history

The place name can be interpreted as a clan settlement of a Gundolt; the settlement probably took place in Carolingian times by Frankish colonizers. The Schottenkloster St. Jakob in Regensburg later owned this place, probably as a gift from the Burgraves of Regensburg (which died out around 1185) . In 1489 the place name appears in the form Gundelzhoffen . In the 16th century the court had a letter of inheritance .

1598 is in a commissioned by the Count Palatine Philipp Ludwig made as part of a land survey "Description of the Fri: Pf: Ambtes HEMBAUR (= Hemau ) in the principality of Neuburg on the Nordgeü" of rain Staufer evangelical pastor and palatine topographer Christoph Vogel d. J. speaks of the hamlet as "Gundelzhof". The affiliation of the hamlet to the Palatinate-Neuburgic office of Hemau remained until the end of the Old Kingdom ; However, one of the two farms was imperial and assigned to the Hofmark Wildenstein .

On May 19, 1820 Gundelshofen came as part of a "border purification" from the Hemau Regional Court to the Riedenburg Regional Court in the Altmühlkreis, which was established in 1803 (from 1808; from 1810 in the Regenkreis , which was renamed Upper Palatinate in 1837 ). In 1836 the hamlet consisted of six houses with 37 inhabitants.

In February 1909 a lot of cattle drowned in a flood in the Polje.

In the course of the Bavarian regional reform of 1972, the hamlet became part of the city of Dietfurt in the Upper Palatinate district of Neumarkt.

In 2008 Gundelshofen was canalized and connected to the central sewage system in Dietfurt.
