Stadtallendorf is a town in the central Hessian district of Marburg-Biedenkopf, 18 kilometers east of Marburg .

geography

Geographical location

Because of its location in the Herrenwald, Stadtallendorf is nicknamed the “Young City in the Green”.

Stadtallendorf is located according to the natural spatial structure in the West Hessian depression zone , which is divided into basins and thresholds . In this regard, the city lies on the Upper Hessian Threshold , which separates the Amöneburg Basin in the west from the Schwalm Basin in the east. On this threshold is also the Neustädter Sattel , which the north-eastern outskirts of the city meets; this ridge is part of the Rhine-Weser watershed.

Around 21,600 people live in an area of ​​78.3 square kilometers. The largest north-south extension is 17.5 km, the largest east-west extension 10.38 km. The highest point is the Kohlkopf in the forest near Wolferode (371 m), the lowest point is at the Ohm near Schweinsberg with 200 m. The core city is about 250 m.

Several streams flow through Stadtallendorf and its districts, almost all of which drain via the Ohm , which itself only flows through the outskirts of the city ( Schweinsberg ). The Klein , one of the largest Ohm tributaries, runs on the edge of Niederklein . In the Stadtallendorf district there is also the source of the Wiera , which flows into the Schwalm and thus belongs to the river basin of the Weser. The Rhine-Weser watershed is close to the city limits of Neustadt .

Neighboring communities

Stadtallendorf borders in the north on the town of Rauschenberg (Marburg-Biedenkopf district) and the community Gilserberg ( Schwalm-Eder-Kreis ), in the east on the town of Neustadt , in the southeast on the town of Kirtorf , in the south on the town of Homberg (Ohm) ( both in the Vogelsberg district ), as well as in the west to the cities of Amöneburg and Kirchhain (both in the Marburg-Biedenkopf district).

history

General story

View over the city
City hall and town hall

The nucleus of today's city is the village of Allendorf, first mentioned in a document in 782 as “in villa, quae vocatur Berinscozo” (also called Allendorf in Bärenschießen ). Allendorf belonged to Kurmainz until 1802 and then fell to the Electorate of Hesse as a result of secularization . After the Prussian annexation of Kurhessen after the German War of 1866 , it belonged to the Kingdom of Prussia .

Until the end of the 1930s, Allendorf was a rural community with about 1,500 inhabitants. To distinguish it from other towns with the same name and because of the predominantly Catholic faith of its inhabitants, it was also called Catholic-Allendorf .

The beginning of the development into today's city marked the start of construction of two explosives factories in 1938. The two arms companies WASAG and DAG produced explosives here under great secrecy and filled them in bombs and grenades on site. During the Second World War, the two plants were the largest production facility for ammunition in Europe. Even today, some residential areas in Stadtallendorf are named after the armaments companies . The two explosives plants covered a total area of ​​around 1,000 hectares and were located exclusively in the forest for reasons of camouflage against aerial reconnaissance. More than 15,000 forced laborers had to work in the armaments factories. Among other things , they were housed in the Münchmühle satellite camp , which belonged to the Buchenwald concentration camp . During the Second World War, the site was largely spared from Allied air raids . After the defeat of World War II, the US armed forces set up an internment camp for captured Wehrmacht generals in the workers' barracks of the armaments companies.

The approximately 600 hectare site of the former armaments factories was considered to be one of the largest old arms contamination in Germany, partly with high chemical pollution on residential properties. From 1991 the area was completely renovated. The renovation was officially declared over in March 2006. According to the Hessian Ministry of the Environment, the renovation cost 167 million euros. 154 tons of pollutants from the ground, 697 tons from a dump and three tons of explosive TNT were disposed of.

From 1945 to 1949 the armaments factories were dismantled. The approximately 400 vacant company buildings were retained. From 1948 industrial and commercial enterprises settled here. Allendorf subsequently developed into a typical displaced community . In 1960 the community, which had meanwhile grown to around 10,000 inhabitants, received city ​​rights and the official name Stadt Allendorf . In 1977 the name was changed to Stadtallendorf .

