District Haardt (District 34)

The Haardt (place name: an der Haardt ) is a district of the independent city of Schweinfurt in Lower Franconia . It is listed as district 34 in the statistics of the city of Schweinfurt. It is located on the largest forest in an urban area, the Haardtwald on the Haardtberg, which gave the district its name. Haardt is a frequently occurring field name and means mountain forest or wooded slope .

geography

location

The Haardt is located in the north of the urban area. It is bordered in the southwest by the Eselshöhe district (district 35), in the northwest by the suburb of Dittelbrunn , in the north by the Haardtwald, which is part of the urban area, and in the southeast by the Hochfeld / Steinberg district (district 41). In addition, the large community of Üchtelhausen with the district of Zell borders the Haardtwald in the east .

topography

The Haardt lies on a foothill of the Schweinfurt Rhön , in a topographically excellent location, on a mountain spur sloping south, between the valleys of the Marienbach in the west and the Zellergrundbach in the east. To the north, the district is protected by the Haardtwald. This location was already used in historical times for fruit and wine growing.

The Haardtwald extends between valleys for 3 km into the Schweinfurt Rhön. At 340.3 m above sea level, it is the second highest point in the city. The Haardtwald is divided into the Vordere Haardt in the south, Hintere Haardt in the north and the Thalerholz in the east.

Urban climate

City temperature profile

The Haardt lies between two cold air supply lanes , which are very advantageous for the urban climate and which at night lead fresh cold air from the Schweinfurt Rhön in the north to the south into the urban area. It is the valley of the Marienbach and in particular the undeveloped Zeller Grund , which is continued to the south in the valley of the Marienbach, which finally leads past the edge of the old town of Schweinfurt .

However, in the 1980s, not far south of the Haardt, a barrier was created in the Marienbach valley through the new building area on the Breiten Wiese (to the Hochfeld / Steinberg district ).

history

Haardtwald

The area in the north of Schweinfurt has been inhabited since more prehistoric times (see: Dittelbrunn, Prehistory ) and several (former) localities were first mentioned in documents as early as the 8th century . As early as the 8th century, a long-distance road over the Salzburg (near Bad Neustadt ) to northern Germany led through the Haardtwald to the current road to the shooting house .

The shooting house in the middle of the Haardtwald, on the 334 m high Haardtberg, was initially built as a simple warming room for hunters. It was later expanded as a meeting point for hunters from town and district.

In addition, a Wehrmacht shooting range was built and the shooting house then became an officer's canteen. After the Second World War , the shooting house was converted into an inn. The US Army Garrison Schweinfurt now used the neighboring 13 hectare area, which was called the Victory shooting range , until it was withdrawn in 2014. There are currently no known plans for a subsequent use of the shooting range area (2018).

district

On the Haardtberg there was a historical place of execution of the imperial city Schweinfurt. The area of ​​today's district on the Bergsporn and the Haardtwald to the north bore the field name Harthäuschen in the 19th century . On the mountain spur there were orchards on both sides of a road that led straight to the Haardthäuschen, a refuge that is still preserved today and a historical landmark. On the western slope of the Marienbach , above the road to Dittelbrunn, there were vineyards named Gaukenleiten .

After the abandonment of viticulture from the beginning of the 20th century, the first buildings in the area of ​​today's district gradually arose on the plots of the vineyards. However, it was only a disordered, loose urban development that stretched above Dittelbrunner Strasse in an 800 m long strip to the city limits. This is where the Café Markfelder excursion restaurant, which existed until the first time after the Second World War , was located in a house that is still preserved today.

The new Haardt district was not created until 1972, at the same time as the larger Deutschhof district . The route of the historic Chaussee was not retained, but the mountain spur was opened up by a ring road, the Matthias-Grünewald-Ring , on which the city bus has been running ever since. The side streets were also named after the names of painters. In the 1963 draft of the city planning office, a school and two churches were planned, which was not implemented.

Heeresstrasse

The 9 km long military road built by the US Army Garrison in Schweinfurt after the Second World War is closed to general traffic (except for agriculture and forestry). It combines the former Ledward Barracks with the former training area on Brönnhof , passing through the Haardtwald at the former Victory -Schießanlage.

On February 29, 2016, the city acquired conversion areas totaling 48 hectares from the Federal Agency for Real Estate Tasks (BImA). The areas of Heeresstrasse in the city area were also transferred to the city of Schweinfurt by BImA. The Heeresstraße is currently (2018), except for the driveway from Dittelbrunn to the Waldgaststätte Schießhaus, still closed to public traffic due to structural damage and because it leads through a water protection area at the Seelvater viewpoint in the northwest of the city area. Until the US garrison in Schweinfurt was dissolved in 2014, the road could only be used because other safety regulations apply for military purposes.

Since Schweinfurt does not have a north-western tangent , Heeresstraße has always had a high public profile, which is why its rapid opening to general traffic, as a relief to the core city, became a main concern of the population in the course of the US conversion . For this purpose, a junction with Bundesstraße 286 would have to be created, which crosses Heeresstraße via a bridge and this would also be widened. However, the Heeresstraße runs on a route that is used solely for military purposes and that cuts through the open landscape at will, without reference to the settlement structures. Therefore, in the Transport Development Plan 2030 for the city of Schweinfurt, three (out of a total of four) variants were proposed to expand the Heeresstraße as a rural road with no construction.

Social structure

Foreigners 7.4% 13.2%

The Haardt, like the suburb of Dittelbrunn , which is connected to the district , has been a preferred single-family residential area for Schweinfurt families since the 1970s, which can also be seen in the Haardt due to the age structure. With a foreigner quota of 7.4%, the district has a low proportion of foreign citizens.

This is also reflected in the election results. In the 2017 federal election , the FDP achieved 14.1% of the Haardt, the best result of all Schweinfurt districts.

In the 1990s, a residential complex with several large houses was built for US families, which has been available to the general public as new living space since the Schweinfurt US garrison was dissolved in 2014. The 11,000 Americans on both sides of the city limits were not recorded in the population statistics, which is why currently (2016) in the Haardt, as well as some other districts and suburbs, a statistical increase in population can be expected.

Description of the district

The Haardt is completely designated as a 30 km / h zone. In the district there are residential developments with single-family houses of high standards, villas on the hillside with a wide view and some, mostly generously designed point and apartment houses. In 1972, the then reconstruction GmbH (WAG) only built a residential complex with three point buildings of simpler standards, with asbestos-cement facade cladding, in the southern area . Some of the residential complexes on the Haardt were created in a way that is suitable for the elderly. The structural development of the district has been completed since the 1990s.

Economy and Infrastructure

On the immediate edge of the district is a discount market with a bakery branch and post office, which is, however, assigned to the Hochfeld / Steinberg . Also on the edge, belonging to Eselshöhe , is a small business center with two banks. The Haardt itself is the Schweinfurt district with the least infrastructure, without a parish, kindergarten, school, after-school care center or youth facility. However, there are many leisure facilities in the area (see: Leisure ) and schools, right up to the modern multi-purpose and event hall in the adjacent residential suburb of Dittelbrunn , in which u. a. Thomas Gottschalk performed.

Public transport

  • City bus route Haardt , every 20 to 30 minutes during peak times
