geomorphology

The landscape immediately around Rosenheim was shaped in its current form in the last Ice Age by the Inntal Glacier . The city is located in the Rosenheim basin on the bottom of a former glacial lake that stretched as far as the Wasserburg am Inn area around 10,000 years ago , a good 25 km north of Rosenheim; the Simssee , 7 km east of Rosenheim is a last remnant. Even today you can see in many places around the city how the former flat lake bed abruptly merges into the relatively steep embankment.

history

Already in the Middle Ages, the city was a traffic intersection and business location , received market rights early on and developed from a salt and railroad town into today's timber and technical college town. The location on the important traffic axes was decisive for the development of the place.

Pons Aeni

The Inn and the associated Inn Valley were decisive for the settlement of the area . As early as 15 BC The Romans came to this place under the leadership of Drusus and Tiberius . They founded there the right of the Inn, the province of Noricum , left the Inn Rätien . The colonizers then built a consular road from Brenner to Castra Regina (Regensburg) and a road running in an east-west direction from Iuvavum (Salzburg) to Augusta Vindelicum (Augsburg). The intersection of these two important trade routes was protected by a military station. Their name was "Pons Aeni" (dt. Inn bridge ). Seldom used names were "Ponte Aoni", "Ad Enum" or "Statio Enensis". The Roman-Celtic settlement of the Roman occupation , which lasted around 500 years, took this name. Pons Aeni was between Isinisca ( Aying ) and Bedaium (Seebruck), as the Roman street directory Itinerarium Antonini and the Roman street map Tabula Peutingeriana from the 4th century show. In the course of time, due to the language of the Bavarians , “Pons Aeni” developed into “Pfunzen”, which is still common today and which still exists in the district names “Langenpfunzen” and “Leonhardspfunzen”.

Origin of the city name

The origin of the city name is not clear. Rosenheim Castle on the eastern bank of the Inn, on today's Schlossberg, above a new bridge over the Inn, is first mentioned in 1234 . The name Rosenheim probably goes back to the rose coat of arms of the Wasserburg Hallgraves, who built the castle. Another theory says that the name was originally Rossenheim , derived from the steeds that were used in the Middle Ages to pull transport ships up the river, and for which there were large stables in Rosenheim. Street names that are still used today, such as Am Esbaum (the tree on which the horses branch) or Am Roßacker are a possible reference to this. Another clue that supports this theory is the map of the region in Palazzo Vecchio, on which the city is referred to as "Rossenheim".

Another theory says that there could also be a relationship between the words Roas , Roze or Ried , which used to refer to swamp and peat areas that can still be found around Rosenheim today - also clearly evident from the name of Rosenheim's neighboring town Kolbermoor . An example of one of the old names is the nearby town of Riedering . The name Rosenheim may also be derived from the personal name Roso / Hrodo .

Literally the most beautiful theory is that beautiful girls used to be called 'rose'. Even the Inn boaters believed that this city had a particularly large number of beauties to admire. The town, which the boatmen like to head for, was given the name “home of roses” - in other words Rosenheim.

Origin of Rosenheim

Around the time the castle was first mentioned in 1234, Rosenheim was built in the 13th century on the western bank as a settlement for shipmen. Since the area at the Inn Bridge could not be built on for a long time due to the marshy soil in the course of the Mangfall estuary, the settlement was built a few hundred meters away. The city center of Rosenheim is therefore not directly on the river bank.

Rosenheim market

Marct Rosenhaimb on engraving by Michael Wening from 1701

The place quickly gained importance as a transshipment point for all types of goods that were transported on the Inn (cattle, grain, silk, weapons, salt) and received market rights in 1328 . The Rosenheim shipmasters achieved great wealth in this epoch due to the lively transport of goods that stretched between Hall in Tirol, down the Inn and Danube to Vienna and Budapest . By around 1600 the settlement had developed into one of the largest and most important markets in Bavaria.

The economic decline came in the course of the 17th century as a result of the decline in shipping on the Inn and the consequences of the Thirty Years' War . There was also a plague epidemic (1634) and a market fire (1641).

