history

People Bach (after the medieval pronunciation Laidnbach) is either derived from the personal name Liut or, what is more likely, from a Lutinbach ("near the loud, smoking Bach").

Menschenbach is first mentioned in 1129. At that time, the noble family of the Lords of Lutenbach or the Leutenbecker with their own castle was here. Part of the former castle wall can still be seen in the basement of the Bögerl property. An underground corridor is also said to have led from there to the old castle in Deining. The area around Leutenbach was inhabited by the Celts a long time before . This is evident from excavations in the "Loh-Holz". From October 18-20, 1903, two burial mounds were demolished. Grave goods such as foot rings, gooseneck needles, robe needles made of bronze , an amber ring as well as vessels, pots and bowls made of clay were found. The found objects were assigned to the Hallstatt period .
