History
Originally, the area was called Schleissheim ("Sleizheim") for centuries. Not until the 19th Century was it divided into (upper) Oberschleissheim and (lower) Unterschleissheim for population and political reasons. The small hamlet of Mittenheim lay between the two communities.
There is evidence that the area was inhabited as far back as the Bronze Age. Remnents of a road marker and a Villa Rustica were found from the Roman Era.
The first surviving document in which Schleißheim is mentioned comes from the year 785 AD in which Rihpalt von Slivesheim donated his estate to the diocese of Freising. The hamlet “Schleyßaim” was already a village as early as the 12th century.
The small church of St. Martin in Mallertshofen, (a Romanesque church) was built in the Schleissheim area in the first half of the 13th century.
The catholic church building of St. Ulrich was first built in 1518.
The community suffered heavy losses during the Thirty Years' War (1618–48).
The Palace Complex in Schleissheim was built over a period of 130 years, (from the 1590s by the Dukes of Bavaria, to the 1720s by the Electors of Bavaria). The palace was mostly used as a summer residence for the Bavarian rulers of the House of Wittelsbach.
