history

In the area between ore houses , wind maize, Buch, Pingarten and Taxöldern , iron ore was mined in the Middle Ages. Around 1140, burgrave Otto I von Riedenburg founded a house of the Babones in Walderbach, one of the Mother of God and St. Augustinian canons consecrated to Nicholas as a house monastery and family burial place. The monastery was first mentioned in 1143 when it was converted into a Cistercian monastery and thus occupied by the Waldsassen monastery . In 1249, Buch belonged to the Walderbach Monastery , as evidenced by a letter of consensus from Pope Innocent IV. The letter confirmed rights and possessions in “Buch, Berg, Warmisdorf, Hovin (Höfen) and Alberinruth ”. In 1363 the Murach judge Ruger Warperger sold his village "zu Pueche" (book) to the Reichenbach monastery . In 1693 ore mining began in Buch.

Ore mining

In the area between Erzhäuser , Windmais, Buch, Pingarten and Taxöldern , iron ore was mined in the Middle Ages . In 1685, Johann Schreyer received the mining rights in Buch to mine iron ore. The iron ore-bearing layer was 0.5 meters to about 3 meters thick. The Bucher system was about 1.7 kilometers long. The manhole can still be seen half a kilometer south of Buch. The tunnels reached a depth of up to 60 meters. The iron ore from Buch was brought to the iron and steel works in Bodenwöhr by horse and cart for further processing. Around 1800 about ten people were working in the mining industry, around five decades later there were 50 miners. The ore mining ended in 1882 because the blast furnace operation in Bodenwöhr was stopped. New drilling in 1938 at Windmais and at the Pechmühle did not bring any success.

Church history

The church visit protocol from the years 1582/83 lists Buch among other places under the Penting parish.

Tax district

At the beginning of the 19th century, Blechhammer, Buch, Windmais and Erzhäuser belonged to the Buch tax district. The Kingdom of Bavaria was divided into 15 districts in 1808. These districts were named after rivers based on the French model ( Naabkreis , Regenkreis , Unterdonaukreis , etc.). The districts were divided into district courts. The district court district Neunburg vorm Wald had 55 tax districts, including Buch with 6 properties. Erzhäuser, Windmais and Blechhammer belonged to the Buch tax district.

Community membership

The district courts should in turn be divided into individual municipality areas. In 1820/21 the community of Windmais was established with 20 families. This included Buch with 6 families and Pechmühle with one family. In 1830 the municipality of Windmais was dissolved and attached to the municipality of Erzhäuser. On May 1, 1978, the municipality of Erzhäuser with Buch and parts of the area of ​​the dissolved municipality of Altenschwand was incorporated into Bodenwöhr.
