history

The origin of the place name is unclear. It is derived either from an Indo-European root nav ('flow, swim', as in Latin navis 'ship') or from the Latin in abisso ( in the gorge ).

Roman coin finds show that the Romans once settled in this area.

The advancing Bavarians used the valley as a pasture, alpine pasture and hunting area, permanent settlement did not take place until the end of the 13th century. The Lower Bavarian Benedictine Monastery of Biburg and the Lords of Auffenstein were a larger manor . Copper and silver were mined in the 15th and 16th centuries.
