geography

The village is located in the midst of orchards in the Altmühltal in the southern Franconian Jura , about 4 km northwest of Treuchtlingen. The main part is located on a south-facing slope around the Bubenheimer Berg , also known as the "High Stone", on which 15 million year old types of rock from the Ries ejection (meteorite impact) can be found. The resting place of Vielsteine ​​(476 m above sea level) offers a wide panoramic view. The southwestern border forms the Altmühl , into which the Rohrach flows at the western end of the village. Not far to the east is the hamlet of Hagenau , on the other side of the Altmühl there is Zollmühle , Ziegelmühle and Wettelsheim .

Probably originated in the 7th or 8th century, Bubenheim is first mentioned in the 8th century: In the year 792 or 793 Charlemagne visited the Pubnhaim (= "to the home of Buobo") on the occasion of the construction of the fossa Carolina . In the 13th century the Counts of Graisbach were wealthy there, later among others the Margraves of Brandenburg-Ansbach and the Prince-Bishops of Eichstätt .
