Location of Langwaid in Bavaria

Langwaid , until 1971 the seat of the independent municipality of the same name, is part of the municipality of Reichertshausen in the Upper Bavarian district of Pfaffenhofen an der Ilm .

location

The village lies in the valley of the Langwaider brook at an altitude of 470 to 514 m above sea level. NN. Population about 550.

history

The beginning of the place lies hidden in the darkness of history, from which it emerges for the first time in 1199, in which a Bernhard von Lancwat is mentioned as a witness in the traditions of the Freising Monastery. Ford in the river, durchwatbare site or forest swamp does the name of the village, that of elderly residents today Langboh is called.

A map from the middle of the 18th century shows the place still divided into two parts: Upper and Lower Langwaid . Around two hundred years ago the village had 25 properties. Some of the house names that were passed back then are still valid today. The Saz, the landlord, the Lenzbauer, the Abraham, the Stoffl and the Pointmann are still partly managed farms. The estates of Locher, Schneider, Pfleger and Wagner are still known. The older Langwaiders still know the situation from the Christdonl, the Bergjaggl and the Bader. The sources still name the cobbler, the tailor's Hans and the farmer.

In 1818 Langwaid became the seat of a municipality that also included Haunstetten, Gründholm, Bärnhausen and Haselhof.

• Haunstetten , whose pilgrimage church greets you far beyond the Ilm Valley, is mentioned as Ofensteti (Ofensteten) in the traditions of the Hochstift Freising as early as 1078. The lords of Ofenstetten, who are documented at this time, belonged to a noble family. They were ministerials, i.e. servants of the Counts of Scheyern. At the edge of the steep church hill you can still find Jurassic limestone during earthworks, probably the last evidence of the castle of the former masters.

The pilgrimage to Our Lady of Haunstetten goes back to an event from 1701, which is to be briefly presented here:

“Thomas Dietrich, Lenz farmer from Langwaid, had made a pilgrimage to the miraculous image of Our Lady of Sorrows in the Munich Ducal Hospital in dire need. As a souvenir he brought a waxy copy of the miraculous image there, which he set up on an oak tree in Langwaid. Next to it he put an offering box. The figure soon enjoyed great veneration. This - but above all the offering box - did not suit the church authorities at all. In April 1701 the figure came to the church of Haunstetten, which was consecrated to John the Baptist , by order of the church. Pilgrims hardly come in our time. Several votive tablets testify to the tradition of the pilgrimage of the citizens of Ilmried. "

• Gründholm is first mentioned in writing around 1091. The name is derived from the Old High German word grint , which means something like mountain top or head. Dr. Erik-Johannes Müller , Bishop of Sweden, in whose memory the citizens of Gründholm built the so-called Swedish Chapel, which was consecrated on July 6, 1948.

• Bärnhausen , the settlement of a Pero is first mentioned around 1200.

• Haselhof , a farm near Haselstauden, was first mentioned in 1676 as a sovereign estate as "Häßlhof". As a district of the former independent municipality of Langwaid, it does not appear until 1867.

Little can be reported about the development of the Langwaid community since 1818. The 25 properties in the mid-18th century had become 36 house numbers by the 1880s. Father Stephan Kainz, the Christdonl Martl, after whom a path in Langwaid is named, recorded this in his childhood memories. None of the old properties are left. New buildings and more houses in the vacant lots have emerged. Nevertheless, something of the original character of the place remained.

On April 1, 1971, the Langwaider gave up their communal independence and joined the Reichertshausen community.
