Erlingshofen is a district of the Kinding market in the Anlautertal , Eichstätt district ( Bavaria ).

history

Stone tools from the Middle Stone Age (7,000 BC) as well as shards of vessels, a sword handle and a lance tip from the Bronze Age were found in the corridor of Erlingshofen . On the Kirchberg east of the village, burial mounds and a section wall from the Hallstatt period are proven. Other finds can be assigned to the Urnfield Period and the La Tène Period .

From 1159 to approx. 1495 local nobility are named in documents; some of the lords of Erlingshofen / Erlungshofen were canons in Eichstätt . Until 1169 the Lords of Arnsberg - Heideck also named themselves after Erlingshofen. In the 13th century the place came into the possession of the Counts of Hirschberg . The village later belonged to the Bavarian rule of Arnsberg and was illegally sold to the von Geyern taverns in 1413 by the Frauenhofers, the pledge holders of Arnsberg . Five years later they had to cede their new acquisition to Bavaria. In 1481 the Bishop of Eichstätt Wilhelm von Reichenau took Erlingshofen into his possession. In 1550 the parish became a branch of Altdorf ; two years later, Hessian troops looted the church. The place remained with the Hochstift until the secularization of 1803/06 and then became royal Bavarian . From 1817 to 1883 the place belonged to the principality of the Duke of Leuchtenberg . Then the place became Bavarian again. From 1963 to 1966 land consolidation was carried out. Shortly afterwards, Erlingshofen decided to dissolve it as an independent municipality and join Kinding on April 1, 1971, as part of the regional reform .

The place has been a state-approved resort since 1992 . The Anlautertal cycle path leads through it.
