history

The place probably came to the Bishop of Eichstätt in 895 . A local nobility is attested in the 13th century: in 1253 a knight is called Burchardus de Yrenfridesdorf. 1305 "Irnfridesdorfen" was in the course of inheritance disputes after the extinction of Jeleniogórska counts with the Gebhard VII. Hochstift Eichstätt incorporated; In 1413 the Eichstätter bishop bought the Irfersdorf property of Johann II von Heideck . The Emmendorfer were enfeoffed , then the Lords of Absberg at Rumburg Castle . As aristocratic dwellings there was a "bricked floor" at the church, ie a high stone house, and, also at the church, a tower (mentioned in 1479 and 1518). The cathedral chapter of Eichstätt also owned the place. 1384 speaks of a tavern as an episcopal fiefdom; between 1561 and 1572 a second Taferne was built with the “lower landlord”. Alternating with Paulushofen , the place was the seat of the " Ehehaft Irfersdorf", to which other villages belonged. In 1437 Irfersdorf was detached from the Kirchanhausen parish and became an independent parish. A bathing room is mentioned in 1447. There was also a prince-bishop's forestry , mentioned in 1572. In the Thirty Years War in 1644 twelve properties were destroyed by the Swedes; the school temporarily closed, but had been intact again for some time in 1660. In 1687 a fire raged in the village (votive picture in the church). A new schoolhouse was built in 1715 and a new rectory in 1730.

Until the secularization of 1802 Irfersdorf was under the Kastenamt (Hirschberg-) Beilngries of the lower bishopric. With the secularization, the lower bishopric and with it Irfersdorf came to Grand Duke Archduke Ferdinand III. from Tuscany and 1806 to the Kingdom of Bavaria and there to the district court of Kipfenberg . 1808 from Irfersdorf, Oberemmendorf , Aschbuch and (up to 1817) Grampersdorf the control district Irfersdorf formed. In 1818 Irfersdorf became an independent municipality again. In 1830 the place had 324 inhabitants with 50 properties; Over a hundred years later, in 1950, this had hardly changed: with 59 properties now, the population was 374.

Hops were grown here in the 19th century ; In 1838 the place received the hop seal, and in 1841 a hop regulation was put into effect. In 1890 the curtain wall around the church, equipped with shooting openings, on the inside of which there were 15 alleys , was lowered to its present height. In 1950 a land consolidation was carried out. In the course of the Bavarian regional reform , Irfersdorf joined the municipality of Beilngries on July 1, 1972. In 1984 the place had 45 full-time agricultural businesses and 15 part-time businesses. In 2002, Josef March, the last pastor of Irfersdorf, died; Since then, pastoral care has been carried out from Gelbelsee .
