Several things connected the families of [[Otto Eckart (Da VIII 23)/en|Otto]] and [[Friedrich Eckart (Da VIII 17)/en|Fritz Eckart]] to the municipality of Poing. The two brothers, both passionate hunters, had taken a lease on the hunting grounds in Poing and Grub. Their father [[Johannes Eckart (Da VII 10)/en|Johannes Eckart]]’s former [[Das Landgut Grub bei Poing/en|estate]], which supplied the canning factory of Johannes Eckart with farm produce, was in Grub near Poing. While walking through Poing in the summer of 1910, Otto and Anita discovered an old, vacant house. There was an old pumping well in the garden, two chestnut trees in front of the house, a few ash trees in the west, and the south-facing side of the house was overgrown with a wildly growing real grapevine. This spacious house no. 40 was the former schoolhouse of Poing. It had been built in 1873 by master builder Johann Baptist Haydn. A new one was built in 1908 as the number of pupils had tripled over the decades and the house had become too small. The old schoolhouse remained vacant for two years.

That summer, in 1910, Anita and Otto Eckart rented the house as summer residence for a monthly rent of ten Deutsche Mark; on October 3, 1910, the couple bought the house. The money for buying and then renovating the house came from Adolf Hoppe, Anita Eckart’s father. Considerable work had to be done before the young family was able to move in: walls were replaced, a room with balcony and veranda was added, a cellar was dug out, a new front door with porch was built, damaged brickwork was repaired and the whole house was thoroughly renovated. The next challenge was the garden: the grapevine had died during the reconstruction, so two apple trees and a cherry tree were planted at the south-facing side to replace it. Otto had a small hill constructed close to the fence of the property, using building rubble and excavated earth from the cellar; an alpine garden and a small log cabin were soon erected on this hill, the so-called “coffee hill”. The reconstruction measures took some time, but the family was able to move into the house on April 1, 1911.

====== Residence and Central Reference Point in Poing ======
The actual house-warming party took place on Whit Sunday in 1911. At this point, if not before, it was becoming clear that Poing would soon be an important reference point; not only for the family, but also for friends and acquaintances. Many guests came and were happy to stay the night, and sometimes even stayed with the family of Anita and Otto Eckart at the estate in Poing for several weeks. Along with two girls who helped Anita with the household, the family employed a servant who was also the gardener. On November 4, 1911, Otto bought the neighboring property so as to extend the garden to the east. In 1912, he was able to resell part of the new property, including an old, dilapidated house. Furthermore, the family exchanged 0.044 ha of the newly acquired property for 0.038 ha of a property called “Franzosenbreite” (literally translated: breadth of the French) with their neighbor Gerbl.

Otto started to breed dogs, and this was soon followed by pigeons. Between six and 16 dogs always lived in the large spacious dog kennel. A room in the attic was converted into a loft for carrier pigeons. Pigeon races were often held for the guests and bets could be placed. The Eckart family received many prizes for their pigeons, among them the Silver State Medal of Bavaria. During World War I, the carrier pigeons were confiscated as trained military pigeons. What is more, they were no longer allowed to fly out, but had to be kept in the loft.

Drei Jahre lebte die Familie in Poing. Im Oktober 1914 mietete die Familie wieder eine Wohnung in München. Die erstgeborene Tochter Ruth war schulpflichtig geworden und sollte in München zur Schule gehen. Der Weg war zu weit, um täglich zu pendeln. Das Anwesen in Poing sollte in Zukunft nur noch die sommerliche Residenz der Familie sein. Ferien und Feiertage verbrachte die Familie weiterhin in Poing. So auch Weihnachten 1914.
The family lived in Poing for three years. In October 1914, the family rented an apartment again in Munich. The firstborn daughter Ruth had reached compulsory school age and was supposed to go to school in Munich. The distance was too far to commute every day. From that time on, the estate in Poing was only supposed to be used as the family’s summer residence. The family continued to spend school and public holidays in Poing, including the Christmas of 1914.


Den Ersten Weltkrieg verbrachte die Familie Eckart die meiste Zeit in Kiel. Erst mit dem Ende des Krieges kam die Familie wieder zurück nach Poing. Die Zeit der Münchner Räterepublik verbrachten sie hier. Auch waren zu dieser Zeit Offiziere eines in München mordenden Freikorps in dem Anwesen in Poing einquartiert. [[Datei:1919_F03069_Poing_Laurenthaus.jpg|400px|thumb|right|Das Laurent-Haus, kurz bevor es abgerissen wurde und dem neuen Ökonomie-Gebäude weichen musste.]]
The Eckart family spent most of World War I in Kiel in Northern Germany. They only moved back to Poing at the end of the war and this is where they stayed during the time of the Munich Soviet Republic. At that time, officers of a Freikorps (paramilitary unit) that murdered people in Munich were accommodated at the estate in Poing.

