history

The place name indicates an origin around 800. Before 1286 the Reich Ministerial Ulrich von Sulzbürg (from the later Wolfstein family ) gave a fiefdom to Aßlschwang, the Seligenporten monastery . In 1299 Gottfried von Wolfstein gave Höfe zu Aßlschwang as a fief. In 1346 an Ulrich is named as "Wirth von Achselswang". In 1354 the brothers Götz and Albrecht von Wolfstein shared their property among themselves, including the tithe from “Aschelwang”. For 1542, a parish description from Möning says that the pastor there has, among other things, the small tenth in Aßlschwang. Parts of the big ten went to the auxiliary bishop of Eichstätt. In 1556 the Reformation was introduced under Count Palatine Ottheinrich ; In 1625 the Upper Palatinate and with it Aßlschwang became Catholic again.

Towards the end of the Old Kingdom , around 1800, Pyrbaum owned 13 1/16 of their 25 estates in Aßlschwang, acquired in 1769 by the Bavarian Elector from the Wolfstein allodial heirs, the Princes of Hohenlohe and Giech . Three half-yards and two 1/4 and 1/8 yards each belonged to the caste office in Neumarkt, one 1/4 yard and five 1/16 yards each to the Seligenporten monastery judge's office. The shepherd's house was communal property. The high jurisdiction exercised the electoral mayor's office in Neumarkt.

In the new Kingdom of Bavaria (1806), the municipality of Aßlschwang with Richthof, Rohr and the Reckenstetter Mühle was assigned to the Möning tax district between 1810 and 1820 . Without the mill, the three places Aßlschwang, Richthof and Rohr formed the rural community of Aßlschwang in the district court (from 1862 district office, from 1879 district) Neumarkt. In 1875 the community had a total of 353 inhabitants in its three towns. There were 48 buildings in the parish headquarters; eight horses and 170 head of cattle were kept there. In 1900 the 530.86 hectare community had 65 residential buildings and 336 residents. In the three places there were a total of 15 horses, 416 head of cattle, 82 sheep, 296 pigs and six goats. In 1961, 343 people lived in the community.

On February 13, 1931, Aßlschwang was removed from Möning and transferred to Freystadt.

With the regional reform in Bavaria, the municipality of Aßlschwang was incorporated into the city of Freystadt on January 1, 1972.
