history

Until the church is planted

From the Neolithic there are sites in Hofstetten and Mühlreit in the municipality of Eging. However, no settlement remains were discovered from the following millennia.

In the early Middle Ages , the area of ​​today's municipality Eging belonged to the so-called Nordwald, the forest north of the Danube , today's Bavarian Forest . This was the royal forest, on which farmers willing to settle, probably from the already inhabited south and west, could settle as "royal people". This happened mainly in the area of ​​today's communities Eging, Fürstenstein , Aicha vorm Wald , Tittling , Witzmannsberg and Neukirchen vorm Wald . In Oberpolling , the royal tax was entered in the land register on a property until the 19th century.

A man named Egino cleared the forest around the turn of the millennium and founded Eging. "Egning", as it was called back then, translates as "with the people of Egino".

By 1300 Eging was documented for the first time in a ducal Urbar as property of the Bishopric of Bamberg listed as 78 other so-called Babenberger goods.

In the 16th century the " Gulden Straß " ran through the town of Eging; a Bavarian competition to the Passauer Goldene Steigen , a Salzsäumerstraße , which was soon closed again.

In 1623 and 1633, during the Thirty Years' War , Swedes plundered Eging and Fürstenstein . In the years 1627, 1627 and 1648/1649 here that raged plague . During the Austrian War of Succession , the Pandours looted Eging in 1742.

A landlord that was important for centuries, the Bamberg Monastery of Altenmarkt , was abolished in 1784. The Electress Maria Anna acquired the goods and set up the St. Anna women's monastery . North of the Danube, the former goods of the monastery were combined in the Hofmark Ranfels . In 1803 secularization followed in Bavaria . In 1806, the Englfing / Schöllnach area in the west to the Ilz in the east was assigned to the Passau district court . The formation of the political communities took place with the 2nd community edict of 1818 . Since then, the communities of Eging in the Passau Regional Court have included the places Albersdorf, Alzenhof, lower Einzendoblmühle, Gaisruck, Gaisruckmühle, Harmering, Kollmering, Kroissenhof, Kroißenmühle, Loipfering, Obereging, Otting, Passerting, Preinting, Ritzging, Ruberting and Untereging.

19th century

In 1879 the community was assigned to the Vilshofen district court at its own request . In 1899 the villages of Märzing, Hörmannsdorf and Rohrbach came from the community of Aussernzell to the community of Eging.

20th century

The establishment of the Deggendorf-Eging-Kalteneck railway in 1913/1914 was extremely important for the development of the town . But the soldiers had to take the First World War on the first train .

On February 3, 1944, a Junkers Ju 88 with the identification GC + UP crashed in Eging by a lightning strike. After the repair was completed, the aircraft was to be transferred to a flight school in Dessau. At the end of the Second World War , a Volkssturm was set up to defend itself against the Americans, but after the SS withdrew, the village was handed over in good time without a fight. A concentration camp cemetery was set up in Eging for victims of the evacuation train from the Buchenwald concentration camp in Nammering , where 170 unknown concentration camp victims of this death march are buried, according to the memorial plaque .

In 1953 Eging was raised to the market . In 1956 the four localities of Obereging, Untereging, Albersdorf and Preinting were combined to form Eging. On March 17, 1978, the place name was expanded to include "a.See". In 1997 it was recognized as a climatic health resort .