Rosenheim in the 19th century

In the 19th century, Rosenheim was able to develop into an economic center in south-eastern Bavaria: in 1810, after Reichenhall and Traunstein , the town became the site of the third Bavarian saltworks . An early type of pipeline made of wood brought brine from the salt mines in the Reichenhall area to the Rosenheim saltworks. By boiling salt, the Innstadt became a center of Bavarian salt production until the saline was closed in 1958.

The early connection to the railroad brought a further upswing. In 1858 the Rosenheim train station was inaugurated, but it soon turned out to be too small and a hindrance to further urban development; in 1876 it moved to its present location. The old railway line became a dead straight thoroughfare (today Rathausstrasse and Prinzregentenstrasse, the most important traffic axis in Rosenheim, from the northwest to the southeast of the city), the locomotive shed at the first station is now an exhibition center, the old station directly opposite has been the city hall since 1878 - and serves as the backdrop for the police headquarters in the ZDF evening series " Die Rosenheim-Cops " .

City of Rosenheim

Rosenheim was not granted city rights until 1864 by King Ludwig II. The acquisition of city rights was announced on October 2, 1864 in the "Rosenheimer Anzeiger" (issue no. 40).

Rosenheim around 1860

The economic heyday of the late 19th and early 20th centuries made the Wilhelminian style and Art Nouveau (and its regional characteristics, the Heimatstil ) the most important architectural style that still defines the cityscape today. The evangelical Church of the Redeemer was built in the neo-Gothic clinker brick style, which is rare for Rosenheim, for the growing Evangelical Lutheran congregation in the official district around today's town hall.

At the beginning of the 20th century, Rosenheim owned nine breweries, which are preserved today in the name of a few restaurants (Duschl-, Hof-, Mail-, Pernloher-, Stern-, Weißbräu). Only Auerbräu and Flötzinger Bräu have survived to this day . a. deliver the Märzenbier for the Rosenheim autumn festival , as well as the B. Bierbichler Weißbräu.

Five therapeutic baths were built in the city, none of which are in operation today: the Old Bath (officially renamed the Kaiserbad in 1885 ), the Marienbad , the Dianabad , the Bismarckbad and the Mineralbad zur Leonhardsquelle . The first German Emperor, Wilhelm I, stayed seven times in the Alte Bad and twice in Marienbad. In 1985 the Kaiserbad was canceled.

Rosenheim during the time of National Socialism

After the First World War, Rosenheim was one of the centers of revolution and council rule in Bavaria .

Anti-Semitism from 1900 to the time of National Socialism

The number of Jews living in Rosenheim was high compared to other Bavarian cities. However, although the Jewish community at the turn of the century comprised around 50 people, the application for the establishment of a separate Israelite religious association was refused by the city council with reference to the Bavarian Jewish legislation, so that the Rosenheim Jews remained connected to the state capital and buried their dead there had to. Even the burial of the son of a Jewish merchant who lived in Rosenheim, who died in World War I, was not allowed to be buried in the town's honorary cemetery, "to the greatest disappointment and bitter pain" of the father.

At the latest with the establishment of the first local NSDAP group outside of Munich in 1920, the Rosenheim Jews were increasingly exposed to hostility. The center of the smear campaigns was the high school in Rosenheim . So there was a scandal in June 1920 after the writer of a letter to the editor accused the Rosenheim Jews in the local press of wanting to betray the Entente military exercises that were taking place against the provisions of the Versailles Treaty at the Rosenheim Gymnasium. Seven members of the grammar school and one member of the “Chiemgau” raided a villa in Herbststrasse inhabited by Jews, but were unable to storm it. The college of Rosenheim came to the decision on July 29, 1920, "... it is regrettable that the movement to fight against the exploitative Jewry [...], which in its essence is certainly justified, is discredited by such excesses." Protests of the Bavarian Israelite Central Association remained unsuccessful, only an unmistakable message from the Bavarian Ministry of the Interior in September 1920 could bring about peace again.

