history

Early history

Sünching is first mentioned in a document in 773 . The Sünchinger family can be traced back to the middle of the 12th to the middle of the 14th century.

To the north of the Sünching - Geiselhöring road there is a so-called Römerschanze in a wood . This is a circular structure with a diameter of about 15 meters and a depth of 2 meters. The building does not date from Roman times, but is the remainder of a high or late medieval tower. The tower was located at a crossroads of the major road in the Middle Ages, namely the east-west so-called Ochsenstraße , which meets here with a NW-SE directed street from the Regensburg area, which then continues to Dingolfing. One can assume that this fortification was built on the right bank of the Laber for the purpose of traffic monitoring. The wall foundations were completely excavated by stone robbery. There is no evidence of previous owners of the tower.

Buildings

• Sünching Castle : The first castle was probably built in the 12th / 13th centuries. Built in the 16th century by the Sünchinger family, it was first mentioned in 1395. In 1758 Joseph Franz von Seinsheim had the former Munich court architect Francois de Cuvilliés the Elder build today's octagonal moated castle. After the death of the last Countess Seinsheim, it came into the possession of her grandson, Baron von Hoenning O'Carroll . He and his family have lived in the castle ever since.
• Sünching parish church: The current St. Johannes Baptist church dates from 1700, the 58 meter high tower with a helmet roof is 200 years older and comes from one of the previous buildings. A donor's coat of arms on the tower shows Joachim von Stauf Freiherr zu Ehrenfels as the donor of the previous building, which was completed in 1502. But a Sünching church was also mentioned as a side church of the Niederalteich monastery as early as 1148 . Choir with cross yoke and three-sided cap closure. The nave has a mirrored ceiling. The new building planned in the 20th century was prevented by the patronage. The chapels show stucco work from the beginning of the 18th century.
