history

Until the church is planted

In the 1960s, tombs from the 7th century were discovered that document early settlement. In general, the graves of the late 7th and early 8th centuries were associated with Bavarian settlement activity, with recent research on settlement history assessing an ethnic allocation (Bavarian / Franconian?) More cautiously than was the case in recent decades. As part of the Franconian expansion, a Franconian (Carolingian) royal court was set up in the Im Zipfel district on the eastern edge of Lauterhofen at the latest by the middle of the 8th century . In 806 the place was first mentioned as villa Lutrahahof in the capital of Charlemagne, known as Divisio Regnorum . Until 2006, as building research in 1962/63 showed, the remains of the early medieval St. Martin's Church had been preserved in two rural properties before it fell victim to the demolition excavator. The place was then owned by the Lords of Habsberg-Kastl and the Counts of Sulzbach around 1100 and was donated to the Kastl Monastery and finally to Bavaria . In the late High Middle Ages and in the late Middle Ages, Oberlauterhofen Castle stood on the eastern edge of today's town, owned by officials since 1307 and the Steinlingers from 1307 to 1487 .

In the course of the administrative reforms in Bavaria , today's municipality was created with the municipal edict of 1818 .
