history

Ortlfing Church

Ortlfing was first mentioned in the Pappenheimer Urbar in 1214. Even at that time there is said to have been a church. Between 1638 and 1647 Ortlfing was hit hard by the Swedes during the Thirty Years War. A particularly large number of deaths are listed during this period. There are also deserted courtyards. In 1655 many fields were still fallow.

The Spanish War of Succession hit the place again considerably in 1704. There is robbery, murder and plunder. The grain is mowed and the village is half burned. From 1742 to 1745 there was again a state of war, it is the War of the Austrian Succession . Devastation is taking place again. This time the French live in the area, but behave modestly, they only take what they need to eat. Only the pastor's best horse is stolen. But in 1800 and 1801 the French return five times and loot the village.

In 1945, during the last days of the war, Ortlfing was heavily shelled when crossing the Danube. The church was badly damaged.

On January 1, 1972, the independent municipality of Ortlfing with its district Biding was incorporated into the Burgheim market.

school

Little is known about the origins of the school in Ortlfing. The Neuburger Kollektaneenblatt from 1858 writes that the school was rebuilt in 1851. Now the children from Ortlfing and Biding attend school here. Before that, the students had to trip to Burgheim after the former teacher Strohmair died.

The school was also badly damaged by the bombardment in the last days of the war in 1945, so that a new building was necessary. With the municipal reform, not only was the municipal administration relocated to Burgheim, the school had to be closed, and buses have been taking students to Burgheim ever since.

history

The current church tower, its predecessor has collapsed

A sacred building was mentioned in the Pappenheimer Urbar in 1214.

In 1542 Neuburg Count Palatine Ottheinrich switched to the Protestant religion. This state remained until 1614. Pastor Johannes Lyß describes the situation: "The pastor no longer has an apartment, just a small, narrow room and inside a nasty stove that has to be set again." that it bends out and wants to collapse. ”And a few years later it is said that the roofing on the rectory is worthless. It is raining down into the house and into the chamber. In 1602, damage to the church had to be repaired. In 1658 the church tower collapsed and damaged the choir of the church considerably. In 1670 Pastor Stendel was installed. 13 years after the collapse, on March 31, 1671, the pastor laid the first stone for the church tower for the parish of St. Stephen.

Pastor Josef Heyleth resided from 1728. In 1735 the tower wall was increased by the octagon and the onion dome. This look still characterizes the tower today. The clergyman bequeathed the impressive sum of 6184 guilders to the parish of Ortlfing for the construction of a new church. He also donated 200 guilders for the small church in Biding, which belongs to the parish, and had the legacy confirmed by the Ordinariate in Augsburg. The building materials such as wood, stone and lime were already stored in front of the church in Ortlfing, when Heyleth died on February 1, 1759. As a result, the building project came to a standstill and the building material disappeared. In the same year Johann Matthias Häberle from Neuburg took over the parish of Ortlfing. He visited various churches with the pastor Anton Nissl from Burgheim. The model and rift of the Sinningen church became the model. The building was handed over to the architect and Neuburg court and town builder Martin Puchtler. Anton Engel from neighboring Wengen was commissioned as master carpenter and Joseph Köpf as plasterer. The demolition of the old church began on April 14, 1760, and the foundation stone was laid on April 21, 1760. On September 24, 1760, the auxiliary bishop Xaver von Adelmann consecrated the new church. Two memorial plaques today commemorate the well-deserved pastors Heyleth and Häberle.

Personalities

Franz Anton Neuhauser

The Jesuit priest worked here for more than forty years. His reputation went far beyond the borders of the town and the country, which is why he was venerated here too.

On Christmas Day 1744, Franz Anton Neuhauser was born in Siegenburg near Kelheim as the 6th child of the merchant Anton Oswald Neuhauser, who came from Venice. The mother Maria Katharina, née Plenin, came from Pöttmes . Neuhauser studied in Augsburg in 1761/62 and then studied "Rhetoric". Here he got the top grade and thus first place. It was his wish to enter the Jesuit order. He made the novitiate from 1761 to 1764 in Landsberg am Lech . He studied from 1766 to 1769 at the University of Ingolstadt . In 1769 he found a job as a professor at the Munich grammar school. His first publication appeared in 1770 with the topic: "The beginnings of the Greek language for the use of the schools of the Society of Jesus". In 1771 an addition was made.

After the Jesuit order was banned by Pope Clement XIV in 1773 , Neuhauser found a job as a high school professor in Ingolstadt. In 1779 a sermon competition was announced. The later Bishop Johann Michael Sailer won the gold and Neuhauser the silver medal. In the same year Neuhauser published the text and raised the warning finger with it: "Of the lovelessness against our opponents of faith".

Because of his frank words, the former Jesuit priest was banned from teaching in 1783. Neuhauser went to the imperial count of Pappenheim, who was governor of Ingolstadt and Neuburg , as court master and prince educator .

In 1788 Neuhauser became pastor of Königstein near Sulzbach. In 1789 he moved to the parish of Ortlfing near Burgheim and stayed there until 1833. In 1831 Neuhauser was to be awarded the Order of Ludwig on the basis of his services . But King Ludwig I refused. Neuhauser had distributed a pamphlet on the subject of “The disproportionate taxation of the Catholic clergy in Bavaria”. At the age of 89, Neuhauser gave up and came to the monastery of the Barmherzigen Brüder in Neuburg an der Donau . He died on October 24, 1834.

Neuhauser was highly valued by the clergy. A street is named after him.
