history

A first documentary mention of "Eylungsdorf" (village of Eylung / Agilung or Egilolf) comes from the early 14th century: In 1305 the place was in the dispute over the Hirschberg inheritance after the extinction of the Counts of Hirschberg with Count Gebhard VII Hochstift Eichstätt awarded. This was given by the farms as a fief. Fief recipients included Leonhard Attenfelder zu Kirchanhausen (two fiefdoms in 1384), the Baiersdorfer (1446–1469) and the Töging taverns (probably only Feldlehen). A description of the property from 1644 mentions a lot of peasant ownership in addition to the noblemen's fief. The school in Beilngries and the town clerk there are also landowners in Eglofsdorf at this time. According to this description, donations from various farms went to the church in Amtmannsdorf , to the church in Ottmaring (today part of Dietfurt an der Altmühl), to the parish of Kottingwörth and to the parish of Dietfurt an der Altmühl . Two Beilngries citizens had an estate in the village; four Eglofsdorfer farmers (Endres Schauer, Hans Kluy, Michael Dinkner and Georg Beck) also owned a large amount of property, which they had probably bought from the nobility. At the end of the 18th century there were around 20 households in the village that belonged to Ehehaft Kottingwörth. Until the establishment of the Paulushofen parish in 1792, Eglofsdorf belonged to the original parish of Kottingwörth.

In the course of secularization , the lower bishopric, to which Eglofsdorf also belonged, came to Grand Duke Archduke Ferdinand III in 1802 . from Tuscany and 1806 to the Kingdom of Bavaria . From 1810, the independent municipality Eglofsdorf belonged to the Upper Danube district with the capital Eichstatt, from 1817 to regenkreis and capital Regensburg. From 1838 the district of Beilngries and with it Eglofsdorf belonged to the district of Middle Franconia with the capital Ansbach.

From 1960 to 1964 land consolidation was carried out. With the Bavarian territorial reform , the place joined the city of Beilngries on January 1, 1972. In 1983 there were 22 farms with 109 inhabitants.

Catholic Church of St. Martin

The church of St. Martin was rebuilt in the 17th century using the Romanesque tower of a medieval predecessor church. The tower in the east of the church looks comparatively squat; Between two stepped gables there is a gable roof on which a cross is formed from glazed bricks. One bell was cast in 1706 and two more in 1957. In the choir there is a post-Romanesque cross vault , while the nave has a flat ceiling (ceiling painting from 1954 by Michael Weingartner from Pfaffenhofen an der Ilm, showing Maria as Queen of Heaven with the Eichstatt diocesan saints Willibald and Walburga ). In the choir there is a two-column altar from 1700 to 1720 with an altarpiece from 1909 by Franz Hartmann , Munich , in the Nazarene style , which shows the church patron in Roman armor and donating a cloak. The tabernacle is designed in the neo-coco style, the baroque predecessor is in the sacristy . In the nave, to the right of the choir, there is a Gothic wooden crescent Madonna (around 1500). Opposite on the left, St. Martin with a beggar his cloak (wooden figure from the end of the 15th century). The Way of the Cross (oil on canvas) was created in the Rococo (1780–1799). Other wooden figures in the nave are baroque or rococo. - To the south of the church there was a 17th or 18th century chapel called Martin's Chapel. Hofmann / Mager says: “The church with the soul chapel in the foreground, surrounded by fruit trees, offers a very picturesque picture.” (P. 62) From 1925 to 1969 there was a church built by Maximilian Bittner from Hilpoltstein and taken over by Kirchbuch Organ , which has been renovated since 2011, can be heard in the Ingolstadt hospital church.
