Geographical location

The Münchnerau district has an area of 13.8 km². The Münchnerau district with the same name and largely congruent measures 15.51 km². At the time of the 1961 census, the community of Münchnerau had an area of 12.92 km². Geographically, the area is separated from the municipality of Eching in the south by the Isar , and in the north it borders on the municipalities of Bruckberg and Altdorf . Some areas of the district are - as the only larger area in the urban area - at risk of flooding because the city's flood protection system (especially the Landshut flood basin ) only branches off the Isar at the eastern end of the district. The main settlement area, bounded by the A 92 in the west and the flood basin in the east, is crossed by the Klötzlmühlbach .

In addition to the village of the same name, the Münchnerau community also comprised ten other districts, namely the villages of Siebensee , Gündlkoferau and Buchenthal , the hamlets of Ellermühle , Peterreuth , Wampelmühle , Feichtmaier and Neubau, as well as the desert areas Echingerhof and Waas.

Münchnerau belonged to the estates of the Hochstift Regensburg and its Hofmark Eugenbach at least since the 13th century . In the course of the administrative reforms in Bavaria, the municipality of Münchnerau was created with the municipal edict of 1818. On January 1, 1972, the community was incorporated into the independent city of Landshut.