Schweinsberg Castle from the 13th century is located in the Schweinsberg district and is now a residential complex. The remains of Waffensand Castle are located in the Niederklein district , and to the west of the city center was the Münchhausen settlement , which fell into desolation in the 15th century and which probably had a small fortified courtyard but no actual castle.

Incorporations

In the course of the regional reform in Hesse on December 31, 1971, the previously independent communities Erksdorf and Hatzbach and the city of Schweinsberg were incorporated . By state law, Niederklein and Wolferode were added on July 1, 1974.

religion

Stadtallendorf: old town center

The origin of Stadtallendorf is the Catholic village Allendorf. Until shortly before the Second World War, Allendorf was popularly called "Catholic Allendorf" to distinguish it from numerous other places of the same name and had 1500 inhabitants. After the Second World War, religious relations changed due to the influx of many workers and displaced persons. Today there is also a large evangelical community. In Stadtallendorf, the proportion of foreigners is around 21% due to migration ; people from over 70 nations live there.

Catholic Church

Stadtallendorf belongs to the diocese of Fulda . The Catholic parish in the core town of Stadtallendorf has three churches (St. Katharina, Christkönig and St. Michael), which formerly formed their own parishes. Another independent Catholic parish existed in the district of Niederklein (St. Blasius and St. Elisabeth). Since January 1, 2016, as a result of the falling number of Catholics and the shortage of priests, all four parishes mentioned have been united under the umbrella of the new parish of the Holy Spirit. With a few other Catholic parishes in the area (Emsdorf, Momberg and Neustadt), the Catholic parish of Stadtallendorf forms the pastoral association Mariabild Stadtallendorf-Neustadt. This is named after the Mariabild forest chapel located in the Herrenwald between Stadtallendorf and Neustadt.

Protestant church

The Evangelical parish of Stadtallendorf is the largest in the Kirchhain parish with around 4800 members . At the same time, it is the sponsor of the only Protestant singing and music school in Germany that belongs to the " Association of German Music Schools ". 40 employees work primarily in the day-care center, the integrative after-school care center and the singing and music school. The municipality's budget is more than one million euros a year. The Protestant parish has two churches - the Herrenwald Church and the Protestant City Church. A “Diaspora Chapel” by the architect Otto Bartning , inaugurated under the name “Notkirche” in December 1952, is now used as a parish hall. Slightly changed by additions and modifications, it is in good condition. In 2013 the Herrenwaldkirche, built in 1965, was de-dedicated. There are other Protestant churches in the districts of Erksdorf , Hatzbach ( Hatzbach church ), Schweinsberg (Stephanskirche) and Wolferode .

Islam

The Fatih Mosque

Over 5,000 Muslims live in Stadtallendorf. The vast majority of Muslims are of Turkish origin. In Wupperweg there is the Fatih Mosque (Turkish Fatih Camii ), which belongs to the DITIB association and which was arson attacked in 2009. The founding of the Fatih Mosque goes back to an initiative by Turkish guest workers from the Fritz Winter iron foundry. In 1970, with donations from guest workers and with financial support from the management, the company had a barrack built on company premises in Weichselstrasse , which was used as a mosque for years. In the 1990s, the company moved to its current location, where a building and property were acquired by the mosque association. The new construction of the mosque with dome and minaret was completed in 2004.

In addition to the Fatih mosque, there are also mosques of the VIKZ and the IGMG . There is also a community of Alevis .

Judaism

In Stadtallendorf there was still a small Jewish community up until the Nazi era, the members of which emigrated or were deported and murdered during the Nazi regime. The Jewish cemetery on “Läuser Weg”, which has been preserved, still bears witness to this community.

mayor

Acting mayor since the early 1980s was the Christian Democrat Manfred Vollmer . He was the longest-serving mayor in the Marburg-Biedenkopf district and the first mayor of the city who was not elected by the city parliament, but directly by the citizens. His last term of office ended in March 2012. He left office for reasons of age. The SPD city councilor Christian Somogyi was elected as his successor on October 2, 2011 . He prevailed in the runoff election with 52.56 percent of the vote against Pierre Brandenstein (CDU). His term as mayor began on March 15, 2012. Somogyi resigned from his position as city councilor on December 31, 2011. The Social Democrat had already stood in the 2005 election, but had lost to the incumbent Vollmer at the time. In the mayoral election on September 24, 2017, he was re-elected with 68% of the votes cast.

coat of arms

The coat of arms was approved by the Hessian Ministry of the Interior on October 18, 1955.

