Brunegg is a municipality in the district of Lenzburg in the canton of Aargau in Switzerland. ==History== Brunegg is first mentioned in first half of the 12th Century as ''Bruneco''. In 1273 it was mentioned as ''Brunegge''.〔 Brunegg castle was built on a hill at the edge of the Jura mountains in the 13th Century. This castle was probably built, together with Wildegg castle in nearby Wildegg, as part of the Habsburg border defenses. The castle was occupied by Habsburg knights, including Schenken von Brunegg and Gessler von Meienberg. In 1415 the castle was besieged by Bernese troops, but they lifted siege after a counterattack. However, Bern conquered the Aargau, and awarded the fief to the Segenser or Segesser family. Between 1538-1798, the castle was subordinate to the Governor of Lenzburg. In 1815 it became the property of the Hünerwadel family of Lenzburg. The current owners of the castle, the Salis family, inherited the castle through marriage from the Hünerwadels. For hundreds of years, the castle was poorly maintained, and in the 17th Century it was heavily damaged twice through storm and tempest. In 1805-06, the keep and out buildings were repaired and the roof was rebuilt.〔 The village owes its name and existence to the castle. Initially it belonged to the personal land of the Habsburgs. In the 14th Century, they granted the rights to low justice into the hands of the castle owners. Bern placed in the court of Othmarsingen in the Lenzburg district. In the 19th Century it was part of the Brugg district though since 1840 it has been in the Lenzburg district. Originally it was part of the Windisch parish, though since 1526 it has belonged to the Birr parish. Brunegg has had its own Reformed Church since 1967. Brunegg remained a farming village with a little grain and viticulture on the mountain slopes until the 20th Century. In 1950, 24% of the workers were in the agricultural sector. In 1990 that number was 5%, with 28% working in manufacturing and 67% in the services sector. The A1 motorway, which opened in 1970, touches south-east corner of the municipality. One road from the Mägenwil exit runs straight through the municipality. This easy access to the motorway, led to the establishment of several traffic-logistics businesses. Since 1990, the number of open jobs slightly exceeds the number of inhabitants.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Brunegg」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
