Penzberg is a small town in the Upper Bavarian district of Weilheim-Schongau . It is located around 50 kilometers south of Munich . The former mining town is shaped today by the Roche Diagnostics company .

geography

location

Aerial view of the city center

Penzberg is located in the Bavarian Alpine foothills between Eurasburg and Kochel . In the south and in the east the place is bordered by the Loisach , a left tributary of the Isar . To the northwest are the Starnberger See and the Osterseen . The Königsbergwald rises in the southwest near Sindelsdorf .

geology

The city is located in an area that was covered by the Isarvorland glacier during the Würm glacial period . The Kochelsee basin and, as a tongue basin, the Wolfratshaus basin were excavated through the glacier . These basins are now largely covered by moors . The northern edge of the Kochelsee basin is formed by a stratified rib of subalpine molasses . This was lifted out in folds in the course of the formation of the Alps ( Alpidic orogenesis ). The pressure of the unfolding gave rise to pitch coal .

The tertiary formations were covered with sediments during the Ice Age . These moraines are mainly found in the area of ​​the Huber Lakes, also along the Loisach bank near Maxkron .

The fold molasses occurs mainly in the Sankt Johannisrain , Edenhof area , around the Berghalde, and in the districts of Wölfl and Nonnenwald. On the western outskirts, on the Loisach south of the Molasseriegel and south of Maxkron, low and high moors have formed.

The mountain dump and the industrial area "Grube" to the west of it are artificially piled up and consist of overburden from mining .

Parish parts

The municipality has 20 officially named municipality parts (the type of settlement is given in brackets ):

Neighboring communities

Starting from the north, the urban area is enclosed clockwise by the municipalities of Eurasburg , Bad Heilbrunn , Bichl (all districts of Bad Tölz-Wolfratshausen ), Sindelsdorf , Antdorf and Iffeldorf .

history

An essential collection and arrangement of the historically relevant descriptions listed below was carried out by the city archivist Karl Luberger. Unless explicitly indicated, all entries in the section refer to it. Based on this chronicle, the historian Reinhard Heydenreuter wrote a new city chronicle for the city's 100th anniversary in 2019.

Emergence

The Schwaige Poennensperch was first mentioned in a document in 1275 when Albero Freiherr von Pruckberg (or Albrecht von Bruckberg) handed it over to the Benediktbeuern monastery for two hubs in Weindorf near Murnau . On the Schlossbichl there was probably a small fortified wood-earth system ( Burgstall Schlossbichl ) before this time .

In a document dated August 29, 1291, the districts "Haselberg" and "Siegreichsberg" are named. Albrecht von Bruckberg sells the outer and inner Haselberg and the Siegreichsberg together with its own people to the monastery at St. Jakob am Anger .

In another document dated February 17, 1293, Abbot Otto von Benediktbeuern certifies that a dispute between the proprietors of the Benediktbeuern monastery in Penzberg and those of the St. Jakob am Anger monastery has been settled by the arbitrators on both sides. The various grazing rights are specified in detail, the rights to the Benediktbeuern monastery pond and the flooding caused by the same as well as the felling of necessary carpentry wood (in today's “civet wood”).

On February 2, 1295 the later “Nonnenwald” is called. Alber von Bruckberg sells the jurisdiction in the forest to the St. Jakob Monastery in Munich, which he has separated from the Antdorf court. In the same year, Alber von Bruckberg sold the “Gut auf dem Wald” to the monastery at St. Jakob am Anger.

1300 to 1803

Fish farming was practiced in the nuns' forest (on the Säubach or Salabach or Seld and the surrounding ponds) for almost 500 years . The beneficiaries were the Angerkloster in Munich, run by nuns, and the Benediktbeuern Abbey. Forest management was another economic factor . The peasants also had to perform hawking services for the owning monasteries . The simple jurisdiction for the area lay with the Benediktbeuern monastery, while the high court was initially assigned to Wessobrunn , later to Weilheim .

