Munich is a district of the municipality of Hirschbach in the Upper Palatinate district of Amberg-Sulzbach , Bavaria.

geography

The place is in the northern Franconian Jura , about three kilometers east of Hirschbach, at an altitude of 526  m in a dry valley . The closest towns are Sulzbach-Rosenberg , 13 km southeast and Hersbruck , 11 km southwest. A municipal road connects the village with the district road AS 39, which runs 500 m to the east . The public transport does not serve the place.

history

It is not known when the area was settled. The barren, calcareous soils were difficult to cultivate and the place is not on any flowing water. The area is also climatically disadvantaged, characterized by rainy summers, long, severe winters and was therefore unattractive for agricultural use. However, the numerous caves in the area, for example the " Bismarck Grotto ", the "Windloch", "Im Klausnerberg" and a few others have been used repeatedly as burial places since the La Tène period up to modern times.

The hamlet was recorded in the Bavarian original cadastre in the 1810s with six farms and five small ponds . Until the municipal reform , Munich was part of the municipality of Achtel , in 1972 it was dissolved and the districts incorporated into Hirschbach.
