The newer Spätaussiedler -Quartier width lawn was statistically associated high field / Steinberg, a typical district of Schweinfurter middle, with a very low proportion of migrants . Although Hochfeld / Steinberg does not form a unit historically, topographically or functionally with the Breite Wiese, which means that the social statistics for the actual district have been distorted and are less informative.

The bourgeois district is also reflected in the election results. In the 2017 federal election , the Greens achieved the best result of all Schweinfurt districts with 9.6%.

Districts and locations

The district has almost exclusively good residential areas. Only in the district of Hochfeld along the main access road Albertistraße and the shopping street Segnitzstraße (apartment blocks) are there medium-sized residential areas. The area between Harald-Hambergstrasse and Göteborgstrasse, with dense residential block development and the blue skyscraper , has not been designated by HypoVereinsbank .

High field

The Hochfeld (since 1956) has the best image among the Schweinfurt districts, which is why developers often refer to adjacent areas as Hochfeld . It is considered a prominent quarter, although it is only a middle-class residential area, in contrast to the neighboring, but generally less known, villa district of Kiliansberg . The preferred residential area is between Hochfeld-, Gustav-Adolf-, Elsa Brandström and Deutschhöfer Straße. It contains almost only single and semi-detached houses and apartments in the northeast. In the post-war period, the district was on the edge of the built-up urban area, but due to the great north-eastern expansion of the urban development, it increasingly “moved” to a more central but still quiet location. Which greatly increased the value of real estate , which is rarely offered on the free market, but is mostly passed on to the next generation in families.

In historical times the high field was interspersed with vineyards.

Steinberg

The Steinberg (since around 1955) is also a preferred residential area, predominantly with single and double houses, only on the upper Steinberg with rows of apartment blocks. The tallest building in town, the Blue Skyscraper, is also located here . The 25-storey building from 1964 was the tallest residential tower in Germany at the time. At the upper edge of the Steinberg, in the city ​​forest , the already rich city opened the lavish and modern summer pool in 1958, which was expanded into the leisure pool Silvana in the 1990s .

At the foot of the Steinberg, in the Zeller Grund , are the sports, tennis and indoor facilities of TG 48 Schweinfurt , one of the largest clubs in Lower Franconia and a traditional club for the Schweinfurt bourgeoisie .

Blade height

The Klingenhöhe (since the 1920s) is a small residential area on the eastern slope of the Mariental. It is bordered in the north by the Deutschhöferstrasse, in the east by the Hochfeldstrasse, in the south by the Klingenbrunnstrasse and in the west by the Marienbach. Mainly with single-family and smaller multi-family houses, in the lower area from the 1920s and above from the 1930s.

On Klingenbrunnstrasse there are entrances to the large beer cellars of the Schweinfurt brewery (see northern part of the city ), which lead into the Teilberg and served as an air raid shelter during World War II .

Wide meadow

In the 1980s , a quarter for ethnic German repatriates was built in the valley of the Marienbach , on the Breiten Wiese , with a corresponding, very high proportion of dual nationals .

Wildlife park on the oaks

The wildlife park on the oaks is a wildlife park with an integrated leisure facility and a show farm. It has an area of ​​18  hectares , 450 animals and, with 600,000 visitors annually, is one of the most popular recreational and leisure facilities in Bavaria . Two larger beer gardens are located in or near the wildlife park.

Hundertäcker sports park

In the north of the district, surrounded by the city forest, the Hundertäcker sports park was built around the 1980s , with a hockey club and the older systems of TV Jahn, which were integrated. In addition to its headquarters at the Willy Sachs Stadium , the Weiß-Blau tennis club set up large tennis facilities here . The club could not hold its own against the later golf boom as a competitive sport, the facilities at the Hundertäckern were neglected and dismantled. In 2008, the newly formed tennis club Schweinfurt succeeded the traditional club and limited itself to the headquarters from 1937. In 2010, the Firlefanz juggling and artistry center opened on the Hundertäckern. In 2015, the German Alpine Club Section Schweinfurt opened a large climbing hall with 120 routes and a 14 meter high main wall with a five meter overhang on part of the former tennis facility .
