Taufkirchen. morning Mood

Taufkirchen is a municipality in the Upper Bavarian district of Munich . It is located eight kilometers south of the outskirts of Munich between Unterhaching and Oberhaching . Due to its proximity to Munich, the former farming village has become a suburb with numerous industrial areas and an urban structure. Taufkirchen is a well-known example of a rural community, the overall appearance of which was radically changed in the 1970s by large apartment blocks and high-rise apartment buildings.

geography

Taufkirchen is located in the Hachinger Valley and is traversed by the Hachinger Bach , the only flowing water that seeps into the Munich gravel plain and continues underground.

The municipality has five officially named municipal parts (the type of settlement is given in brackets ):

• At the forest (settlement)
• Pötting ( hamlet )
• Potzham ( village )
• Taufkirchen ( parish village )
• Winning (village)

Bergham and Westerham were up in the local directory listed as places of community of the 1950s. The settlement "Am Wald" was first mentioned in the 1991 index. In the course of the regional reform from 1972 to 1978 there were no changes in the structure of the municipality.

history

Prehistory to Roman times

Already around 4,500 years ago people lived in what is now the area of ​​the municipality of Taufkirchen. In and around Taufkirchen, especially south of the sports and leisure park, excavations were carried out in 1994 from the Neolithic Age (around 4500–1800 BC), the Bronze and Urnfield Age (around 1800–750 BC), the Hallstatt Period ( around 800–450 BC) and La Tène period (around 750–15 BC), the Roman period (15 BC – 5th century AD), Germanic finds and finds the early Middle Ages (5th - 8th centuries AD) - on the cone fields, among other things, a burial ground of the bell-cup culture (around 2000 BC), the earliest evidence of settlement in the Hachinger Valley so far. A Celtic settlement from 600 BC. Until about the middle of the 3rd century BC. BC with numerous residential and storage buildings, rows of fences, storage and waste pits as well as fireplaces could be reconstructed. In addition, the remains of a Roman villa rustica , a manor based on the Roman model, were exposed. The finds in Taufkirchen are among the oldest in southern Bavaria.

Middle Ages to the beginning of the modern age - The Taufkirch family

For Taufkirchen near Munich, the earliest evidence of "Tovkirchen" is dated between 1148 and 1156. A Juditha gave her daughter to the Tegernsee Monastery , so the name Taufkirchen appears for the first time. The parish church of St. John the Baptist in Taufkirchen was named as a branch church of Oberhaching in 1315. The Taufkirch family determined what was going on in the place for several centuries. It may be that Juditha de Tovkirchen in the mid-12th century, the first representative of the noble family. The line from the knight Hilprant , after whom a street and a building in Taufkirchen are named, is clearly proven . He was born around 1310, married in 1330, and died in 1381. There is no documentary evidence that Hilprant or his successors were knighted. But the tombstone in the village church shows him in knight armor. Hilprant's bride was Mechthild von und zu Weichs from an old noble family from Weichs in the Dachau region . The Taufkirchen family succeeded in gaining a high reputation in the Munich area. Around the time of the first Taufkirchers, the place consisted mainly of a single farm, the Sedelhof, which served to supply the Taufkirch family.

Grave slab of Hilprant in knight armor in the Church of St. John

In the time of Hilprant there was a Schranne in Taufkirchen , a village court without its own jurisdiction. There a judge from Wolfratshausen ruled. Hilprant's son Gebhard was abbot of the Tegernsee monastery. The Ebersberg monastery is also said to have been run by a Taufkircher around 1343. Hilprant's second son, Conrad, was a judge in Munich . It was he who had the elaborate tombstone erected for his father in knight armor. A later descendant of Hilprant, Georg Taufkircher (1509–1580), was brought up as a noble boy at the Munich court and became an outstanding personality. As court squire, the ducal horses were later subordinate to him. He went to war as an officer for Emperor Charles V and is mentioned during the siege of Vienna by the Turks in 1528 and during the campaign near Nice in France in 1530 . He became Hofrat (member of the supreme judiciary), Hofkammerrat (financial authority) and finally a clergyman . As such, he worked with the duke in all counter-Reformation measures. Georg handed over his property in Taufkirchen to Duke Wilhelm IV in 1544 . The Duke upgraded the judicial district to Hofmark and gave Georg the much larger Hofmark Höhenrain . The people of Taufkirchen lived in Taufkirchen in a mansion with a castle orchard (orchard) immediately northeast of the church. The seat is referred to by Philipp Apian in 1585 as "arx" (castle or palace). In Taufkirchen the rule of the Taufkircher came to an end in 1544.

1544 to 1808 From the Hofmark to the community

The place had been a Hofmark since 1544, which was under the ducal administration of Albrecht V until 1560 and was handed over to the Jesuit College in Munich by his successor in 1592 . At the same time, the district is being expanded to include all the districts that are part of Taufkirchen today: Winning, Bergham, Potzham, Pötting and Westerham. The number of courtyards rose from 17 to 71. Jesuits baroque the church of St. Johann. After the Jesuit order was dissolved in 1773, the Hofmark fell to the sovereign. Elector Karl Theodor gave the area as "Commandery" in 1783 when he founded the order, the Bavarian-English branch of the Order of Malta or St. John. Commander was (excellently and wittily selected) Count Joseph von Tauffkirchen. The branch of the order only flourished until 1808.

Taufkirchen became an independent political rural community in the course of the administrative reforms in Bavaria in 1818 .

