history

Österberg, today a branch church village of Obermässing, was first mentioned in the 12th century: Between 1146 and 1149 the local nobility Chunrad / Konrad von "Osterberch" handed over all his property including the local church with the consent of his children to the Plankstetten monastery for one day. To secure this donation, the Bishop of Eichstätt , Gebhard II. , Took it under episcopal protection in his and his successors. The village was officially awarded to the Hochstift on October 19, 1305 in the Gaimersheim arbitration, which ended the dispute between the Hochstift Eichstätt and the Kurbaier dukes over the "Hirschberg legacy". In 1350 a Marquart von Viehhausen , sat at "Osterperg", is mentioned. When Bishop Friedrich IV. Count von Oettingen acquired a number of farms and estates from the inheritance of Hilpolt vom Stein von Schweiger / Schwaigger / Sweiker von Gundelfingen in 1398, among them were the large and small tithes of Österberg. In 1414 the monastery of St. Walburg zu Eichstätt gave Fritz Schenk von Geyern zu Uttenhofen the custody of his property in Österberg, in 1478 to Hans Schenk von Geyern and in 1493 to Hieronymus von Rosenberg, knight of Uttenhofen / Jettenhofen. In 1484 the Neumarkt Count Palatine Otto II tried to use various harassments to reach high and low jurisdiction, including over Österberg; Bishop Wilhelm von Reichenau then lodged a protest with the Duke of Munich . In 1589, the Eichstatt Bishop Martin von Schaumberg was able to acquire the right of patronage over the church in Österberg from Hans Konrad von Absberg .

At the end of the Old Kingdom , the 20 subjects of the completely Eichstättischen village belonged to the following manors:

  • 1 subject to the monastery judge of St. Walburg in Eichstätt
  • 1 Subject to the cathedral capital judicial office in Eichstätt
  • 8 subjects to the monastery magistrate's office in Plankstetten
  • 4 subjects to the Obermässing care and caste office
  • 6 subjects to the judicial office of Greding.

There was also a shepherd's house and a community forge. The high courts and the village and community domination exercised the magistracy Greding from - the latter with the exception of the property of the monastery of St. Walburg, which exercised this right in Viehhausen itself.

After the bishopric of Eichstätt had been dissolved in the course of secularization in Bavaria , Österberg and the former bishopric came to Grand Duke Archduke Ferdinand III in 1802 . from Tuscany and 1805/06 to the new Kingdom of Bavaria and there to the regional court of Beilngries . In 1809 the tax district Österberg was formed, to which Kleinnottersdorf and Viehhausen still belonged. In 1811 the tax district became the rural community of Österberg. With the municipal edict of 1818, all three places became independent rural communities. In 1857 the municipality of Österberg and seven other municipalities were removed from the Beilngries regional court and assigned to the nearby Greding regional court .

In 1846 there were 128 "souls" in the village under the community leader Joseph Bauer, in addition to the farmers, a landlord, a butcher and a blacksmith. In 1875 there were 13 horses, 157 cattle, 201 sheep and 78 pigs in the village of 132 inhabitants. In 1900 the livestock had grown to 20 horses, 185 head of cattle, 168 sheep, 158 pigs and two goats.

In 1903 a school was built in Österberg and Kleinnottersdorf and Viehhausen started school. The teacher also acted as organist at St. Stephan. The school existed until 1969.

As part of the regional reform in Bavaria , the municipality of Österberg joined the city of Greding on January 1, 1972.

Water supply

Information panel water supply

For centuries, the supply of water to humans and animals on the arid Alb plateau was problematic. Private and public “shells”, fed by surface water, served to supply the cattle with water and for extinguishing purposes. In addition, there were ten pump and scoop wells in the village for obtaining drinking water. In very dry summers, the spring water from the forest ravine (nature reserve Bach and Schluchtwald near Untermässing ) was collected in the “Burschl” and transported to the village in wooden barrels and tubs. In 1912, after the construction of the water tower in Viehhausen, the connection to the "Kleinnottersdorfer Group" followed and in September 1978 to the "Jura-Schwarzach-Thalach Group"

Catholic branch church St. Stephanus

The Filialkirche is a Romanesque fortified church of the 12th century of the choir tower type . In 1422 a St. George altar was consecrated; In 1497 a sacraments with eternal light is mentioned. From 1690/91 the nave was extended to the west to a total of 14 × 5.5 meters and redesigned in a baroque style, according to plans by Johann Baptist Camesino and Jakob Engel ; Because of the extension to the cemetery wall, the annual tour around the church on the feast of St. Stephan no longer possible. During this renovation, a gallery was built in and the tower was raised by one storey and closed with a lantern and dome. The pulpit, a carpenter's work from Obermässing, came into the church at the same time. The high altar, paid for in 1699, shows three late Gothic figures instead of one altarpiece (Mary with the baby Jesus, St. Stephen, St. Laurentius; around 1500). The rich stucco of the interior comes from more recent times and was made by Hirsch and Maile from Munich. The tower was partially dismantled and restored in 1904. In 1908 a statue of the Sacred Heart by the Innsbruck artist Stufler came to the church. In 1911 the sacred building received a 6-register organ from the Eichstätter organ builder Josef Bittner. In 1938 three bells were cast in the tower, 1764, 1779 and 1930. In 1872 an emeritus beneficiary was founded in Österberg.

In 1938 there were two brick statues, two crosses and three pillars of torture in the corridor of small religious monuments. A wayside shrine on the western edge of the village and two small farmhouses (Waldstrasse 11 and 12) are considered architectural monuments in addition to the church.
