Location of Sankt Mang in Kempten (Allgäu) |
Sankt Mang is a district of the independent city of Kempten (Allgäu) . Before the incorporation on July 1, 1972, Sankt Mang was a rural community in what was then the Kempten district , which, in addition to the town of the same name, comprised many more places and today forms the entire eastern part of the urban area of Kempten. The counterpart to Sankt Mang was the municipality of Sankt Lorenz . The names of these two communities, each comprising several districts, were not their largest localities, but the two Kempten parishes of St. Lorenz (Roman Catholic) and St. Mang (Evangelical Lutheran).
geography
Geographical location
The municipality of Sankt Mang on the right of the Iller had an area of eight kilometers from the Weidachsmühle in the north to the border at Durach in the south. The east-west extension varied between one and a half and six kilometers. The total area was 21.7 km². In the north and east the Leubas and their left tributary Betzigauer Bach formed the border. Even today's border only deviates slightly and in places from these rivers. In addition to the historic Lenzfried community center, more densely populated areas were the coalesced settlement area of Schelldorf , Neudorf , Kottern and Drahtzug, which were combined in 1962 in the new district and last community capital of Sankt Mang.
Community structure
The community names Schelldorf, Neudorf, Kottern and Drahtzug were abolished by the government of Swabia with a resolution of September 29, 1962. The unification of the four settlement components of the new Sankt Mang, which could no longer be abbreviated as St. Mang, followed with the same resolution.
Today Sankt Mang is one of the three districts of the city of Kempten and largely corresponds to the statistical district 7 (St. Mang, Ludwigshöhe), which had a population of 14,434 as of December 31, 2012. For statistical purposes, the district is further subdivided into four districts, from north to south:
District number |
Statistical district | Population Dec. 31, 2012 |
---|---|---|
70 | Leubas / Ursulasried | 1362 |
71 | Lenzfried / Leupolz | 2724 |
72 | Ludwigshöhe / Schelldorf / Bachtelweiher | 6112 |
73 | Kottern / Neudorf | 4236 |
7th | St. Mang district, Ludwigshöhe | 14434 |
The districts are further subdivided into blocks.

Of these, Neuschelldorf, Oberwies, Grünschlößle , Höhle, Ziegelstadel and Falchen were absorbed in the former village of Schelldorf until 1911 .
history
The municipality was created on the basis of the Bavarian municipal edict in 1818 by separating the rural settlements east of the Iller , which had only been added to the city of Kempten in 1811. These were in the area of the main teams Lenzfried and Leubas, which belonged to the prince monastery of Kempten until 1803 (and then dissolved) .
In 1909 the Sankt Mang station was built on the Ausserfernbahn and was renamed “Kottern-Neudorf” by the railway administration. Today he is called St Mang . In 1912 the seat of the municipal council was moved from Lenzfried to Neudorf on Ludwigstraße and in 1920 to Schelldorf on Duracher Straße. The house there was already on Kempten soil and could not be incorporated into Sankt Mang until 1921 through an area swap.
In 1919 the community issued a ban on moving due to a lack of housing. As a result, the rural community joined the construction and savings association Kempten and the surrounding area (today's Allgäu construction and settlement cooperative, or BSG for short ) in order to build 46 houses with 87 apartments in Kottern by 1927. The Catholic Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary was built in 1922, followed five years later by the much smaller Protestant Christ Church, designed by the architects Heydecker . In 1930 the Kottern school building opened its doors, financially supported by the Kottern spinning and weaving mill. This operation helped the community to become efficient.
In 1955 the community comprised a total of 52 localities, most recently 48 districts, mostly hamlets and wastelands .
Even before the incorporation of Sankt Mang to Kempten in 1972, 92.5 percent of the population of the Sankt Mang community was in favor of self-employment in December 1971. A connection to the neighboring Wiggensbach was favored . When it joined Kempten, the internationally known logistics company Dachser was now more of a Kempten company. Before that, Dachser was the main source of income for the Sankt Mang community for decades.
Population development
In 1819 there were 956 inhabitants in Sankt Mang; around 1860 there were 2107. In 1875 the value was 2596. In 1900, 3948 inhabitants lived in the community, a large part (2715 inhabitants, 69%) of them in Kottern, Neudorf and Schelldorf. Lenzfried had 300 inhabitants. In 1925 there were 5,412 people in Sankt Mang, in 1939 there were 6,351 people and in 1954 a total of 8,176 inhabitants. In 1987, after the incorporation and structural changes of the dissolved municipality, 11,170 inhabitants lived in the districts of the former municipality, 7838 of them in the largest district of the same name.

coat of arms
The municipality of Sankt Mang received its coat of arms in 1947 from the Bavarian Prime Minister .
In the heraldic shield, which is divided into blue and gold, stands the gold nimbled Magnus von Füssen in a black monk's habit; in his right hand he holds the golden abbot's staff, the left is raised in blessing. In front of him is a left-turning green dragon .
The coat of arms embodies the place name and the legend of Magnus, according to which Magnus not only destroyed vermin in the Allgäu, but also defeated a dragon and thus freed the population. The abbot identifies him as the founder of the Sankt Mang monastery in Füssen .
The colors in the coat of arms also go back to Magnus. These have been traceable in this context since the 16th century and are reminiscent of Pippin I and the coat of arms of Old Burgundy .
Honorary citizen
The community honored citizens who have made services to the community and the common good. After the incorporation, these were taken over by the city of Kempten.
