history

A Bronze Age barrow was excavated in the Rocksdorfer Flur and among other things a fibula was found.

The place is first mentioned in 1129. In 1144 a Ludwick de "Rogstorff" appears as a Eichstätter documentary witness. Around 1310/30 the place name appears in the form of "Rackersdorff" in Eichstätter loan books when tithing is awarded, and in 1370/75 as "Rokstorff". Rocksdorf estates belonged to the castle of Niedersulzbürg belonging to the Lords von Stein , after their extinction the Gundelfinger and Hohenfelser, until 1403 Schweiker von Gundelfingen sold the fortress of Niedersulzbürg with all its memberships to the Wolfsteiner brothers Hans, Albrecht, Wilhelm and Wigalus. In 1438, Wigalus / Wigolas von Wolfstein bought goods in several places, including Rocksdorf, to round off its territory. Finally, around 1732, Sulzbürg Rocksdorf with 14 “teams” belonged to the Wolfstein office. Soon afterwards, in 1740, the family died out with the last Count of Wolfstein, Christian Albrecht; the property came as a settled imperial fief (1769 also the allodial property ) to the ducal Bavaria, which set up the Sulzbürg-Pyrbaum cabinet rulers to manage these goods, including those of the village of Rocksdorf. At the end of the Old Kingdom , around 1800, Rocksdorf consisted of 20 courtyards of different sizes and was subject to the high and low courts of the ducal-Bavarian, lastly Electoral Palatinate-Bavarian cabinet rule Sulzbürg.

In the new Kingdom of Bavaria (1806), the Forst tax district was formed between 1810 and 1820 , to which the village of Forst itself and Rocksdorf as well as the Birkenmühle , the Braunmühle , the Braunshof , the Dietlhof , Greißelbach and the Richthof belonged. With the community edict of 1818, Rocksdorf became part of the community of Kruppach . This remained until the regional reform in Bavaria , when the municipality of Rocksdorf was incorporated into the municipality of Mühlhausen on January 1, 1972 and Rocksdorf has since been one of 24 officially designated parts of the municipality.

Architectural monuments

In addition to the parish church of St. Elisabeth, two residential buildings are considered to be monuments, of which the house at Sulzbach 2 is attributed to the 19th century, while the house at Freystädter Str. 18 can essentially be dated to the 13th century based on findings during the renovation in 2014/17 . The nave wall has been preserved from the Romanesque layout of the church. The choir with cross vaults is located in the east tower, which was added in place of the apse in the 17th century and has an eight-sided pointed spire. The altar from the middle of the 17th century has two "strangely twisted" columns; the altarpiece shows the Lord's Supper. The figure of St. Elisabeth above the altar. The pulpit was built around the middle of the 17th century. Two bells from Nuremberg from 1617 and 1758 hang in the tower. Before the Reformation , which was introduced around 1540 , the church was supplied by a chaplain as a branch of Kerkhofen . The few Catholics who moved to Rocksdorf during the Bavarian period belonged to the Catholic parish Sulzbürg with the parish church "To the painful Mother of God" built there in 1756. Georg Fürst, born in Rocksdorf in 1846, was a clergyman in the Eichstätt diocese.
