geography
Asch is located about two kilometers west of the Lech on a wide gravel terrace that is bordered by an old moraine in the east.
history
The first mention of the place dates back to 1126, when the Counts of Ronsberg from Irsee loaned properties in Asch. In 1401 Asch passed to the Lords of Freyberg , who bequeathed the property to the Augsburg monastery of St. Stephan in 1636 and 1740 .
Since the Reichsdeputationshauptschluss and the secularization of 1803, the entire area of the current municipality of Fuchstal has belonged to Bavaria, until the regional reform, Asch belonged to the Bavarian administrative district of Swabia .
Today's municipality of Fuchstal was created in 1972 as part of the regional reform from the merger of the municipalities of Asch, Markt Leeder and Seestall. In 1978 the communities of Fuchstal and Unterdießen merged to form the Fuchstal administrative community .
