Ertingen

Ertingen is a municipality in the district of Biberach in Upper Swabia, South Württemberg, Germany. Since the reform of 1975 it comprises Ertingen and the smaller communities, Erisdorf and Binzwangen, which had been independent before. Every of those communities can look back to a long history.

Having been largely agricultural in the past, the three communities have developed into places with a mixed population, consisting largely of industrial workers.

Owing to her companies whose performance is far above average, especially Ertingen has acquired the function of a centre of commerce and industry for the region.

In the course of time a large number of jobs in non-agricultural fields have been created. But there is still demand for jobs in trade and industry.

Ertingen will probably be rated as a so-called "subcentre" in the future regional planning.

Ertingen offers outstanding public services, like primary and secondary schools, a swimming pool, a nursing home with 48 beds, kindergartens, and an adult education centre.