Stadtallendorf coat of arms
Blazon : "In blue a golden, red-armored bear and a lion, divided nine times by silver and red, holding up a silver, six-spoke wheel."
Justification of the coat of arms: Hessian lion and wheel of Mainz mark the affiliation of the community: up to the secularization of the archbishopric of Mainz , then to Hesse. The bear alludes to the name "Allendorf im Bärenschießen", which the community used to distinguish it from other places with the same name. The coat of arms was retained even after the surrounding communities were incorporated into the city as part of the Hessian regional reform.

Town twinning

Stadtallendorf has had partnerships with the English city of St Ives (Cambridgeshire) since 1989 and with the city of Coswig in Saxony-Anhalt since 1993.

Culture and sights

Parks and green spaces

"Pirate's Nest" playground

Stadtallendorf calls itself "The young city in the country". Young, because the city has only had city rights since 1960. Green, because the city is located in the Herrenwald, a large forest area and there are also many green spaces in the city. The city only has structures that have grown in the old town, the other parts of the city have been laid out over the years and are criss-crossed by forest and spacious green areas. Between the Waldstrasse and the Main-Weser-Bahn is the Heinz-Lang-Park (formerly Volkspark), the largest inner-city green space. Two special attractions in the Heinz-Lang-Park are the “Pirate's Nest” playground for children and the skate park for young people.

The so-called Rathauspark is another larger park in the city center. There is next to the town hall pond also the memorial for the victims of the world wars.

nature

The Schweinsberger Moor nature reserve is located near the Schweinsberg district . It is considered the largest contiguous reed area in Central and Northern Hesse and is a retreat for many rare bird species.

Museums and memorials

The Documentation and Information Center (DIZ) Stadtallendorf is located at the construction site. The DIZ has been available to the public and especially schools as a memorial for the victims of National Socialism since autumn 1994. The authority is the magistrate. The DIZ is located in the side wing of the restored, listed building - formerly the administrative headquarters of Dynamit-Nobel AG. In a permanent exhibition, the eventful and extraordinary history of the town of Allendorf from the Weimar Republic to the 1950s is thematized, from the small farming village to the later industrial town. The focus of the presentation is on the period between 1933 and 1945, when Allendorf became a central location for armaments production for the Second World War. The special task of the DIZ is the processing and documentation of the situation of the forced laborers in the camps and explosives plants around Allendorf during this time.

The Münchmühle Memorial is located near the Stadtallendorfer Wasserwerk. It is reminiscent of the Münchmühle camp , a satellite camp of the Buchenwald concentration camp (near Weimar ). In stock Münch mill were from August 1944 to end of March 1945 1,000 women prisoners, mainly from Hungary , housed. They had to do forced labor for the explosives plants in Allendorf and Herrenwald .

The military history collection can be visited on the grounds of the Herrenwald barracks . It has been located in Stadtallendorf since 2008. Before that she was seen in the Ernst Moritz Arndt barracks in Neustadt (Hesse) . For reasons of space, the collection has had to be greatly reduced in size in recent years. Nowadays it only shows exhibits on the history of the Bundeswehr. Exhibits from the two world wars can no longer be exhibited, as can exhibits from the times of the National People's Army of the GDR.

In Wolferode there is the Sengelaub costume museum, which not only shows traditional costumes, but also many other exhibits, such as photos and dishes, from the history of the district.

