history
Kumreut was first mentioned around 1200. The place belonged in the Hochstift Passau to the office Röhrnbach in the district court Leoprechting. The place was in 1803 with the largest part of the Passau area in favor of the Electorate of Salzburg by Ferdinand III. Secularized by Tuscany and fell to Bavaria in 1805 . With the formation of the municipalities in 1818 due to the second Bavarian municipality edict of 17 May 1818, the municipality Kumdorf was formed.
