history
Village history
A deed of donation dated July 17, 1135, which was issued by Margrave Diepold von Vohburg , shows that Pitzling, together with the localities of Altenmarkt, Wiltmaring and Wald, has been assigned to the Reichenbach Monastery . This is due to the fact that Diepold von Vohburg founded the monastery himself and provided basic supplies for the monks living there.
After the death of Ludwig of Bavaria in 1347, Pitzling was given to the Wittelsbachers as pledge as part of the county of Cham and belonged to the "Upper Palatinate" for almost 300 years. The residents were also forced to accept the Protestant faith of the rulers. In 1625, due to the return to the Kingdom of Bavaria, the population was forced to change to the Catholic faith.
Since Pitzling was insignificant as a small village, it shared the fate of the surrounding towns and villages during both war and heyday. However, Pitzling was hit particularly hard in the Thirty Years War because (after Regensburg had been conquered by the Swedes) in November 1633 a division under Colonel Taupadell took possession of the city of Cham and had the surrounding area plundered.
The village was also not spared from the plague and other waves of disease, so that some of the courtyards were vacant. In 1750, Pitzling had only grown by three properties, namely from the original 20 to 23. In 1795, fallow fields and forests in the village area were distributed to the farmers in Pitzling in order to restore order at least here.
Around 1809, in the district town of Cham, discussions were held about the division of the villages in the district. After lengthy discussions, the Pitzling community was founded on December 24, 1828, with the towns of Großbergerdorf and Frieding. The municipality was part of the Loibling tax district and was therefore referred to as the “tax municipality”. The tax situation has been preserved to this day in a liquidation protocol from 1842 and also confirms the existence of 25 farms. In total, the municipality of Pitzling had an area of 3063 daily mills (≈ 1041 ha), which was divided between 60 owners.
In 1848, due to the new constitution, the court brands, which had existed since the 14th century, were dissolved in all of Bavaria and there were now free farmers in Pitzling as well. After King Ludwig I abdicated , the peasants from Pitzling and the surrounding area plundered the property of the castle courtyard, a marque at the time.
During the world wars, a total of 24 men never returned home. To commemorate the victims of the wars, a memorial for 4000 Reichsmarks was erected in 1920, which was given a new text in 1946 due to the Second World War. After the First World War, a telephone system was installed in the village, which 10 years later was extended to the whole village together with the power grid.
On January 1, 1972, Pitzling was incorporated into the now independent municipality of Pemfling. Due to the increasing number of inhabitants, a new settlement area was set up in the direction of Pemfling and in 1982 the streets and house numbers in Pitzling were assigned and rearranged.
History of the inhabitants
A noble family could never be proven in Pitzling, although a certain "Cunrad der Groze zu Putzling" is named in a document from June 15, 1396. However, the Lausser family of farmers could be found in several logs, who owned several of the farms in Pitzling in the 15th and 16th centuries. Some of the descendants of this family still live in Pitzling today and also have the same properties as they did 500 years ago. The earliest evidence was found in a distribution report from 1520; definitive evidence for the existence of the family could only be provided by a document from 1589.
Place names through the ages
| year | Surname |

The repeated change of place names in documents is due on the one hand to the always different spelling in the Middle Ages and on the other hand to the different pronunciation of the place name. The actual place name is made up of the words "Buzili" or "Buzelin", which was most likely the name of the clan eldest and the ending "ng" which indicates a place. The village was named after one of the clan elders who lived in Pitzling before 1135.
Special features of the place
Field chapel
On February 16, 1846, the village community in Pitzling applied to the royal district court of Cham to build a chapel. Since there were no objections from the episcopal ordinariate and the royal interior ministry also gave the approval to build the chapel on May 26, 1846, work on the chapel finally began on June 17, 1847. However, there were problems during the construction, as already 10 days after the start of construction the execution of the chapel deviated too far from the plans. The construction was therefore finally stopped in 1848 until further notice. A year later, the Cham Regional Court succeeded in implementing a new plan based on the elements that had already been built. The construction could now be completed, and in 1851 the field chapel in Pitzling was consecrated.
On August 19, 1892, a great fire broke out in one of the properties near the chapel. The flying sparks ensured that the chapel burned down to the foundation walls. Two years later a new chapel was built and rededicated in 1895. The painting on the ceiling above the altar was painted in the neo-romantic style but was falling into disrepair due to the damp masonry. The chapel could be renovated in 1978 for 63,381 DM and the painting, insulation and roof structures were completely renewed.
The Swedish Cross
As in many other villages, there are also numerous wayside crosses and small monuments in Pitzling. One of these monuments is the "Swedish Cross". It is a weathered stone cross about 105 cm high and 51 cm wide without an inscription. Whether it is an atonement cross, i.e. reparation for a crime committed, or a mark for a mass grave from the Thirty Years War is unknown, although the stone cross probably dates from this time.
Floodplain
In the north-west of the village there is a forest area surrounded by fields with 26 small lakes. The area is used by the village population for forestry and fishing and also for agricultural purposes. A partially paved path leads through the water protection area. It also includes a small stream that originated in a lake near Pemfling. The area is also called "Viecht" (Bavarian: [ʼfe̯ɪçt]) by the locals. This name appears for the first time in a march report from 1795, when a forest landscape in Viecht was reallocated. The name could refer to former animal pastures in this area, which means that the name was probably used before 1795, as cattle has not been farmed here for a long time.
