Territorial development and incorporations

  • 1251

City foundation (Upper City) by Duke Otto II. Above the existing settlement of Dingolfing (around the Church of St. John) of the Bishop of Regensburg, through a military act

  • 1265

Due to a contract between the Duke of Bavaria and the Bishop of Regensburg , both settlements were merged into one city. The union of the two settlements into one city was symbolized with two stars in the Dingolfing coat of arms.

  • 1330

Integration of suburban fishery and the area left of the Isar with the villages ( Schwaigen ) Goben, hell, Geratsberg and Sossau in the truce by Duke Henry XIV. Of Bavaria . A third star was added to the coat of arms accordingly.

  • 1946

The urban area remained essentially unchanged until January 1, 1946, when the Grüblhof, until then part of the Loiching community , was incorporated by order of the American military government (including the grate mill, which is also known as Mosermühle after the current owner)

  • 1972

The former Teisbach market was incorporated on January 1, 1972, including the districts of Höfen (the so-called "Teisbach Enclave") on the left of the Isar and the districts of Höfen , Gaubitzhausen and Schönbühl that were reclassified from Loiching to Teisbach in 1946 .

The greater part of the former community of Frauenbiburg , with around 90 percent of the population, was also incorporated on January 1, 1972, with the northern districts: Frauenbiburg, Brunn , Einöd, Kaltenberg, Mietzing, Oberbubach, Oberdingolfing, Oberholzhausen, Öd, Schermau , Unterbubach , Unterholzhausen and Weinpreß (the southern districts were incorporated into the community of Marklkofen ).

As a result of the incorporations in 1972, the urban area increased from 1,800.61 to 4,249.96 hectares. The incorporated market Teisbach had 914.57 hectares. Of the 2,306.71 hectares of the community of Frauenbiburg, 1,534.78 hectares were incorporated into Dingolfing (and the rest to Marklkofen).

  • 1979

The last change in territorial status took place on July 1, 1979, when the districts of Achatzstall and Neuhausen, which were incorporated from the dissolved community of Frauenbiburg to Marklkofen in 1972, came to the town of Dingolfing at the request of the population. The urban area increased from 4250 to 4405 hectares. These two parts of the community cannot be reached under the prefix 08731 like the rest of the city , but under 08732, such as Frontenhausen and Marklkofen.

City layout

Historical view of the town of Dingolfing from the 1st half of the 19th century. From the left u. a. the high bridge, the upper city, the city wall that was still in existence at the time, the lower city with the parish church of St. John on the right edge of the picture

Dingolfing has a remarkable urban layout: the actual core city with the Marienplatz (formerly: Wollerzeile), the square-like Bruckstraße and the former craftsmen's row Lederergasse as well as the parish church of St. Johannes is dominated by an upper town, which is located on an elevation that faces three directions falls off. Both parts of the city are separated by their only historical connection, the Steinweg, by an inner-city gate, the Reiserbogen. In this dichotomy, one can see a double foundation: While the Wittelsbach dukes gained a foothold in the upper town, the Bishop of Regensburg tried to assert himself in the lower town before the Wittelsbachers pushed the bishop out of the town in the 13th century in the course of their regional expansion united the whole city in their hands.

Hydrology

The Isar flows through the city from west to east and the city is through the western part since 1957 hydropower plant in Dingolfing to dam Dingolfing dammed. In addition to economic use, this area also serves as a recreational area and as a breeding ground for many water bird species. A renatured section of the Isar Dingolfing was officially opened on May 6, 2018. Other rivers are the Teisbach , which flows through the district of the same name , the Asenbach , the Längenmühlbach to the left of the Isar, and the Stadtmühlbach , which flows parallel to the Isar and partially piped through the city center. There he describes the former course of the Isar before regulation. At the level of the "Fischerei", the Stadtmühlbach is routed under the Asenbach in the form of a culvert . This city stream is diverted to the right from the drainage ditch directly at the inlet structure into the Isar below the Dingolfing hydropower station .

history

historiography

Memorial plaque in the Upper City for Josef Wolfgang Eberl , high school professor in Freising for canon law , church history and patrology . The blackboard incorrectly describes him as a professor of " pathology ".

The oldest comprehensive account of the history of the city of Dingolfing comes from the pen of high school professor and theologian Josef Wolfgang Eberl . Eberl's work coincides with the emergence of a modern historical-critical historical science and is therefore today a testament to the historical perspective in the middle of the 19th century. As a valid representation, it must be considered obsolete, even though Eberl's epigraphic notes in particular are of lasting value. Basically, the city has not found an overall historical representation since Eberl. Markmiller's extensive book refers primarily to the building history of the city, although here essential aspects of the general history are presented on the exact evaluation of the building findings and written sources.

