history

In 1135, the churches of Jenhausen and Magnetsried , which until then had belonged to the Habach Canons , became the property of the Bernried Abbey through an exchange . Until the secularization in 1803 Jenhausen formed its own parish , which was looked after by vicars from Bernried and Magnetsried together, after which the place was incorporated into the parish of Seeshaupt.
