history

Neuhermsheim

In 771 the village of Hermsheim was first mentioned in the Lorsch Codex under the name Herimundesheim when it was donated by a Radulf . Up to 952 another ten documents in the Lorsch Codex refer to the place, eight from 771 to 804 alone. It was probably southwest of today's Mannheim motorway junction in the "Kloppenheimer Feld". Winning names such as "At the (Hermsheimer) Church" still indicate this. A church is mentioned for the first time in 826. The village was abandoned before 1300 and the residents moved to Neckarau. It has not been proven that multiple floods of the Neckar - especially the great flood of around 1278 - were the cause. Before the construction of the SAP arena, a burial ground from the Merovingian period was excavated in Bösfeld ( Hochstätt district ) . Archaeological findings and field names lead to the assumption that Hermsheim was relocated twice.

In 1930 the first houses in today's Neuhermsheim were built on the former Neckarau district on the Baden Railway. In the 1990s there was a building boom after building permits had been issued along Hermsheimer Strasse in the direction of the airport. In addition, the development was also extended towards the B 38 a .

Neuostheim

The settlement of Neuostheim did not take place until the beginning of the 20th century on the Feudenheim district. In 1900, the then still independent community of Feudenheim decided to found a villa colony on the opposite side of the Neckar and to build magnificent villas. As early as 1909, the settlement was incorporated into Mannheim together with Feudenheim, and at the same time Neuostheim was connected to the tram network along Dürerstrasse. The airfield was opened in 1926 and the motorway to Heidelberg was built in 1935.

During the Second World War Neuhermsheim and Neuostheim were badly damaged but rebuilt after the war. Above all academics, aristocrats and American families moved to Neuostheim and benefited from the high quality of living and the proximity to the airport. The streets of Neuostheim were named after famous German painters.

In the 1950s, after Neuostheim's population had grown significantly, the Johann-Peter-Hebel-Schule elementary school was built. Your break hall is adorned with a mosaic wall with fairy tale motifs designed by the artist Rudi Baerwind . The Eastsite industrial and technology park in Neuostheim, which was built in the 2000s and is home to many innovative companies and contributes to Mannheim as a technology location, is characterized by contemporary architecture.