On April 1, 1933, shortly after the NSDAP came to power, guards were set up in front of Jewish shops with the task of warning against buying in these shops, but with the stipulation that they would refrain from attacks and damage to property. However, a large part of the population ignored these calls. The shops were therefore still frequented, much to the annoyance of the Nazi activists, who acted with the backing of the then Mayor Gmelchs. Six of the eleven Jewish business owners in the city center had given up their business by 1937. As part of the nationwide November pogroms , the SA broke into the last two Jewish shops on November 10, 1938 between 3 and 4 a.m. with 8 to 10 men and destroyed inventory and goods.

The fate of numerous Rosenheim Jews is documented. Those who could emigrated - mostly to the USA. However, many exit and entry applications failed and many were murdered in concentration camps.

Bombardment during World War II

Rosenheim was not spared from the bombing raids on German cities that began in spring 1942. For the then city population of around 22,000 people, only air raid shelters for 650 people were available in November 1943 . In February 1944, however, air raids were already available for around 6,400 people; in connection with other shelters, a total of 10,525 people could be protected.

201 people were killed and 179 injured in 14 bomb attacks. The focus of the air raids was on the train station and the tracks, as Rosenheim was an important railway junction to Munich, Salzburg and Innsbruck. The neighboring communities of Ziegelberg, Stephanskirchen, Westerndorf St. Peter and Pfaffenhofen am Inn were also hit. The first air raid took place on October 20, 1944 at noon from 12:47 p.m. to 1:17 p.m. with over a hundred aircraft dropping around 1,000 explosive bombs. 27 dead and 59 wounded were counted. The heaviest air raid took place on April 18, 1945. From 14:40 to 14:55, around 1,300 bombs from around 200 aircraft fell into the area around the station. There were 53 dead and 36 injured; in addition, this attack also left 800 people homeless. The station building was almost completely destroyed, track systems were destroyed over a length of 20 kilometers. The last air raids took place on April 19 and 21, 1945. Most of the at least 173 duds were recovered during the war. In 1964 the Upper Bavarian Volksblatt reported that the approximate location of 38 undiscovered duds was known.

Development of the population of Rosenheim from 1815 to 2018

After the end of the Second World War , Rosenheim experienced a considerable increase in population as a result of the expulsion of the Germans from the eastern regions of the German Empire . Most of the displaced persons who had to be taken in Rosenheim came from the Sudetenland and Silesia .

The residents' office of the city of Rosenheim puts the population at the end of 2015 at 62,324, of which 12,279 are foreigners. Between 1988 and 2018 the independent city grew from 54,304 to 63,324 by 9,020 inhabitants or by 16.6%.

What is remarkable is the population of around 162,000, more than two and a half times as high in the urban agglomeration whose center is Rosenheim. The three cities of Rosenheim, Kolbermoor and Bad Aibling are directly adjacent to one another in one line.

Rosenheim is the third largest city in Upper Bavaria after Munich and Ingolstadt and, in contrast to the other cities, still has a majority Catholic population.

coat of arms

Coat of arms of the independent city of Rosenheim
Blazon : "In red, a fallen, silver heraldic rose with a smaller, green-tipped, silver rose (filled rose), a golden slug and green sepals."
Justification of the coat of arms: The white rose on a red background can be traced back to the former coat of arms of Wasserburg am Inn , since Wasserburg Rosenheim ruled until 1247. The oldest known seal of the city of Rosenheim dates from 1374 and already shows the rose, which has not been changed until today. The only exception is a picture by Apian , which was created around 1568 and shows a border around the rose.

On older coats of arms the outer rose is regular, the superimposed filling rose overturned.

In addition, there has been a logo for the city of Rosenheim for some time. The rose, which is also present on the coat of arms, can be found on it.

