Hangard is a district of the district town of Neunkirchen (Saar) located northeast of the city center . Until the end of 1973, Hangard was an independent municipality.

location

Hangard is in the Oster Valley at 260–330 m above sea level.

history

Hangard developed on the former ban of Wiebelskirchen . In 1692 the first settler, Jean Mathieu, settled in the "Hangarden uf der Oster". The old name can also be found in the street name In den Hanggärten . The first residents were French Catholics who settled in the county of Saarbrücken .

As part of the regional and administrative reform in Saarland , the previously independent municipality Hangard was assigned to the city of Neunkirchen on January 1, 1974 .

At the beginning of the 2005 school year, the previously independent primary school in Hangard was merged with the “Friedrich von Schiller” primary school in Wiebelskirchen. The hangard location then served as a branch of the Wiebelskirch elementary school. The school building in Hangard has not been used as a school since the 2012/2013 school year. Since then, all children have been taught in Wiebelskirchen. The former school building has been used as a day nursery since the renovation work was completed in summer 2013 and is used by local associations.

Infrastructure

Hangard is connected to the transport network via the L121, which leads to Wiebelskirchen and Wellesweiler in the south and to Steinbach , Fürth and Münchwies in the north .

In March 2015, the Saarland telecommunications company inexio redeemed a DSL promise for Hangard, in which it was assured that from February 2016 all households in the village will be supplied with a broadband internet connection of up to 100 megabits per second. However, due to a delay in the construction work, this date was postponed by several months. The broadband connections have been available since September 22, 2016.
