Pflugfelden is a southern district of the district town of Ludwigsburg , which was incorporated in 1903.

Geographical location

Pflugfelden is located southwest of the city ​​center on the so-called Long Field . It borders on Kornwestheim to the east and south and Möglingen to the west . In the north it borders on Ludwigsburg-West. Pflugfelden is about twelve kilometers away from downtown Stuttgart .

history

Pflugfelden was first mentioned in the early 12th century when several goods fell to the Hirsau Monastery. Schenker was an Adalbero von Pflugfelden. In 1308 the place came from the County of Asperg and the Palatinate County of Tübingen to the County of Württemberg. From now on, Pflugfelden was under the authority of Gröningen. But the Bebenhausen Monastery, the Denkendorf Monastery and the Stuttgart Monastery still had property. During the Thirty Years' War , the village was largely destroyed during the siege of Hohenasperg in 1635 . Reconstruction began in 1650.

Today's town hall was built in 1851, the school on Stammheimer Strasse in 1872, the toddler school followed in 1894 and the church was consecrated in 1903 in the presence of the king. In 1903 Pflugfelden was incorporated into Ludwigsburg. This improved the water supply and the place got electricity and gas connections. Just ten years later, the first commercial operations appeared along Schwieberdinger Strasse. In the 20th century, Pflugfelden developed from a small farming village into a strong industrial location for Ludwigsburg.

coat of arms

Pflugfelder's coat of arms shows a fallen silver ploughshare in red under a black stag stick , above it is accompanied by two silver capital letters, P on the left, F. on the right. The colors black and red have been the flag colors of Württemberg since the 19th century .

Attractions

The Protestant parish church of St. Ulrich from 1903 was built according to the plans of the Stuttgart architects Richard Böklen and Carl Feil. The modern building was built on the site of the old medieval church. Stones from the old church have been incorporated into the defensive wall that was still in place, which originally delimited the cemetery. There is an old sundial on the south side and a stone with the year 1391 on the west side.

The mighty rectory in Dorfstraße from 1732 is right next to the church. It was built on the site of the old rectory after it went up completely in flames and all the old church records were destroyed.

In Pflugfelden, only a few parts of the old courtyards in the village center have been preserved: Stockheimer Hof, Asperger Kellereihof, thirdelshof, Schorndorfer Hof, administrative courtyard, Heiligenhof.

The village fountain originally stood in the Stockheimer Hof, today it has been set up again near the bus stop and is surrounded by a maypole or a Christmas tree in May and December (Dorfstrasse).

At the sports hall you will find the old waterworks from 1866, from where (Riedbrunnenquelle) originally the Ludwigsburg water tower on the so-called Roman hill was supplied. In the vicinity of the sports hall, the remains of a Roman manor were excavated before it was built.
