history

Until the church is planted

Konnersreuth was mentioned for the first time in 1218 in a document from the Waldsassen monastery , belonged to the extensive manor of the nearby monastery and shared its historical fate with devastation and change of faith. In 1468 Konnersreuth received market rights and the Fockenfeld estate, the later Fockenfeld monastery was the seat of a blood judiciary and a lower court of the Waldsassen monastery. In 1556 the Fockenfeld estate was secularized by the Elector Ottheinrich von Wittelsbach, who had accepted the Evangelical Lutheran creed, and came into private ownership. The taxable residents of the municipality of Konnersreuth can be seen in a Turkish tax account book of the Reichstürkenhilfe from 1567 ( State Archives Amberg ).

For generations, the Sölch family (Salich, Solich, Seelch, etc.) had considerable property in Konnersreuth, on the Liebertsmühl near Konnersreuth (Helene Bruscha, Annelies Sölch: Sölch family from Zettendorf, Eger district in Böhmen , February 1993, page 24 ff A copy of the typewritten manuscript in the Vienna City and State Archives , Municipal Department 8, Head of Service) and resident at the Fockenfeld estate until 1647. As a result of administrative reforms in the Kingdom of Bavaria before 1818, today's municipality of Konnersreuth was created.

Therese Neumann

Konnersreuth became known through the allegedly stigmatized Therese Neumann ("Resl von Konnersreuth"), daughter of a tailor in Konnersreuth and a farmer's maid. Before her death in 1962, the Fockenfeld estate near Konnersreuth with the Fockenfeld castle, which was expanded around 1750, was bought by the Bahner family of manufacturers from Oberlungwitz in Saxony and the Fockenfeld monastery was founded in the building complex on her initiative and with donations that were intended for her . The Theresianum monastery in Konnersreuth was founded after Therese Neumann's death, also financed by donations.
