history
Prehistory and early history
Human settlement in and around Burgheim goes back to the early and prehistory of the Mesolithic Age . The discovery of a notched blade allows it to be dated to around 7000 BC. The exhibit is in the Burgheim Local History Museum and was found near Dezenacker, a part of the municipality of today's Burgheim market.
Four settlements in the districts of Dezenacker, Illdorf, Kunding and Wengen go back to the New Stone Age (Neolithic), the period from 5000 to 2300 BC. A shoe last wedge, the chisel of the time, was found in the Illdorf district of Burgheim and is now also in the local history museum. The wedge is made of amphibolite, so it is not a domestic material and probably a barter item. Sheep farming already prevailed and with it the extraction of sheep's wool, as shown by parts of a 6000 year old loom. Grain was grown and ground, and a stone mill is one of the other museum pieces in Burgheim. Pottery was also produced, and clay was common in the Burgheim area. Exhibited fragments of Neolithic pottery such as stitching ceramics or vessels from the Oberlautbacher Group were dated around 4,000 to 5,000 BC and are now in the Burgheim Local History Museum; the site was again Dezenacker.
The next epoch of human activity was the Bronze Age from 2200 to 800 BC. The main settlement in the area around Burgheim took place predominantly during the tumulus culture from 1600 to 1300 BC, the urn field culture from 1300 to 800 BC, but also in the early Bronze Age. Two Bronze Age settlements in the form of fortified defenses date from this time; probably also the ramparts at Felsenspitz near the Moos district.
The Hallstatt Period , a period of the older Iron Age, was from around 800 to 650 BC . A grave field between Biding, Ortlfing and Straß with around 200 graves with grave goods dates from this era . Ceramics made of black-colored clay were characteristic at this time, as the finds near Burgheim show. Burgheim in the period from the 7th to the 10th century is significant from today's archaeological point of view: With the so-called "Burgheimer Ware", which can be traced back to finds at the "Hitzipoint" in Burgheim in 1949, the place name Burgheim achieved national fame, known to every archeology student.
The later Roman name Parrodunum probably found its origin in the Celtic period (Latène period): a castle on the river Paar. Otherwise nothing is known from this period, no findings are available. Life at the time may have been concentrated in the Oppidum Manching, a huge Celtic settlement from around 300 BC.
The Roman fort Parrodunum was located in today's Burgheim on today's Kirchberg. The fortress had a size of about 0.4 hectares and housed the "Cohors I Herculae Reatorum". The important Danube bridge at Stepperg was presumably monitored and protected from the fort. Another fort was found during excavations about 500 meters east of the Kirchberg. The find situation is characterized by a wood and earth fort that housed auxiliary troops, presumably Syrian archers.
A Burgus near the so-called Mühlhartsfurt was probably in the context of the Roman Bridge and perhaps also served as a connection to today's Neuburg ad Donau, once Venaxamodurum. It can be assumed that the area around Parrodunum was used for regional food production for the troops stationed north of the Danube. For example, in the nearby Wengen district, a main building of a Roman Villa Rustica from the 2nd century AD is documented by aerial archaeological evidence.
Until the church is planted
Burgheim was first mentioned in a document in 1093. Around 1100 the Counts of Lechsgemünd built a castle on the church hill. Presumably in the 11th century the place received market rights . Burgheim was first referred to as a market in 1326 . In 1505 it fell to the Young Palatinate and became Protestant from 1542 to 1617. Since 1685 the place belonged to Electoral Palatinate and in 1778 to Pfalz-Baiern . In 1818 today's political community was established.
20th century
The community was partially destroyed in World War II and occupied by the Americans on April 27, 1945 .
