history

Until the church is planted

According to a document dating from 748, there was a baptismal site on the Isar in the original parish of Eching. A wooden baptistery is said to have been built at this point, which was later replaced by a Gothic parish church. The place name is based on the personal name Echo, which is derived from the affiliation suffix -ing.

The area of ​​the city of Landshut, founded in 1204, belonged to the parish of Eching for centuries . The originally Gothic parish church fell victim to a flood of the Isar in 1702. Today's baroque church was built between 1709 and 1711, and in 1891 the grave chapel of the von Preysing-Lichtenegg-Moos family was attached.
