Lisberg Castle

Until the 19th century

Lisberg catches the eye from afar with the Lisberg Castle . The castle and with it the place were first mentioned in a deed of donation from the year 820. The castle is one of the oldest preserved castles in Germany. From 1600 to 1707 the Protestant line, from 1707 to 1790 the Catholic line of the barons of Münster owned the fiefdom of Lisberg. The castle is privately owned.

With the Rheinbund act 1806 the rule of the barons of Münster-Lisberg came to Bavaria .

The municipality of Lisberg has been made up of the formerly independent municipalities of Lisberg and Trabelsdorf since May 1, 1978. Two years after the regional reform of 1978, Lisberg broke away from the Stegaurauch administrative community and the Trabelsdorf Castle, which was completely renovated in 1980, was the result of the administrative community with the neighboring community of Priesendorf.

History of the Jews in Lisberg

The Jewish community was first mentioned in 1739 because of the use of its burial place . The apartments of the Jews were in the area of ​​today's Kaulberg, Kasernstrasse and Brunnenweg streets. On September 19, 1904, the Lisberg Jewish Community was merged with that of Trabelsdorf. Until the end of April 1942 there were still ten Jews in Trabelsdorf.
