history

The history of the Spickel-Herrenbach planning area is comparatively young. The development in the Wolfram and Herrenbachviertel, named after the former mayor Georg von Wolfram and the Herrenbach canal , took place at the beginning of the 20th century due to the local textile industry. Mainly simple apartment blocks for the population working in industrial companies emerged at this time.

This was rounded off with social institutions such as churches, schools and kindergartens. This is how a “city within the city” was created. At the beginning of the 1970s, the Augsburg city government had the first plans to build a so-called satellite town in Herrenbach. In the 1970s, a few high-rise buildings were built in the south of the Herrenbach, some of which reached 70 meters in height. The first shopping center in Augsburg, the "Schwabencenter", was built as a local supply .

The Spickel as the second part of the planning area is very different from the neighboring Herrenbach. While the majority of this is inhabited by workers and has a very high proportion of migrants of around 60-70%, the Spickel, which is directly adjacent to the seven-table complex, is a place of residence of middle-class conditions. The name goes back to the former restaurant "Spickel" . The design of the quarter, which was also known as the “Gartenstadt Spickel”, is based on the Thelottviertel and was planned by Gottfried E. Bösch (1874–1929) and Joseph Weidenbacher (1886–1973). After the First World War, they designed a settlement with small single and multi-family houses to meet the prevailing housing shortage. An Augsburg-Spickel stop has existed since the beginning of the railway line to Munich around 1839 and was already included in the first development plan for the new district. This stop has not been served since the 1974 summer timetable, the shelters and the platforms were demolished as part of the four-track expansion.
