history

The village of Kagern existed before 1270. It belonged to the Schneeberg office, the center of which was Altenschneeberg Castle . In the years from 1270 to 1803 the village changed hands frequently, was at times a Bohemian fiefdom and returned to Bavaria in 1805 through the Treaty of Pressburg . In 1803 Kagern was sold to the royal Bavarian lieutenant general Carl Wilhelm Graf von Eckart on Leonberg, whose daughter Katharina Eugenie married the French general Graf Du Moulin. Since then, Kagern has been part of the rulership of the Counts Du Moulin-Eckart, whose descendants now (2012) live in Winklarn Castle.
