Neuried is a Municipality in the district of Ortenau in Baden-Württemberg in Germany.
Geography
[edit]Geographical Location
[edit]Neuried is located in the Upper Rhine Plain right next to the Rhine and thus on the German-French border, exactly in the middle between Kehl and Lahr, only a few kilometers south of Strasbourg, and a few kilometers from Offenburg.
Neighbouring Municipalities
[edit]The municipality borders the town of Kehl to the north, Schutterwald and Hohberg to the east, Friesenheim and Meißenheim to the south, and the Alsatian municipalities of Plobsheim and Eschau to the west.
Municipal structure
[edit]The municipality of Neuried consists of the formerly independent municipalities of Altenheim, Dundenheim, Ichenheim, Müllen and Schutterzell. Today, these form the districts of the municipality and are also local towns as defined by the Baden-Württemberg municipial code (Gemeindeordnung), each with its own local council (Ortsbeirat) and local head as its chairman (Ortsvorsteher).
The Altenheim district includes the village of Altenheim, the Rohrburger Mühle farmstead and the Altenheimer Mühle and Rheinwärterhaus residences. The Dundenheim district includes the village of Dundenheim and the Dundenheimer Mühle farmstead. The Ichenheim district includes the village of Ichenheim, the Ottenweierhof farmstead and the Einzelwohnhaus residency. The Müllen district includes the village of Müllen with the former water castle of Müllen (Wasserschloss Müllen). The Schutterzell district includes the village of Schutterzell and the Schutterzeller Mühle farmstead.
The district of Altenheim was home to the abandoned Waseneck Castle. The abandoned villages of Rode and Zellhof are located in the district of Dundenheim. The ruined castle (Burgstall) Blankenmoos and the deserted settlement Trudenheim are located in the district of Ichenheim.[2]
History
[edit]Municipal Merger
[edit]
Neuried was created in the course of the Baden-Württemberg municipal reform on January 1, 1973 through a voluntary merger of the formerly independent municipalities of Altenheim, Dundenheim, Ichenheim and Müllen. The municipality of Schutterzell was already incorporated into Ichenheim on January 1, 1972.[3] Until 1972, Altenheim and Müllen belonged to the District of Kehl, while Dundenheim, Ichenheim and Schutterzell belonged to the District of Lahr. With the dissolution of these two districts, the current municipality became part of the new Ortenau district.

Partnerships
[edit]On January 24, 2022, the Alsatian municipality of Plobsheim officially entered into a partnership with the district of Altenheim.[7]
Religions
[edit]In addition to two Protestant and two Roman Catholic parishes, the New Apostolic Church, the Jehovah's Witnesses and the Seventh-day Adventists are also represented in Neuried. Since the deanery reform on January 1, 2008, Neuried and its districts, with the St. Ulrich, St. Nicholas, St. John and St. Michael churches, have been part of the Offenburg-Kinzigtal deanery and also belong to the Schutterwald-Hohberg-Neuried pastoral care unit.
Sights
[edit]Buildings
[edit]- The Protestant Church of Peace in the Altenheim district was designed by Friedrich Weinbrenner himself and built in 1813 and restored after being destroyed in World War II.[8] The building counts as one of the most beautiful neoclassical churches in Baden. There is an exciting contrast between its smooth and unadorned façade, typical of the style, and the surrounding delicate half-timbered houses. The interior of the church was extensively renovated between 2004 and 2006 and a new organ with 30 Organ stop on two manuals and pedal was built by the organ builder Karl Göckel to plans by Markus Artur Fuchs and Christoph Manuel Beysser.
- The Catholic church of St. Nicholas in the Ichenheim district was built in 1822 by Hans Voß, a student of Weinbrenner. It is one of the most formally reduced church buildings of Baden classicism. Like the Altenheim church, it benefits from the monumental effect of clearly defined structures.
