Lengfeld (local: Lempfeld ) is a district and at the same time a district of Würzburg in the northeast of the city. The formerly independent municipality was incorporated into the city of Würzburg on January 1, 1978 as part of the municipal reform.

While Lengfeld was still a very small settlement in 1954, stretching south and east of the Sankt-Laurentius-Kirche, the northern slope of the Pilziggrund and an area beyond the Kürnach were built on until 1977. Most recently, the residential area on the Greinberg was built, as well as the industrial parks along the B 19 on the back of the Greinberg and along the B 8 on the Wöllrieder Höhe.

economy

In addition to some agricultural businesses, there are also craft businesses , medium-sized companies and industrial companies (Brose, formerly Siemens VDO ). Also on Lengfelder area there is a mail center the post office and the prison Würzburg , one of the most modern prisons in Germany is. On the outskirts of Lengfeld, federal highways 19 and 8 intersect at the Greinberg junction.

In Lengfeld, many commercial enterprises settled around the federal highways. There are currently four hardware stores, two electrical stores, several grocery stores and many other businesses in the community and industrial area. In particular, most of the Würzburg car dealerships are located in Lengfeld. A new junction was built on the B 19 to open up the IKEA market, mostly in Lengfeld .

In 1876 the gymnastics and sports club (TSV) Lengfelds was founded. Its football club will play in the Northwest Regional League in the 2019/2020 season . The first men's team in the volleyball division plays in the Bayernliga Nord.

education

In Lengfeld there are five kindergartens (the first in the village was opened on September 1, 1890 as a nursery school ) and a primary school.

Church life

The Lengfeld rectory was built in 1811. From 1958 Sunday services were held in the Rosenmühle , which was demolished in the 1980s . In December 1975, an ecumenical center was inaugurated from 1973 , in which a Catholic and a Protestant church are integrated in one overall facility. Lengfeld was thus a pioneer of an ecumenical development, which was continued, among other things, in the decision to join the two large churches in the Working Group of Christian Churches in Würzburg in 2003 . With 6500 members, Lengfeld is the largest parish in Würzburg.
