Provost office on the long field

The Propstei on the Langfeld is one of eight administrative districts that were founded by the Reichenbach Monastery from the 12th century to manage its extensive estates.

Geographical location

The Propstei on the Langfeld, or simply: Propstei Langfeld, extended to the area around the Reichenbach Monastery. In 1402 it had the following expansion: in the north it reached to Schöngras , in the east to Piendling , in the south to Schwalbenhof (forest) and in the west to Königshof (Nittenau) . In the following years, the area expanded and more villages were added.

history

The name Propstei auf dem Langfeld, which was in use until the 18th century, (in longo campo) is derived from the plateau behind the monastery.

From the 12th century, the Reichenbach Monastery divided its possessions into the following administrative districts:

• Provost office on the long field
• Provost Office Cham
• Provost office on the Naab
• Propstei in the Rottal
• Provost Illschwang on the Heubisch
• Provost of Swabia
• Propstei on the Danube
• Propstei Hohenstein (sold to the Waldsassen monastery in 1442. )

The favorable location of the Propstei Langfeld around the monastery made it the most important of the Propstei of the Reichenbach Monastery. It formed a kind of monastery territory, although the Walderbach monastery also owned it . Her income and influence came from the estates and also from the parishes in her area, for which she had the right of patronage.
