Count Gottfried sold Hagelloch to Bebenhausen Abbey in 1296 which retained ownership of the district until the cloister was dissolved in 1807.

During the 19th century, many areas of Germany underwent 'Realteilung' - a redistribution of land and property - which also affected Hagelloch and small landowners.

In the first half of the 19th century 43.1% of the inhabitants of Hagelloch were manual workers (such as bricklayers, plasterers and carpenters), 18.6% farmers and 11.6% 'day labourers'.

Village in Hagelloch comes to life through its festivals and clubs with concerts throughout the year, sports weekends and a triathlon.

On 30 April the 'May Enunciation' takes place outside the town hall with the erection of a May pole accompanied by music and singing.
