history

Eschertshofen is probably identical to the Aeschericheshofen documented around 981 (in the sense of "to the courts of Aescherich / Ascarich", from "asc" = ash, lance; according to another interpretation, the place name comes from the Esch stream). The Landgraves of Leuchtenberg owned fiefdoms here, which they passed on to noble families. In the 14th century the Schweppermen owned the Eschertshofen headquarters , then in the early 15th century when they bought the Loterbecken , and soon afterwards the Schweppermen again. The seat, which stood on a ridge, was destroyed in the Thirty Years War and not rebuilt. Further owners of the village were the Neumarkt citizen Heinrich der Hinterheinz, Messrs. Hözl von Ehrenfriedesdorf, the nobles von Leyzenbrunnen, Hanns Jakob Hund von und zu Wenkheim, Mayor Eder von Neumarkt and the Kerschensteiner. In 1598, Elector Friedrich expressly granted the city of Neumarkt the jurisdiction of lower jurisdiction over Eschertshofen. In 1599, Neumarkt parted with this property by selling it to Michael Löfen / Loefen, who was granted freedom from the electorate. The village was administered together with the Hofmark Heimhof, which in 1808 and thus also Eschertshofen, consisting of five estates and the shepherd's house, was drafted by the King of Bavaria. A sixth estate, a half courtyard, belonged to the Gnadenberg monastery judge until the end of the Old Kingdom .

In the Kingdom of Bavaria (1806), the Laaber tax district was formed around 1810 , to which Laaber himself and Giggling Eschertshofen belonged. With the second community edict of 1818, Eschertshofen came to the Dietkirchen community in the Kastl district court .
