A Eckart von Leubrantschirchen (Leberskirchen) is mentioned in a document in 1295 as an important follower of Bishop Heinrich von Regensburg . The local noble family of Leberskirch, which died out in 1521 and named after their ancestral seat Leberskirchen, was historically of great importance for the entire municipality of Schalkham. They had been wealthy in the area on the Vils since the High Middle Ages.
