City structure
The urban area of Winnenden consists of the core town , the Schelmenholz residential district (not an independent district), which was created in 1964 and had 4,441 inhabitants in 2000, and the districts of Baach, Birkmannsweiler, Breuningsweiler , Bürg, Hanweiler, Hertmannsweiler and Höfen, which were only introduced as part of the municipal reform incorporated in the 1970s. The individual districts also include separately located residential areas with special names, such as Lange Weiden, Pfeilhof in Baach, Buchenbachhof, Burkhardshof and Neumühle in Birkmannsweiler, Sonnenberg in Breuningsweiler, Schulerhof in Bürg, Degenhof in Hertmannsweiler and Ruitzenmühle in Höfen. In the core city, a distinction is made between residential areas with their own names, the names of which have emerged in the course of history due to the development and which, however, are usually not exactly definable. This includes, for example, the “Am Hungerberg” residential area.

history
Pre-Christian time
With the support of the city of Winnenden, the State Office for Monument Preservation Baden-Württemberg laid a Stone Age village complex in Hertmannsweiler from around 4500 BC in 2009 and 2010 . Free BC, which arose in the middle phase of the Neolithic , the so-called Rössen culture stage .
The settlement consisted of simple rectangular houses built in timber and clay frame. There were also traces of storage pits and furnace systems, but interestingly no wells as can be found elsewhere from the Neolithic period. Of particular interest is the fact that the village complex, situated on a flat ridge, was at least temporarily protected by mighty, continuous palisades . These fortifications, which were built with considerable effort, can be taken as evidence of an external threat from which the villagers wanted to protect themselves. Apparently for only two or three generations families from agriculture and livestock farming lived here and made simple ceramic vessels, but also made complicated tools out of flint or rock rubble. They buried their dead in stool graves in the immediate vicinity of the village , one of which could be excavated.
During further excavations in 2018 on the same area, archaeologists unearthed around 6,500 year old pottery shards from the Neolithic Age. Some of these are decorated with elaborate ornaments , provided with clear engravings and prove that the first verifiable “industrial area” of Winnenden was located here.
Middle Ages and early modern times
The name Winnenden was probably used shortly after 850 AD for the settlement area on the Buchenbach. At that time, Emperor Ludwig the Pious had Slavs and Moravia prisoners of war resettled in the empire. The oldest foundations of the castle church date from this time and indicate that the parish was founded to Christianize these so-called Wends . The current name Winnenden then developed from the tribal name for the Wends.
However, Winnenden was first mentioned in writing during the reign of Frederick I (Barbarossa) von Stauffen . On May 25, 1181, the emperor issued a certificate about the Adelberg monastery , which lists a "Gotefridus de Wineden" in the list of witnesses. This noblewoman, a younger descendant of the Lords of Schauenburg, had created a family seat for himself with the construction of the Alt-Winnenden Castle (today Bürg). His son-in-law Heinrich von Neuffen received in 1212 the privilege of the so-called market justice from King (later Emperor) Friedrich II , the castle, which was called Windin at that time , and thus the basis for the establishment of the city of Winnenden - the oldest city in the Rems -Murr circle is. In 1277 Alt-Winnenden Castle (now Bürg) was transferred to Konrad von Weinsberg . On October 10, 1325, the castle and town of Winnenden were sold to Württemberg . The Winnenden office emerged from the Winnenden rule in the time of Württemberg, which was later elevated to a higher office . The city palace (the Deutschordenskommende Winnenden, mentioned since 1291 and also called Schloss Winnenthal ) only came to Württemberg in 1665.
During the Peasants' War , Winnenden was initially under the influence of the poor Konrad , but in 1519 had to surrender to the Swabian Association of Cities . A plague-like epidemic killed around half of the population in 1616. The city was sacked in 1638 and 1643 during the Thirty Years War . Imperial, French and Swedish troops temporarily occupied Winnenden.