Buildings

Pilgrims at the Mariabild forest chapel
  • Core city

There are many half-timbered houses in the old village. The oldest preserved (half-timbered) building is the "Alte Mainzer Kellerei". Its restoration was awarded the Hessian Monument Protection Prize in 2013 . The baroque church of St. Katharina is of particular importance in terms of art history. The building, which is also located in the old village, is one of the most beautiful baroque churches in Upper Hesse. There is a Marian grotto in the field at Allendorfer Höhe. It was built to thank Stadtallendorf for not being destroyed in the Second World War. In the DAG and WASAG districts there are still many testimonies from the time of National Socialism that are reminiscent of the Allendorf and Herrenwald explosives factories . The Plausdorf Castle is located on the far north-east edge of the Amöneburg district and is only 600 meters from the city limits of Stadtallendorf. It cannot be viewed from the inside as it is inhabited. Between Neustadt (Hessen) and the city center lies the small, historic-style chapel “Mariabild”. It is a popular pilgrimage destination.

The church of St. Blasius and Elisabeth in Niederklein is particularly worth seeing. Its main attractions include the Pieta, the Way of the Cross and the large cross from the 15th century. In addition, the church also has several relics, including a splinter from the cross of Jesus. There is also a Marian grotto in Niederklein. It is modeled on the grotto of Lourdes. Near the hamlet there are remains of the Castle Forest and the Castle Arms sand .

The townscape of Schweinsberg is still characterized by its numerous historical buildings. There are many preserved half-timbered buildings to be seen here, especially in the “Im Tal” street. The 15th century St. Stephen's Church is also worth a visit . On its outer wall is the gravestone of the lawyer , genealogist and pioneer of modern heraldry Johann Georg Estor, who was born in Schweinsberg . The castle of the Schenken zu Schweinsberg is the landmark of the district . It is still inhabited today and can therefore not be viewed from the inside.

In the district, both the church and the copies of the 5 virtues are worth seeing. The originals of the latter are in close proximity to the Elisabeth Church in Marburg.

City Hall

The town hall is located right next to the town hall, to which it is connected by a glazed corridor. It can accommodate up to 1200 people.

Sports

Stadtallendorf has an indoor and an outdoor pool. The largest sports hall in the city is the Herrenwaldhalle, which is operated by the Marburg-Biedenkopf district and in which the National German Table Tennis Championships took place in 1986 and 2005 . The Herrenwaldhalle was the first athletics hall in Hesse - but with an unusual track length of just 190 m. The Bärenbachhalle, the multi-purpose hall and the sports hall of the south school are also suitable for sports activities. Football matches and athletics events take place in the Herrenwaldstadion . There is an exercise trail in the northwest of the city.

A nationally successful sports club is TSV Eintracht Stadtallendorf , whose football department was promoted to the Regionalliga Südwest for the first time in 2017 .

The Hessentag 2010

Stadtallendorf, Hessentag 2010

The 50th Hessentag took place in Stadtallendorf from May 28 to June 6, 2010 . With almost 1.1 million visitors, it was one of the three best-attended Hesse days. The anniversary Hessentag was actually supposed to take place in neighboring Alsfeld , but the city gave up the organization for financial reasons. The Hessentag area stretched through the city center on both sides of the train station in Stadtallendorf, on one side through Waldstrasse to the large marquee in the Herrenwaldstadion, on the other hand through the city center via the town hall and city hall to the large car park in the northeast industrial area. Open-air concerts with up to 40,000 spectators with performances by the singer Pink on June 3, 2010, the band a-ha on June 6 and other musical greats also took place in the industrial park. The extensive state exhibition was on the new fairground on Herrenwaldstrasse and in parts of the Herrenwaldstadion. The Heinz-Lang-Park housed “nature on the trail”. The Herrenwaldhalle was used as the "Hessen Palace" for large hall events, and with additional stands there was space for 3,200 spectators.

Economy and Infrastructure

traffic

Highways

The most important connection to the Autobahn is the Homberg (Ohm) junction on Autobahn 5, 20 kilometers away . The Autobahn 49 currently ends about 25 kilometers away at Neuental - Bischhausen . It is to be further built past Stadtallendorf to Gemünden (Felda) (connection to the A5). The planning approval procedure for the first section to Schwalmstadt with connection to the B 454 has been completed, the financing has been approved and construction is already underway. The time of opening to traffic has not yet been determined. For Stadtallendorf, the two junctions Stadtallendorf-Nord / B 454 and Stadtallendorf-Süd are planned for further construction.

