Expansion of the urban area

The municipality has twelve officially named municipal parts (the type of settlement is given in brackets ):

Bruck and Buchenau are not officially named parts of the municipality.

climate

Amper, parish church of St. Magdalena

Fürstenfeldbruck can - like practically all of Bavaria (except high mountain areas) - be assigned to the Central European transitional climate . Extreme weather extremes in the continental climate are rare, but it can be observed that the winters in particular are often more severe than in western Germany. Also, there is usually more snow falling than in many other German areas. One reason for this is the altitude of more than 500 meters above sea ​​level . In summer, on the other hand, it can often be hotter than e.g. B. on the North Sea coast, since the cooling effect of a large body of water is missing. Further essential weather-determining factors are the Alps as central European and the Danube as regional weather divisions . Due to this constellation, the weather is relatively changeable. The foehn brings irregular warm, dry air currents to Fürstenfeldbruck all year round from the south. The city's microclimate is influenced by the Amper.

history

Small town idyll, Bullachstrasse, near Amper

Until the 19th century

The name Fürstenfeldbruck is a sequence of the names Fürstenfeld and Bruck .

The part of the name Fürstenfeld (field of the prince) indicates that this corridor used to belong to the Wittelsbach family. The Cistercian monastery Fürstenfeld was founded there in 1263 .

Fürstenfeld Monastery

The Bruck settlement in the immediate vicinity of the monastery had already been built at the Amper crossing there. For the crossing of this bridge, which belonged to the - at the time very important - Salt Road , the counterpointer family collected customs duties on behalf of the Welfs .

A settlement that was first referred to as a market in 1306 grew around this customs station and a post office established there. In 1340 the monastery acquired the manor and the village court over the market. In 1425 the last ownership rights passed from the counterpoints to the monastery. The Leonhard Church in Bruck was consecrated in 1440 . In 1569 the Bruck Poststation was mentioned for the first time. At the end of the 17th century, the Fürstenfeld monastery was rebuilt in the baroque style.

In 1803 the monastery was secularized and slowly a civil self-government developed. Bruck has been accessible by train since 1873 (connection to the Munich-Lindau railway line ). The better accessibility for Munich residents in particular led to an upswing in Bruck as an excursion destination. The (medicinal) baths in the Amper were popular, enjoying nature around the market (especially those artists who explored the area by painting) and sledding in winter. Under the electric pioneer and father of the German Museum Oskar von Miller (whose father, the ore caster Ferdinand von Miller , was born in Bruck), Bavaria's first municipal power station went online in 1892.

20th century

Different spellings of Markt Bruck by different authorities prompted the government to define a uniform name: Since August 6, 1908, it has been Fürstenfeldbruck .

Amperbrücke Fürstenfeldbruck

On September 30, 1935, the market was elevated to a town. In 1936, the Fürstenfeldbruck Air Base was completed for the Air Force . In April 1945, American troops occupied the city. After the Second World War, the population rose sharply due to the integration of displaced people .

With the connection to the Munich S-Bahn in 1972, Fürstenfeldbruck gained further importance and the population grew rapidly. In the same year - during the Olympic Games - the liberation of Israeli Olympic participants from the violence of Palestinian terrorists failed on the premises of the air base. Since 1978, as part of the regional reform in Bavaria , Aich, Hasenheide, Lindach, Neulindach, Pfaffing and Puch have also belonged to Fürstenfeldbruck. This could not prevent Fürstenfeldbruck from being only the second largest municipality in the district since 1970, since Germering , which is adjacent to Munich , recorded an even greater population growth.

21st century

The district grew up at the beginning of the new century to over 190,000 residents, the residential development of its eastern regions grew partly very close to the state capital Munich as. On January 1, 2006, Fürstenfeldbruck was elevated to a major district town . Since then, the mayor has held the title of Lord Mayor .

Old town Pruggmayrstraße ⊙

An important topic of discussion in urban development as early as the 20th century and then in the first decade of the new millennium was the development of the Bruck parlor (from the Amper to the New Town Hall) in close connection with the development of road traffic - after all, the B 2 federal highway leads right through the center. After a long discussion, the focus was on the so-called Deichenstegtrasse, on which through traffic should bypass the affected area to the east and with a new Amper crossing. After a referendum against Deichenstegtrasse had previously failed, the majority of the citizens voted against the bypass on September 27, 2009.

The frequency of the S4 is also important in terms of transport policy, as it only runs every 20 minutes, in contrast to other lines, despite the high level of capacity utilization. There is resistance from politics and civil society in the region to the linking of substantial improvements with the (uncertain) realization of the second S-Bahn main line.

Incorporations

On January 1, 1978, the previously independent municipality of Puch and areas of the dissolved municipalities of Aich and Malching were incorporated. On May 1, 1978, small areas of the dissolved community of Biburg were added.

Population development

Between 1988 and 2018 the city grew from 30,313 to 37,677 by 7,364 inhabitants or 24.3%.

Erich Raff (CSU) has been Lord Mayor of the city since May 21, 2017 . He was able to prevail in the runoff election with 52.01% of the valid votes cast against the applicant of the BBV and the Greens, Martin Runge . The early election became necessary because the previous incumbent Klaus Pleil (BBV) had to leave office due to illness. Pleil had only been elected mayor in 2014. Before that, Sepp Kellerer held the post for 18 years.

coat of arms

Because of the long dependency on the Fürstenfeld monastery , an independent Bruck coat of arms came into being relatively late. The first coat of arms was awarded in 1813. Today's coat of arms shows the Bavarian diamonds in the head of the shield , underneath a bridge in front of a red background, which is decorated with a golden cross. The coat of arms unites the Christian (monastic) tradition of the place with the mercantile-bourgeois tradition of the bridge on Fernhandelsstraße.

Buildings

St. Maria Monastery Church
St. Magdalena
  • Parish Church of St. Magdalena . A building from the second half of the 17th century, probably from the Miesbacher Bauschule, renovated in late Rococo forms.

Old Town Hall
  • Old Town Hall. The late establishment of a town hall in a converted commercial building is explained by the long dependence of Markt Bruck on the nearby Fürstenfeld monastery. Because of this political constellation, which was only ended by secularization , a bourgeois administrative center was not an urgent necessity until the 19th century. The building was built from 1866 to 1868 according to plans by the Munich architect Johann Marggraff . Medallions of the ore caster Ferdinand von Miller , who was born in Fürstenfeldbruck and who built the Bavaria, can be seen in the hall of fame above the Theresienwiese . Today weddings take place in the boardroom of the former town hall.

  • St. Sebastian in Puch. Church in the late Gothic style - but with stucco decorations. Much of the church furnishings point to the veneration of the Blessed Edigna , who, according to a legend, led a hermit's life in the neighboring "1000-year-old linden tree" . The writer Julius Langbehn is buried in the small cemetery.
  • Fürstenfeldbruck station, was built in 1871 and 1872.
  • Old slaughterhouse and bathhouse on the land. The old slaughterhouse on the land was opened in April 1911. The architect was Adolf Voll . The concept included the combination of a slaughterhouse and public bathing establishment to improve hygienic conditions. Both institutions could fall back on common technical facilities.
  • Memorial of the Luftwaffe in memory of all fallen and fatally injured members of the Luftwaffe during both world wars, the aviation and the aviation industry. (Established in 1962 by the Luftwaffe Memorial Foundation, handed over to the Air Force on May 20, 1966)
  • The Church of the Redeemer was built in 1925.