The first reports on mining appeared in 1557. At that time the coal seams emerged on the Schlossbichl for days. The dismantling work started from the imperial monastery Benediktbeuern, which had a mountain shelf dated before 1150 . However, this mining became more and more expensive the deeper the pitch coal had to be extracted from the earth. In 1692 mining was stopped as a result of the Thirty Years War and has been forgotten. In 1792, Mathias von Flurl , the Bavarian mining and minting councilor, mentioned the coal deposits in a travel report on the identification and discovery of mineral resources . Four years later the Penzberg mine was founded. This laid the foundations for further urban development. The coal mine determined the development of the emerging city for around 170 years.

1803 to 1900

Until the secularization in 1803, Penzberg belonged to the Benediktbeuern monastery. In 1808, with the reorganization of the national territory, the farms were assigned to the St. Johannisrain district. In 1818 the political community of St. Johannisrain was established with Penzberg as a district. In 1865 the Tutzing – Penzberg railway was put into operation, which significantly increased sales of coal to the state capital of Munich and made the mine profitable for the first time. The postal service was also started in the same year. In 1871 the first school building was built on the road to Reindl . There, however, only children were taught by miners. Two years later, today's town center emerged from the miners' settlement. An influx of workers took place mainly from the Austrian crown lands such as Bohemia, Croatia, South Tyrol and Lombardy, but also from Upper Austria. Craftsmen and tradespeople increasingly settled with the miners. In 1874 the miners' band was one of the first to be founded, and in the same year the shooting club. In 1877 the school building on Philippstrasse was built for children of non-miners. In 1884 the mining company had a kindergarten built and in the same year Penzberg also received a gendarmerie station. In 1889, planning and installation of the municipal water supply and electrical street lighting began. The Catholic Church of St. Barbara , built in the neo-Gothic style , was consecrated in 1891 . In 1897/1898 the railway line was extended to Kochel ( Kochelseebahn ). In order to avoid the complicated headache of the trains, the old Penzberg station was henceforth only used for freight traffic and the Neupenzberg station in the south of the village was built as a through station. In 1898 the first trade union movement took place , the association for the protection and promotion of mining interests in Upper Bavaria . In 1899 the Catholic parish was established in Penzberg.

1901 to 1933

The former pitch coal mine in Penzberg (1908)

In 1901 the Social Democratic Party was brought into being and the Evangelical Association Penzberg was founded. In the same year the Maffeische Gutsverwaltung had the Eichberger inn (later Staltacher Hof) built in the center. In 1904 the foundation stone for both the Protestant church and the hospital at Schloßbichl was laid. In 1911 the municipality name St. Johannisrain was officially changed to Penzberg . In the same year Franz Marc invited the painter Heinrich Campendonk to Sindelsdorf. Campendonk received essential inspiration in Penzberg. He immortalized the working-class city with pictures such as Barbara-Zeche (1919) and Penzberger Reiter .

189 Penzberg citizens fell victim to the First World War . Coal production fell from 290,000 to 208,000 t, while the workforce remained almost the same. Gaps caused by conscription were mainly filled by Russian prisoners of war .

In 1919 Penzberg received city ​​rights .

The town hall in its present form

In 1921 the town hall was expanded and got its current appearance with the typical facade and the onion dome.

The new post office was built on Philippstrasse in 1923, and the current passenger station Neupenzberg was built the following year .

In 1927/28 the town hall on today's Mayor-Rummer-Straße was built by the members of the Penzberg workers' associations with unpaid work.

1933 to 1945

After the NSDAP achieved the worst result in a Bavarian administrative district with 16.4% in the Reichstag elections on March 5, 1933, the National Socialists took power in the town hall on March 11 with cunning and violence.

