history
Surname
Neuhofen ( lat.nova Curia ). The place name is made up of the term new and the term courtyard, which describes a rural house and meadow area. The associated adjective and the designation for the inhabitants is Neuhofner and not, as is occasionally observed, Neuhofener.
Around 550 AD, the area was first settled by the Bavarians and then by the Franks . The current towns of Hauping and Gobrechtsham bear witness to this time.
middle Ages
First references to the current name date back to 1140. In the handover book of the Reichersberg Abbey there is a note about “Hainricus de Nuinhouen” and “Tage de Gotprethesheim” at that time.
Modern times
Since the founding of the Duchy of Bavaria, the place was Bavarian until 1779 and came to Austria after the Treaty of Teschen with the Innviertel (then 'Innbaiern'). The two cadastral communities of Neuhofen and Gobrechtsham are created . During the Napoleonic Wars briefly Bavarian again, it has belonged again to Upper Austria since 1814.
20th century
After the annexation of Austria to the German Reich on March 13, 1938, the place belonged to the Gau Oberdonau . After 1945 the restoration of Upper Austria took place.
On November 17, 1944 around noon, an American bomber squadron with four-engine Boeing B-17 “Flying Fortress” flew an attack on a column of Wehrmacht vehicles that were lingering in the municipality. A total of 23 250-kilogram high-explosive bombs were dropped, whereby they missed the actual target, the Wehrmacht vehicles. In addition to the then Dallingerhaus , the south side of the church, the cemetery and the municipal office were badly damaged. House roofs and window panes in the town center also broke. There were neither injuries nor deaths. Most of the bombs detonated in adjacent fields and meadows.
Infrastructure
Social facilities
The following are to be cited as social institutions: kindergarten, elementary school, parish home, assisted living, doctor's practice, youth club as well as community and registry office.
fire Department
The Neuhofen im Innkreis volunteer fire department was founded in 1883 and consists of the Neuhofen and Kohlhof fire departments. In 1954 the first motorized fire engine was purchased, which was in operation until 1980. It was replaced by an LFB-A fire engine, which was in use until 2009. In 2000 a command vehicle and a TLF 2000 fire engine were put into service. The command vehicle acquired in 2000 was retired in 2013 and exchanged for a new Mercedes Sprinter vehicle that had been procured with own funds. The old command vehicle was immediately used in the flood operation in the town of Schärding after it was sold by the Neuhofen Fire Department. In May 2009 the fleet was expanded with a small fire engine KLF. In 2000 the new fire station was inaugurated, which is built and used together with the municipal building yard.
The Kohlhof volunteer fire brigade was founded in 1905. After purchasing the first motorized sprayer in 1937, a so-called tractor train followed in 1958. In 1976 and 1984 a small fire engine was purchased. The construction of the fire station of the Kohlhof volunteer fire brigade, which began in 2009, has been officially stopped until further notice, as there were deviations from the approved construction plans during construction.
In 1981 and 2009 the district fire brigade festivals were organized by the Neuhofen im Innkreis volunteer fire brigade.
Gastronomy and accommodation
There are a total of 4 inns and a snack bar (Baumbach district) available for guests in the community area. Guest rooms for overnight stays are also offered. A special feature is the overnight stay in a so-called troad box (grain box ).
Local supply
A Raiffeisen bank and a butcher shop are available for local residents. In the neighboring Ried im Innkreis there are many shopping opportunities available.
traffic
The most important federal highways through the local area are the Frankenburger Bundesstrasse and the Salzburger Bundesstrasse. A section of the Ried bypass road also runs along the municipal border with Ried im Innkreis. A footpath and bike path connects the district capital Ried im Innkreis with the center of Neuhofen. This route takes about 25 minutes on foot, and it takes about 10 minutes to get to the city center by bike. The closest train station is Ried im Innkreis main station.
Drinking water supply
The drinking water is pumped from a newly built drinking water well as well as the old well on the Leinberg for most of the municipality. The villages of Auleiten and Spießberg get their water from the St. Thomas well.
