Brautlach is located in the eastern part of the former Donaumoos fen near the old Roman settlement of Oberstimm in the Ingolstadt region . Bundesstraße 13 runs across the old local main street, Aretinstraße . The railway line and ICE line Nuremberg-Munich runs parallel to the B13 . In the north the local area borders on the city limits of the independent city ​​of Ingolstadt and in the east on the district border of the district of Pfaffenhofen . The river Brautlach, fed by the Donaumoos main canal, flows west of the B13 .

history

The local area of ​​Brautlach was untouched moorland until 1790 in the undeveloped and inaccessible largest low moor in southern Germany, the Donaumoos. In the years that followed, the new ruler, Elector Karl Theodor , from Mannheim, had the Donaumoos drained and cultivated into arable land. The dead-straight drainage ditch, which was the first to be dug to drain the moss and along which the first settlement in the moss (Karlskron) arose, flows into the Brautlach a little south of the old village of Brautlach.

Although the elector Karl Theodor had no legitimate children and therefore no legitimate heirs, he fathered a number of illegitimate children with various mistresses. Eight of them are certified as his biological descendants. The youngest of these descendants was Countess Maria Walburga von Warenberg (* 1790; † August 1797), who emerged from his relationship with Elisabeth Freiin Schenk von Castell. The elector had four courtyards built in the Donaumoos to take care of them. This settlement was granted lower jurisdiction on October 15, 1795 and given the name Brautlach. On March 30, 1796, Brautlach was declared Hofmark and Maria Walburga was appointed Hofmark Lady. A guardian ran the business, but the girl died in 1797 at the age of seven.

In the following years, were on either side of, by Johann Georg von Aretin the chronicler of Donaumoos cultivation, village street named - colonists houses created. These were mainly assigned to and inhabited by settlers from the Palatinate. The immigrant settlers of that time were all Protestant and belonged to various Protestant faiths. Mennonites were a significant proportion of the native bridal salmon population . After their emigration and emigration to North America and Canada , Reformed Protestants moved from the Palatinate to take over the houses and properties that had become vacant.

Many residents of bridal salmon earned their livelihood as Fieranten for lack of sufficient agricultural area .

At the end of the 20th century, the Karlskron council decided to designate and develop the area between the B13 and the river Brautlach, southeast of the old town, as an industrial area.

economy

The industrial area Brautlach offers good transport connections due to its direct border to the B13 and the relatively close connection to the Manching and Langenbruck motorway entrances of the BAB 9 . A number of small and medium-sized industrial, craft and trading companies have settled in this area and offer jobs for the local population and the surrounding area. The industrial area Brautlach is an important economic factor for the municipality of Karlskron and has meanwhile become so attractive for the economy that the neighboring municipality of Baar-Ebenhausen offers an area with the designation "industrial area Brautlach Süd" in direct connection to the existing Karlskron industrial area.
