The Feilenforst , formerly also called Geisenfelder Forst, is the largest contiguous forest area in the Pfaffenhofen district with around 2400 hectares . It extends from Kastlberg in the south to Ernsgaden in the north and from Baar-Ebenhausen in the west to Geisenfeldzüge in the east. It belonged to the Geisenfeld Forestry Office , which was dissolved in the course of the Bavarian forest reform. Today the Office for Food, Agriculture and Forests in Pfaffenhofen and the Freising Forestry Company of the Bavarian State Forests are responsible for the file forest .

history

When the file forest was still a nameless primeval forest, Count Eberhard von Ebersberg was enfeoffed with the file forest by Emperor Otto. Count Eberhard, as the founder of the Geisenfeld Monastery , handed over the file forest to it in 1030. The abbesses of the monastery later left the hunt in the file forest to the Bavarian dukes and electors. They organized numerous elaborate court hunts in the forest.

In the Middle Ages , the file forest was a light mixed deciduous forest, later, when the forest use set different standards, the forest was largely transformed into a conifer monoculture.

In 1935, construction of the Manching military airfield began on the northern edge of the file forest . After the end of the war, the bombed shipyards were dismantled and everything that brought money was sold. It was not until 1955 that the construction of a new concrete runway began, which today is almost 3 km long. The airport site now has two runways. The Wehrtechnische Dienststelle 61, Airbus Defense and Space and IMA GmbH are based on the site.
