history

middle Ages

Magstadt was first mentioned in 1110 in a document from the Hirsau monastery . At that time the place was subordinate to the Margraves of Hildrizhausen, who later ceded it to the Margraves of Tübingen. Magstadt came to the county of Württemberg in 1308 through the Lords of Weißenstein , the Lords of Roßwag and the Lords of Börstingen .

Württemberg time

Until the Reformation , the Magstatter parish belonged to the district of Weil der Stadt in the Archdiakonat Trinitatis of the diocese of Speyer . In 1534 Duke Ulrich implemented the Reformation in Württemberg. For a long time Magstadt belonged to the office of Leonberg, but from 1767 to the upper office of Böblingen , where it remained after the establishment of the Kingdom of Württemberg in 1806. In 1817 Magstadt was granted market rights.

In 1850 Magstadt had 2,207 Protestant and two Catholic residents who lived and worked in 236 main and 185 auxiliary buildings.

In 1915, the year of the World War, the railway line between Böblingen and Magstadt was ready for operation and thus established a connection to the route network of the Württemberg State Railways .

In 1927, two industrial companies set up shop in Magstadt: the malt factory Dr. Karl Flik and the Schoenenberger sap plant.

Nazi era

During the administrative reform in Württemberg during the Nazi era , Magstadt came to the Böblingen district in 1938.

On March 15, 1943, SS men deported Magstadter Sinti from their workplaces at Daimler to Auschwitz and other extermination camps. Out of 26 Sinti, only a few return to Magstadt from concentration camps.

During the Second World War , large parts of the town center of Magstadt were destroyed by Allied bombing raids. On April 20, French troops occupied Magstadt. The following night there was a series of rape by Moroccan soldiers , the French officers did not intervene.

post war period

Since Magstadt had become part of the American zone of occupation after the Second World War , the community had belonged to the newly founded state of Württemberg-Baden since 1945 , which was merged into the current state of Baden-Württemberg in 1952.

During the reconstruction of the destroyed town center, a new market square was created east of the church.

Economy and Infrastructure

traffic

Passage through Magstadt

At the end of March 2014, the last section of the B 464 was inaugurated. The through traffic of Magstadt, which was previously one of the most heavily loaded with 20,000 cars per day in Baden-Württemberg, is thus effectively relieved of through traffic. The southern bypass created as part of the Magstadt traffic concept has also removed all level crossings. At the same time, a truck traffic ban was issued with the exception of delivery traffic for Magstadt. Only the planned eastern bypass is to be built from 2014 to connect the eastern industrial area to the local roads. The original plan was to connect Magstadt to the federal highway 81 . This was replaced by the construction of the B 464 and B 295 . The western bypass started in 2003 is required as an alternative route for the expansion of the A 81 near Böblingen and Sindelfingen.

Magstadt is located on the Rankbachbahn ( Renningen - Böblingen ). After the route, which opened in 1915, had only been used for goods traffic and personnel journeys by Daimler AG for 42 years, its full length was integrated into the Stuttgart S-Bahn in December 2012 as the S60 and, together with the 745 bus, replaces the route between Bus route 757 runs to Renningen and Böblingen. Bus route 745 also runs through the neighboring town of Maichingen . Magstadt is also served by the express bus route X74 ( Weil der Stadt - Ihinger Hof -Magstadt - Büsnau - Stuttgart University ) from the Magstadt company Stäbler. S-Bahn and bus lines are integrated into the Stuttgart Transport and Tariff Association (VVS).

Culture and sights

Protestant church

Protestant church

The place Magstadt had a wooden chapel early on and later a sandstone church built in the Romanesque style in the 10th century. In its place, the construction of a new church began from around 1490 under the Bebenhausen abbot Bernhard Rockenbauch, who came from Magstadt . The style of the choir side tower is late Gothic, the sandstone pointed arches of the windows are particularly beautiful. The church was consecrated in 1511. There are differences about the dedication. It is believed by scholars that it was dedicated to St. George , the Magstadter know their church as St. John the Baptist Church. The church was Catholic for about 25 years, then it became Protestant as the Württemberg Church in the course of the Reformation.

The existing church was once the center of a defense system secured with a triple wall and moat. The inner defensive wall and the fortress wall are still well preserved, especially in the south-eastern part. The church used to be surrounded by the cemetery, where funerals were carried out until the late 17th century. Some gravestones from the 15th-18th centuries Century can be seen around the church.

Today, the church with its mighty tower and four large dials shapes the image of the Magstadt town center.
