Gundelsdorf is a parish village and part of the market Pöttmes in the Bavarian-Swabian district of Aichach-Friedberg . The place is about 15 kilometers northwest of the district town of Aichach . The wasteland of Koppenzell is also located in the district of the same name .

history

Gundelsdorf was first mentioned in a document in 1270 under the name Gundoltsdorf , which suggests a farm belonging to a founder of the same name. In the Thirty Years War the place was completely destroyed in 1630.

Until July 1, 1972, Gundelsdorf belonged to the district of Aichach as an independent municipality and then fell to the newly founded district of Aichach-Friedberg with the regional reform in Bavaria , which was called the district of Augsburg-Ost until May 1, 1973 . On January 1, 1976 Gundelsdorf was incorporated into the Pöttmes market.

Worth seeing

The catholic parish Heilig Kreuz belongs to the parish community Pöttmes in the deanery of Aichach-Friedberg of the diocese of Augsburg. Ingstetten , Mandlach , Sedlbrunn and Sankt Othmar also belong to the parish .

The neo-Gothic parish church Heilig Kreuz with a Scheyerer two-beam cross was built in 1913. The tower pyramid, which was destroyed by storm damage in 1938, was renewed in 1951.

The chapel near the desert of Koppenzell, the pilgrimage church of St. Othmar and the Sedlbrunn estate are also entered in the list of monuments.