1665 acquired Duke Eberhard III. of Württemberg the Teutonic Order Winnenden as a ducal chamber clerk's property. The Winnenthal staff office was created from this area. In 1693 French troops set Winnenden on fire. All buildings within the city wall ring burned down.
Modern times
In 1808, as part of the new administrative structure after the establishment of the Kingdom of Württemberg, the Oberamt Winnenden and the Stabsamt Winnenthal were dissolved and its communities, including all of today's districts of Winnenden, assigned to the Oberamt Waiblingen . With the completion of the Waiblingen - Backnang section of the Murrtalbahn in 1876, Winnenden was connected to the route network of the Württemberg State Railways .
In the course of the district reforms during the Nazi era in Württemberg , Winnenden first came to the Waiblingen district in 1934 , although this was only the renamed old Oberamt, and in 1938 to the enlarged Waiblingen district .
Since Winnenden had become part of the American zone of occupation after the Second World War , the city had belonged to the newly founded state of Württemberg-Baden since 1945 , which was incorporated into the current state of Baden-Württemberg in 1952.
Through the district reform in Baden-Württemberg , Winnenden came to the Rems-Murr district on January 1, 1973.
Incorporations
As part of the regional reform in the early 1970s, several neighboring communities were incorporated. As a result, the urban area reached its present size and the number of inhabitants exceeded the 20,000-inhabitant limit. Therefore, the city administration applied for a major district town , which the state government of Baden-Württemberg then decided with effect from January 1, 1973.
Baach was first mentioned in 1357 and mostly belonged to the Teutonic Order Commandery in Winnenden. With this, the place came to Württemberg in 1665 and then belonged to the office or Oberamt Winnenden.
Birkmannsweiler wasfirst mentionedin 1304 as Berkamswiler and belonged to the Winnenden rule. The place probably came to Württemberg (Amt Winnenden) in 1325, but the Teutonic Order also owned here. In 1545 the place already comprised 42 households.
Breuningsweiler wasfirst mentionedas Bruningswiler in 1293, when the Lorch monastery ceded the bailiff over its property to Württemberg. In 1443 the taverns of Winnenden and the Teutonic Order Commandery were also wealthy. By 1545 there were already 19 households here. From 1665 the whole place belonged to Württemberg (Amt Winnenden).
Burg wasfirst mentionedin 1210 as castrum Winidum . In 1525 it was called the Bürg , in 1624 Altwinnenden . The castle Altwinnenden was the seat of the Lords of Winnenden before they got to Württemberg. The place initially belonged to the community of Baach with the Schulerhof and Stöckenhof residential areas. In 1815, Bürg became its own municipality within the Waiblingen Oberamt. The Stöckenhof residential area was reclassified to the neighboring community of Öschelbronn on January 1, 1972, which in turn became part of the newly formed Buchenberg community on April 1, 1972 (from December 27, 1972 Berglen).
Hanweiler wasfirst mentionedin 1426 as Heinwiler . In 1477 "Hanweiler called in the Trombach" was mentioned. The Trombach forest was given to the newly founded Teutonic Order Commandery as early as 1288 by the Lords of Neuffen. Hanweiler thus belonged to the Teutonic Order Commandery and came with this to Württemberg. It initially belonged to the Chamber of Commerce, in 1753 to the landscape and was assigned to the Winnenthal staff office.
Hertmannsweiler wasfirst mentionedin 1444 as Hertmannswiller . The place already belonged to Württemberg and was assigned to the outer court of the Winnenden office. In 1545 there were 73 households in the place.
Höfen wasfirst mentionedin 1524 as zu Höfen . In 1559 a distinction was made between Ober and Unter Heffa. The "two courtyards near Winnenden" belonged to the Teutonic Order Commandery when it was founded. In 1665 the place came to Württemberg and was assigned to the Winnenthal staff office.

