Place view

The Kirchdorf Holzharlanden is a district of the town of Abensberg in the Kelheim district in Lower Bavaria . Until 1972 it formed an independent municipality.

location

The place is essentially on the western flank of a slope, which is one of the last foothills of the Jura hilly landscape that ends here . The Danube Gorge near Weltenburg is 3 km north of the village. Regensburg is about 35 km to the northeast, Ingolstadt 40 km to the west. Munich is about 95 km south of the town.

history

To the south-east of the Buchhof wasteland , which belongs to the municipality of Holzharlanden, around 100 well-preserved burial mounds from the Middle Bronze Age and the Hallstatt Age were found. With the help of aerial archeology , it was also possible to determine the layout of a Roman manor near Buchhof .

The place was first mentioned in a document around 1160, when the Regensburg Bishop Hartwig II handed over the church to “Holtzerlanden” with all rights to the Weltenburg monastery . The name and the location of the place suggest that it is a cleared foundation in which mostly flax and hemp (= "Har") should have been grown. From 1500 to 1599 Holzharlanden belonged to the parish of Reißing. Until its secularization in 1806, pastoral care was provided by the Weltenburg monastery. From 1806 onwards he was pastored from Staubing .

When the political communities were formed in 1808/1818, Holzharlanden and the wasteland of Buchof were merged into one unit. In the 1940s, both places were incorporated into the Weltenburg community, but this was reversed after a short time. As part of the regional reform , Holzharlanden finally lost its political independence on January 1, 1972 when it was incorporated into the city of Abensberg.
