Feuerbach is a district of the city of Stuttgart. Its name is derived from the small river of the same name that flows from the neighboring district of Botnang through Feuerbach. Feuerbach is home to one of Germany's biggest industrial giants and is surrounded by the districts of Zuffenhausen, Bad Cannstatt, Stuttgart-North, Stuttgart-West, Botnang and Weilimdorf. == History == The remains of a prehistoric settlement were uncovered in 1904, when the pastor of Feuerbach, Richard Kallee excavated, archeologically documented and published a total of 102 Alemannic sandstone tombs and cists. 〔Heinz Krämer: ''(Fertig Feuerbach! Richard Kallee, Pfarrer und Geschichtsforscher, )'' in German, DRW Verlag, Leinfelden-Echterdingen, 2004, ISBN 3-87181-016-9.〕 〔''(Was die alten Steine in Feuerbach erzählen, )'' in German, 1923.〕 Together with his helpers he took great care to recover 760 artifacts from these Alemannic graves: skulls and bones, coins, pottery shards, combs, necklaces, belts, locks, swords, spears, arrows and spores, which he researched and published to the end of his life. These are now exhibited in the foyer of the district town hall of Feuerbach. The first recorded mention of Feuerbach was in the annals of Hirsau Abbey in 1075 although the name used at the time was Biberbach. This name translates literally as 'beaver-brook', a reference to beavers in Feuerbach valley. The beaver still features on the town's coat of arms today - alongside a cog representing its modern industrial nature and the large number of factories in the area. Later the community was called Fürbach, which then developed by the end of the 16th century into the name used today. Until 1860 Feuerbach was mainly a rural community outside the larger city of Stuttgart. As well as traditional farming, the area housed a large number of vineyards. The Killesberg area included a number of stone quarries - with many of the sheer rock faces in this area still visible to this day. In 1848 the first railway tunnel was built between Stuttgart and Feuerbach, marking the advent of rapid industrial development in the area. Among others this involved the Robert Bosch company, which built a major factory in the town. On 15 March 1907 Feuerbach was officially raised to the status of a town in its own right. In 1929 Feuerbach merged voluntarily with the neighboring community of modern-day Stuttgart-Weilimdorf. On 1 May 1933 Feuerbach was engulfed by the expanding city of Stuttgart and given the status of "Feuerbach district". During the division of Stuttgart into Stadtbezirke (city districts) in 1956, Feuerbach was officially named ''Feuerbach Stadtbezirk''. City district changes on 1 January 2001 resulted in the division of Feuerbach into the neighbourhoods of ''An der Burg'', ''Bahnhof Feuerbach'', ''Feuerbach-Mitte'', ''Feuerbach-Ost'', ''Feuerbacher Tal'', ''Hohe Warte'', ''Lemberg/Föhrich'' and ''Siegelberg''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Stuttgart-Feuerbach」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
