history

Until the church is planted

Rococo Church of St. Peter (1747–1749)
South front of the parish church of St. Peter

Tapfheim was first mentioned in a document between 750 and 800 on the occasion of gifts of goods to the Fulda monastery . The place was the seat of a lower nobility, the Lords of Tapfheim, which is attested from 1067 to 1401. The Augsburg bourgeois family Küchenmeister ("kitchen master of Tapfheim"), mentioned in a document in the second half of the 14th century, was linked to Tapfheim by special rights. Their coat of arms (unicorn body) was adopted in the seal of the Tapfheim court in the first half of the 16th century. After the Hofmark Tapfheim belonged to the Lords of Waldkirch towards the end of the 14th century , it was assigned to the newly founded Principality of Pfalz-Neuburg in 1505 . The Bavarian dukes and the princes of Pfalz-Neuburg appointed bailiffs as their administrators, who officiated in the Tapfheimer Schloss. There were close ecclesiastical relationships with the Cistercian monastery in Kaisheim between 1269 and 1803.
