history

Nothing is known about the exact beginnings of the rule. From 990 to 1272 the Counts of Moosburg had the rule of Au as a fief. It was followed by the von Stein and the Abensbergs .

On September 12, 1349, Count Ulrich III. von Abensberg for Au with Kaiser Ludwig the Bavarian the right to market : … the right to surround themselves with fences and ditches, also that they should have stick and gallows and a weekly market.

After the death of Ulrich III. von Abensberg In 1385, Markt and Veste Au were sold to the Preysinger for 950 Hungarian guilders . This was followed by the barons of Thurn , whose castle in Au burned down completely in the War of Landshut Succession from 1503 to 1505 and was rebuilt in its current dimensions from 1544 to 1578. In 1644 the barons of Fraunhofen acquired the rule, followed by the Counts of Törring-Seefeld as heirs. From 1764 to 1828 the Counts of Preysing-Hohenaschau owned the rule. In 1818 a patrimonial court was set up in Au as part of the 2nd municipal edict that included the areas of the Au dominion. The Barons von Maderny followed as owners from 1828 to 1833, the Counts of Montgelas from 1833 to 1845 and, from 1846, the Barons Beck von Peccoz .

The last remnants of the aristocratic rule were eliminated in 1848, and the castle in Au is still owned by the Beck von Peccoz family.
