Weilheim

Weilheim is a town in Germany, the capital of the district Weilheim Schongau inside the south of Bavaria. Weilheim has a vintage city wall, historic houses and a museum. The oldest strains of human settlement date returned to the Bronze Age and there have been grave reveals from the Late Roman technology. The name Weilheim is interpreted as a home to the Roman villas. There are, however, several other theories for the roots of the name. Upper Bavaria came in Roman hands through Commander Drusus. The Romans built Via Raetia in 200 AD, which led over the Brenner Pass to Augsburg. This Roman Avenue ran through the Weilheim vicinity.

Around 476 AD, the Romans withdrew southwards and the Bavarians got here into the region. The Franciscan monastery in Weilheim was abolished because of the secularization in 1802. 120 houses burnt down and two people have been killed in a extreme fire disaster inside the Oberen Stadt lit upper metropolis on 3 May 1810. The former Franciscan monastery burnt down in 1825, and then a Heiliggeistspital became built and a sanatorium on ultra-modern Munchner Strasse in 1826. On 1 October 1869, the primary day by day newspaper becomes posted, the Weilheimer Tagblatt.