Most of the detailed work was published in the regional magazine “Der Storchenturm”. A more recent overarching overall presentation including social and economic historical aspects is pending.

Historical summary

Memorial in the Upper City for those who fell in the Franco-Prussian War 1870/71 from the district of Dingolfing

Dingolfing celebrated the 750th anniversary of the city's foundation in 2001 , although the settlement is much older. Neolithic settlements inside and outside the old town are proven. In the 8th century, church synods were held in Dingolfing at the time of the Agilofing Duchy . On the occasion of such a meeting under Duke Tassilo III. Dingolfing is first mentioned in 770 as Thingolfinga . The first documentary mention was made on May 27, 833 in a diploma from Ludwig the German for the monastery of Sankt Emmeram in Regensburg , in which Ludwig confirmed to Bishop Baturich that he owned a church and six servants in the area of ​​the Fiscus of Dingolfing ( Tinguluinga ). For the year 932 a synod is documented that King Henry I . had planned to survive in the defensive battle against the Hungarians. The castle also dates from this time and was then rebuilt for their purposes by the Bavarian dukes from 1410 onwards.

In 1274, Dingolfing was granted city rights. The original town charter has been lost since the town fire of 1743, but there is a multiple copy tradition.

After the third division of the Bavarian state , Dingolfing first belonged to the Straubing partial duchy and at the end of 1425 fell to the Bayern-Ingolstadt line . With their extinction again (1447), Dingolfing came under the rule of the so-called "rich dukes" of Bavaria-Landshut and remained there until this line of the Wittelsbach family also died out in 1503 with Georg von Landshut in the male line. The Landshut War of Succession secured the majority of the Landshut legacy for the Munich line of the Wittelsbach family, including Dingolfing, which thus belonged to the now reunited all-Bavarian duchy . During the late Middle Ages, especially when it belonged to the Landshut sub-duchy, the city experienced a period of economic prosperity, as the stately church of St. Johannes (foundation stone laid in 1467) bears witness to. After the economic decline in the 17th century and a Swedish occupation and looting during the Thirty Years War , the War of the Austrian Succession brought a catastrophe to the city in 1743. In the course of fighting between enemy Austrian troops on the one hand and the allied French on the other, large parts of the city went up in flames. The city was only able to recover very slowly from this blow and sank into largely insignificance. The city ​​survived the Second World War without damage. Only the bridge over the Isar was blown up by the withdrawing Wehrmacht .

A memorial stone commemorated seven shot or slain Jewish concentration camp prisoners on a death march at the end of the Second World War, who were found between Dingolfing and Unterbubach and were buried in the municipal cemetery . The dead were transferred to the Flossenbürg cemetery of honor in 1958 .

Industrialization in the second half of the 20th century, which in Dingolfing is associated with the names of the companies Hans Glas GmbH and BMW, as well as the influx of numerous expellees, brought the city a new upswing. Since the opening of the Technology and Innovation Center PuLS at the Landshut University of Applied Sciences in April 2016, Dingolfing has been a university location.

Attractions

Parish Church of St. John

Stadtpfarrkirche St. Johannes , choir vault
Baroque Karner at the Trinity Chapel

The most important building and landmark of the city is the three-aisled late Gothic hall church St. Johannes , which can be assigned to the Landshut building school. According to a building inscription, construction began in 1467. The vault decision was made in 1502. The tower was raised by two storeys in 1634 and 1688 and now reaches 84 meters. In 1868 the baroque onion dome of the tower was replaced by a pointed helmet. The interior decoration and the stained glass are mostly from the phase of the regotization of the church during the late 19th century. A larger than life late medieval crucifix that is hanging in the crossing vault ("Colossal Lord God of Dingolfing", early 16th century) and late medieval sculptures of the Church patrons John the Evangelist and John the Baptist. An original glass painting from the late Middle Ages has also been preserved in the north near the choir. The associated rectory is a stately baroque building from 1729 with a hipped roof. In the area of ​​the parish church is the late medieval Trinity or Schuster's Chapel, to which a baroque charnel house was added in the west .

