In the course of the administrative reforms in Bavaria between 1808 and 1818, Aschheim and Dornach became independent political communities. Aschheim Central School was completed in 1813, and a larger building was built in 1905. In 1835, the Bavarian king was awarded the last estate in Aschheim. In 1929 the Ismaning Reservoir was built to the north of Aschheim. On May 1, 1978, Aschheim and Dornach were united to form the municipality of Aschheim in the course of further administrative reforms. Notable people
