Au in der Hallertau (officially: Au idHallertau ) is a market in the north of the Upper Bavarian district of Freising in the southern area of ​​the Hallertau . Since hop growing has played an important role in the Auer municipal corridors for centuries, and Auer hops in particular have gained a worldwide reputation in Germany and beyond, the name of the village of Au is often supplemented with the name Herz im Hopfengau . This is to emphasize the central importance of the Au market within the Hallertau. The Au in der Hallertau market is spread out in a long valley basin on both sides of the Abens river . The townscape is dominated by stately town houses and the area is characterized by hop plants and forests.

history

History of the Au market

The area around Au was settled at an early stage, as evidenced by the Celtic ring wall system on the Schlossberg north of the market, which probably dates from the Hallstadt culture 650–400 BC. Is to be attributed to Chr.

The statement that Au was probably founded around the year 500 AD has not been scientifically proven. Although there are sources from many neighboring towns of the market that date from the 8th – 10th centuries. Dating back to the 14th century, Au first emerged with certainty in 1140: Wolvolt ze Owa (Wolvot von Au) bequeathed an estate to Weihenstephan Monastery in a deed of donation . Earlier assumptions about an older mention of Au are likely due to confusion with the frequently occurring place names (such as Au, Aw, Awe, Ouwe, ...). The Au family administered the Au dominion for the Weihenstephan monastery. It is certain, however, that in 1272 the Counts of Moosburg had Au as a fief and that there was a small castle there that remained in their hands until the family died out in 1281 (death of Kondrad IV the Younger). Heirs to the Moosburg family were the lords of Stein and Randegg, who in turn were inherited by the Counts of Abensberg in 1306 . On September 12, 1349, Count Ulrich III. von Abensberg for Au at Emperor Ludwig the Bavarian the right to market : … the right to encircle themselves with fences and ditches, also that they should have stick and gallows and a weekly market. After the death of Ulrich III. von Abensberg In 1385, Markt and Veste Au were sold to the Preysinger, Counts of Wolnzach , for 950 Hungarian guilders . 1448 Au by Friedrich III. awarded the coat of arms, which is still valid today.

In 1463 Kaspar married Herr von Turn Barbara, the daughter of the last Preysinger, and so the Turn family came into the possession of Au. During the Landshut War of Succession , the place was looted and the castle destroyed in 1503. The castle was rebuilt in its current form as Schloss Au from 1554–1578. In 1560 the Hofmark Hettenkirchen (until 1752 near Au), the Hofmark Pfettrach in 1565 (until 1818 near Au) and attached to the rule of Au. A master brewer is mentioned for the first time in 1590, which is the oldest evidence of the Au Castle Brewery. During the Thirty Years' War , Au was sacked by the Swedes in 1633; only the lock remained intact. In 1642 the male line of Turner died out and the last daughter, Marianna Freifrau von Turn, married Johann Freiherrn von Fraunhofen . 1688–1689 the parish church of St. Vitus was rebuilt. As part of the War of the Spanish Succession , Hungarian hussars invaded Au in July 1704 and extorted war contributions of 5,000 guilders. Mauritia, the last baroness of Fraunhofen, married Count Philipp Joseph von Toerring-Seefeld in 1709 ; the Toerring-Seefeld remained lords of Au until 1735. By marrying the surviving daughter, the Counts of Preysing-Hohenaschau came into the possession of the Au dominion. In 1752 Au consisted of 97 properties; Osseltshausen, Günzenhausen, Wolfersdorf , Pfettrach, Hirnkirchen and Haslach also belonged to the Au dominion .

In 1818 Au was appointed patrimonial court in the course of the 2nd municipal edict . The rule Au was abolished and emerged as Markt Au within the boundaries of the old market district. Au has always belonged to the Moosburg an der Isar regional court , which was in Lower Bavaria. In 1808 Au came to Upper Bavaria with the regional court; on August 8, 1857, Au was relocated to the Mainburg Regional Court and thus back to Lower Bavaria. In 1845 Au became its own seal district in the Hallertau and 227 quintals of hops were sealed. In 1864 Au had 760 inhabitants. In 1898 the first hop hall is built, which was expanded in 1928. From 1907 to 1909, the Langenbach – Enzelhausen line , known as the Hallertau Local Railway , was built and Au received its own station. The railway line was shut down at the end of 1970. Before the First World War, Au was home to 1,214 residents, 71 of whom lost their lives in the war. The years after the war, inflation and its economic worries weighed heavily on Au. However, there followed a hardly anticipated upturn. The second war of 1939–1945, however, again inflicted deep wounds in the economic life of the market, which were only gradually overcome. The hops became increasingly the main source of work and income for Au. On July 1, 1972, the Mainburg district was dissolved in the course of the regional reform in Bavaria and Au came to the Freising district and became Upper Bavarian. Numerous incorporations made Au with 54.99 km² the second largest municipality in the district in terms of area. In the state development program, the Au in der Hallertau market is designated as a small center.

Incorporations

On July 1, 1972, the northern part of the previously independent municipality of Reichertshausen with the districts of Reichertshausen, Willertshausen and Sindorf and the former municipality of Rudertshausen were incorporated. On January 1, 1976, Osseltshausen voluntarily joined the Au market.

Günzenhausen , Haslach and Osterwaal followed on January 1, 1978 . Finally, on May 1, 1978, the incorporation of Abens (the merger of the previous communities of Hemhausen and Hirnkirchen to form the new Abens community on January 1, 1971) completed the series of incorporations.

After the district reform, the residents of Sillertshausen and Held (both parish of Attenkirchen) demanded that they be incorporated into Au. On January 1, 1982, the small area of Attenkirchen , which then had around 40 inhabitants, was ceded to Markt Au in der Hallertau.

Au in der Hallertau bypass on the B 301

The federal highway 301 led directly through the place. Since the 1980s, the market has been striving for a bypass . The start of construction seemed assured for 2008. In the late summer of 2008 it became known that the financial means would no longer be made available. In order to achieve a timely start of construction, Markt Au mobilized the national press, among other things, in order to secure the promised financing. Thanks to a grant from the State of Bavaria, construction began in mid-2009. The bypass has been open to traffic since mid-December 2011.

Au was connected to rail traffic via the Hallertau local railway from Langenbach to Enzelhausen . The route was closed in 1996 and is now available as a cycle path .
