history

Middle Ages and Early Modern Times

In the Old Kingdom , Kienberg belonged to the county of Lechsgemünd-Graisbach , so it was assigned to these counts with court and land rights, and later to the ducal-Bavarian and Palatinate-Neuburgian noble fiefs in Trugenhofen.

In 1481 the pastor of Trugenhofen received the tithe of Kienberg by comparison with Ruland von Trugenhofen . Later, Kienberg and Trugenhofen became part of the Hofmark Trugenhofen, which belonged to different owner families, most recently from 1802 to Count Du Moulin-Eckart zu Bertoldsheim.

Modern times

In the new Kingdom of Bavaria (1806), Kienberg was assigned to the Gansheim tax district in the Graisbach- Monheim district court and rent office in 1808/11 when the tax districts were formed . When patrimonial courts were formed in 1818/20 , the 18 Kienberg families came to the second class patrimonial court in Bertoldsheim , which was owned by Hofmarkherr Wilhelm Karl Joseph Adam Graf von Eckart called Eckert auf Moerlach. Bavaria repealed this noble lower jurisdiction in 1848.

In October 1854, the city suffered from a cholera - epidemic , by 23 of the then 93 residents died; the dead were buried in Trugenhofen.

In 1880 the community of Trugenhofen and with it also Kienberg moved from the district court Monheim of the district office Donauwörth to the district Neuburg an der Donau . In the course of administrative reform in Bavaria the independent by the end of 1977 community Trugenhofen with its districts Kienberg was Dünsberg and Störzelmühle in the market Rennertshofen the district Neuburg-Schrobenhausen on 1 January 1978 incorporated . Since then, Kienberg has been one of the 28 officially named districts of Rennertshofen.
