Aubing-Lochhausen-Langwied

Geschichte

Aubing-Lochhausen-Langwied is the 22nd borough of the German city of Munich. The districts Aubing, Lochhausen and Langwied were incorporated together in 1942, thus forming the largest borough of the city at 3,400 hectares, yet having the lowest density of population with 37,352 residents as of 2002. This large borough still accommodates many vast agricultural and forest areas that together with the Aubinger Lohe and the Langwieder lake district, fulfill the balance of nature in the area and offer recreational facilities to all of western Munich.A large area between Aubing/Neuaubing and Germering on Munich ground of the Freiham district, east of Gut Freiham is currently under development.History and DescriptionAubingAubing was first documented in 1010 AD as Ubingen. This name was most likely derived from the name Ubo of the Bavarii, however no such person with that name is actually known of. The longer story which most school children are told, is of "Founder Ubo, who settled here with his cart" is just as well established as the neighbouring borough of Pasing's founding story, in that its name stemmed from "Paoso". Neither are accurate.In 1818 the municipality of Aubing was established, with the districts Aubing, Freiham and Moosschwaige. On 1 April 1942 the Aubing municipality was connected to Munich, but without a treaty of incorporation.Aubing is divided by the Munich-Buchloe railway line in Alt-Aubing and Neu-Aubing.
