The district has had this name ever since. There has been a lot of construction activity there since the 1960s, and the Olympic Village today borders directly on the Neu-Rum district of the surrounding municipality of Rum , which experienced a similar population development in the vicinity of Innsbruck. To the west of the old town center are suburban settlements made up of single-family houses and, in some cases, luxurious residential complexes.

Outline and statistical data

The area of ​​the cadastral municipality and locality corresponds to the municipality of Arzl, which was independent until 1940. In addition to the village of Arzl, these include parts of what is now the Olympic village and industrial area Mühlau / Arzl as well as the Rotte Finkenberg , the desert Hernstein , and the mountain and guest houses Arzler Alm, Guflhütte, Rechenhof and the Pfeishütte shelter .

The proportion of foreigners is 15.2% (as of 2016).

history

Arzl was first mentioned in 1173 in a document from the Dießen monastery as " Arcella ". The name is probably derived from the Latin arcella (= castle) and is of late Roman or Alpine Roman origin. Originally, Mühlau also belonged to Arzl, which emerged as a mill settlement on the Mühlauer Bach and became independent in 1740. In the course of the formation of large communities under the Nazi regime, Arzl was incorporated into Innsbruck in 1940, which was confirmed in a referendum in 1946.

The hll. Churches consecrated to John the Baptist and John the Evangelist have been documented since 1237. It was originally a branch of Thaur and became a curate in 1786 and a parish in 1891. The original church was replaced by a new Gothic building in 1480 and redesigned in Baroque style from 1735–1737 according to plans by Franz de Paula Penz .

If the connection from Innsbruck to Hall was originally via today's Dörferstraße, then between 1585 and 1589 the new road to Hall was laid on the valley floor through the Arzler Au, next to it the Rosenkranzweg to Loretto . In 1893 the state main shooting range was moved from Mariahilf to the Arzler Au, around it the shooting range developed, later called Neu-Arzl. The shooting range was later relocated to the Eggenwald above Arzl and the Olympic Village was created on its premises.

coat of arms

Unlike Wilten , Hötting or Mühlau, Arzl did not have a coat of arms when it was incorporated. Therefore, in 1993 it received a newly created district coat of arms, which was accepted by the representatives of the Arzler associations. In a red and white split shield on a green mountain, it shows the view of the Arzler Kalvarienbergkirche, seen from the center, in light gray wall and with black roofs. The coat of arms shows the widely visible landmark of Arzl and reminds with the red and white city colors of belonging to Innsbruck.