Religions
Winnenden initially belonged to the diocese of Constance . In 1537, as in all of Württemberg, the Reformation was introduced from 1534 . After that, Winnenden was a purely Protestant city. It belongs to the deanery or church district Waiblingen . The town church St. Bernhard and the castle church St. Jakobus belong to today's town parish of Winnenden . In the latter, the congregation meets for worship. The Winnenden Evangelical Church Congregation initially included the parishioners from the districts where the Reformation was also introduced. Later, some parishes of their own were founded. This is how the Hertmannsweiler parish came into being in 1837, to which the parishioners from Bürg belong since 1911. In 1964 a separate church (Resurrection Church) was built in Bürg. In 1840 the parish of Birkmannsweiler was established, to which Baach and Höfen have also belonged since 1911. Breuningsweiler became its own parish in 1922, which also looks after the parishioners of the neighboring town of Buoch (Remshalden parish). Today the town parish, the Schelmenholz-Hanweiler parish and the Paul-Schneider-Haus parish make up the Winnenden Evangelical Church Community. Sermons for the Schelmenholz-Hanweiler parish are the Hanweiler Church, built in 1962, and the Christophorushaus in Schelmenholz. The Paul Schneider Haus congregation celebrates church service in the community center of the same name.
In the 20th century, Catholicism and Islam gained in importance through immigration. In 1946 the first Catholic pastoral care unit was established in Winnenden after the Reformation, and in 1958 the parish was founded. The own church of St. Karl Borromeo was built in 1961. The parish also looks after the Catholics of the districts of Baach, Birkmannsweiler, Breuningsweiler, Bürg, Hanweiler, Hertmannsweiler, Höfen and Schelmenholz and is part of the Rems-Murr dean's office . In 1971, the Maximilian-Kolbe-Haus was built in Schelmenholz as a further community center. There is also the St. Maria parish center in the Oppelsbohm district of the Berglen parish, which is also part of the Winnenden parish.
At present (2011 census), Protestants make up the largest denominational group with 41.2% of the population. Catholics make up 21.7% of the population. 37.1% belong to another or no religion. The distribution of religions roughly corresponds to that at district level. Compared to the state level, there are proportionally significantly fewer Catholics and significantly more non-denominational people and members of other religions, compared to the federal level Protestants are overrepresented and Catholics are underrepresented. Practically all of the approximately 11,000 Protestants in the city are German citizens. Around 1,000 are foreigners among the almost 6,000 Catholics. The proportion of foreigners is around 30% of around 10,000 non-denominational people and members of other religions.
In addition to the two large churches in Winnenden, there is also a mosque association affiliated to the DITIB in the Kocatepe mosque in the Leutenbach district, which opened in 2000, as well as some free churches , including the Methodist Church with congregations in Winnenden and Birkmannsweiler, God's congregation , the people's mission decided Christian and the Free Evangelical Congregation . The New Apostolic Church is also represented in Winnenden.

Economy and Infrastructure
traffic
Winnenden is on the B 14 ( Stuttgart - Schwäbisch Hall ) between Waiblingen and Backnang . Until the inauguration of the bypass road in September 2009, the course of the B14 led through the city center, because the motorway-like expansion of the B14 from Fellbach was only carried out in 1979 as far as the southwestern entrance to Winnenden. The four-lane western bypass has been under construction since 2002. The southern construction section over the Zipfelbachtalbrücke , temporarily designated as Bundesstrasse 14n in 2006 , initially ended at the Winnenden-Mitte junction in front of the construction site of the Leutenbach Tunnel , which crosses the Hungerberg and the Murrbahn line between Leutenbach and Winnenden. The tunnel and the northern section to Nellmersbach were released on September 21, 2009. The old B14 route through Winnenden and Hertmannsweiler was downgraded and partially dismantled.