Town twinning

Rosenheim maintains the following city ​​partnerships :

Rosenheim is friends with:

Culture and sights

Culture and congress center

theatre

The Rosenheim Culture and Congress Center (KU'KO) was built on the site on which the salt works were demolished in 1967 . The town hall, inaugurated on October 2nd, 1982, today's Rosenheim culture and congress center, has developed over the years into a national event center. Around 400 events are held annually in the multi-purpose building, which is 3,000 square meters in size. There are two private theaters with their own houses: the “Theater am Markt Ost” and the “Theaterinsel”, as well as the “Theater Rosenheim”, “INNszenierung” and other amateur theaters.

Museums

Since 1885 the Mittertor has housed the municipal museum with its extensive collection (approx. 5000 exhibits) on the cultural history of the city and the district of Rosenheim from prehistory and early history and Roman times into the 20th century. It is one of the most important collections of regional history in Southeast Upper Bavaria.

The Inn Museum in the historic River Master -Bruckbaustadel at the Inn Bridge is home to the river engineering and navigation technology collection of the Water Management Office Rosenheim. With many original objects the museum shows the Inn shipping, the source of Rosenheim's prosperity in the Middle Ages, in the past centuries.

Buildings

City center squares and buildings

Max-Josefs-Platz - formerly the Inner Market and Schranne - became a pedestrian zone in 1984. The historic market square is surrounded by town houses in the typical Inn-Salzach style (raised, horizontally closed facades; arcades; bay windows). The houses were built after the great fire of 1641. Most of them date from the 14th century. Previously narrow wooden houses have been combined to form stately patrician houses. The pub sign on the Stockhammer house shows a ship train. The Fortner "Zum Santa" wine house was redesigned in the Gothic style in 1642 and given early Rococo stucco in 1745 . There is a Gothic vault in the wine bar. House No. 22 was Rosenheim's town hall from 1641 to 1878. In front of the Bergmeister house, with a rococo entrance door that is well worth seeing, there is a fountain with the late rococo statue of St. Nepomuk, patron saint of shipmen.

Ludwigsplatz 2010

Ludwigsplatz is separated from Max-Josefs-Platz by the Mittertor. It was part of the so-called outer market, which was created as a result of the expansion of Rosenheim after 1500. The square is lined with town houses in the Inn-Salzach style. The Fischbrunnen, a work by Georg Albertshofer from 1928, is a reminder that live fish used to be sold here. At the Reindl shoe store, a ball from the Napoleonic era bears witness to a warlike event in 1810. The green market with a wide range of fresh fruit, vegetables and flowers takes place regularly on part of the square. Ludwigsplatz was renewed in the course of the State Garden Show 2010.

The Mittertor is the only one of what used to be five market gates and was the east gate of the market before 1350, which was then protected by a double moat. Since the 15th century it separated the Inner Market from the Outer Market and served as a customs post. It also contained several municipal facilities such as the town clerk's room until the 19th century . After the great fire in Rosenheim in 1641, the onion dome was added and the long building was later extended. At its core, the Mittertor is the oldest building in the city. On the facade on the Ludwigsplatz side is the coat of arms of Rosenheim, the white rose on a red background. The Bavarian coat of arms can also be seen.

On the Salzstadel north of the Ludwig place since 1559, the Salt House, the storage of the of were hemmers served zoom transported salt. They were destroyed by fire in 1889. The Ballhaus Rosenheim further east was built in the former building complex of the Hofbräus Rosenheim. The hall building with ballroom and vaulted cellar was built in 1878. It was renovated from 1994 and has been available again as an event space since 2001 and, with its diverse uses, forms a center of the eastern old town of Rosenheim.

To the south of Ludwigsplatz is Königstrasse. When the old train station was relocated in 1878, its reception building became the new town hall; the locomotive shed opposite today serves as an exhibition center . The three-storey middle pavilion of the town hall with a tent roof and the two-storey side wings still indicate the old function of the building. In 1858 the building was completed after three years of construction. The Königschule is also located on Königstraße and was built in 1866 as a boys school in Maximilian style according to plans by Ludwig Foltz and Rudolf Gottgetreu .

