history

Until the church is planted

Around 1100 there was a permanent castle here , which was inhabited by the servants of the Counts of Bogen . Arnold von Ruhmannsfelden fought in a tournament in Zurich in 1165 , and Gebo von Ruhmannsfelden appeared as a witness between 1184 and 1194 in a tradition from Oberalteich Abbey .

Around the middle of the 12th century a settlement was established around the castle. After the nobles von Ruhmannsfelden died out, the Pfellinger family took over the castle after 1250. After the death of the last Pfellinger, his possessions fell to the sovereign. Duke Heinrich XIII. allowed the demolition of the castle on the condition that the stones should be used after Gotteszell to expand the local monastery.

The manor with the place Ruhmannsfelden was in 1295 by the Bavarian dukes Otto III. , Ludwig III. and Stephan I. sold to the Aldersbach monastery . Around 1400, when Jakob von Degenberg was appointed Vogt over the place, it had already been raised to the market .

In 1496 the Aldersbach monastery sold the Ruhmannsfelden market to the Degenbergers, subject to redemption. This happened a few years later, and in 1503 the place was exchanged for the Gotteszell monastery . Only the church in Ruhmannsfelden, which was a branch of the Geiersthal parish until 1652 , remained in the possession of Aldersbach Monastery.

There were disputes with Gotteszell Monastery, which was much closer than Aldersbach, because Ruhmannsfelden wanted to enforce its market rights. In 1522 the market went up in flames.

The place was part of the Electorate of Bavaria , but belonged to the closed Hofmark Gotteszell . In 1658 Ruhmannsfelden also came to the Gotteszell Monastery in church terms. After the Thirty Years' War there was a dispute with Viechtach about the debts incurred during wartime. In 1673 the government restored peace and expressly forbade the Viechtachers from contemptuously calling the Ruhmannsfeldeners "Hofmärkler".

Until the secularization of 1803 Ruhmannsfelden belonged to the Gotteszell Monastery with land, lower jurisdiction and pastoral care. Ruhmannsfelden had a market court, which, however, could only enforce a small part of its rights. Around 1723 it became a parish with the right of occupation by the Gotteszell Monastery. From 1806, many places from the Geiersthal parish were re-parish to Ruhmannsfelden. After the dissolution of the Hofmark, the current municipality was created in the course of administrative reforms in the Kingdom of Bavaria with the municipal edict of 1818 .

19th to 21st century

In the years 1820, 1889 and 1894 fires raged in Ruhmannsfelden and largely destroyed the old building fabric. In 1890, with the opening of the Gotteszell – Viechtach railway line , the market was connected to the railway. The more than 300-year tradition of hand-printed woven goods production continues to this day.
