Limbach is a village in the Bavarian- Swabian district of Günzburg , which has been part of the city of Burgau since 1978 .
location
The village is just under five kilometers west of Burgau in the valley of the Deffinger Bach , which drains towards the Günz . The village is located south of the B 10 and the A 8 motorway on the GZ 15 district road .
history
Limbach was first mentioned in a document before 1300. From the 14th century the place belonged to the domain of the Wettenhausen monastery . In the course of secularization in Bavaria in 1803, Limbach, like the entire territory of Wettenhausen Monastery, came to Bavaria .
In the course of the Bavarian regional reform , Limbach, which was an independent municipality up to this point, was incorporated into the city of Burgau on May 1, 1978.
From 1679 to 1788 the pilgrimage church Maria-Königin-Bild stood north of the village . Due to the popularity of the pilgrimage, the original building was replaced by a larger church building between 1691 and 1694. The miraculous image of the pilgrimage church was preserved and can be seen on the left side altar of the Burgau parish church. Since 1964 there has been a small chapel on the site of the former pilgrimage church.
Attractions
The buildings that characterize the townscape are the parsonage, built in 1630, and the parish church of St. Stephen from the early 16th century, which was rebuilt in the Baroque style around 1755 according to plans by Joseph Dossenberger .