Winnenden is on the Waiblingen – Schwäbisch Hall-Hessental railway line (course book route 785, "Murrbahn"). Line S3 (Backnang – Stuttgart– Airport ) of the Stuttgart S-Bahn also runs here . Stuttgart city center can be reached from Winnenden train station in around 25 minutes. A network of bus routes is operated in the city center, but they also run to neighboring communities. All lines operate at uniform prices within the Stuttgart Transport and Tariff Association (VVS).
Established businesses
The cleaning equipment manufacturer Kärcher , A&M Electric Tools with the power tool brands AEG and Milwaukee and the medium-sized sports equipment manufacturer Gotthilf Benz Turngerätefabrik are of national importance .
media
The daily newspaper Winnender Zeitung of the newspaper publisher Waiblingen reports on the local daily events in Winnenden .
education
Winnenden has four primary schools in the city center (Kastenschule, Hungerbergschule and the Stöckachschule with the primary school support class) and one further primary school each in the districts of Birkmannsweiler, Breuningsweiler, Hertmannsweiler, Höfen and Schelmenholz. There is a community school (Ludwig-Uhland community school Schwaikheim, Winnenden branch), two secondary schools ( Albertville and Geschwister-Scholl secondary school), and two high schools ( Lessing-Gymnasium and Georg-Büchner-Gymnasium). There is also a special school (Haselstein School) and three special schools (School at the Way of St. James, Vocational College for Sign Language, and the Bodenwald School) as institutions for the Pauline Care.
Winnenden Castle Clinic
On March 1, 1834, a mental hospital was set up in Winnental Castle according to plans by the medical doctor and reformer of clinical psychiatry Karl Heinrich Gotthilf von Köstlin . Dr. Albert Zeller was entrusted with the management of the sanatorium and nursing home. With his work in Winnenthal, Zeller shaped the development of psychiatry in Germany. The poet Nikolaus Lenau , the gunman Ernst August Wagner and also the doctor and physicist Robert Mayer were treated here.
In 1940, the state institution in Württemberg became an intermediate institution for patients and residents from the Bürgerhospital Stuttgart, Göppingen, the Paulinenpflege Winnenden, Rottenmünster and Stetten in the Rems Valley. As part of " Aktion T4 ", 396 women, men, young people and children were transferred to the Grafeneck Castle killing facility and murdered there by the National Socialists as a result of so-called euthanasia by the so-called " gray buses " of the non-profit patient transport GmbH (Gekrat) .
In 1971 the former sanatorium became the modern State Psychiatric Hospital (PLK). In 1996 the legal form of the hospital changed to an institution under public law and the PLK was renamed the Center for Psychiatry (ZfP).
Today the Klinikum Schloß Winnenden - Center for Psychiatry Winnenden is a modern specialist hospital for psychiatry and neurology with approx. 600 beds and modern equipment. In 2016 a psychiatric day clinic for children and adolescents was opened.
Rems-Murr-Klinikum
On July 14, 2008, the district council of the Rems-Murr district decided to build the new central district hospital in Winnenden. In return, the hospitals in Backnang and Waiblingen were closed after the completion of the new hospital complex. The preparatory work began in 2008, and the actual construction work began in mid-June 2009. The Rems-Murr-Klinikum Winnenden opened on July 4, 2014, and regular operations began on July 19, 2014. The construction costs amounted to approx. 292 million euros - around 30 million euros over the originally planned 260 million euros. The hospital is adjacent to the Winnenden Castle Clinic . In the current expansion (as of 2019) there are 667 beds and 13 operating rooms , including a hybrid operating room. The clinic has been an academic teaching hospital of the Eberhard Karls University of Tübingen since 2015 . On February 20, 2019, the first medical students at the Rems-Murr-Klinikum Winnenden successfully passed their state examination.
The Rems-Murr-Klinikum Winnenden is run together with the Rems-Murr-Klinikum in Schorndorf by the Rems-Murr-Kliniken gGmbH , which in turn is a 100% company of the Rems-Murr district .
