Gröbenzell
Gröbenzell is a municipality near Munich in the district Fürstenfeldbruck, in Bavaria, Germany. It was founded in 1952, and has a population of 19,202. Gröbenzell is often called a garden city, which is also illustrated by the two flowers in the coat of arms. Geography Gröbenzell is located at the creek Gröbenbach at the margin of the Dachauer Moos, an area that once was predominantly marshy. Since the end of the 19th century, most of that land was dried up by Drainage. Nowadays most of the surrounding area is used as farmland.

Olching
Olching (Central Bavarian: ''Oiching'') is a town in the district of Fürstenfeldbruck, in Bavaria, Germany. It is situated approximately 20 km (12 mi) northwest of Munich. Geography Olching lies approximately halfway between Dachau and Fürstenfeldbruck, and stretches along both sides of the River Amper. There are two picturesque man-made lakes to the east of Olching, namely the ''Olchinger See'' (Lake Olching) and the eponymous ''Kleiner See'' (Small Lake), both of which border on the neighbouring community of Gröbenzell. In recent years, Olching has expanded considerably through new building work to meet the demand for housing outside Munich while taking advantage of its good communications, which allow a reasonable commute for those still working in the city and its outskirts. These new developments, especially ''Schwaigfeld'', located north-east of the town centre — close to Olching's motorway exit — have attracted controversy amongst some locals for thei ...
