History

Hendschiken is first mentioned in 1160 as Hentschikon.[1] During the Middle Ages, the major landowners in Hendschiken included Muri Abbey, Säckingen Abbey and St. Urban Abbey as well as the Counts of Lenzburg and Habsburg. In the 14th century most of the land went to the Habsburg owned Königsfelden Abbey. The right to administer low justice was acquired between 1264-1273 by the Lords of Hallwyl, who held it until 1798. In 1415 the village came under the control of Bern and became part of the Lenzburg district (Шаблон:Lang-de). After it became a village in the 15th century, the farmers were allowed to freely choose their Twingherren from among any member of the Hallwyl family. With the Act of Mediation in 1803, Hendschiken joined the newly created Canton of Aargau and became part of the Lenzburg district.

Initially it belonged to the Staufberg parish, but in 1565 it was assigned to the Lenzburg parish.

In the 18th and 19th centuries, the straw plaiting (in Wohlen) and the cotton industry (in Lenzburg) resulted in an economic upswing. In addition to small businesses of the 19th century, in the second half of the 20th century some medium-sized enterprises (paper and plastic packaging, surface technology) set up outside the village. In the 1970s, housing grew because of the proximity to the highway. 1982 saw the inauguration of the church center.[1]
