Overview

Bernhausen is a settlement in the German state of Baden-Württemberg and one of the quarters of the town of Filderstadt in the Esslingen district. It is not a commercial brand, company, product line, or consumer-facing trademark in the usual sense. The name identifies a historically independent municipality that was incorporated into the newly formed town of Filderstadt in 1975. The settlement is documented from 1089 under the historical name Berinhusen. Its development took place within the Filder plain, a populated agricultural and transport region south of Stuttgart. Over time, Bernhausen became one of the larger communities in the area and developed the civic and transport functions associated with a local administrative center. In 1975, Bernhausen was merged with the municipalities of Bonlanden, Plattenhardt, Sielmingen, and Harthausen to create Filderstadt. Following the merger, Bernhausen ceased to exist as an independent municipality but remained a distinct quarter within the new town. Its formal contemporary designation is Filderstadt-Bernhausen. Bernhausen has an important transport role within Filderstadt. Filderstadt station, located in Bernhausen, is the southern terminus of line S2 of the Stuttgart S-Bahn network. This connection links the quarter with Stuttgart and other communities in the metropolitan region. The station and its surrounding urban area reinforce Bernhausen's role as a local center rather than merely a residential settlement. The quarter has a population of approximately 13,216 according to the cited reference material. Its present identity combines medieval settlement history, incorporation into the modern municipal structure of Filderstadt, and integration into the Stuttgart regional transit system. Because the authoritative subject is a geographic locality rather than a business brand, commercial fields such as products, flagship offerings, executives, campaigns, and financial information are not applicable or are left empty.

History

Bernhausen is a historic settlement on the Filder plain in Baden-Württemberg, Germany. The earliest cited written record dates from 1089, when the place appeared under the name Berinhusen. This medieval reference establishes Bernhausen as a settlement with more than nine centuries of documented history. The community developed as part of the wider Filder region south of Stuttgart. Its history was shaped by the region's agricultural character, its proximity to Stuttgart, and the gradual growth of neighboring villages. Before municipal reorganization, Bernhausen functioned as an independent municipality in the Esslingen district. A major institutional change occurred in 1975. Bernhausen was merged with Bonlanden, Plattenhardt, Sielmingen, and Harthausen to establish the new town of Filderstadt. The merger ended Bernhausen's status as a separate municipality while preserving it as a named locality within the new municipal structure. It is now formally referred to as Filderstadt-Bernhausen. The quarter's later development has been closely connected with regional mobility. Filderstadt station is situated in Bernhausen and serves as the terminus of Stuttgart S-Bahn line S2. The rail connection gives Bernhausen direct access to the Stuttgart metropolitan transport network and contributes to its role as a prominent quarter of Filderstadt. The cited reference material gives Bernhausen a population of 13,216 inhabitants.
