Place view

The wasteland lies on the northern flank of a long slope leading down into the Danube valley , which is one of the last foothills of the Jura hilly landscape that ends here . The Danube breakthrough at Weltenburg is 2 km north. Regensburg is about 35 km to the northeast, Ingolstadt 40 km to the west. Munich is about 95 km south of the town.

history

Around 100 well-preserved burial mounds from the Middle Bronze Age and the Hallstatt Age were found in the vicinity of the wasteland, which was part of the parish hall of Holzharlanden . With the help of aerial archeology , it was also possible to determine the layout of a Roman manor near Buchhof .

The wasteland first appeared in documents around 731. Towards the end of the 9th century a nobleman named Winicho was known as the owner, who sold the estate to Bishop Ambricho of Regensburg (864-891), which meant that it remained in the possession of the Regensburg Monastery for over 3 centuries.

Over the centuries Gut Buchhof has repeatedly been owned by Weltenburg Abbey . Abbot Herwig (1294–1323) acquired the property for the monastery for the first time. In 1587 it was sold again. After it was largely destroyed in the Thirty Years' War , it was repurchased by the monastery for 50 guilders and restored by Abbot Mathias Abelin (1626–1659). In the course of secularization , the property was auctioned on May 28, 1804 and acquired by a Plank family. In 1914 the former monastery property was sold. Taking advantage of the opportunity, Abbot Maurus Weingart (1913–1923) acquired this old property of the Weltenburg monks back for the monastery.

Economy and Infrastructure

The “Weltenburger Vinothek” restaurant is currently operated on the estate. The extensive real estate with an area of ​​approx. 200 hectares is no longer managed by the Weltenburg monastery itself, but leased.