Federal highways

The federal highways B 62 and B 454 run through the urban area . The latter has been raised or lowered in sections since 2000 in order to remove all crossings at the same height.

railway station

Bus transport

City bus, line 85

Supported by the city and the tourist office, there is a city bus service with four lines. The city of Stadtallendorf is, besides Marburg, the only city with city bus routes in the Marburg-Biedenkopf district . The hourly lines stop at the bus station and ensure the connection of the station with the more remote city districts. Lines 91 and 92 are purely inner-city bus routes. Lines 85 and 90 also run largely through the city center, but also connect the southern (line 85) and northern (line 90) districts to the city center. There are also P + R and B + R spaces to the southwest of the station, which were expanded as part of the Hessentag. Additional parking spaces and bicycle parking spaces were built near the reception building, but they were only opened after the Hessentag at the end of 2010. There is also a taxi stop in front of the reception building. The current bus station was opened in 2009 because the old one, built in the early 1980s, had to give way to a new shopping center.

Biking and hiking trails

Numerous hiking and cycling trails lead through Stadtallendorf and the surrounding area. The most important are:

  • The Elisabethpfad 2 and the Jakobsweg lead through Stadtallendorf.
  • The “Forster Weg” hiking trail was laid out as a circular route through Stadtallendorf and the Herrenwald. It leads from the church of St. Katharina to the forest chapel "Mariabild" and back again. He passes numerous historical and religious testimonies from the history of the place (wayside shrines, St. Mary's grotto, etc.); This makes it a popular destination for both pilgrims and those interested in history.
  • The 12 km long hiking trail “Rund um den Wetzstein” leads around the Wetzstein near the Hatzbach district.
  • The GEO tour "Cross and Queer" leads as a circular route from the foot of the Amöneburg via Rüdigheim to the Schweinsberger Moor and then through the Ohm valley back to the starting point.
  • The star trail from Marburg to the Hoherodskopf in Vogelsberg leads via Schweinsberg.
  • A nature and fairy tale trail leads from Stadtallendorf to Neustadt / Hessen.

Companies

The Ferrero -Werk
Large industrial companies shape the image of the city

Several large factories such as Ferrero GmbH (confectionery), Fritz Winter Eisengießerei GmbH & Co. KG and Hoppe AG (window and door handle manufacture) are located in Stadtallendorf . Kuehne + Nagel has a branch in Stadtallendorf . The nationwide family company Gies Services has its headquarters in Stadtallendorf .

The trade taxes paid by the companies make up an average of around 70 percent of the city's tax revenue.

garrison

Since 1959 there have been two Bundeswehr barracks in Stadtallendorf , the Herrenwald barracks and the Hessen barracks , which were most recently largely empty. The latter should originally have been closed until 2018 because it only served as an alternative quarters for the soldiers affected by the renovation work in the Herrenwald barracks. It is planned that the Hessen barracks will receive new buildings, and Bundeswehr units are to be relocated there. 100 million euros are to be invested in the new building measures. The headquarters and the airborne communications battalion of the Rapid Forces Division are stationed in the Herrenwald barracks . Since 1966 Stadtallendorf was also home to the observing / reconnaissance artillery . The observation battalion 23 was disbanded in 1993 with the exception of one battery and this was incorporated as an independent battery into the 70th artillery regiment in Mühlhausen . It last traded as the 7th / observation tank artillery battalion 131 and was finally dissolved at the end of 2009.

media

In Stadtallendorf, the Marburg-based daily Oberhessische Presse maintains a local editorial office. The editorial office in Stadtallendorf is on Am Hallenbad. In addition, the Mittelhessische Werbung Zeitung (MAZ) and the Sunday morning magazine are distributed free of charge. Both sheets are ad-financed free newspapers . The city publishes the bear messenger, which contains news from the clubs and notices from the administration. The bear messenger is distributed to all households in the city center and the districts on Wednesdays.

A local edition of the Marburger Neue Zeitung was published by October 1, 2010 . However, this was discontinued for economic reasons.

education
