Freiham

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Coordinates: 48 ° 8 '26 "  N , 11 ° 24' 36"  O Freiham is a new development area in the west of Munich , which is being built on a previously undeveloped area between the previous Neuaubinger development in the east and the A99 in the west. The neighboring municipality to the west is the large district town of Germering . Freiham is located in the area of ​​the former municipality of Aubing and belongs to the district 22 Aubing-Lochhausen-Langwied . The name is derived from Gut Freiham .

The area is intended as a mixed residential and commercial area, with mainly commercial areas to the south of Bodenseestrasse ( Bundesstrasse 2 ), while the north of it is largely intended for residential development. Over 11,000 apartments are planned. The district is said to have more than 25,000 inhabitants.

Finds from prehistoric and Roman times in the area of ​​the new district indicate earlier settlements (see the section Archaeological Finds in the article History of Aubing ). In the recent past, however, there were no major developments on the site of the new district. The name Freiham is derived from the neighboring Gut Freiham , which was first mentioned in a document in the 12th century. Until the middle of the 20th century, “Freiham” always meant the estate. With the incorporation of Aubing into Munich in 1942, the area of ​​the new district came to the state capital.

The first concrete considerations for founding a new district were made in 1963 in an urban development plan by the Munich city administration. The relief city Freiham was intended for 60,000 inhabitants. Since the city of Munich did not want to bear the development costs alone, the Freiham association was founded. In addition to the city with 14.2%, the Free State of Bavaria with 12.9% and numerous corporations participated. In 1965, the association bought about half of the agricultural land on the estate from the then owner of the Freiham estate , Guido von Maffei. At 60 DM per square meter, the total price was around 100 million DM. Due to the heavy housing construction before the 1972 Summer Olympics in Munich, however, there was an oversupply of apartments after the Games, so that the urban development program in 1975 decided to develop Freiham because of “infrastructural problems that were difficult to solve Succession charges "no longer provided. Two infrastructure problems in particular, namely the non-existent connection to the sewer system and the poor transport connections, prevented further measures until the 1980s.

The Freiham cogeneration plant uses geothermal energy to cover the new district's heating needs.

At the initiative of the city council, the Department for Urban Planning and Building Regulations presented a “Freiham Development Concept” on July 14, 1982, which envisaged 5,000 to 6,000 apartments and commercial buildings on the one hand and the preservation of the landscape on the outskirts on the other. The areas of the association, located more around the property and to the west of the A 99, were part of a landscape belt in this concept. To implement the concept, the planned route for the A 99 was moved to the west, a greater distance from neighboring Neuaubing. In 1992, the city council finally gave the planning department the task of entering into the binding land-use planning. The following draft already provided for 8,450 apartments and 9,200 jobs.

The approximately 350 hectare urban expansion area has been built on since 2006. On April 18, 2007, a Hornbach hardware store opened as the first large retail store in the Freiham Süd industrial park . Opposite there is a Höffner furniture store with around 600 employees since February 21, 2008 .

In spring 2011, the city of Munich launched an urban and landscape planning competition (1st stage of implementation) for the Freiham Nord settlement area. The competition was the basis for the subsequent framework planning and the legally binding development plan with green space no. 2068 Freihm Nord, 1st phase of implementation, developed in parallel.

In the spring of 2017, the City of Munich launched another urban and landscape planning competition for Freiham Nord (2nd phase of implementation). The competition was decided in April 2018 and will again serve as the basis for further urban development planning.

The Freiham Education Campus was opened for the 2019/2020 school year . Furthermore, the primary school Gust-Bayrhammer- Strasse and the primary school on Aubinger Allee were built in the area.

Transport links

The Freiham-Süd sub-area, which has already been largely completed in terms of road construction, has two road connections to Bodenseestrasse in the north and a half-connection to the federal motorway 96 in the south (only in the direction of Munich and coming from Munich). The Munich-Freiham-Mitte junction of the A 99 can be reached after a few hundred meters via Bodenseestrasse .

The Good Freiham had until the end of May 1975 an own S-Bahn station at the former tram -line S5, which was closed because of only about 70 inputs and outs per day. Since then, the building has been used by Deutsche Bahn for other purposes. The platforms were removed in the course of the double-track expansion of the Munich – Herrsching railway line in the mid-1980s.

On September 14, 2013, the new stop in Munich-Freiham went into operation on today's S8 S-Bahn line. It is about a kilometer east of the former train station.

The city bus line 143 of the Münchner Verkehrsgesellschaft (MVG) crosses the area in a north-south direction and connects it to the S-Bahn stop as well as to Neuaubing, Aubing, Langwied and Obermenzing. In addition, the metro bus line 57 runs through the area and connects the Freiham educational campus with the Aubing and Freiham S-Bahn stations.

The Munich traffic development plan of 2006 provides for a connection to Freiham with tram line 19 via Pasing and Aubing . Alternatively, an extension of the U5 underground line ending at Laimer Platz is under discussion.