- The Catholic church of St. Johannes in the Dundenheim district, built between 1823 and 1824, was also designed by Hans Voß. The original high altar was replaced in 1880 by a work by Franz Josef Simmler. The local scribe Markus Weißenegger had already made a Mother of God altar for the church in 1860 and a St. Joseph altar in 1864.[9]
- Schutterzell is home to one of the rare shared churches that are used for both Catholic and Protestant services. It is one of two such church buildings in Baden used by two denominations (see St. Juliana Collegiate Church (Mosbach)) and was already planned as such.[10] This church, completed in 1862, is also in the style of Weinbrenner.
- The Emilie Musuem Bunker , which was part of the Siegfried Line and a "Regelbau 11" type structure, is located in Altenheim. It was built in 1938 to guard the hinterland in order to prevent an attack on Offenburg. The bunker could accommodate 27 soldiers in two crew quarters. The bunker also had two gas locks, a defensable entrace and a separately accessible fighting compartment. The armament consisted of 2 MG 34 on a Gun carriage and 2 MG for the soldiers in trenches around the bunker. The ceiling was 2 meters thick. The bunker was disguised as a residential building, where a woman, "Emilie", found shelter during the war. Filled with concrete after the war, the bunker was emptied again by the new owners in 1990 and used as a motorcycle clubhouse. It has served as a museum since the end of 2009.[11]
- The European Forum by the Rhine (Europäisches Forum am Rhein), which opened in 2019, is located in the north-west of Altenheim.
- The Pierre Pflimlin Bridge connects Neuried with the south of the Strasbourg conurbation.
Local Recreation
[edit]Since 2014, there has been a 2.5 km long floodplain wilderness trail through the Rhine floodplains in the north of Altenheim[12][13]
Culture
[edit]
The bi-national theater BAAL novo (now known as The Theatre Eurodistrict BAden ALsace) is located in the European Forum by the Rhine.[14] Under the artistic direction of Diana Zöller and Edzard Schoppmann, contemporary plays are performed in German and French. The theater seats 150 guests.
Economy and Infrastructure
[edit]Agriculture still plays a major role, especially tobacco growing. With an area of around 470 hectares, Neuried is the largest tobacco-growing community in Germany. The municipality has around 1000 local jobs, meaning that the majority of the workforce commutes to the surrounding towns of Offenburg, Kehl and Lahr.
Education
[edit]Neuried has five Protestant (three in Altenheim, one each in Ichenheim and Dundenheim) and two Catholic (Ichenheim and Schutterzell) kindergartens. The Johann-Henrich-Büttner-Schule in Altenheim contains a primary school and secondary school (Hauptschule), while Ichenheim has a secondary school (Hauptschule) and Real school and intermediate school (Werkrealschule) and a primary school in both Ichenheim and Dundenheim. From the 2014/2015 school year, no more primary school pupils were enrolled in Dundenheim[15], and the elementary school in Dundenheim was closed in 2018. Gymnasiums are located in the nearby district towns of Offenburg, Lahr and Kehl.
Geothermial Energy
[edit]The first borehole for a geothermal energy utilization project in the municipality was to be drilled in 2014. This was postponed until 2016 due to an ongoing lawsuit by the town of Kehl[16] against the deep geothermal plant and a citizens' protest. Possible use was intended to supplement the biomass power plant launched in 2007 as a hybrid power plant.[17] In July of the same year, a citizens' initiative (Bürgerinitiative) was formed in the affected municipalities of Kehl, Neuried, Schutterwald and Willstätt against the deep geothermal drilling.[18] The regional plan blocks the area near the planned geothermal power plant.[19] After the Regional Council of Freiburg withdrew its approval to explore geothermal energy in March 2021,[20] the city bought back the land earmarked for geothermal energy in September 2021.[21]
Transport
[edit]The towns in the current municipality were served by the central Baden railway (Mittelbadische Eisenbahn) until 1959. There is currently no longer a connection to the German rail network. Neuried is connected to Lahr, Offenburg and Kehl by regional bus services.
The districts of Altenheim, Dundenheim and Ichenheim are crossed by the L 75 road in a north-south direction. In the north of the municipality, the L 98 road forms a link to the national route 353 and federal highway 5, which crosses the municipality in the Schutterzell area.
