Holzkirchen

Holzkirchen extends across 48 square kilometers of land at an elevation of 691 meters in the Bavarian region of Upper Bavaria.

The settlement's origins trace back to the Bronze Age, with two major Roman roads intersecting at this location before its first documentation as a market in 1286.

The St. Laurentius Catholic Church stands in the center while the Lutheran Blessing Church, built in 1998, represents the religious diversity of the community.

The municipality connects to Munich through regular train services and the A8 motorway, with the central market square serving as the main commercial area.

A geothermal power plant, operational since 2019, supplies sustainable heating energy to the entire municipality of 15,584 residents.
