Hilgartsberg is a district of the municipality Hofkirchen (Donau) in the district of Passau in Lower Bavaria .

history

Hilgartsberg was the main town of a rule that, after the death of Count von Rapoto II von Ortenburg, came into the possession of Duke Heinrich of Lower Bavaria in 1259 . After changing owners, the rulership with the court brands Schöllnstein , Rannetsreit, Garham, Leithen and Oberngschaid was given to Hanns Ernest Graf Fugger , Lord of Kirchberg and Weißenhorn as a fief. In 1821 Joseph Eligius Graf Fugger zu Glött sold the rule to the Bavarian state. The kb Graflich Fuggerische Patrimonialgericht Hilgartsberg , formed in 1814 , thus only existed for a short time and the last remnants of aristocratic rule over the Hilgartsberg community, formed in 1818 by the Bavarian municipal edict, had expired. On October 1, 1970, the municipality of Hilgartsberg merged with the municipality of Hofkirchen (Danube).
