history

Froschau a Hofmark with headquarters in Finsterweiling, was under the Old Kingdom high court the Duke of Bavaria Pflegamt Velburg . The Hofmark, a fiefdom of the Electorate of the Palatinate since the 16th century, belonged to the Pollingers until the middle of the 16th century ; In 1426 Ulrich Pöllinger zu Froschau is mentioned for the first time. In 1552 they sold their country estate to Hans Adam Wisbeck zu Velburg, in 1574 the seat was inherited by Hans Heinrich Nothaft, who sold it to Stephan Frey, civil secretary at Amberg, before 1582. In 1603 his son Sigmund Frey was allowed to take possession of the estate. At that time, Hofmark Froschau owned 1 estate in Batzhausen, 1 yard, 2 estates and the mill in Finsterweiling as a manorial and thus under court. The basically poor Hofmark remained in the possession of non-aristocrats until the 18th century. A sales process in the middle of the 18th century failed to find a buyer for a long time; It was not until 1755 that the Weitenauer acquired the Hofmark. At the end of the Old Kingdom , around 1800, they had 2 quarter courtyards (Hierl and Götz), 1 eighth courtyard and 1 mill. The moated castle Froschau still belonged to them around 1830; it came off.

In the Kingdom of Bavaria , the Oberweiling tax district was formed around 1810 , to which, in addition to Oberweiling, the settlements Finsterweiling , Froschau, Haumühle , Hollerstetten (there belonged a farm and an estate to the former Hofmark Froschau) and Reckenhofen belonged. With the community edict of May 15, 1818, it became the rural community of Oberweiling in the Parsberg district court, to which the rural community of Altenveldorf was affiliated in 1830 . Before 1900 the places Neumühle, Neuöd, Obermühle, Oberweiling, Regenfußmühle and Schallermühle were added. The children went to school in Oberweiling, where the teacher was both sacristan and organist.

• 1836 19 inhabitants (2 houses),

From 1925 onwards, the Froschau is no longer listed separately in the official register of localities in Bavaria, but is included in Finsterweiling. On January 1, 1972, the municipality of Oberweiling and thus also the district of Finsterweiling / Froschau were incorporated into the city of Velburg during the municipal reform.

Church conditions

From time immemorial, Froschau and Finsterweiling belonged to the parish of Oberweiling. This was subjected to the Reformation with Pfalz-Neuburg in 1548 and re-Catholicized in 1620 ; all subjects had to change faith, including the residents of Froschau. A Sacred Heart Chapel was built in Finsterweiling in 1892 by the green farmers. The Froschau seat is said to have already had a chapel.
