history

The immigrating tribes found fertile soil in the area around 500 AD and took it under the plow. The first documented mentions of Kollbach go back to the years 818-838. We find the name of the place in the following spellings: Chalpacha, Kalapah to Cholinpah. The Catholic parish of Kollbach is first mentioned in a document around 864 under Bishop Embricho, also Ambricho of Regensburg. This means that it is one of the original parishes and is therefore one of the oldest parishes in the district. The parish churches of Wimmersdorf, Niedertrennbach, Marastorf, Wiesen and Geigenkofen belong to the parish of Kollbach. Interestingly enough, according to old traditions, violin stove is said to have been the focus of pastoral care in the beginning. Kollbach later became it due to a monastery property located here, which was administered by a priest. At the beginning of the 16th century there was a noblemen's seat in the village, which also included the tavern, a courtyard and the forge. In 1648 the Swedes lived in the area for the third time, scorching and pillaging. They were followed by hunger and plague, which almost made the region extinct. The Catholic parish church of St. Emmeram in Kollbach is a pseudo-basilica . It was built in 1732/34 and rebuilt in 1856. Since then it has had a neo-Romanesque style. In 1856 the church was extended by two side aisles and in 1871 the spire was converted from the previous onion dome to the octagonal pyramid tower that still exists today. The church houses two late Gothic altars, one with a depiction of St. Kinship (from the cemetery chapel), the other with Christ Salvator and the twelve apostles (from the branch church in Wiesen). Both altars are important stylistically interesting works.

The formation of the rural community Kollbach took place in 1818 with the Bavarian Gemeindeedikt . On January 1, 1972, the previously independent community was incorporated into Gangkofen.
