Haunkenzell is a district of the municipality of Rattiszell in the Lower Bavarian district of Straubing-Bogen . Until 1978 the place formed an independent municipality.

location

The church village in the arrangement of a cluster village is located just under three kilometers northwest of Rattiszell in a western side valley of the Kinsach valley on the Haunkenzeller Bach. Stallwang is about two kilometers to the northeast .

history

The place name is probably derived from the Germanic first name Hugo , whose short form is Hauge or Hauk , the names Hanko or Hank could also come into question. Haunkenzell, first mentioned in 1184, was probably built as a clearing settlement by the Counts of Bogen .

The Hofmark goes back to the year 1311. At that time the Oberaltaich monastery was wealthy here. On June 5 of this year, Duke Otto von Niederbayern issued the so-called Ottonian Handfeast . This gave the aristocratic landlords the opportunity to buy the lower jurisdiction for part of the area from the state for a one-off tax .

As the owner of Hofmark Haunkenzell, Chunrad der Eycher can be traced here for the first time in 1361 and then until 1410. It passed from this Konrad Eycher to his son-in-law Kaspar Göttlinger around 1400; The Göttlingers donated the previous building of the St. Martin branch church in Haunkenberg (letter of foundation from St. Matthew's Day in 1476). In 1450 she got by marriage to the Nussberger, who in 1551 acquired the Hofmark Stallwang. The last of this family was Augustin Nussberger; he sold Haunkenzell and Stallwang to Albrecht von Murach zu Haibach . Towards the middle of the 17th century, the von Kecks owned Haunkenzell.

Community formation and incorporation

From the Hofmark Haunkenzell-Euersdorf with patrimonial court , the community Haunkenzell was established on November 29, 1818. In 1861 it had the seven districts of Haunkenzell, Hüttenzell, Limpfelbach, Neundlberg, Neundling, Pfahlhaus and Wascherszell.

The former municipality of Maiszell was completely incorporated into Haunkenzell in 1876 (Ederszell, Emmersdorf, Euersdorf, Gmeinwies, Machtenhof, Maiszell, Niedereier, Plenting). 1946 from the dissolved municipality Eggerszell the vilage Eggerszell, Eiermühl, Eiserszell, Gschwellhof and Hinterascha incorporated and from the dissolved municipality Pilgramsberg incorporated places Großneundling, Mutzen village Pilgramsberg. In 1949 Gmeinwies was transferred from the Haunkenzell community to Rattiszell. On July 1, 1973 the community consisted of the main town and 20 other districts: Ederszell , Eggerzell, Eiermühl , Eiserszell , Emmersdorf , Euerstorf , Großneundling , Gschwellhof , Hinterascha , Hüttenzell , Limpflbach , Machtenhof , Maiszell, Mutzendorf , Neundling , Niedereier , Pfahlhaus , Pilgramsberg, Plenting and Wascherszell . As part of the municipal reform , it was incorporated into the municipality of Rattiszell in 1978.

In the municipal coat of arms of Haunkelzell from 1953, the family coats of arms of the Eycher and the Nussberger are linked. With their colors and diamonds, both point to the coat of arms used by the Counts of Bogen until 1242.

The congregation's meeting room is located in the old schoolhouse. In 1976 Walther P. Meinhard wrote the home book of the Haunkenzell community in the then Bogen district . The cemetery was created in 1953 and expanded in 1988.
