 In the tumultuous time of the short lived Weimar Republic, Liedolsheim was an early stronghold of the Nazis.In the mid-1920s, agriculture dominated Liedolsheim; about 3% of the labor force were industrial workers in Karlsruhe and Hochstetten, or were employed at a local brickyard.Around 84% of farmers cultivated an area of less than two hectares and were therefore on additional farms as day laborers or relied on local trade.
