geography
Geographical location
Kornwestheim is located in the southwestern Neckar Basin on the eastern edge of the Strohgau on the so-called Long Field . In the urban area, the Holzbach or Gänsbach flows eastward to the Neckar . Kornwestheim is about ten kilometers north of downtown Stuttgart .
Neighboring communities
The municipality of Möglingen in the west, the cities of Ludwigsburg in the north and Remseck am Neckar in the east, all of which belong to their own district of Ludwigsburg, border on Kornwestheim . To the south is the county-level state capital Stuttgart , adjacent are the municipalities Stammheim and Zuffenhausen .
City structure
The urban area of Kornwestheim consists of the core city and the Pattonville district . The latter only became part of the town of Kornwestheim in the early 1990s. Originally it belonged mainly to the district of Aldingen (today: Remseck am Neckar). In 1954 the settlement was built there by the US Army. After their withdrawal in the summer of 1993, the newly founded Pattonville-Sonnenbergsiedlung association bought the land from the federal government and divided it up between the city of Kornwestheim and the municipality of Remseck am Neckar. After that the new district was settled civilly. New buildings and renovations of the houses took place. Since then, the western part has belonged to the town of Kornwestheim, the larger, eastern part to the town of Remseck am Neckar. In the south of Pattonville borders the Kornwestheim / Ludwigsburg airfield.
In the core town of Kornwestheim, a distinction is occasionally made between residential areas or geographical district names (Kornwestheim-Süd, Weststadt, Oststadt), but their boundaries are usually not precisely defined. In recent years, new residential and commercial areas have emerged in the east of the city, primarily on the former sites of the Ludendorff and Wilkin barracks, which were used by American troops until the early 1990s. In the west of the city, the salamander area with outlet stores was built on parts of the former shoe factory. Other parts of the factory were used for other commercial purposes and loft apartments were built.
In the Kornwestheim area are the abandoned villages of Hoftstätt, Birglingen, Haiynoltz as well as Liebersheim and Wihingen (?). The Laborierbau, Solitudeallee and Tambour residential areas were closed in 1973. The residential area Am Sonnenberg came to Ludwigsburg in 1993.

