The district is located in the north-western part of the city and borders the Damm district along the Aschaff , Habichtstraße, Steinbacher Straße and Grundweg . In the west and north it is bounded by the communities of Mainaschaff , Kleinostheim , Johannesberg and Glattbach in the district of Aschaffenburg . North of the housing estate the highway cuts through A 3 the district, separating it from the eponymous forest Strietwald . In earlier centuries, the forest areas of the Strietwald district largely belonged to a forest marrow that was only divided up in the 18th century. Today the Strietwald consists of the district areas of the formerly independent rural community of Damm (forest departments Falkentanne, Batzenloos, Unterbach, Schüsterberg and the winery of the urban forest district XIV - Strietwald and the urban forest district XV - Wolfskaute), the areas of the urban Strütt with the Molkenbrunnen and the Striethäuschen Forest departments Pickenacker, Grabenschlag, Teschenhöhle, Pfaffengrund, Birkenschlag, Molkenbrunn and Jägerhäuschen of the urban forest district XIV - Strietwald) as well as from the state foundation forest with the Jahnfelsen lying completely north of the Steinbach.

history

The Aschaffenburg pharmacist (Strauss pharmacy) and amateur archaeologist as well as the member of the city magistrate Johann Baptist Broili succeeded in discovering several finds from Schnurkeramischer and Hallstatt periods during excavations at two barrows in Aschaffenburg Strietwald in the Molkenborn forest department in 1881 and 1885 . The finds, including a faceted, polished battle ax, a hatchet and a small herringbone cup, suggest burials dating back to the La Tène period and the earliest settlement.

After the building permit from March 29, 1933, construction of the Strietwaldsiedlung began in the Damm district. Part of the financing, the sponsorship, planning and construction management as well as the granting of heritable building rights was carried out by the city of Aschaffenburg. The construction of the “suburban small settlement” was co-financed by the German Reich through the Deutsche Bau- und Bodenkreditbank AG Berlin. The employment office supported the settlement construction with the compulsory work of the unemployed in the sand and gravel extraction. The voluntary labor service department 285 / I helped with the laying of the water pipe. The apartments were initially built in two-storey terraced houses and in single-storey, pointed-gable semi-detached houses with long kitchen gardens and the option of keeping small animals. This first section of the settlement was a typical self-sufficiency settlement, as it was built almost entirely in-house and with mutual help from the neighbors during the fascist era. Before that, the first 40 selected people willing to settle in the Leohaus in the Damm district were informed about the financing, organization, planning and construction process. The Strietwaldsiedlung was named after the Gauleiter of the Gau Mainfranken formed at that time, Dr. Otto Hellmuth settlement . The NSV was responsible for the kindergarten. The area of ​​the Strietwald district has been changed several times on the border with the municipality of Mainaschaff. On January 1, 1962, the industrial area between the Hasenhägweg and the Aschaff became part of the city area and thus to the Strietwald district; on January 1, 2002 the area around the Aschaffenburg correctional facility. In return, predominantly forest areas were re-marked in the area of ​​the municipality of Mainaschaff.

Buildings and facilities

Konradkirche

The concerns of the population that arose with the establishment of the correctional facility between 1968 and 1970 on the north-western edge of the district have now been dispelled. An outdoor section for young people has been affiliated since 1991, with a total capacity of 145 places for men and twelve places for women.

A primary school and a kindergarten exist in the Strietwaldsiedlung . The pastor of Damm Anton Heckelmann and later pastor Eduard Keller negotiated with the city of Aschaffenburg in 1933 about the reservation of a building site for a church. However, the application for the designation of a church building site was always rejected by the city administration under the National Socialist Lord Mayor Wilhelm Wohlgemuth . In 1937/38 the city of Aschaffenburg built an NSV nurses' station and a kindergarten on the Gänsruh, which was provisionally used as a church after the American invasion. 18 years after Elise Maier donated her field to the Church Foundation St. Michael on December 20, 1935, the construction of the St. Konrad Church , which was completed in 1953, began.
