Rohracker is a district of the Baden-Württemberg state capital Stuttgart . Together with the districts of Hafen, Hedelfingen and Lederberg, it forms the southeastern district of Hedelfingen .
The residents of the district are still called Welschkorneber , as corn, or Welschkorn, used to be planted here and Welschkorn porridge was on the menu almost every day.
history
The neighboring community of Sillenbuch belonged to Rohracker for a long time and only became independent in 1819. In the course of the administrative reform of the state of Württemberg in 1818, Rohracker was assigned to the Cannstatt Oberamt , which was part of the Neckar District until its dissolution .

In 1923, Rohracker was assigned to the Stuttgart District Office after the Cannstatt Oberamts dissolved and was incorporated into Stuttgart on April 1, 1937 and then run as a district. Rohracker has been part of the Hedelfingen district since 1956. The vernacular term Welschkornhausen comes from the temporary cultivation of corn ('Welschkorn') in the Rohrackers vineyards.