- "Ramersberger" water tunnel
A water tunnel (also called Kanat ) is used to obtain drinking water and can be understood as a horizontal well that collects the water from water-bearing layers as well as seeping water above the point of consumption. Around 20 such canoes are known in Upper Austria, few are still in operation. One of them, the Ramersberger Wasserstollen, is located in the district of Kohlhof, 2.5 km west-southwest as the crow flies from the center of Neuhofen, or approx. 50 meters west of the Ried-Lohnsburg main road and 450 meters west of the Ramersberghof. The water tunnel is estimated to be 150 to 400 years old. There are no indications of mechanical drilling or excavations.
The water tunnel was explored in a total of two inspections (July 4, 2002 and May 13, 2005). The total length is 200.2 inclined meters and 174 meters horizontally. The gradient from the source pot to the entrance is 4.2 meters with an aisle width of about one meter and a room height of 1.35 to 2 meters. There are 45 small niches in the water tunnel, which are known in a similar form from earlier earth stables . The abundant in fauna consists among other things of the following species: turritellidae , Pseudoscorpion , Weberknecht , Assel , millipedes , springtails , Bandfüßer , parasitic wasp , racing fly , Caddis , Zackeneule and bat .
Small hydropower plant
A small hydropower plant built in 2006 is located in the course of the Oberach stream. The average power of the turbine is approx. 10 kWh. The water required for operation is taken from an old water weir system and returned to the Oberach at the end of the slope. The electricity generated from renewable energy sources supplies around 30 average households. With the construction of the hydropower plant, the fish migration route, which had been interrupted for many years, was reopened. The fish pass now enables an unhindered connection to the parts of the stream above.
Current construction projects
In late summer 2009, the renovation of the village square and the Frankenburger Landesstraße (L509) in the local area began. The core of the renovations is the expansion or extension of the existing cycle path into the town center. With the redesign of the village square, new parking spaces have been created in the center of the village, the center of the village will be moved to the church. The renovation work on the municipal office was completed in the summer of 2009. A contemporary community service center was created. The general renovation of the village church was completed in autumn 2009. In addition to new seating and the renovation of the floor, the valuable lead glass windows were also restored.
The new residential area in the north of the municipality is constantly being expanded, the influx of new municipality citizens is high due to the proximity to the city of Ried im Innkreis.
The construction of the fire station of the Kohlhof volunteer fire brigade, which began in 2009, has been officially stopped until further notice, as there were deviations from the approved construction plans during construction. The local doctor's practice (former community and fire station) will be rebuilt from January 2010 and will therefore be relocated to the bank's building for the duration of the construction work until around the beginning of June 2010.

The USV Neuhofen fighting team currently plays in the 1st class middle-west of the Upper Austrian Football Association . In addition to the long-term promotion of young talent, greater success can be attributed in particular to the cooperation with SV Ried im Innkreis , which plays in the 2nd division and which strengthens SV Neuhofen with players from the Ried Football Academy.
Culture and sights
music Society
The Musikverein Neuhofen im Innkreis has around 51 active and 430 supporting members (as of October 2011).

Oddities
In 2007 the "Neuhofner QuietschEnten-race" took place for the first time. Visitors can buy one or more rubber rubber ducks with lot numbers in advance. The start of the race of the approx. 4,000 rubber ducks is at the Oberach waterfall, the finish at the bridge on the sports grounds. The winners receive valuable prizes. This event is always well attended, as the sports club, as the organizer, is not only responsible for the duck race, but also for the celebrations and the award ceremony. The guest of honor at the 2009 race was, among others, the two-time Paralympics winner Thomas Geierspichler . In 2007, among others, the silver medalist Ludwig Paischer and the slalom World Cup winner Reinfried Herbst were guests of honor in Neuhofen.
On March 10, 2012, a mysterious hole in the ground was discovered in the municipality. After initial investigations and many speculations as to where this hole in the ground might come from, the cause was investigated a few days after it was discovered. It was an earlier well that was used to find petroleum. The backfill sagged and the hole in the ground was created. The hole in the ground of initially unknown origin was a magnet for visitors and attracted many onlookers.