To the south of Max-Josefs-Platz, along the Gillitzerblock, Münchener Straße, also known as the “small pedestrian zone”, leads towards the train station and Salinplatz. The magnificently restored Wilhelminian style facades are immediately visible . The ensemble owes the name Gillitzerblock to its builder Thomas Gillitzer. At the end of the 19th century he had 15 houses built on what was then a huge area, including the Hotel Deutscher Kaiser . From the 1960s, the once self-contained Gründerzeit ensemble was changed through new buildings and renovations. Only the facades in Münchener Strasse have been preserved and have been faithfully restored in recent years.

More recently, the Salinplatz is nearby. After the demolition of the salt works in the 1960s, a completely new residential and business district was created with apartment blocks and high-rise buildings not far from the new train station. In the 1980s, u. a. Today's town hall (KUKO) was also built. With a planning period of eight years between 1985 and 1987, the Salinplatz was built in just 18 months on an area of ​​12,000 m² with its residential and commercial buildings and a large underground car park (P6). Salinplatz is a pedestrian zone.

The art mill south of the station was built from 1855 to 1916 in several construction phases as an industrial complex. It was renovated in the 1990s and is now used as a restaurant or office. The power station for the art mill is located on the Mangfall Canal. The art mill houses the exhibition rooms of the Rosenheim art association. On the upper floor of the former art mill, changing exhibitions by contemporary artists, exchange exhibitions with other art associations and activities accompanying the exhibition take place on around 200 m² of exhibition space.

The Loreto Meadow in the north of the old town serves as a free large car park near the city center (P5) for most of the year. The so-called "fifth season", the Rosenheim Autumn Festival , begins on the last Saturday in August on the Loreto meadow .

Churches

The parish church of St. Nikolaus on Ludwigsplatz was built in 1450 as a late Gothic building with a pointed helmet tower. After the town fire of 1641, the new building with an onion dome (65 m) took place - today's landmark of Rosenheim. The interior was changed several times in line with contemporary tastes.

Inside the Wolfgang Chapel is the Lucca picture, a Secco painting from the 15th century.

The St. Joseph Hospital Church in Innstrasse east of Ludwigsplatz was built in 1618/19. It has a rococo pulpit with richly carved decoration. The altarpiece, as well as the other paintings depicting the life of St. Joseph, were made by the Rosenheim painter Joseph Anton Höttinger. The large votive painting, which shows the Pandur invasion and the bombardment of Rosenheim in October 1744, is worth seeing .

The Loreto Chapel on the Loreto Meadow has the Casa Santa in Loreto in Italy as an architectural and name model. It was inaugurated in 1636. Loreto chapels were built in the German-speaking area from the 16th century - often as donations for noble pilgrims after their return from a Loreto pilgrimage.

The parish and pilgrimage church of the Holy Blood , which is located on the southern outskirts of the city, was built in its current form towards the end of the 17th century, the late Gothic choir around 1508. In 1686/1687 the church was rebuilt in baroque style by Hanns Mayr from Hausstatt. In the choir there is lavish high baroque stucco, the stucco in the nave is much more economical. The centerpiece of the church is the late Gothic carving of the heavenly mercy seat, a major work by the master von Rabenden from around 1510. Next to the church is the well chapel, which was built by Hanns Mayr in place of the older one at the end of the 17th century.

The chapel at Roßacker had the Rosenheim brewer Martin Butterer built in 1737 under the name To the seven refuge on the basis of a vow right next to his beer cellar.

The parish church of Christ the King was approved by the Archbishop's Ordinariate on June 12, 1928 because of the poor pastoral situation at the time, and the first groundbreaking took place five days later. The solemn church consecration took place on October 27, 1929. Due to the destruction of large parts of the church during the Second World War , it received a new glass window by Roland Peter Litzenburger in 1962 , and in 1984 the chancel was redesigned with works by the Rosenheim artist Ludwig Hamberger.

The Capuchin Monastery of Rosenheim , founded in 1606 and repopulated in 1856, is next to the Sebastianikapelle .
