Place name interpretation

The name of the place is interpreted as a settlement "to the long field".

history

The village, located on an old imperial road leading from Nuremberg to Regensburg, is likely to have arisen in the course of the planned settlement of the area by the Frankish royalty; this is indicated by the syllable "-feld" in the place name and the St. Martin's patronage of the local church. In addition, three royal courts from the 11th century have been identified in the vicinity: Dürn , Mantlach and Oberweiling . Lengenfeld local nobility are mentioned in 1191, probably referring to a different Lengenfeld. The place has belonged to the Helfenberg rule since the 13th century at the latest . In 1307 an infirmary, in 1349 and 1381 a mill in Lengenfeld is mentioned. In the 14th century, an aristocratic seat was established in Lengenfeld, on which vassals of the Regensburg bishopric were seated as independent, but never village lords.

In 1372/73 the rule of Helfenberg and thus also the blood jurisdiction over the goods to "Lengvelt" passed to the Count Palatine Ruprecht. Around 1400, the Helfenberg rulership in Lengenfeld included the Maierhof, 3 hubs, 1 mill, the forge, the bath, 2 taverns and 1 farm. The Salbuch of the rule Helfenberg show for 1588 and 1622 about 30 possessions for the place. In 1681, the Counts Tilly, who had owned the Helfenberg estate since 1631, acquired the Lengenfeld seat from a Haller zu Raitenbuch. Towards the end of the Old Kingdom , around 1800, Lengenfeld consisted of 40 properties; there were 3 mills (Dorfmühle, Weihermühle, Ostermühle), a wheat beer brewery, a schoolhouse, which was also the sacristan's house, and a community shepherd's house.

In the Kingdom of Bavaria (1806) the Lengenfeld tax district was formed around 1810 , to which, in addition to the village of Lengenfeld, the village of Harenzhofen and the desert areas of Matzenhof , Ostermühle , Schafhof , Schwaighof and Weihermühle belonged. With the community edict of May 15, 1818 it became the rural community Lengenfeld in the Parsberg district court ; the Weihermühle has not been mentioned since 1926, and the Schafhof was relocated to Velburg on January 1, 1946.

Church conditions

The parish of Lengenfeld, located in the Eichstätter diocesan area, was subjected to the Reformation under Palatinate-Neuburg in 1556 . The recatholicization took place in 1625. The respective change of faith had to perform all subjects. In addition to the parish church of St. Martin (rebuilt and partly rebuilt in the Baroque style 1693–1696) there was the Tillysche Castle Chapel dedicated to Saints Cosmas and Damian. Filial churches are St. Aegidius in Harenzhofen and St. Nikolaus in Rammersberg . There are 7 chapels from the 18th century at the parish seat. Until the late 1950s there was the traditional martini at the patronage in Lengenfeld. In 1994 the custom was revived.
