history

Around 1185 the Benediktbeuern monastery began to clear and settle the previously deserted area east of the Walchensee. According to Karl Meichelbeck , archivist and chronicler of the monastery, the clearing activity in Sachsenbach began. "Saherbach" is mentioned for the first time in 1294 in the monastery s book. At that time there was only one farm that controlled 100 cheeses a year for the monastery. In 1597 the farm was divided between the two brothers Georg and Melchior Schadenbacher and a lottery decision was made as to which part was awarded to whom. The farm north of the eponymous brook fell to Georg, today's “Irglbauer”, house number 1 in Jachenau. Melchior took over the southern courtyard, today's “Seppenbauer” at number 2.

The Sachbachers never had a fishing right on the Walchensee, but they had always had the hunting supervision over the monastic forests.

Sachsenbach can only be reached by car via State Road 2072 (Urfeld - Jachenau). However, state road 2072 is closed to public traffic from the “Zwerchweg” junction 1.5 km west of Jachenau; Residents in Sachsenbach and residents of Jachenau have a special permit.

May 3, 1945

Weilerkapelle von Sachsenbach
Marterl in memory of the deaths of Elisabeth and Ruth Schwink on May 3, 1945 above Saxony

On the state road 2072, approx. 600 m above Sachsenbach in the direction of Jachenau, a Marterl reminds of the tragic events of May 3, 1945. Elisabeth Schwink and her daughter Ruth spent the last years of the war in the relatively protected Jachenau. On May 3, Elisabeth Schwink, her 14-year-old daughter Ruth and her friend Johanna Pfund, daughter of the farmer Peter Pfund, hiked over Berg and Fieberkapelle to Sachsenbach. On the saddle they met on tree barriers and young, drunken SS - soldiers . Frau Schwink tried to appease the fanatical soldiers and advised them to go home, as the situation would not end well here. The women crossed the barriers and moved on to Sachsenbach, where the girls stayed with the “Irglbauer”, while Mrs. Schwink continued towards Urfeld and contacted the approaching Americans there in order to protect the Jachenau and its population from damage. In the course of the afternoon there was a brief skirmish between the Americans and the SS soldiers above Sachsenbach. The Americans withdrew, and calm returned. The three women made their way home. When they were in the open field within shooting range of the SS battle outposts, they were attacked by their fire. Elisabeth and Ruth Schwink were fatally wounded, Johanna Pfund seriously injured with three shots. Nevertheless she pulled herself up, ran back to Sachsenbach and collapsed in front of the Irgl farmer's farm. This and American paramedics took care of the first aid and the transport to Walchensee, where Johanna was successfully operated on by the doctors of a convalescent company by candlelight. The Marterl was built by the husband and father Otto Schwink.

Filming location for "Wickie and the strong men"

Evi Sachsenbacher-Stehle from Reit im Winkl , German cross-country skier and biathlete of the national team , has her genealogical roots with the “Seppenbauer” in Sachsenbach. In the line of her ancestors, it was Kaspar Sachsenbacher von Urfeld am Walchensee who went to “Reut im Winkl” as a hunter in 1751.

In 1959, the Sachsenbach Bay on Lake Walchensee was used as the location for a film with a historical theme for the Tales of the Vikings series starring Christopher Lee . In the summer of 2008, the director Michael Herbig shot the real-life version of Wickie and the Strong Men in the Bay of Saxony . For this purpose, a Viking village with additional equipment was built there. After a thorough Europe-wide search, this location was chosen.