history
Origin of the place and development
A Roman road led through the Kornwestheim area coming from Cannstatt , the course of which was partially preserved as a dirt road. Part of it was restored in Kornwestheim-Ost near the Theodor-Heuss-Realschule . In the western part of the city towards the motorway ran an even older road from the Bronze Age .
Kornwestheim as a place probably originated in the 4th / 5th. Century as a scattered Alemannic settlement. "Westheim" was first mentioned in a document around 780 AD in a document copy within the Codex Laureshamensis of the Lorsch monastery . The name form "Kornwestheim" appeared for the first time in 1472, in today's spelling it has been in use since the 17th century.
It is assumed that the original Westheim is a western settlement, in contrast to an eastern settlement Ostheim , whose location is unknown. More recent research suspects that the eastern reference settlement was the neighboring town of Aldingen. For centuries Kornwestheim was a prosperous farming village that benefited from the fertility of the loess soils in the immediate vicinity. In 1303 the Counts of Asperg sold Kornwestheim to the Dukes of Württemberg. At first it belonged to the Office Cannstatt and from 1719 to the Office or from 1756 Oberamt Ludwigsburg , which as such was part of the Kingdom of Württemberg , which existed until 1918, from 1806 .
Between 1770 and 1781 the theologian and engineer Philipp Matthäus Hahn lived and worked as a pastor in Kornwestheim. The rectory with an integrated workshop (Pfarrstrasse 7), which still exists today, was built especially for him in 1771 (by Wilhelm Friedrich Goez ).
City development from the middle of the 19th century
The convenient location with its own train station of the Royal Württemberg State Railways , which has existed since 1846, brought Kornwestheim a large increase in population from the end of the 19th century, mainly due to the construction of the freight bypass line in 1896 and the marshalling yard from 1913-1919 as well as the establishment of factories: the shoemaker Jakob Sigle , who had already opened his workshop here in 1885, founded his shoe factory J. Sigle & Cie. In 1891 together with the businessman Max Levi , which later became known as Salamander AG . The A. Stotz Albert Stotz machine works followed in 1898, and the Kreidler company opened a business here in 1939 .
With effect from April 1, 1931 Kornwestheim received town charter. From the Oberamt Ludwigsburg, the city of Kornwestheim was transferred to the district in 1934, to the old district in 1938, and thus from 1973 to the Ludwigsburg district, which is in its current form, due to the district reform .
As part of the armament of the Wehrmacht , the Hindenburg barracks and the Ludendorff barracks for tank units were built from 1934 and Kornwestheim became a garrison town in 1935/36 . The Second World War claimed numerous victims. Allied air strikes killed 162 people and destroyed 160 buildings. Overall, Kornwestheim was destroyed to 8%. 478 Kornwestheim soldiers died on the front. On April 21, 1945, the US troops took over the occupation and then continued to use the existing barracks until 1993. The former Hindenburg barracks received the name Wilkin Barracks from them .
Since Kornwestheim had become part of the American zone of occupation , the city had belonged to the newly founded state of Württemberg-Baden since 1945 , which was merged into the current state of Baden-Württemberg in 1952.
Kornwestheim became a major district town on April 1, 1956 . Due to its location between Stuttgart and Ludwigsburg, the city could not incorporate any neighboring communities during the territorial reform in 1973. The urban area has therefore shown a more or less coherent picture since then. Only the division of the Pattonville settlement in the east of Kornwestheim, which was used by the US Army from 1954 to the beginning of the 1990s, gave the city a new district. The eastern, larger part of Pattonville, however, belongs to the neighboring town of Remseck am Neckar.
Religions
Kornwestheim originally belonged to the diocese of Constance and was assigned to the land chapter of Cannstatt. As in all of Württemberg , the Reformation was introduced in Kornwestheim from 1534 , as a result of which the place was predominantly Protestant for many centuries. At first Kornwestheim belonged to the deanery or church district Cannstatt , later to the deanery or church district Ludwigsburg of the Evangelical Church in Württemberg . The originally only parish (Martinskirche from 1516 ff.) Was divided because of its size. The Johannesgemeinde (built in 1921 as an emergency church, today's Johanneskirche with parish hall from 1955), the Paulusgemeinde (church from 1968) and the Thomasgemeinde (parish hall from 1975, which is used ecumenically) emerged. Today these together form the entire parish of Kornwestheim. The Martinsgemeinde also looks after the Protestants in the Pattonville district (some of which also belong to the town of Remseck am Neckar ). The Evangelical Holy Spirit Church, consecrated in 2001, is located in Pattonville, and services are held here regularly.
At the end of the 19th century, Catholics also moved to Kornwestheim. In 1920, a separate parish was established for the young community with the St. Martinus Church, which was rebuilt in 1958. The Thomas parish hall, built in 1975, is also used by the Catholics. The parish of St. Martinus Kornwestheim now forms its own pastoral care unit within the Rottenburg-Stuttgart diocese .
In addition to the two large churches, there are also free churches in Kornwestheim , including a United Methodist Church . The New Apostolic Church is also represented in Kornwestheim.

