After 1469, Winterlingen was permanently a possession of Württemberg. It was assigned to Oberamt Balingen [de], though it was briefly reassigned in 1810 to Oberamt Ebingen [de]. In 1938, the Oberamt of Balingen was reorganized as Landkreis Balingen [de]. Some residential and commercial expansion of Winterlingen took place before World War II, and it slowly expanded after the war starting in the 1950s to the north and southwest. In 1942 Selma Burkard killed in tragedy of the Holocaust.[2] There was additional development in the 1970s, and the reassignment of Winterlingen in 1973, following the 1973 Baden-Württemberg district reform [de], to the newly created Zollernalb district.[3]