====== Das neue Ökonomie Gebäude ======
====== The New Farm Building ======
Zwischen 1915 und 1919 wurde der Besitz in Poing um fünf Hektar Äcker und Wiesen und das benachbarte Haus Nr. 35, das sogenannte Laurent-Haus, erweitert. Das Laurent-Haus ließen Otto und Anita 1919 abreißen und nach den Plänen des Architekten Max Roth durch den Baumeister Lanzl für insgesamt 100.000 Mark ein neues Ökonomie Gebäude errichten. Hier wurden im Erdgeschoss drei Zimmer und eine Wohnküche für den Gärtner und seine Familie, im ersten Stock drei Zimmer und Wohnküche als Gästewohnung eingerichtet. Erster Gast war Alfons Hoppe, Anitas Vater, der auch dieses Mal der Familie finanziell unter die Arme gegriffen hatte und sämtliche Einrichtung des Gästehauses gestiftet hatte.
Between 1915 and 1919, the estate in Poing was extended by five hectares, which included fields and meadows as well as the neighboring house no. 35, the so-called Laurent house. Otto and Anita had Laurent house demolished in 1919; master builder Lanzl built a new farm building for a total of 100,000 Deutsche Mark according to plans by the architect Max Roth. It was in this building that three rooms and a kitchen-cum-living room on the first floor were furnished for the gardener and his family, while three rooms and a kitchen-cum-living room on the second floor were furnished as a guest apartment. The first guest was Alfons Hoppe, Anita’s father, who had provided financial support to the family again, funding all the furnishings for the guest house.


Der landwirtschaftliche Betrieb in und um das Anwesen in Poing wuchs beständig. 1932 umfasste es inzwischen 18 Tagwerk Land, die Eselstute Mina von Barnhelm, drei bis vier Kühe, zwei Pferde und dazu noch einige Schweine und Geflügel. Nach dem Krieg hatte sich der Lebensmittelpunkt der Familie Otto Eckart wieder nach München verlagert. In Poing kümmerten sich der im Ökonomie Gebäude wohnende Gärtner mitsamt seiner Familie hauptsächlich um die Landwirtschaft der Eckarts. Als der Gärtner 1932 kündigte, um einen eigenen Hof zu gründen, beschlossen Anita und Otto die Landwirtschaft in Poing aufzugeben. Die Wiesen und Äcker wurden verpachtet, das lebende und tote Inventar verkauft. Noch im gleichen Jahr beschloss das Ehepaar auch das Haus Nr. 40, inzwischen eine stattliche Villa, in Zukunft zu vermieten. Auslöser dafür war, dass in den langen Abwesenheiten der Familie zweimal in der Villa eingebrochen worden war. Aber auch der Unterhalt der Villa war kein unerheblicher Aufwand. Die Familie Otto Eckart kam weiterhin im Sommer und zu den Feiertagen nach Poing, sie wohnten dann in der Gastwohnung im ersten Stock des Ökonomiegebäudes.
The farm at and around the estate in Poing grew steadily. In 1932, there were 18 Tagwerk of land (an old German surface measure; one Tagwerk corresponds to approximately 3,408 m<sup>2</sup>), the female donkey "Mina von Barnhelm", three to four cows, two horses and several pigs as well as poultry. In the aftermath of the war, Otto Eckart’s family had taken residence again in Munich. In Poing, it was mainly the gardener and his family residing in the farm building who took care of the Eckarts’ agriculture. When the gardener resigned in 1932 in order to establish his own farm, Anita and Otto decided to abandon their agricultural holding. The meadows and fields were rented out, the livestock and the deadstock were sold. That same year, the couple also decided to rent out the house no. 40 in the future, now a magnificent villa. This decision was triggered by the fact that the house had been burgled twice during the family’s long absences, though much effort was required to maintain the villa. Otto Eckart’s family continued to come to Poing in the summer and during the public holidays, from then on staying in the guest apartment on the second floor of the farm building.


