History

[edit]

Lommis is first mentioned in 824 as Loubmeissa[3] and Kalthäusern is first mentioned in 1296 as Kalthusiren.[4]

In 854 St. Gallen received property in the region around Lommis. Around 1200, the Herrschaft of Lommis was a fief of Reichenau Abbey of Reichenau and the Counts of Toggenburg, in the possession of the Ministerialis (unfree knights in the service of a feudal overlord) family of Lommis. In 1443 Petermann of Raron bought the village. After a further changing hands, it came to Fischingen Abbey in 1599. It remained under the Abbey until 1798.

The village church was probably built in the High Middle Ages and was part of the parish of Affeltrangen. A priest is first mentioned in the church in 1214. In 1529, the village converted to the new faith during the Protestant Reformation. However, the local lord was able to re-institute the Mass in 1532. The Reformed members were part of the parish of Matzingen until 1961. The church was used as a shared church from 1648 to 1966.[3]

The main economic activities were farming and vineyards (until 1900) and peat extraction (until 1918). A mill was built in 1625, along with a sawmill. Between 1810 and 1839 there was a cotton mill in Lauchetal, followed by an embroidery factory in 1900 and a shoe factory in 1933. The land improvement of 1918 strengthened the dairy industry. At the beginning of the 21st Century the major industries in Lommis included construction, light industry (including timber, aircraft electronics) and, since 1962, airport jobs. After 1970 the town's population grew rapidly.[3]
