history
Until the church is planted
The Achslacher valley is located in the so-called Karolinger Wald (northern forest) which was settled from the Metten monastery from the 9th century . In the 11th century this activity was taken over by the Counts of Bogen .
Achslach was mentioned for the first time in 1115 under the name Drasloha . At that time, the Ministeriale Eppo de Drasloha appeared in the entourage of Count Adalbert I. von Bogen on a deed of foundation of the Oberalteich monastery . Subsequently, in agreement with the Metten Monastery, a count's chamber property was created here, administered by Eppo . On December 11th, 1126, Eppo de Drahsala was again named as a witness on a deed of foundation for the Oberalteich monastery issued by Pope Honorius II in the Lateran in Rome .
After the Counts of Bogen died out in 1242, the area became the property of the Wittelsbach family .
In 1409, a letter of inheritance, sealed by the knight Eberhard the Nussberger, reported that the chamber property had a tolerable tavern (beer tavern ) attached to it.
In a document from the year 1431 the knight Hans von left Degen mountain the monastery Gotteszell the hunting ground (hunting law) in the Oxla.
In 1464 Achslach became the seat of a main team . It was also the seat of an official of the five offices of the district court Viechtach (Oberamt Viechtach , Amt Riedern, Mitteramt Böbrach , Amt Achslach and Amt Prackenbach ). The main teams Achslach, Allersdorf, Kogl, Haidenberg, Zachenberg , Tafertsried, Grün, Frath, Randsburg (formerly Wildenrandtsperg) and the Hofmark Lindenau belonged to the Achslach office . The bailiff had his seat in the electoral office. As one of the few places in the district, Achslach still had a patrimonial court in the 17th century with a bailiff as judge and an executioner. The field name Galgenwiesel at the exit to Gotteszell still testifies to this time.
Achslach belonged to the Straubing Rent Office and the Viechtach Regional Court of the Electorate of Bavaria . In the course of the administrative reforms in Bavaria , today's municipality was created with the municipal edict of 1818 . Achslachs was raised to parish in 1818.
Administrative community
In the course of the Bavarian regional reform , Achslach became a member of the Ruhmannsfelden administrative association on May 1, 1978 .
Naming
The place name changed from Drasloha in 1115 via Drahsala (1126), Drahsla (1310) and Achszlach (1431) to the current version Achslach , which was first mentioned in 1527.
The vernacular usage shows that Achslach is an old field name that describes the entire Au through which the Teisnach flows: in the Oxla means in the Achslach . At that time the Gotteszeller area was also counted as part of the Oxla . The dialect ( Oxla ) gives the forms with the palate ( x ) of 1126 and 1310 the predominance. The basic word is Ach (shortened to –a ) which means water, big brook . The qualifying expression must obviously at that font ahsal (1126), in the vernacular Oxl and today armpit loud. Achslach means the high Ache or the Hochau , as a valley through which water flows was usually referred to as Au. The reason for the beginning of the older name forms up to 1310 with Dr- is the drafting of the documents and other documents in the Latin language. The German in der Achslach in Latin, which doesn't know a gender word , became in drahsala , from Achslach to de drahsala .

coat of arms
Description : A silver wave bar in blue, two golden pilgrim sticks crossed at an angle at the top, covered with a silver pilgrim shell, and below a gold-reinforced silver ibex trunk.
The municipality was under the sovereignty of the Counts of Bogen until 1242 and then came with their inheritance to the House of Wittelsbach (court and caste office Viechtach). The colors silver and blue are reminiscent of this connection. The silver wave arch stands for the Achslach valley of the Teisnach . Shell and pilgrim sticks refer to the Achslach church patron St. Jakobus . The gold-reinforced silver ibex trunk represents the reduced coat of arms of the Ramsbergers, who were resident in the district of Randsburg as former ministerials of the Counts of Bogen .
