The area of the district of Erding cannot be clearly delimited in terms of landscape and geography. A distinction is made between three types of landscape: the tertiary Isar-Inn hill country in the north and east in the Erdinger Holzland , the glacial moraine area of the Gattergebirge in the south and south-east and the Erdinger Moos as a continuation of the Munich gravel plain . The Viehlaßmoos nature reserve is located here .
The district of Erding is between 430 and 650 meters above sea level. The highest point at 649 meters is located east of Lichtenweg in the municipality of Isen on the southern edge of the district.
Neighboring areas
The district borders in a clockwise direction in the northwest on the districts of Freising , Landshut , Mühldorf am Inn , Ebersberg and Munich .
history
Until 1800
From around 7000 BC First human traces are proven; approx. 2000 BC A lively settlement activity developed. The livestock predominated over the agriculture .
Around 500 BC The Celts settled in the current district. Around 15 BC BC the Romans incorporated the area.
The Romans left behind several streets, such as the one from Riegerau to Langenpreising, which is part of the long-distance route Augsburg - Regensburg , and the one from Chiemgau via Anzing, Altenerding, Langengeisling to Berglern.
In the 5th century, the Romans had to give way to the Teutons and left behind parts of the Roman road network. The long-distance connections Augsburg – Regensburg and those from Chiemgau via Anzing, Altenerding, Langengeisling to Berglern went through today's district. From the 6th century onwards, preferred settlement areas were the river valleys of Sempt and Strogen.
In order to secure the connection between the main towns of Munich and Landshut against the Hochstift Freising , the city of Erding was founded as a ducal base in 1228. When Bavaria was divided in 1255, the courts of Erding and Dorfen became part of Lower Bavaria.
In 1503 and 1504 the Landshut War of Succession devastated the country. A serious confessional crisis arose in the country in the middle of the 16th century, when the immediate imperial Count von Haag from the Fraunberg family , who had their ancestral seat in the Erdingen area, joined the Reformation . In the years after the Thirty Years' War , the Erdinger population achieved significant prosperity. The dominion of Burgrain with the Isen market belonged to the Hochstift Freising until 1803.
Regional courts
In 1803 the district court Erding was established, which during the reforms of Montgelas from 1808 belonged to the Isar district and from 1838 to the district of Upper Bavaria. Life was primarily oriented towards Munich. In 1858, the independent Dorfen regional court was established for 19 communities in the Erding regional court district.
District Office
The Erding District Office was formed in 1862 through the merger of the Erding District Court with the District Court District of Dorfen, which was newly formed in 1858 from 19 communities in the Erding District Court.
On February 1, 1927, the Erding District Office ceded the Pfrombach community to the Freising District Office.
On July 1, 1928, the district office of Erding was enlarged to include the municipality of Ottenhofen belonging to the district office of Ebersberg.
district
On January 1, 1939, as everywhere in the German Reich, the designation district was introduced. So the district office became the district of Erding.
The period after the Second World War was marked by the reconstruction and integration of around ten thousand displaced people .
During the regional reform in Bavaria , the community Schwindkirchen from the district of Mühldorf am Inn and the communities Isen , Mittbach , Sankt Wolfgang and Schiltern from the dissolved district of Wasserburg am Inn were added to the district of Erding on July 1, 1972. On May 1, 1978 the district of Goldach in the municipality of Notzing in the district of Erding was changed to Hallbergmoos in the district of Freising. With this the district of Erding reached its present size.
On May 17, 1992, the new Munich Airport was opened in Erdinger Moos . As a result, there was a noticeable increase in the population, a consistently low unemployment rate and the settlement of new businesses.
The district of Erding has a partnership with the French district of Bastia in Corsica .
On September 23, 2008 the district received the title “ Place of Diversity ” awarded by the Federal Government .
Population development
The district of Erding gained around 35,000 inhabitants or grew by around 38 percent between 1988 and 2008 - the strongest population increase in a district in Bavaria during the period mentioned. Between 1988 and 2018 the district grew from 90,944 to 137,660 by 46,716 inhabitants or 51.4%, the Bavarian peak; In the western district in particular, several formerly rural communities between Munich and Erding near the airport almost doubled their inhabitants in the period mentioned.
The following population figures refer to the area as of May 25, 1987.

Economy and Infrastructure
economy

The district of Erding still shows a predominantly rural picture in which agriculture, handicrafts and commercial medium-sized companies complement each other. In the Future Atlas 2016, the district of Erding was ranked 34th out of 402 districts, municipal associations and independent cities in Germany, making it one of the regions with "very high future prospects". In the 2019 edition, it was ranked 60th out of 401.
With the opening of the new airport in Erdinger Moos in 1992, there was a noticeable increase in the population and the settlement of new businesses.
The Erdinger Weißbräu brewery is based in the district.
Road traffic
In the northwest, the A 92 from Munich via Landshut to Deggendorf crosses part of the district and with the opening of the Forstinning - Pastetten section on August 31, 2011, the A 94 from Munich via Mühldorf to Passau , which has been controversial for many years and has been lamented to the last instance, also reached the southwest region of the county. After it was opened to traffic on October 1, 2019, it will continue in an easterly direction through the Isental valley via Lengdorf , Dorfen and Schwindkirchen to the neighboring district of Mühldorf am Inn.
Furthermore, two federal roads run through the district, the B 15 Regensburg - Haag - Rosenheim in a north-south direction and the B 388 Ismaning - Eggenfelden - Passau - Wegscheid in a west-east direction. 10 state roads and 29 district roads also serve through traffic in the district .
Rail transport
The traffic load in the city of Erding has increased massively since the airport opened. The planned S-Bahn ring closure in combination with the regional train connection should bring relief here.
Local transport
In the district of Erding, all railway lines were built by the Bavarian State Railways .
The main line from Munich to Simbach has crossed it since 1871 . The Hörlkofen , Walpertskirchen , Thann-Matzbach and Dorfen stations are located on the district area . The trains that run here allow a fast connection to Munich, but only every hour, with individual additional trains during rush hour .
The branch line to Erding branches off from this main line in Markt Schwaben in the district of Ebersberg . It was opened in 1872 and is now used by the S-Bahn line S2. The stations of Ottenhofen, St. Koloman, Aufhausen, Altenerding and Erding are in the district .
Other local railway lines were connected to the main line:
- 1898: Dorfen - Moosen - Velden
- 1900: Thann-Matzbach - Haag
Passenger traffic ceased in 1968 on both of the 31-kilometer-long railways.
badges and flags
The coat of arms of the district of Erding was established on October 9, 1953 and confirmed on October 31, 1972.
Blazon : "Under a shield head with the Bavarian rhombuses in silver a jumping, gold-armored red horse." | |
Reasons for the coat of arms: The horse in the coat of arms has a double meaning. For a long time, the district was the horse-richest district in Bavaria. The jumping horse was also the emblem of the imperial county of Haag , which goes back to the seal of the Gurren zu Haag in the first half of the 13th century - the Fraunberg family castle of their count's successors since 1245 is in the district of Erding. The diamonds refer to the ducal court of Erding. One of its main towns was Wartenberg, which had been a castle seat of the Wittelsbach counts and later dukes before the lordly residences of Landshut and Munich were established.
In addition to the coat of arms, the district carries a flag with the colors white-red-yellow. |