From 1943 the town hall was occupied by a camp that took in bombed-out children from Munich and the surrounding area. On November 16, 1944, around 30 bombs were dropped in an Allied air raid. Eight people were killed and 20 injured. Four houses were destroyed, nine buildings were damaged. After the attack, only the choir remained of the Catholic St. Barbara's Church. The mine was not affected by the air strikes.

The Barbarakirche, which was largely destroyed in the bombing

In the course of the crimes at the end of the war , 16 citizens of the city were murdered by SS and so-called werewolf people on April 28, 1945 on the so-called Penzberg Murder Night . Previously, in a radio report from the Bavarian Freedom Campaign, the mayors, who were deposed by the National Socialists in 1933, had been asked to take up office again. Thereupon Penzberg's former mayor Hans Rummer and other citizens of the city went to the town hall and deposed the NSDAP mayor Josef Von Werden. At the main entrance to the cemetery there is now a memorial with a memorial stone for each murder victim. A memorial was erected on the Straße des 28 April 1945 / An der Freiheit . The Penzberg Museum has a permanent exhibition about the night of the murder. Every year on April 28th there is a memorial ceremony.

Honorary graves in the Penzberg cemetery

On the afternoon of April 30, 1945, the US military marched in without fighting; the Americans stayed until the autumn. 230 Penzberg soldiers fell victim to the Second World War . 1295 refugees, mainly from Silesia and the Sudetenland , arrived in Penzberg by the end of the war.

1945 to 1966

In 1949 the so-called denazification was completed. 7150 people were classified as unaffected , 15 were considered exonerated , 289 were designated as followers , 22 as less exposed and one person was classified as an activist . In that year the construction of today's Christ the King's Church began on the site of the destroyed St. Barbara's Church , in 1951 the inauguration took place. In that year, the coal-fired power station with rail siding, which was planned in the 1930s and started during the war, went into operation. The power plant generated an electrical output of 12.5 megawatts. After the mining operations were closed, it was fired with coal from Peißenberg and the Saarland . In 1956 the construction of the hospital and the Bgm.-Prandl-Volksschule began. In 1963 the first sewage treatment plant at An der Freiheit was put into operation, the following year the inauguration of the Catholic Church Our Lady of Wladimir in the Steigenberg district . On September 30, 1966, the last shift went to the Penzberg mine because the mine was no longer competitive. 1,300 miners were affected by the closure. Since it was possible to bring the MAN company to Penzberg with a complete omnibus production plant, 700 former miners found work again that same year. In the same year, classes at the secondary school began .

1967 to 1999

From 1967 to 1974, 48 buildings in the center were demolished in the course of the old town renovation and a high-rise and several slightly lower apartment blocks with a total of 182 apartments were built in their place. In 1970 Penzberg received its first connection to the A95 federal motorway. That year, the two-year construction of the special school on Südstrasse began . In 1972 the pharmaceutical company Boehringer Mannheim became the largest employer on the site of the Nonnenwaldschacht . The city council decided to expand the mountain dump into a leisure and recreation area. 1976 saw the opening of the warm water wave pool with the characteristic wave system, a diving tower, sauna, outdoor area and a restaurant. In 1977 the dismantling of the freight yard began. In its place a commercial area was created. In 1979 the city hospital was expanded and the fire station was completed a year later . With the school year 1981/82 Penzberg got its own grammar school , which was initially planned for the tenth grade; however, the 1982/83 class in Penzberg was able to take the Abitur. In 1987 a municipal kindergarten with after- school care center was established on Daserweg . In 1990 a multi-purpose hall was built on Krumbachstrasse near the town hall. There is a sports hall, a shooting range and bowling alleys, among other things. Sports operations began in the Nonnenwald Stadium on today's Karl-Wald-Straße . In 1994 the construction of a new elementary school and a kindergarten with after-school care center began on Birkenstrasse ; in addition, the city ​​museum (now the Penzberg Museum ) was opened. In 1996 the city acquired the Hub estate (total area approx. 98 hectares) with buildings, ponds, camping grounds, meadows and forest. In 1999 the new water supply from the reservoir in Oberriedern was completed. In the same year, Boehringer Mannheim was taken over by Roche Diagnostics . That year , a local locomotive company restored the so-called Bockerl , a small steam locomotive that was used to transport pit wood to Nonnenwald until the post-war period . This locomotive was erected as a memorial at the junction between Bichler Strasse and Bahnhofstrasse .

