Aubinger Lohe
The Aubinger Lohe is a forest area on a hill on the western edge of Munich in Germany. It is part of the Munich green belt . Since the reforestation with spruce, it is no longer a tan in the sense of a landscape description.
The Aubinger Lohe lies entirely in the area of the city of Munich and is surrounded in the north by the Lochhausen district , in the southeast by the Aubing district and otherwise by meadows and fields. At the southern edge it is cut through by the Munich – Fürstenfeldbruck railway line and a side road running parallel to it. Its main part is about 1.8 km long and 1.2 km wide, its total area is about 6.2 km². The Lohwiesengraben, a tributary of the Langwieder Bach , begins at the fields that adjoin the eastern edge , while the Erlbach flows past to the west: both flow into the Gröbenbach a few kilometers further north .
The hill is the only significant natural elevation that rises in the Munich gravel plain. At its highest point it is 541 m above sea level and rises about 25 meters above its surrounding area. It was created at the end of the Riss Cold Age . While the soil in the surrounding plain was largely eroded by the glacial meltwater, the tertiary sands of the Aubinger Lohe remained where they were deposited about 15 million years ago.
In the south and southeast of the Aubinger Lohe, traces of settlement from the Bronze, Celtic and Roman times were found, as well as two Celtic entrenchments . In the northeast lies the Aubinger Burgstall on the hill ; both are shrouded in legend and are also called Teufelsberg or Teufelsburg in the surrounding area.
The Aubinger Lohe is ecologically valuable because of the ponds on the site of an abandoned brickworks clay pit on its northern edge. Biotopes can be found there, but also around the castle stables and on the edges of the forest area. The Aubinger Lohe is part of the Bavarian landscape protection area LSG-00120.02 "Aubinger Lohe and Moosschwaige with extension" with an area of 624 hectares .

- ↑ The Bavarian State Office for Monument Preservation identifies these monuments with monument numbers: D-1-7834-0044 Celtic Viereckschanze and settlement of the Bronze Age, D-1-7834-0045 Celtic Viereckschanze, D-1-7834-0046 settlement of the Roman Empire, D -1-7834-0047 possible villa rustica from the Roman Empire and Bronze Age finds, D-1-7834-0373 settlement of prehistoric times. In the plain on the southeastern edge of the Aubinger Lohe are still: D-1-7834-0043 presumably cremation graves from the Bronze Age and presumably a settlement from the Latène period, and D-1-7834-0050, a settlement of unknown time in the aerial photo.
