The Frauenkopf is a wooded, 462.7 m above sea level. NHN high mountain southeast of the city center of Stuttgart , after which a district in the south of the Stuttgart-Ost district is named. On the real estate market it is considered a gem, for city dwellers as a “green island”. The eastern mountain flank already belongs to the suburban district Hedelfingen .
Name and geography
The woman's head takes its name from a shepherd's chapel that existed until around 1530 and was consecrated to "our dear lady". It was probably destroyed in the course of the Reformation . There was a barrow at the foot of the mountain ; the Fuchsrain on the northern slope is considered a Stone Age settlement.
Starting from the north-east bordering Raichberg , a large forest area stretches over the Frauenkopf, the Bopser (also called Hoher Bopser ) and the Dornhalde in a south-westerly direction to the Nesenbach valley, which is interrupted by the villages of Degerloch and Sonnenberg . In the south it forms the transition to the extensive Filder plateau.
The mountain bears the distinctive 192 m high Stuttgart telecommunications tower on its gentle summit . This Deutsche Telekom transmission tower, which was built from 1970 to 1972 from reinforced concrete, is - in contrast to the nearby Stuttgart television tower - not open to the public. The unusually low but wide gallery, which at 33 m only reaches just above the treetops, is the operating room of the mobile phone and radio operators.
In the immediate vicinity of the telecommunications tower there is a Protestant holiday forest home for children from 4 to 14 years.
Frauenkopf district
In 1937 the Rohracker community , to which the Frauenkopf belonged, was incorporated into Stuttgart. Today's district of the same name, created in 1956, is one of the larger in Stuttgart with an area of around 5 km², but only has around 800 inhabitants, as it is only populated in the east - towards Hedelfingen / Rohracker. The dimensions of the settlement, which provided for the first development plan from 1929, have only changed slightly to this day. Due to the secluded and quiet residential area, which is not far from the city center, real estate prices are correspondingly high.
In the north, on the border with the Gablenberg district , there is the Merz School ( Gänsheide ) with an attached boarding school. The other neighboring districts are Wangen in the northeast, which is already on the Neckar , Sillenbuch in the south and Stuttgart-Süd in the west.
traffic
The Frauenkopf can be reached from the Stuttgart valley basin and the Filder plain via Pischekstrasse and Jahnstrasse . Frauenkopfstraße branches off to the settlement at the Stelle tram stop . The narrow Speidelweg connects the Frauenkopf with Rohracker and the Neckar Valley. It is often used by local traffic as an alternative exit or driveway to the Filder, which has been criticized by residents for years. However, the residents of the Frauenkopf themselves are dependent on this connection, as the closest schools and shops are in Rohracker.
The public transport opens the settlement woman's head with the bus line 64, as a feeder to the stop point is used for the rail line U15. The bus, which serves three stops in town, will be replaced by a taxi line from the Taxi-Auto-Zentrale Stuttgart with mostly individual stops from around 7:30 p.m. due to the low number of people.
church
On the Frauenkopf there is a Catholic church that was consecrated in 1970 and a Protestant church that was consecrated on April 12, 1955. The originally Catholic Church of the Annunciation was leased to the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church in 2007 .
Sports
In the district there is a soccer field of the SKV-Rohracker with an adjacent restaurant.
