history

The places Niederulrain and Oberulrain as well as the hamlet Lina originally formed the common political municipality of Oberulrain . This was incorporated into the city of Neustadt on May 1, 1978 as part of a municipal reform.

The church villages of Ulrain were mentioned in documents as early as 901 as "Olreini" and 1018 as "Olrenna". Niederulrain was an independent Hofmark until the beginning of the 19th century . The aristocratic seat was owned by the "Wimmer von Marching " in the 14th century and later passed on to "Heinrich the Harlander". In 1572 Sebastian Kugler, the former administrator of the Biburg Monastery, acquired the Hofmark. Around 1585 the goods complex came to the "Pilbis von Siegenburg ". At the end of the 17th century, "Karl Freiherr von Heydon" was the owner of the Hofmark. Through his daughter Anna Maria, married Countess Rambaldi, Niederulrain fell to the noble family who had immigrated from Verona . Anna Maria von Rambaldi, who died in 1802, was the last nurse in Neustadt an der Donau. An epitaph of the countess can be found in the parish church of Neustadt.

Niederulrain Castle, which no longer exists today, was located on the south-east of the Nussberg. It is said to have been destroyed as early as 1388 by the Rhenish Association of Cities in the City War.