St. Joseph Church

Of scarcely less importance than the high bauhistorischer Church of St. John is also known as Saalkirche scale Catholic parish of St. Joseph in the district of hell, left the Isar. The exposed brick building is the last major work of the important Munich architect Robert Vorhoelzer , who, as a representative of the local postal building school , can be counted among the important architects of classical modernism; the building was erected posthumously in 1954–1956. The church has its counterpart in Munich-Giesing in the parish church of Maria, Queen of Peace . Vorhoelzer developed the motifs of this building for St. Josef. Among the pieces of equipment, a Madonna figure from 1628 from the Obermünster collegiate church in Regensburg, which went under in 1945, is worth mentioning.

Church of the Redeemer

The Evangelical Church of the Redeemer by Gustav Gsaenger , which was opened in 1960, is a remarkable building with exposed quarry stone masonry made of Bavarian forest granite. The church is accentuated by a large west rosette made of concrete filigree, a glass painting in the choir window and a campanile-like tower.

Flagellation of Christ Church

The Flagellation Christ Church in the south of the city is a small Baroque pilgrimage church that the Dingolfing master builder Matthias Weigenthaler created in 1753. In the immediate vicinity there was a Franciscan branch with an associated monastery church, which was built in the neo-Gothic style from 1853 to 1867. Since 1975 there has been a new building in the same place as a monastery of the Poor Clares, who were originally located in Regensburg. In the district of Brunn is the small Gothic branch church of St. Giles, the core of which is dated to the 14th century.

Herzogburg and Grain Chest with the Dingolfing Museum

Entrance area of ​​the Dingolfing Museum

The Herzogsburg, a former ducal-Bavarian administrative building from the time of the rich dukes of the Landshut sub-duchy, is today the core of a museum quarter, which consists of three parts. It is considered one of the most important secular buildings of the late Gothic in Lower Bavaria. It was renovated between 1957 and 1959 and initially housed a museum with objects on prehistory and early history, the history of the city from the 16th to the 20th centuries, and the history of crafts from the 16th to the 20th centuries, furniture, clothing. Tools and implements for rural work and general contemporary history. Including a special collection: pictures and symbols of popular piety. The wedding room for civil weddings is located on the ground floor. The top floor houses a large event hall with a gallery. Concerts and exhibitions take place here. The historicizing facade painting, which was applied to the previously visible brick masonry in the course of the renovation, is a free reproduction without a historical template and is not undisputed. In 2008 the museum quarter was supplemented by an industrial museum, which is mainly housed in the grain box adjoining to the south. Since then, the Stinker Tower can also be accessed from the grain box via a steel bridge. The third part in the west houses the museum shop and a terrace bar.

High bridge

High bridge from the south

The high bridge is a high brick bridge built on five bays, which was completed in 1612. The Bavarian Duke and later Elector Maximilian I had funded the building through a city tax estate. The structure bridges the Asenbach and represents one of the three approaches to the Upper City.

Caprima

The Caprima is the only bath in town. It is divided into an indoor pool and an outdoor area. It has about 5 large swimming pools, 2 children's pools and "all temperatures from 0 to 95 degrees" ( Konrad Ritzinger ), a sauna and two slides. The outdoor area is designed in a Mediterranean style and also offers a large lawn and 2 diving boards.

Teisbach

The district of Teisbach was an independent market until it was incorporated into Dingolfing. The Teisbach parish church of St. Vitus is a building from 1849, which refers to the model of the large Munich buildings of the Friedrich von Gärtner era with its uniform historicizing equipment and painting and its consistent design in the arched style . In addition, the market gate, which the Dingolfing master builder Georg Weigenthaler built in 1718, is a landmark of the former market. As a facade decoration, it bears an extract from the ducal Bavarian market privilege for Teisbach from 1533 as well as the ducal Bavarian and Teisbach coats of arms. Teisbach Castle, which is located on a mountain spur above the Isar valley, dates from the 14th century. It was largely rebuilt in the 16th century and remodeled in a neo-Gothic style in the 19th century . The city acquired the property from private ownership in 2013. A usage concept has not yet been determined. The oldest building in Teisbach is the Mädlhaus. This building is dated to 1555 and was empty for years. After being acquired by the city of Dingolfing, it will be renovated in 2018 to meet the requirements of historical monuments and will be used for residential purposes.

The cityscape has been changed since the late 19th century with the demolition of the city gates (with the exception of the Wollertor), the extensive removal of the city walls and inner-city building demolitions, so that today essentially only the floor plan reminds of the medieval origins of the city. Numerous inner-city construction measures over the past decades did the rest. The construction of a road tunnel in the Upper City led to a clear and irreversible disruption of the historical topography in the northeast area of ​​the Upper City / Steinweg. The preservation of three historic craftsmen's houses in the Lederergasse was the result of protracted, controversial and sometimes polemical debates, after the demolition seemed to have already been decided.