Economy and Infrastructure
Company then and now
The development of Kornwestheim is inextricably linked with shoe manufacturing and the Salamander brand . In 1885, the then 23-year-old shoemaker Jakob Sigle opened a shoemaker's workshop on Jakobstrasse. Six years later, he founded the mechanical shoe factory J. Sigle & Cie., Which he founded together with the businessman Max Levi. since 1930 Salamander AG. With this began the industrialization of the place and the rise to the city.
In 1905 the company Jakob Sigle & Cie. and the entrepreneur Rudolf Moos jointly run the Salamander shoe brand. In 1967, at the time of greatest prosperity, Salamander employed almost 18,000 people worldwide in shoe manufacturing.
From the beginning of the 1970s, with the decline of the German shoe industry, the further development of Salamander was crisis-ridden. Salamander AG developed into a conglomerate with the business areas of shoes, real estate, industry and service. The company was taken over by EnBW AG in 2000 ; In 2003 the shoe division was spun off from the group again. In the same year, the salamander plant in Kornwestheim was closed.
At the turn of the year 2009/2010 the real estate project company Salamander-Areal Kornwestheim mbH acquired the historic building complex with a total area of approx. 90,000 m². The company is part of the Immovation AG group of companies based in Kassel. The central land register archive for Baden-Württemberg was housed in part of the building .
The companies Albert Stotz (iron foundry) and Kreidler (mopeds, etc.) have also shaped the city's history . Today the names "Kreidlergelände" and "Stotzgebiet" are reminiscent of the companies that used to be located there. At the end of Stotzstraße, a “gate” and a fountain, made from a foundry container, remind of the former use of this area by the Stotz company.
Kornwestheim's convenient location on the A 81 and on the Mannheim - Stuttgart railway with the Kornwestheim Rbf marshalling yard and passenger station (PBF) determines its current economic structure. A large number of small and medium-sized companies are based in Kornwestheim - all in all, there is great economic potential.
The retail trade in Kornwestheim is strongly influenced by the pull of the larger cities Stuttgart and Ludwigsburg , whose centers can both be reached by S-Bahn or by car in less than 15 minutes. The withdrawal of the American occupation and the abandonment of the large garrison settlement of Pattonville meant the loss of an important economic factor in the early 1990s. Afterwards, large commercial areas as well as residential areas and green areas were created.
traffic
Road traffic
The B 27 runs through the city and continues to Heilbronn when coming from Stuttgart . The road, which has been developed as a motorized expressway, has three junctions in Kornwestheim. The next motorway junctions are Stuttgart-Zuffenhausen and Ludwigsburg- Süd on the A 81 .

(The Frankenbahn Stuttgart – Würzburg runs through Kornwestheim, but doesn't stop there.) Local public transport is also served by several bus routes. All lines can be used at uniform prices within the Stuttgart Transport and Tariff Association (VVS) . Directly at the station is in the Stammheimer street Fernbushalt North Stuttgart / Kornwestheim, primarily by the company Flixbus is approached.
The marshalling yard is located on the western edge of Kornwestheim . Around 1,600 freight wagons are put together into new freight trains there every day . This makes it the second largest train formation facility in Baden-Württemberg. One of the most important and most modern container transshipment points of Deutsche Bahn is attached to the marshalling yard . The development of a freight transport center is also planned on the site , which in this case is understood to be an industrial park for companies using a siding .
The Deutsche Bahn motorail trains used to run weekly from Kornwestheim to Narbonne in southern France and back. There were also several times a week car train connections to Westerland and Sassnitz . However, all motorail train connections from Kornwestheim were discontinued with the start of the 2007/2008 winter timetable.

Today's city center lies between the Stuttgart – Ludwigsburg railway line, Stuttgarter Strasse and the town hall, which was built between 1933 and 1935. The Kornwestheim town hall tower also serves as a water tower - a landmark of the city that can be seen from afar . In today's adjoining inner city are the 20th century Catholic St. Martinus Church (built in 1920, today 's building designed by Hans Herkommer from 1958) and the ensemble of the Protestant Johanneskirche with parish hall built in 1955 from Gönninger tuff. The Christ Church of the Methodists (1913/14) and the chapel of the apostolic community (1929) were also built in the 20th century.
The Protestant Martinskirche , the oldest church in Kornwestheim, was built on the site of previous buildings dating back to the 7th century in the years 1516 to 1524 on behalf of the Bebenhausen monastery by the builder Hans von Ulm in the late Gothic style. It is located in the center of the old village of Kornwestheim, northeast of today's city center, surrounded by old half-timbered houses such as the Widdumhof and the Meuleshof . Next to the church is the tithe barn, formerly the delivery point for the 10th part of the harvest, now converted into a hall.

Parks
Behind the culture and congress center Das K and the market square, in the middle of Kornwestheim, is the Salamander city park. It was completed in 1958 thanks to a donation from Salamander AG on an area of 9.5 hectares. Since it has an artificial lake, it was something special at the time - for the size of the city - and is still a central resort today. The largest festival in Kornwestheim, the Kornwestheimer Tage, takes place here on the 1st weekend in June. The city garden from 1938 is located between the Salamander city park and the old village center.
