history

Oberhummel from the south

The first mention of Hummel can be found in a Freising document dated May 31, 808 as "Humpla". The land register of the Hochstift Freising, which was created around 1180, distinguishes for the first time between Oberhummel ("Humblin superius") and Niederhummel ("Humblin inferius"). Hummel was a closed Hofmark from 1284 , which included the places Oberhummel, Niederhummel and Windham and was in the Bavarian district court of Kranzberg. Hofmarksherr was the Hochstift Freising , which was then dissolved in 1803 as part of the secularization in Bavaria . The Hofmark Hummel came into the possession of the Electorate and later Kingdom of Bavaria. With the community edict of 1818, the community Oberhummel was formed with Niederhummel and Windham. This municipality was dissolved on May 1, 1978 on the occasion of the municipal reform and incorporated into the municipality of Langenbach.