Dauerhaft von der Familie Eckart bewohnt war das Anwesen in Poing erst wieder im Spätsommer 1939. Am 17. September 1939 zog [[Ruth Eckart (Da IX 32)|Ruth]], die älteste Tochter von Otto und Anita, mit ihren drei Kindern von Berlin nach Poing. Ihr Mann, [[Fritz Reuter (Da IX 31)|Fritz Reuter]], musste beruflich in Berlin bleiben. Zur Versorgung während des Krieges begann Ruth auch erneut mit landwirtschaftlicher Tierhaltung. Wegen der Bombardierung Münchens kamen 1944 schließlich auch die restlichen Familienmitglieder wieder nach Poing: [[Hedwig Reuther (Da IX 30)|Tante Hedwig]] und [[Ingeburg Eckart (Da IX 38)|Inge]], [[Werner Eckart (Da IX 33)|Werner und Anny]] mit Ihren Kindern [[Otto Eckart (Da X 54)|Otto]], [[Heidi Eckart (Da X 55)|Heidi]] und [[Gisela Eckart (Da X 56)|Gisela]]. Während des Krieges waren auch immer wieder Soldatenkompanien im Poinger Anwesen untergebracht.
Members of the Eckart family only lived permanently at the estate in Poing again in late summer of 1939. [[Ruth Eckart (Da IX 32)/en|Ruth]], the eldest daughter of Otto and Anita, moved from Berlin to Poing with her three children on September 17, 1939. Her husband, [[Fritz Reuter (Da IX 31)/en|Fritz Reuter]], had to stay in Berlin for work. Ruth also started to keep livestock again for food supply during the war. Eventually, the other family members returned to Poing in 1944 due to the bombing of Munich: [[Hedwig Reuther (Da IX 30)/en|Aunt Hedwig]] and [[Ingeburg Eckart (Da IX 38)/en|Inge]], [[Werner Eckart (Da IX 33)/en|Werner and Anny]] with their children [[Otto Eckart (Da X 54)/en|Otto]], [[Heidi Eckart (Da X 55)/en|Heidi]], and [[Gisela Eckart (Da X 56)/en|Gisela]]. Time and again, companies of soldiers were also accommodated at the estate in Poing during the war.


Nach dem Tod von Otto und Anita kam der Landsitz Poing in Besitz von Ruth Eckart und ihrem Mann Fritz Reuter, der hier 1971 starb. Ruths Sohn [[Klaus Reuter (Da X 53)|Klaus Reuter]] baute in den 1960er Jahren ein Haus in den Park neben die Villa, wo er mit seiner Frau Marianne und seinen Söhnen [[Wolfgang Reuter (Da XI 97)|Wolfgang]], [[Thomas Reuter (Da XI 98)|Thomas]] und [[Stefan Reuter (Da XI 99)|Stefan]] lebte und auch seine Praxis als Allgemeinmediziner führte. Das Ökonomiegebäude an der Anzigerstraße wurde an den Nachbarn verkauft, abgerissen und etwa im Jahr 2000 ein Wohnblock auf das Grundstück gebaut. Der Park wurde verkleinert und der Gemeinde als Reuterpark verkauft. Marianne Reuter verkaufte ca. 2016/17 den letzten Besitz, die alte Villa.
Following the deaths of Otto and Anita, the estate in Poing came into the possession of Ruth Eckart and her husband Fritz Reuter, who died here in 1971. Ruth’s son [[Klaus Reuter (Da X 53)/en|Klaus Reuter]] built a house in the park next to the villa in the 1960s; this is where he lived with his wife Marianne and his sons [[Wolfgang Reuter (Da XI 97)/en|Wolfgang]], [[Thomas Reuter (Da XI 98)/en|Thomas]], and [[Stefan Reuter (Da XI 99)/en|Stefan]] and where he also had his general practitioner’s surgery. The farm building located in the street Anzinger Strasse was sold to the neighbor and demolished; an apartment house was built on this plot around the year 2000. The park was made smaller and sold to the municipality under the name "Reuterpark". Around 2016/17, Marianne Reuter sold her last property, the old villa.

After an extensive renovation, the old schoolhouse had become a magnificent villa.
The Old Schoolhouse in Poing

Several things connected the families of Otto and Fritz Eckart to the municipality of Poing. The two brothers, both passionate hunters, had taken a lease on the hunting grounds in Poing and Grub. Their father Johannes Eckart’s former estate, which supplied the canning factory "Johs. Eckart Konservenfabrik" with farm produce, was in Grub near Poing. While walking through Poing in the summer of 1910, Otto and Anita discovered an old, vacant house. There was an old pumping well in the garden, two chestnut trees in front of the house, a few ash trees in the west, and the south-facing side of the house was overgrown with a wildly growing real grapevine. This spacious house no. 40 was the former schoolhouse of Poing. It had been built in 1873 by master builder Johann Baptist Haydn. A new one was built in 1908 as the number of pupils had tripled over the decades and the house had become too small. The old schoolhouse remained vacant for two years.
