history
Before 1800, most of today's district area belonged either to the Duchy of Württemberg ( Oberamt Tübingen ) or to Upper Austria . In 1803/06 the western Austrian and other non-Wuerttemberg areas of today's district also became part of the Kingdom of Württemberg . In 1811 the upper office Rottenburg am Neckar was established and in 1934 both upper offices were transferred to districts. In 1938 the Tübingen district was enlarged considerably. Almost all the communities in the Rottenburg district and some communities in the Herrenberg district and the Stockach community from the Reutlingen district came to the district area.
During the district reform , the district of Tübingen was enlarged to its present size on January 1, 1973 by adding three communities from the dissolved district of Horb . In return, he had to hand over three communities to the Reutlingen district, from which he also received the Gomaringen community .
As early as April 1, 1972 ( Bieringen ) and December 1, 1972 ( Baisingen and Ergenzingen ), municipalities from the district of Horb were incorporated. They were incorporated into the city of Rottenburg am Neckar .
After the community reform has been completed, the Tübingen district still comprises 15 communities, including 3 cities, which are also major district towns (Rottenburg am Neckar, Tübingen and Mössingen, but the latter only from January 1, 2009). The district of Tübingen is the district with the fewest municipalities in Baden-Württemberg. The largest city in the district is Tübingen, the smallest municipality is Hirrlingen .

traffic
Rail transport
The Neckar is followed by the Stuttgart – Tübingen line opened in 1861 by the Württemberg State Railway (today the “ Neckar-Alb Railway ”). It was continued to Rottenburg in 1861 and to Eyach in 1864. In 1866 it reached Horb, from where it was extended to Rottweil in 1867/68. This section later became part of the " Gäubahn ", which has linked the Ergenzingen station in the district since 1879 . Since 1869, Tübingen has also been the starting point for the " Zollernalbbahn " to Hechingen.
As a cross connection from the Gäubahn near Herrenberg to Tübingen, the " Ammertalbahn " was put into operation in 1909/10 . Eyach train station in Neckar Valley has been the northern end point of the " Hohenzollerische Landesbahn " in the direction of Haigerloch – Hechingen since 1901 .
In 1902, the Badische Lokal-Eisenbahn-Gesellschaft built the Reutlingen – Gönningen branch line, of which only two stations were in the Tübingen district. Of the branch line Böblingen – Dettenhausen opened in 1911 by the Württemberg State Railway, only the terminus belongs to the district; it has operated since 1996 as the regional " Schönbuchbahn " operated by the Württemberg railway company .
The now 86-kilometer railway network is still (or again) in operation except for 8 kilometers; another 8 kilometers were shut down for about 30 years:
- 1972 shut down: Eyach – Haigerloch – Stetten – Hechingen Lbf. (2 km)
- Closed in 1976: Reutlingen – Mähringen – Gomaringen – Gönningen (6 km)
- Decommissioned 1966–1999: Entringen – Altingen – Herrenberg (6 km)
- 1966–1996 closed: Böblingen – Holzgerlingen – Dettenhausen (2 km)
Regional light rail
For several years now, the Tübingen, Reutlingen and Zollernalb districts have been pursuing the establishment of a Neckar-Alb regional light rail system based on the Karlsruhe model . To this end, a tram line from the main train station via the university and university clinics to the Waldhäuser Ost residential area is to be built, which will be connected to the regional train service. A feasibility study showed an extremely positive economic benefit-cost ratio of 2.0.
Road traffic
The district area is touched in the far west by the federal highway 81 Stuttgart - Singen (Hohentwiel) . It is also accessed by federal, state and district roads. The most important are the B 27 Stuttgart - Rottweil and the B 28 Freudenstadt - Reutlingen .
District facilities
The Tübingen district is responsible for the following vocational schools : Vocational school (commercial, commercial and home economics school) Rottenburg am Neckar, commercial school Tübingen, Mathilde Weber school (home economics and agricultural school) Tübingen (including a nutritional and biotechnological high school) and Wilhelm -Schickard-Schule (commercial school) Tübingen also the following special educational and advisory centers with a focus on intellectual development: Lindenschule Rottenburg am Neckar, Kirnbachschule with school kindergarten Tübingen.

Municipalities before the district reform
Before the district reform on January 1, 1973 and the community reform , the old Tübingen district had a total of 54 communities since 1938 , including two towns . 1974 Mössingen was raised to the third city in the Tübingen district.
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 Tübingen was made on December 1, 1971 by several communities that were incorporated into the city of Rottenburg am Neckar . Furthermore, on December 1, 1971, the new municipality of Ammerbuch was established . In the period that followed, the number of communities steadily decreased. Most of the remaining communities in the old Tübingen district merged into the new, enlarged Tübingen district on January 1, 1973 , and six communities became part of the Reutlingen district .
The largest municipality in the old Tübingen district was the district town of Tübingen , which has been a major district town since April 1, 1956 . The smallest community was Dörnach .
The old district of Tübingen last covered an area of 482 km² and had a total of 147,428 inhabitants at the 1970 census .
