About Oßweil
What are the main landmarks in Oßweil?
Two names, both local. The Holderburg carries the district's name in its own, and it is the point most people mean when they say there is something to see in Oßweil. The dedication to St. Januarius supplies the other.
Holderburg Oßweil and that dedication are the whole of the district's landmark register, which is a short list for seven square kilometres and an honest one.
What is the history of Oßweil?
The name survives on both sites. Oßweil appears in the label of Holderburg Oßweil as well as on the district itself, which is how a settlement absorbed into Ludwigsburg keeps its identity legible on a map. St. Januarius carries the parish side.
Seven square kilometres of Ludwigsburg answer to the name, and the two named sites are what the district has kept from the time before that.
Where is Oßweil?
Oßweil covers roughly seven square kilometres of Ludwigsburg, with Holderburg Oßweil on one side of the district and St. Januarius among its streets.
