers the undergrowth of our wooded mountain. The Latin word buxetum means box forest. The Roman finds (including three villas with cement floors, bricks, ceramics, glass, coins from four centuries and a bronze lamp) bear witness to a high culture. A connecting road led from our village over the Jura chain to Holderbank. Such a pedestrian or mule managed to reach the important Hauensteinstrasse without having to take the detour via the Klus. Cart tracks still point to the old Roman road. This connection (mentioned for the first time in 1359) was also of great importance as a merchant's route in the Middle Ages. The old "Zollhüsli" can still be seen in the village center today. With the fall of the Roman Empire, the Alemanni invaded our area in the 5th and 6th centuries AD, but they took over much of the Celto-Roman culture. The Alemannic graves in the Gäu were numerous, the largest burial ground was found in Oberbuchsiten on the Bühl, not far from the Roman settlement. Men were buried with their weapons and women with their jewelry in 150 graves. These finds can be seen today in the National Museum in Zurich. The name Buchsgau (a Untergau of the great Augstgau) comes from the Franconian period, which in turn refers to the beech tree planted by the Romans. During this time Christianity also spread in our area. The Buchsgau came to the newly established diocese of Basel in the eighth century AD. The first building of a church in Oberbuchsiten probably dates back to the turn of the millennium, in 1040 the German King Heinrich III gave Buxita to the Einsiedeln monastery. The name of our village is mentioned for the first time in this deed of donation. In 1080 King Heinrich IV awarded the Buchsgau to the faithful Bishop of Basel. The Counts of Froburg exercised the landgrave rights as fiefs of the bishops. The neighboring lords of Bechburg and Falkenstein, among others, also appeared as vassals. After the death of the last Froburger, first the gentlemen von Nidau, then those of Thierstein, inherited these rights. The decline of the nobility allowed the cities of Solothurn and Bern to purchase the Gäu and the Bipperamt. These areas became a common rule of the two Aare cities in 1427: together they exercised the landgraviate. The Vogt, who ruled over Oberbuchsiten, resided at the Bechburg in Oensingen. In 1463 Solothurn decided in favor of the Gäu when the common rulership was completely divided, while the Bipperamt became Bernese.
