history

Until the church is planted

The history of the Laaber market was determined for centuries by the fortunes and personalities of the noble family of the same name. Today the old remains of Laaber Castle and some documents are still witnesses of this famous noble family.

In connection with the founding of the Reichenbach Monastery , the Lords of Laaber are mentioned for the first time in a document in 1118. Previously they called themselves after Brunn and most likely descend directly from the Regensburg burgrave Babo. Thus they are related to the Riedenburgers . They have been related by marriage to the neighboring Abensbergers several times since the middle of the 12th century.

Their participation in public life in the empire and country in the 11th, 12th and 13th centuries was significant and has been continuously documented in documents and archives since 1181. In the period from 1334 to 1337, for example, Hadmar von Laaber was the mayor of Regensburg, and in 1366 Ulrich von Laaber was mayor of Nuremberg. Hadmar IV, whose tombstone was laid in the parish church in Laaber, was in Berlin in 1374 with Emperor Karl IV and a few years later was also mayor of Regensburg.

The knightly race of the von Laaber family also excelled in the field of poetry and song of minnesia. Probably the most famous work is "The Hunt" by minstrel Hadmar III . At the beginning of the 15th century, the von Laaber family were considered very rich. They had properties all over the area from Nuremberg to Regensburg. But with the passing of Hadmar IV in 1420, during whose lifetime Laaber had been granted market rights, the change, the distribution of property, sale and thus the destruction of the property began.

It remained in the hands of the descendants until 1465, but when the last of the von Laaber family, Hadmar VII, died ten years later, the rights over the castle and the place, the rule between the dukes and administrators were divided. Laaber then came into the possession of the Duke of Bavaria-Landshut , who had a court and care office set up here. When from 1503 to 1505 Georg the Rich of Bavaria-Landshut formed a separate duchy of Palatinate-Neuburg from the land share of Georg the Rich , Laaber was also added. In the 1530s, Ottheinrich introduced Lutheranism in Neuburg - including Laaber. Until 1618 the pastors of Laaber and the surrounding area were Lutheran. Laaber remained a maintenance office of the Duchy of Palatinate-Neuburg in the following centuries and shared the fate of this area. In 1778 it was returned to Bavaria together with the Palatinate regions. Laaber has had its market rights since 1393 after a license was granted. In 1818 the political municipality was established.

The family tree of Messrs. Von Laaber was created by Hund and Aventinus. Franz Xaver Scheuerer presented the work as a revision in autumn 1980. Both spellings appear, Herren von Laaber and Laber. They were strictly Catholic.

Incorporations
