history

The village in the Eisenbachtal does not appear in documents until the 11th century, but the settlement is certainly much older than the first written evidence suggests. The first written evidence comes from the 11th century, when "Friderich de Rorbach" appears in a document as a witness for the cathedral monastery in Augsburg and thus proves the existence of a local nobility. The place name has not changed aloud since it was first mentioned and means "settlement on a marshy brook lined with reed".

A brick factory dates from the late Roman Empire and was opened in 1925 in the “Ziegelacker” corridor between Rohrbach and Eurasburg. Here, in addition to a similar workshop in Stätzling, was the only previously known production facility for late antique pottery in the province of Raetia.

Around 1000 AD, Welf II is said to have renewed the Altomünster monastery, which had been destroyed by the Hungarians, and furnished it with goods, according to the words of Otloh, the author of the biography of St. Alto, believe it. These goods also included property in Rohrbach, which in the 13th and 14th centuries consisted of a farm, eight fiefs and two quarter fiefs.

Until 1863 the village belonged to the parish Mering. It has its own church, which is located on a hill and so structurally protrudes over the other houses. According to a document from 1520, it was originally dedicated to St. Aegidius and St. Walburga, but the patronage of Maria Magdalena was celebrated as early as the 19th century, a day on which the Friedberg predicature beneficiary made the obligation to read a St. Fair has. Despite belonging to the parish of Mering, the Rohrbachers mostly went to church in the nearby Bachern. After they were assigned to the chaplain branch in Ried in 1834, they offered to contribute 1233 guilders to the building of the new church in Ried, 450 guilders to the parish pledge of Mering and 25 guilders to the sacristan in Ried, but to the pastor of Bachern To pay 1 bushel and 3 Metzen of rye annually and to compete with the cult buildings in Bachern. As a result, a re-parish of Rohrbach from Mering to Bachern was initiated, which was carried out in 1863 by a royal resolution and an episcopal decree.

At around the same time, Rohrbach and its 24 families regained communal independence, but remained in the Bachern tax district, where the shared schoolhouse was located.

In 1970 it was connected to Ottmaring and in 1979 it was incorporated into the city of Friedberg. With the construction of local roads and new buildings, Rohrbach is now presented in a contemporary look.
