history

Until 1297, Griffenwang belonged to Ulrich Lotter's Schauerstein Castle and was sold by him to the Regensburg Monastery. The parish of Griffenwang is listed in the Regensburg registers from 1438 as belonging to the Allersburg deanery . The place was under the Hochstiftischen, in the 15th century temporarily ducal-Bavarian office Hohenburg . The lower jurisdiction was transferred from the Hochstift to a curator. In the 16th century, the lords of Laaber owned the regensburg fiefdom in Griffenwang. The place with its ten properties remained until the end of the Old Kingdom , around 1800/10, high estates or cathedral capital (three properties).

The tax district Griffenwang was formed by the Kingdom of Bavaria (1806) around 1810 and given to the Parsberg district court in 1811 . This included the villages of Griffenwang and Kittensee as well as the desert areas of Aderstall , Neudiesenhof , Oberkeitenthal , Schauerstein and Unterkeitenthal . With the second Bavarian community edict of 1818 it became a rural community . In the course of the formation of a military training area for US and NATO troops, the municipality, which in the meantime belonged to the Parsberg district, was 1083.39 hectares in size with the six towns of Aderstall, Griffenwang, Kittensse, Oberkeitenthal, Schauerstein and Unterkeitenthal by October 1, 1951 evacuated and their residents relocated. The Neudiesenhof district of Griffenwang was assigned to the Reichertswinn community on March 25, 1952 . The still formally existing community of Griffenwang was incorporated into Velburg on October 1, 1970. The community name was canceled.
