Historical Description | The municipality of Obermenzing was settled by hunters, farmers and fishermen in prehistoric times. In 1403 Obermenzing experienced two important events. During the so-called "Munich Civil War", the two mills were burned down by rebellious Munich farmers in order to cut off the water supply to the city of Munich, and the consecration of the church of St. George, now described as a "church", was moved from the Sunday after the feast of St. Lawrence to the Sunday after the feast of the apostles Philip and James. In 1441, Duke Albrecht III acquired Obermenzing and the wood "genant der Laym" from the monastery of Wessobrunn and established the "Hofmark Obermenzing", having already expanded Obermenzing with Blutenburg Castle from 1431 to 1440. In 1676, the Electoral Privy Councillor Anton Freiherr von Berchem took over the Hofmark Obermenzing. In 1818, Obermenzing became an independent municipality with the districts of Blutenburg and Pipping. The municipality of Obermenzing remained rural. In addition to the founding of the volunteer fire department in 1873, the construction of schools and the fire station are particularly noteworthy, some of which still exist as buildings today. In 1866, the English Misses established their own institute in Blutenburg Castle, which they leased and which existed until 1957. At the same time, Obermenzing became a branch of the parish of Pasing, which was newly established in 1881. Both of these developments led to an ever closer connection between Obermenzing and Pasing, so that August Exter built his villa colonies Neupasing I and II on the municipal boundary between Pasing and Obermenzing and soon extended them to Pippinger and Obermenzinger Flur. The associated increase in population resulted in the construction of a schoolhouse in 1902 and the establishment of a railroad stop Obermenzing on Nymphenburger Straße, today's Verdistraße, in 1907. Obermenzing became a prestigious community for members of Munich's educated middle class, civil servants and executives. |
