The original Erdinger Weissbier is a well-known Bavarian specialty.
Erding is located around 31 kilometers northeast of central Munich, about a 30-minute drive by car. Regular S-Bahn trains connect to Munich and beyond.
Evidence of prehistoric hunter/gatherers in the Erding area dates to c. 6000 BC, findings including an axe made of deer antler. Excavations of two dwellings of at least 6.5 metres in length near Altenerding from c. 2500 BC provide the first evidence of permanent agricultural based inhabitants, while some twenty early Bronze Age graveyards from c. 1800 BC have been found in Langenpreising.
Erding was founded in 1228–1230, developing as a township on an alternative route from Landshut to Munich. Erding became known as a border town, midway between the two rival cities. During the Thirty Years' War, Erding was taken twice by Swedish troops, who plundered it and set it on fire.
In 1945, several Allied air raids on the nearby military airport damaged the city and killed numerous inhabitants.[citation needed]
On March 24, 1950 three Douglas DC-3s from Czechoslovakia were simultaneously hijacked. All three planes landed in Erding, West Germany. 26 of 85 passengers stayed in West Germany to escape from Czechoslovakia's Communist regime.[3][4][5]
In 1972 Erding was connected to Munich's S-Bahn network. In 1992 Munich Airport was opened; the decision to build a major airport on the ecologically sensitive Erdinger Moos had been a source of controversy during the previous decade. The airport has attracted new businesses and additional population to the area.
Economy
Farm fields surround Erding and large agricultural vehicles are a common sight on local roads. Local crops include corn for animal feed, wheat, sunflowers, carrots, white/red/blue/green cabbages, strawberries, kohlrabi, turnips, and sugar beet. Farm animals are normally kept in stables and are mostly limited to pigs, chickens and cows. Fish farming in privately owned lakes is also practised. Gardening is also practiced in Erding, but is limited by the relatively cool climate.
