history
Until the church is planted
The origin of Hohenwart was a former castle of the Rapotonen . The last of this family founded a women's monastery in the fortification in 1074 . Hohenwart was granted market rights in 1356 and was moved from Klosterberg to the banks of the Paar at the end of the 14th century . The Hohenwart market belonged to the Munich Rent Office and the Pfaffenhofen Regional Court of the Electorate of Bavaria . Hohenwart had a market court with its own magistrate rights. In the course of the administrative reforms in Bavaria , today's municipality was created with the municipal edict of 1818 .

The hohenwart abbey was 1803 secularized and the monastery church to the parish church of St. George rededicated. The monastery buildings have been owned by the Regens-Wagner Foundation in Dillingen since 1878 and house facilities for the hearing impaired.

coat of arms
|
|
Blazon : "In gold, St. George in blue armor and a silver skirt on a red-bridled black steed that bursts to the left, piercing the green lindworm crouching on the green ground with the red lance."
History of the coat of arms: St. George was the patron saint of the former Benedictine monastery on the Klosterberg and was therefore also the patron saint of the Hohenwart market, which had developed as a settlement around the monastery. The market already had its own seal in the middle of the 14th century, which was first mentioned in a document in 1349 and has been handed down in prints since 1374. Until 1606, the market seal showed St. George standing on a pedestal, nimbly, in chain mail with a short tunic, a lance in his right hand, a cross shield on his left arm, but without a dragon. Since the old seal had been worn out through centuries of use and was no longer legible, the mayor and council asked for their badge to be renewed and improved. A draft for the new coat of arms with the local patron was submitted. Duke Maximilian I gave the market the improved coat of arms, on which St. George is shown riding on horseback above the green Lindwurm in blue armor and red lance. The coat of arms was also found in this form in the following years in seals and in heraldic literature. |
