history

The history of Marienstein is closely linked to the history of the monasteries of Marienstein and Rebdorf until secularization (1806).

See the main articles Kloster Marienstein and Kloster Rebdorf

The later “Marienstein” is first mentioned in 1216 as (settlement) “lapicidina” (= quarry or “stone pit”; the German form of the name only appears from the 15th century) in a comparison between the cathedral parish of Eichstätt and the Rebdorf monastery on parish law mentioned by Richolueszelle as part of Wasserzell and the quarry; the monastery replaced this parish right and received all remaining tithes except for the ten pennies and the blood tithing. In "Staingrub" the Rebdorf monastery owned several goods, lent them out and bought them, such as B. Show documents from the 15th century.

In 1469, “in villula (= hamlet) Staingrub” moved the monastery community founded around 1460 in Eichstätt by the dyer's daughter Walburga Eichhorn († 1484). The foundation stone of the monastery and church was laid in 1470 in what is now the “Mariastein” (name form based on “Steingrub” and the Virgin Mary ), and in 1471 they were consecrated. Bishop Wilhelm von Reichenau made the new monastery subject to the neighboring Rebdorf monastery and the Augustinian rule . In 1474 the monastery received three court racks in the hamlet of Steingrub from the Redorf canons . In 1482 an episcopal document states that "the hamlet of Steingrub ... is now called Mariastein". In 1488, Bishop Wilhelm von Reichenau confirmed the monastery chaplaincy donated by a canon in "Lapidismarie". In 1634 the monastery and church were cremated by the Swedes under the leadership of Landgrave Johann von Hessen-Braubach and then rebuilt. As a result of secularization , the monastery property (fields and buildings in Marienstein, Buxheim and Weigersdorf ) was sold to citizens in 1806 ; However, it remained as a central nunnery until it was abolished in 1832.

In 1814 Marienstein (this spelling appears in 1801, but does not become official until 1885) by a Kgl. Organizational decree assigned to the Eichstätter parish of S. Walburg. The services were held in the former monastery church "Mariä Heimsuchung", which was closed, cleared and partly abandoned in 1833 after the departure of the last six nuns who lived here as pensioners, and finally restored in 1842 by the buyers from 1838, the rent office messenger Welsch and comrades and was left to the community of Marienstein. Consecrated in 1843, it was now considered a minor church of St. Anna in the parish of St. Walburg. A renovation took place in 1877.

Towards the end of the Old Kingdom , around 1800, the hamlet of Marienstein comprised 13 properties. The Marienstein monastery owned two houses and the shepherd's house, and the Rebdorf monastery judge owned ten buildings, including the Marienstein monastery building with the priory. The high jurisdiction exercised the prince-bishop's office of the bailiwick, the village and community rule lay with the monastery judge Rebdorf. When the regional courts were established in the new Kingdom of Bavaria in 1806 , the city of Eichstätt endeavored to extend the scope of the municipal court granted to it to all places of the Eichstätt regional court that belonged to the Eichstätt parishes, including Marienstein. This was rejected by the state in 1810. The municipality of Marienstein, formed in 1818, remained part of the Wasserzell tax district and included the church village of Marienstein and the village of Rebdorf. Blumenberg was added between 1830 and 1856 , where a house was initially built and a hamlet developed in the 20th century that had eight residential buildings with 49 residents in 1950 and 17 residential buildings with 97 residents in 1961.

On January 1, 1974, Marienstein was incorporated into the large district town of Eichstätt as part of the regional reform in Bavaria . In the 1980s, the place had an agricultural business, a retail store, three craft businesses, a Caritas maternal convalescent home (also known as the “St. Stilla” health resort, then a student dormitory) and a school for educational assistance in the Marienstein children's village founded in 1976.