19th century from the foundation of the church

On Thomasnacht 1824, a fire broke out at the Festlbauer in Bergham. The spreading fire destroyed nine properties. The cholera epidemic in Munich in 1854 claimed six victims in Taufkirchen. In the Franco-Prussian War of 1870/71, two men from Taufkirchen died. In the 1880s and 90s the fire brigade, rifle club and boys' association were founded. A cooperative distillery was founded in 1880. In 1898 it was connected to the Munich East – Deisenhofen railway line . In 1900 Taufkirchen had 623 inhabitants.

1900 to 1945

Johann Schmelz and ten other people founded a gymnastics club in Taufkirchen in 1910 , which was committed to the ideals of Friedrich Jahn . The gymnastics club was named "Turnverein Hachinger Tal". The members of the association came from Taufkirchen, Unterhaching and other places in the Hachinger Valley. The war memorial was inaugurated in 1910. In the First World War , 18 men were killed in the community. In the post-war period there was unemployment, hardship and political confusion. In June 1935, Adolf Hitler opened the Munich-Holzkirchen section of the motorway in the east of the community during Johann Bücherl's tenure as mayor . In the Second World War , 89 citizens of Taufkirchen died or were declared missing. Taufkirchen was briefly occupied by US soldiers on May 1, 1945.

post war period

In 1946, before the flow of refugees began, two makeshift homes built during the war were occupied by 35 parties from Munich bombed out. The total number of inhabitants had grown from 800 (1943) to 1300. The first refugees from the eastern regions of the German Reich reached Taufkirchen at Easter 1946. Schools were run in two classrooms until 1960, for the first four classes on the first floor of the former municipal office and for classes five to eight on the first floor of the old school building next door the cemetery at the Hachinger Bach. In 1946, 21 pupils, 6 local and 15 refugee children came to the first class. The refugees were divided into families, often on farms. Several families lived in one room with a farmer in Winning. Your personal area was delimited by chalk lines on the floor. By the end of 1946 Taufkirchen had taken in 245 bombed-out Munich residents and 415 refugees, the majority from the Sudetenland, Silesia and Egerland, and now had 1,460 inhabitants. The integration of the displaced was not without complications.

In 1947 a local SPD group was formed. In the state elections in 1950 this received almost 40%, the Bavarian party 16% and the CSU 14% of the votes. A CSU local association was not established until 1965. In 1962 the sports club Taufkirchen (SV) was founded and in 1971 the club DJK (German youth force) was founded in the district “Am Wald”. In 1962, the Bachmühle ceased operations as the last mill in Taufkirchen. In 1961 the community only had 1601 inhabitants, of which 1172 in the main town, 214 in Potzham, 208 in Winning and 7 in Pötting. As a reaction to the great housing shortage, considerations began in the 1960s for the construction of a large housing estate west of the railway line, which resulted in an architectural competition and development plan for the 100-hectare new district "Am Wald". Construction began in 1968. In the years that followed, opportunities for 12,000 new residents to move into the “Am Wald” and “Heimgarten” districts were created. In 1971 the Protestant Christians received a kindergarten with worship rooms and later their own parish center and church. The new town hall was inaugurated in 1974, the secondary school was added in 1978, the Wolfschneiderhof Museum in 1986 and the Ritter-Hilprand-Hof in 1988. In 1983 the Greens also founded their own local association. In the 1990s, 180 asylum seekers from the Balkan Wars were housed in the vacant Jagdhof in the forest near the motorway junction. A district heating power plant, a new fire station on the Hachinger Bach and the sports park were built.

21st century

The “Livable Taufkirchen” (ILT) initiative, part of the municipal council since 1996, successfully advocated a referendum against further development. In particular, the construction of the cone fields was prevented. In 2008, the ILT appointed the mayor, who was removed from office in 2012. After decades of efforts, the wet meadows on the Hachinger Bach were placed under nature protection in 2015 . In 2012 a Turkish-Islamic mosque was opened near the train station. Under the current mayor Ullrich Sander, the cultural events in the culture and congress center of the Ritter-Hilprand-Hof experienced fruitful expansions. The state secondary school Walter-Klingenbeck-Schule was rebuilt and opened in 2016. Two children's houses were also added. The Am Lindenring shopping center will be renewed with larger shops and new apartments from 2017 by resolution of the municipal council.

2015 was marked by the influx of refugees. Several hundred found accommodation , first in the gym, then in a specially built air dome. A group of helpers was founded. In 2016, 7 new houses for 32 asylum seekers each were built at the Realschule.

When at the beginning of the 1970s - due to the construction of large residential complexes in the district of Am Wald - the number of inhabitants rose by leaps and bounds, a second Catholic parish, St. Georg , was established in Taufkirchen in addition to the previous parish of St. John the Baptist .

Coat of arms and communication logo

The community bears the coat of arms of the Taufkircher family . This coat of arms is already depicted on the grave slab of the knight Hilprand, who died on September 18, 1381 . Since 1957, the mandatory official blazon has described the motif of the coat of arms as a lion pushing a silver sword through its mouth. In the municipality of Taufkirchen the coat of arms is interpreted in such a way that the lion roars with the sword over the right shoulder to strike. There is no evidence in the documents for this interpretation.

The commune's communication logo, newly introduced in 2015, symbolizes the Hachinger Bach as a source of life with reference to the history of the congregation, St. Johannes as the eponym, architectural monument and distinctive landmark of the townscape, urban residential buildings and office buildings representative of the attractive location for companies. The elements are framed by trees as a commitment to nature, the inclusion of the name of the settlement “Am Wald” and as a symbol for sustainable, cross-generational thinking and acting.
