history

First mention of Gutenfürst

In 1285 the name "Gvtenvirst" was in one of the listings of the possessions of Duke Ludwig II of Upper Bavaria on the other side of the Danube. In addition to Kühried , the place subject to the tax was also Gutenfürst.

Hofmark Good Prince

Until 1525 Kaspar Erlbeck was court lord of the Gutenfürst. Because of financial problems he had to give his "three farms in Gutenfürst, the Hammer Kaltenthal and other goods to the margraves Casimir and Georg von Brandenburg for the payment of 1000 Franconian guilders to fief". After Kaspar Erlbeck's death in 1525, the Gutenfürst fief came to his sons Jobst Wolf, Jorg Wolf and Wolf Wolfhart Erlbeck. They were followed by Hanns Christof von Gich, from whom the property passed to his heirs in 1581. In 1606, Jobst Sigmund von Sazenhofen was court lord of the Gutenfürst. He also held the Landsassengut Ödmiesbach after the Landsassengut Fuchsberg had been divided up. He also acquired Fuchsberg, so that Gutenfürst and Ödmiesbach belonged together. Jobst Sigmund was followed by his son Hanns Tobias von Sazenhofen, then in 1693/94 Hanns Andreas von Sazenhofen, whose widow and heirs in 1699. The Danish lieutenant colonel Friedrich Ulrich von Donop followed in 1708/09, August Anton von Gundel in 1715, and Johann Leonhard Danndorf in 1724. His successor was Peter Strigler and in 1751 his widow Cäcilie Strigler. In 1755 the Landsassengut Ödmiesbach with the fiefdom Gutenfürst passed to Joseph Aaron Strigler, who after the elevation to the nobility led the name "Strigler vom Löwenberg". In 1767 he was followed by his brother Alois Sigmund Franz Strigler on Gut Ödmiesbach with Gutenfürst. Since he could not pay the money for the takeover, the property fell back to Joseph Aaron Strigler von Löwenberg. On February 25, 1770, after changes of ownership within the family, Joseph Aaron Strigler exchanged "the knight and country estate Ödmiesbach" and the associated court marches Stainach and Guttenfürst with Ignaz Anton Mariophilus Falkner von Sonnenburg for the "knight and country estate Döllnitz". In 1792 Johann Niklas von Sonnenburg took over the Landsassengut Ödmiesbach, Gutenfürst and Steinach from his parents. He was followed by Kajetan von Sonnenburg and Baptist von Sonnenburg. Max von Sonnenburg committed suicide because of the “bad financial situation in 1834 in the Oedmiesbach Castle”.

Patrimonial court

The court rights in the Hofmarken lay with the nobles, who exercised the lower jurisdiction in their fiefdom. A decree of August 16, 1812 rearranged the judicial system. Depending on the size of the area, there were different classes of courts, on the lower level so-called patrimonial courts. "No subject was allowed to live more than four hours from the seat of the court". In 1848 all patrimonial courts were abolished.

Patrimonial Gutenfürst

A directory of the patrimonial courts of the Murach nursing office from 1809 lists among others: Gutenfürst, owner: Baptist von Sonnenburg zu Ödmiesbach, 10 families in Gutenfürst

On July 16, 1811, Johann Niklas von Sonnenburg applied for the establishment of a Gutenfürst patrimonial court. He intended to annex the court to Ödmiesbach, which belonged to the Vohenstrauss regional court . The residents of Gutenfürst wanted to stay in the district court municipality of Bukhardsberg with Kühried . This belonged to the district court of Neunburg vorm Wald . A letter dated October 1820 showed the reasons: “... The landlords and their judicial officers have such a burning desire for jurisdiction and the police, not with the intention of exercising law and order, but rather to make a profit. ... ". Gutenfürst stayed like Steinach at Ödmiesbach. In 1830 the subjects were able to move to the district court district of Neunburg as desired. In 1848 all patrimonial courts were abolished.

Parish parish

As of March 23, 1913 (Easter), Gutenfürst was part of the Teunz parish and had 15 houses and 66 residents.

Village chapel

On May 19, 1937, Michael Pühler, Gutenfürst's local representative, applied to the diocese of Regensburg for approval to build a village chapel. As a joint effort, the villagers built the building that was to be dedicated to the Mother of God. On September 12, 1938, the pastor of Teunz at that time, HH Pastor Hirn, consecrated the church in a solemn service. On the same day, the Way of the Cross received the church's blessing. During the Second World War, at the end of 1944, as in other places, the bell of the chapel was picked up in order to melt it down for arms production. Despite the difficulties after the end of the war, the new bell was consecrated on January 31, 1950. In 1972 the villagers of Gutenfürst restored the building, which Pastor Wendl blessed, under the direction of the then local representative Johann Schneeberger. A redesign of the forecourt was carried out under site representative Alois Eckl. In 1997 an electric bell was installed. Since the chapel was inaugurated in 1938, the Ostermeier family had taken over the three times daily bell service, which was carried out by hand. In 2002 a support association was founded to look after the preservation of the chapel. Chairman Alois Schneeberger led the renovation work, which began in spring 2010. After a general renovation, during which the floor panels were replaced, the roof structure was renewed and the interior fittings were completely overhauled, the village chapel Gutenfürst was blessed in September 2013, 75 years after its inauguration, by Auxiliary Bishop Reinhard Pappenberger in a solemn mass.

Church building

Community formation from 1818

In 1818 Johann Baptist von Sonnenburg wanted to join his Gutenfürst property to the patrimonial community of Ödmiesbach (Vohenstrauß Regional Court). The residents of Gutenfürst wanted to stay with the Kühried community. On November 2, 1818, the place was incorporated into Kühried. The community of Kühried had been part of the Neunburg vorm Wald regional court since 1820/21. The localities of Kühried with 23 families, Burkhardsberg with 9 families, Gutenfürst with 14 families, the Höcherlmühle, Hebermühle and Kührieder-Mühle each with one family belonged to the political municipality of Kühried. On March 20, 1830, the community of Wildstein with 31 families was incorporated into the community of Kühried with 42 families by mutual agreement. Since in the following period "the Kührieder did not want to be called Wildsteiner and the Wildsteiner did not want to be called Kührieder", an attempt was made on the Wildsteiner side to dissolve the communal ties. In 1860 Wildstein was an independent municipality.

Further church formation

In 1969 Gutenfürst together with Burkhardsberg, Haidhof, Hermannsried, Höcherlmühle, Kühried, Kühriedermühle, Ödreichersried, Wildstein and Zieglhäuser formed the community of Wildstein with a total of 475 inhabitants and 1276 hectares.

On December 31, 1990, Gutenfürst had 65 inhabitants and belonged to the Teunz parish.
