history

Haag is mentioned for the first time in 1280 in the second Bavarian Duke Surbar as "Hage". It is written here that the ducal marshal from the nearby Schiltberg in "Hage" has a hat, that is, a medium-sized farm, and meadows on the Weilach brook from the duke. The meadows are so big that they can deliver 100 loads of hay.

The word Hag is a nature name and means thorn bushes, (low) bushes or hedge. It can hardly be said whether one of the frequently mentioned “Hage” or “Hag” of the high Middle Ages in the Freising tradition refers to this Hague.

In the 12th and 13th centuries, the Scheyern monastery purchased goods here; therefore Haag is often mentioned in documents from the Scheyern monastery from the 11th to 14th centuries. In the 15th century the Nordhofer family is mentioned as the owner of a noble seat in Haag. Later the place came to Hofmark Eisenhofen .

The Thirty Years' War and the plague in its wake probably also raged terribly in Hague.
