Frauenberg is a district and district of the independent city of Landshut . Until 1974 it formed an independent municipality.

location

The Kirchdorf Frauenberg is located about five kilometers northeast of Landshut and about two kilometers northwest of Adlkofen in the Isar-Inn hill country . The Frauenberg district extends far beyond that and includes the entire north-eastern area of ​​the city of Landshut. The districts of Frauenberg are Aubach, Auloh , Dirnau, Eisgrub, Entenau, Frauenberg, Gretlmühle, Neudeck, Reithof, Schaumburg, Stallwang, Sterneck, Wolfstein and Wolfsteinerau.

history

7000 year old finds from the Neolithic Age prove that the area around Frauenberg is an ancient settlement area. Numerous other soil monuments and surface finds document a long settlement history. These are, for example, stone tools, flint tools (flint), ceramics, metal slag (iron smelting) and smelting clay . Also tumuli are witnesses of past times.

According to tradition, St. Erhard was missionary here as a traveling bishop around 680/690 AD and laid the foundation for the Frauenberg pilgrimage site with the construction of a small church and the use of the “Erhardistein” as an altar plate. In 1204, the Bavarian Duke Ludwig the Kelheimer destroyed the “Strasbourg” of the Regensburg bishops and also the crossing over the Isar . Instead, Ludwig founded the city of Landshut seven kilometers upstream. With this Frauenberg lost its historical importance, but the church remained as a visible border point between the diocese of Regensburg and the diocese of Freising .

The oldest mention of the place comes from a document of the Seligenthal monastery from April 21, 1298. The oldest property, the Weinzierlhof, is mentioned in a document as early as 1411. Since Weinzierl means old Bavarian winegrower, it can be assumed that wine was grown here in the past. In fact, east of Frauenberg there is the field name Weinberg and even an old pictorial representation of the winery “near Landshut in Niederbayern”.

In 1568 the place F. Perg can be found in the Bavarian country tables . Belonging to the judicial district of Teisbach since the 14th century , Frauenberg fell to the Adlkofen office in 1752 . In the course of the creation of the Kingdom of Bavaria in 1806, the community of Frauenberg was also formed. In 1818 Frauenberg had 65 inhabitants.

The pilgrimage to Frauenberg began at the suggestion of the Dominicans out of gratitude at the end of the Thirty Years War. The pilgrimage received a new boost in 1854 when 55 women made a pilgrimage to the Frauenberg after the outbreak of cholera in Landshut and afterwards the number of cholera sufferers declined.

On December 16, 1919, the first public telephone intercom was set up in the Gasthaus Kargl, and on April 14, 1925, electricity came to Frauenberg with the approval to build a transformer station. The Schochkaserne northwest of the village was completed in 1936. On August 1, 1974, the municipality of Frauenberg was incorporated into the independent city of Landshut as part of the regional reform in Bavaria . The barracks were closed on September 30, 1994 and the site was designated as a nature reserve on October 26, 2001. In 2003 the Landshut Exhibition Park was opened.
