history
prehistory
With several prehistoric hilltop settlements , including on the Budelberg near Aufhausen and on the Hofberg near Schiltberg, a fully developed cultivated land could be recognized as early as the Bronze Age . Neolithic and Bronze Age ceramic shards from the Hofberg in Schiltberg prove the existence of prehistoric hill settlements. In Schiltberg's south-west, the people of the Urnfield Age also left clear calling cards in the form of clay pots and cast bronze cakes. The barrows in the Schiltberger Forest date back to the Hallstatt period. An iron short sword from today's Bsuchweg on the slope of the Bsuch hill reminds of the Bavarians . During the time of the Hungarian invasions , the residents of the surrounding villages built a refuge on the Budelberg near Holzhausen . The castle stables, ramparts and moats were preserved as remains of the railing.
The place and the woodland gained national fame through the former castle on the Hofberg (around 1000 to around 1450), in which the influential Marschalken von Schiltberg temporarily resided. Between 1224 and 1284, the Marschalken were military leaders and court officials of the Wittelsbach Count Palatine and Dukes.

The family had properties in the near and far, they reached into the Upper Inn Valley, including the Peissenberg Castle. At that time, the place Schiltberg formed the center of power of this extensive property complex. Until after the Second World War, the community prayed for Count Berchtold von Schiltberg every Sunday in remembrance of the dead. The Tatzenkreuz represents the Teutonic Order Commander Blumenthal , who belonged to the community . The Lords of Schiltberg were very close to the order and gave it generous donations.
