Reichertshofen is a market in the Upper Bavarian district of Pfaffenhofen an der Ilm and, together with the municipality of Pörnbach, forms the Reichertshofen administrative community .
geography
The Reichertshofen sub-center is located in the Ingolstadt planning region , on the Paar .
The market is located at the eastern end point of the ridge that runs south of the Donaumoos and separates it from the Paartal valley. Major parts of the municipality are located within the tertiary hill country south of the Ingolstadt Danube Plain. Reichertshofen can thus be located on the northern edge of the Alpine foothills. The west of the market area, with its fine sandy soil, is particularly interesting from a geological perspective. At the sand dune deposits around the Windsberg near Freinhausen, a protected biological diversity has developed, parts of which are also lost in the municipality.
The municipality has 13 officially named municipality parts (the type of settlement is indicated in brackets ):

history
Until the church is planted
Reichertshofen was first mentioned in a document around the year 1100 in a written testimony ("N. de Rikershouen"). In 1310, a castle of Duke Ludwig IV. , Later Emperor Ludwig the Bavarian, is mentioned. The town received market rights in 1449 from Duke Heinrich the Rich from Lower Bavaria . Reichertshofen had a market court with its own magistrate rights. In 1505 it became the nursing office of the newly founded Wittelsbach principality Palatinate-Neuburg and was Protestant from 1542 to 1547 and again from 1552 until it was re-Catholicized by Wolfgang Wilhelm in 1617 .
At the height of the early modern witch persecution there was a wave of trials in 1589/1590, the outcome of which has not been recorded. After 51 of the 80 suspects had been executed in another wave of persecution between 1628 and 1630, the responsible nurse Jakob Kracker was sued in 1631 for infidelity and theft. Another execution for witchcraft occurred in 1645, while six suspects who were interrogated and tortured in 1661 were released.
Even when the principality was ruled in personal union with Bavaria from 1777 , the nursing office initially remained in place and was not abolished until 1808 when Pfalz-Neuburg was fully integrated into the Kingdom of Bavaria . In the course of the administrative reforms in Bavaria, today's political municipality was created with the municipal edict of 1818 .
19th and 20th centuries
On January 1st, 1880, Reichertshofen and 9 neighboring communities passed from the Swabian district office of Neuburg an der Donau to the district office of Ingolstadt and have been part of Upper Bavaria ever since .
