history

The district of Esslingen goes back to the old Württemberg Oberamt Eßlingen , which was established in 1803 after the former free imperial city of Eßlingen was transferred to Württemberg . It has been changed several times throughout history. From 1810 it belonged to the Landvogtei Rothenberg and from 1818 to the Neckar District , which was dissolved in 1924. In 1934 the Oberamt was renamed the District of Eßlingen , and according to the law on the division of the federal states of April 24, 1938, the now District of Esslingen was enlarged on October 1, 1938 to include some municipalities from the dissolved District Superior Office of Stuttgart and the districts of Schorndorf, Kirchheim unter Teck and Göppingen.

On October 16, 1964, the state government approved the change from the previous spelling to the current spelling of the Esslingen district .

During the district reform , the Esslingen district was enlarged on January 1, 1973 to include the Nürtingen district (excluding Grafenberg ).

On January 1, 1975, the city of Leinfelden and the municipality of Musberg from the Boeblingen district were added. With that it reached its present size.

After the community reform has been completed, the Esslingen district still comprises 44 communities, including 13 towns and of these in turn six large district towns (Esslingen am Neckar, Filderstadt, Kirchheim unter Teck, Leinfelden-Echterdingen, Nürtingen and Ostfildern). The largest city in the district is Esslingen am Neckar, the smallest municipality is Altdorf near Nürtingen. In 1980 German right-wing extremists from the German Action Groups bombed the Esslingen district office and the district administrator's house.

coat of arms

The coat of arms of the district of Esslingen shows in gold above a (awakened) shield base roughened diagonally in black and gold with divisions, a red armored and red-tongued black eagle, topped with a gold horn on a gold fetter. The coat of arms was awarded to the district of Esslingen on August 13, 1975 by the Baden-Württemberg Ministry of the Interior .

The coat of arms was taken from the coat of arms symbols of the earlier districts or rulers. The eagle symbolizes the formerly free imperial city of Esslingen, Rauten and Hifthorn are taken from the old district coat of arms of Nürtingen, whereby the diamonds symbolize the rule of Teck (including the city of Kirchheim unter Teck) and the Hifthorn the city of Nürtingen.

Before the district reform , the (old) district of Esslingen had a different coat of arms. It showed a red armored black eagle in gold under a black deer pole, whose chest was covered with three green labels standing next to each other. This coat of arms was awarded to the Esslingen district on October 1st, 1951 by the state government of Württemberg-Baden . The eagle should point to the former imperial city of Esslingen, the stag to the affiliation to Württemberg and the three labels to the three landscapes in the district (Schurwald, Filder and Neckar valley).

traffic

Airport

The Stuttgart Airport is located on the eastern edge of the urban area of Leinfelden-Echterdingen. Most of the runways are in the area around Filderstadt-Bernhausen.

Local public transport

As early as 1845, the later Württemberg State Railroad ran from Stuttgart to the district town of Esslingen, in 1846 on to Plochingen and in 1847 as the Filsbahn to cross the Alb in the direction of Geislinger Steige-Ulm.

From Plochingen in 1859, the Neckar-Alb Railway joined the Neckar to Nürtingen – Reutlingen. From this branched off in Wendlingen (then Unterboihingen) in 1864, the Teckbahn of the Kirchheimer railway company , which was extended in 1899 by the state railway to Oberlenningen. Another branch line, now closed, was the Kirchheim (Teck) Süd – Weilheim (Teck) railway line, which opened in 1908 .

The Tälesbahn Nürtingen – Neuffen has belonged to the Württemberg Railway Company since it opened in 1900 .

On the Fildern on the southern edge of Stuttgart, a diverse local transport system, the Filderbahn Company, developed over the course of more than a hundred years . The S-Bahn (S2 and S3) to Stuttgart Airport, which went into operation from 1989 to 1993, partly uses the route of the Vaihingen – Echterdingen line opened by the Deutsche Reichsbahn in 1920 in Leinfelden-Echterdingen, from which a branch to Waldenbuch branched off in 1928 in Leinfelden. In autumn 2001, the S2 stretch from the airport to Filderstadt- Bernhausen was extended.

In Echterdingen, the Möhringen – Neuhausen line was linked, which was built by the Filderbahn company in 1897 in meter gauge and converted to standard gauge in 1902. The Möhringen – Echterdingen section was replaced by a Möhringen – Leinfelden connection, which was rebuilt in 1928 as an electric overland railway in meter gauge and - parallel to the standard gauge railway to Neuhausen - was extended to Echterdingen Ort. Since 1990, a standard-gauge light rail (line U5) has run from Stuttgart only to Leinfelden Bahnhof, from where the S-Bahn continues.

The Esslingen am Neckar tram was opened in Esslingen in 1912 , and in 1919 it connected to the Stuttgart tram network (SSB). It was replaced in 1944 by the Esslingen am Neckar trolleybus . In 1926, the Esslingen – Nellingen – Denkendorf tram was added, which also went up to the Filderhöhe until 1978; Another line branched from Nellingen to Neuhausen in 1929.

In the area of ​​the railways, only two shorter route sections were closed:

• 1955: Leinfelden – Musberg – Waldenbuch ( Siebenmühlentalbahn , 11.7 km)
• 1982: Kirchheim Süd – Holzmaden – Weilheim (7.7 km)

In 2000 the SSB opened the Stuttgart – Nellingen light rail.

The Transport and Tariff Association Stuttgart (VVS) is responsible for public transport .

Private transport

The federal motorway 8 Stuttgart - Ulm runs through the district in a west-east direction . The main highways are the B10 Stuttgart-Ulm, the B27 Stuttgart- Tübingen , the B 312 airport Reutlingen and the B 313 Plochingen-Reutlingen.

Municipalities before the district reform

Before the district reform on January 1, 1973 and before the community reform , the (old) district of Esslingen had a total of 33 communities since 1938, including two cities. In 1938 the municipality of Wernau (Neckar) was formed from the municipalities of Pfauhausen and Steinbach , which was elevated to a town in 1968. In 1942 the communities of Plieningen and Birkach were incorporated into the city of Stuttgart.

On March 7, 1968, the state parliament of Baden-Württemberg set the course for a community reform . With the law to strengthen the administrative power of smaller municipalities , it was possible for smaller municipalities to voluntarily unite to form larger municipalities. The beginning in the old district of Esslingen was made on January 1st, 1971 by the communities of Hegenlohe and Thomashardt, which merged to form the new community of Lichtenwald. In the period that followed, the number of communities steadily decreased. All of the remaining communities in the old Esslingen district went into the new, enlarged Esslingen district on January 1, 1973 .

The largest municipality in the old Esslingen district was the district town of Esslingen am Neckar , which has been a major district town since April 1, 1956 . The smallest community was Hegenlohe.

The old district of Esslingen and included most recently an area of 253 square kilometers had in the census in 1970 a total of 251,141 inhabitants.

The table shows the population development of the old Esslingen district up to 1970. All population figures are census results.
