history
Archaeological excavations show traces of settlement as early as the Bronze and Urnfield Ages . In the Middle Ages Heidenkam was the seat of a Hofmark . This was acquired by the Preysing family at the beginning of the 14th century .
On April 1, 1971, the place came as part of the municipality of Ast to the municipality of Tiefenbach.
Originally, Heidenkam was dominated by agriculture, but was expanded to a residential location for commuters and a settlement area to the south due to its proximity to the district capital Landshut, the A 92 motorway and Munich Airport .
Attractions
The townscape is shaped by the late Romanesque church of St. Peter , which was built in the 12th or 13th century. This is one of the oldest churches in the Landshut district. There is also a ground monument in Heidenkam , the now leveled castle stables of a medieval hilltop castle .
