history

Loiching was first mentioned in a document on August 25, 885. Emperor Karl III. , called "the fat one", gave the chapel in Ötting the ninth part of the income from 21 localities belonging to the royal estate, including "Liuchingan", Loiching. The scattering of these royal goods suggests that their size should not have been insignificant. Presumably they emerged from the agilolfingian ducal estate.

For a long time, today's municipal area belonged to the domain of the Counts of Frontenhausen and after their extinction in 1226 it fell as an inheritance to the bishops and the cathedral chapter of Regensburg. Secular rule came to the Duchy of Bavaria in 1386. Loiching, Weigendorf and Höfen (excluding the part of Höfen belonging to the Teisbach market) were chairmen of the Teisbach office in the Teisbach district court in the ducal and electoral Bavaria . In the course of the administrative reforms in the Kingdom of Bavaria , the municipal edict of 1818 created the municipalities of Loiching (from the chairmen of Loiching and Höfen) and Weigendorf. However, parts of the former community of Weigendorf belonged to other domains. On January 1, 1946, by order of the American military government, the area of ​​the former chairman of Höfen had to be assigned to the market town of Teisbach (districts of Höfen (including Neuhausen), Schönbühl and Gaubitzhausen) and to the city of Dingolfing (district of Grüblhof including Rostmühle).

The previously independent municipalities of Loiching and Weigendorf merged voluntarily on April 1, 1971 as part of the municipal reform with their headquarters in Weigendorf. In 1978 and 1979, the Loiching community was part of the Niederviehbach administrative community based in Niederviehbach . This was dissolved on January 1st, 1980 at the instigation of the Loiching community. The seat of the municipality Loiching has since been in the village of Loiching.

coat of arms

Blazon : Through a thorn-shaped silver sloping bar at the top and lobed at the bottom, divided by green and red; a slanted silver fish above, a slanted silver key below.

Explanation: The colors red and silver as well as the notch cut of the bar are taken from the coat of arms of the Counts of Frontenhausen. The colors red and silver and the bar also come from the coat of arms of the bishopric (the bishops of Regensburg). The fish and key are taken from the seal of the Regensburg cathedral chapter and are also intended to remind of the Loichingen parish church, which is consecrated to St. Peter and St. Paul. The fish and the wave-like shape of the bar are references to the location of the municipality on both sides of the Isar.

The choir as well as the nave vault and the tower date to the middle of the 15th century. The interior of the church is largely baroque. The high altar from 1628 is impressive and takes up the entire height of the choir and is flanked by two larger than life statues of the two church patrons. The importance of the stately rectory as the former summer residence of the Regensburg cathedral chapter is still recognizable today.