Since 2000

Penzberg city center with the central Bahnhofstrasse

In 2000, the association sewage treatment plant on the Loisach was put into operation. In the mechanical part, it has a basic capacity of 50,000 population equivalents (PE). The biological cleaning part is expanded with around 34,000 PE. The sewage treatment plant is operated in inter-municipal cooperation between the three municipalities of Penzberg, Bad Heilbrunn and Iffeldorf. In 2002, the renovation and new construction of the Steigenberger Hof senior citizens' and nursing home was completed. 2003 the association built young knight the Barbara Chapel on the mountain slope. An adventure playground on Gustavstrasse was inaugurated in 2004. In 2005 MAN stopped work in Penzberg. The plant was transformed into an independent company, Automative Components Penzberg (ACP) GmbH . The Islamic Forum opens on Bichler Strasse . In October 2006, the miners' association inaugurated a memorial on the Berghalde, reminiscent of the mine’s cable car. In 2007, as part of the "Modernization of the City Center" project, Bahnhofstrasse in the hospital - town square area was completed. Construction work on the second part (Stadtplatz to Ludwig-März-Straße) began in spring 2008 and was completed in autumn 2010. On August 19, 2009, the town hall burned out completely during plumbing work. In December 2011 it was ready for occupancy again after renovation and remodeling. In 2012 the city hospital was renamed the Penzberg Clinic and sold to the Starnberg Clinic . The Penzberg Clinic is now a municipal hospital providing basic and standard care with 100 planned beds. The medical clinic, the surgical clinic with general and trauma surgery, plastic surgery / hand surgery and anesthesia as well as the ENT and gynecology departments are managed. In 2013 the town square was inaugurated on the site of the former Stammler department store and the Staltacher Hof. A weekly market takes place here regularly. On the streets of the center and the town square there is the carnival parade and several times a year market and sales events.

etymology

The place name appeared in different forms: Poennensperch (1275), Ponnisperge (1293), Ponesberg (1332), Pönsperg (1454), Pennesberg (1492), Pennsberg (1717), Spensberg (1792), Pensberg (1818), Penzberg.

There are two interpretations of the place name:

  • One interpretation comes from Theo Vennemann , linguist at the Ludwig Maximilians University in Munich , who breaks it down into the old core name “Bon-on-ia”, which adds the younger head “-berg” (in the old spelling “-perch”) has been. He traces the old kernel of the name back to the Vasconic , which explains the place name as "DerGuteBerg-Berg" as a tautology . In fact, the place name is likely to have originated from a former field name and include the flattened rocky area in which the oldest mining activities in the city were (Eichthalstraße – Grube – Schlossbichl area) and which protrudes prominently from the swamp that used to surround it.
  • The second interpretation comes from Wolf-Armin von Reitzenstein , who in his lexicon of Bavarian place names traces the place name back to a “personal name to be developed * Bonin or * Bunni”. The problem with this explanation arises from the fact that neither a “Bonin” nor a “Bunni” can be proven for Penzberg and the surrounding area.

Religions

Most of the residents are Catholic (45%) or Protestant Christians (17%) (as of May 9, 2011) . Muslims follow in third place . The boards of the major religious communities are committed to interreligious cooperation.

Catholic Christians

Penzberg belongs to the parish Christkönig in the diocese of Augsburg . A meeting point for Catholics is the Christkönig parish center with the parish church , the Barbarahaus, consisting of a library and several conference rooms, and the Johannishaus with conference rooms in the city center. Another meeting point is the parish center To Our Lady of Wladimir in the Steigenberg district with the church of the same name , completed in 1964 . The parish hall of ULF v. Vladimir with conference rooms and the St. Raphael kindergarten .

Evangelical Christians

The Evangelical Lutheran Parish of Penzberg with its parish office and the Martin Luther Church built in 1904 in Art Nouveau style is the center of the faithful. The parish also runs the Evangelical House Kindergarten for children .

Muslims

The center of the Muslims is the Penzberg Islamic Community, founded in 1994 . The Islamisches Forum Penzberg building complex, which opened in 2005, consists of a mosque, library, conference and living rooms. The three-million-euro building was significantly supported by financial aid from Sultan bin Mohamed al-Qasimi , the Emir of Sharjah in the United Arab Emirates . Among other things, panel discussions with well-known Islamic religious leaders take place in the Islamic Forum. Because of possible connections between Imam Benjamin Idriz and Muslim extremists, the Bavarian Office for the Protection of the Constitution observed the community for several years. In the 2011 report for the protection of the constitution, the Islamic community was no longer mentioned and the non-profit status was recognized again.

Coat of arms, flag and city seal

The city of Penzberg has a coat of arms, a flag and a banner as well as a city seal.

coat of arms

Blazon : “Under the shield head nested in three rows of silver (white) and blue, covered with a crossed black hammer and black mallet, a silver (white) lamb striding in blue on a green ground, holding a silver (white) flag with a red cross golden (yellow) stick. "

The coat of arms of the city of Penzberg was approved by the Bavarian State Ministry of the Interior on December 16, 1929, after it had already been approved by the city council on November 28, 1919. The miner's tools are reminiscent of pitch coal mining . The lamb with the cross flag is the attribute of St. John the Baptist and is reminiscent of the rural community of Sankt Johannisrain, which grew considerably with the influx of miners since 1870 and from which the town of Penzberg emerged in 1919. The colors silver and blue in the main shield allude to the Bavarian national colors.

Flag and banner

Description: “The city colors are black and red. The flag or the banner of the city is black and red stripes across or lengthways with the coat of arms in the middle ”. Banners and flags are also shown without a coat of arms.

Culture and sights

Mining history

Building history and monuments

architecture

In the second half of the 19th century, miners (mostly) built small houses on their own in the Maxkron district , which were therefore very different in construction. This is due to the fact that the miners came from all over Europe and they tried to realize the architectural styles known to them. The so-called tailor's property, which was built in 1865, is, for example, built in the Franconian style with half-timbering.

The listed Penzberg Museum was built around 1873 as a workers' residence by the local mining company. This type of house shaped the appearance of Penzberg for almost a hundred years. After massive interventions and demolitions began in 1966 in the old town, which had been largely spared by the war, the city bought the house in 1984 and converted it into the city museum. It was expanded in 2015. It was also during this period that the mining company commissioned miners' houses as company apartments . These were uniform in their construction and have three floors with two rooms per floor (ground floor plus two upper floors) and a sanitary area built as a bay window (see pictures).

After the First World War, the so-called coffee mill houses were built . They have a uniform design based on an almost square floor plan. The architect J. Linden signed the construction plan dated November 5, 1920 for a house on Parkstrasse. It can therefore be assumed that he is responsible for all of Penzberg's coffee grinder houses as an architect. Also after the First World War, another workers' settlement, the Heimstättensiedlung, was built in the Heinz district . It is characterized by very small houses with a uniform appearance. Munich architect Fritz Norkauer may be responsible for this estate . The mining company last built company apartments between 1952 and 1954, of which two buildings with the same appearance still exist and are inhabited.

From the 1970s, as in many other cities, numerous older buildings were demolished and replaced by concrete structures (up to eight-story high-rise buildings). As a result, the organically grown settlement character of the inner city was largely lost.
