history

The earliest excavations in the area indicate settlement as early as the Neolithic Age .
To the east of the village there are fire graves from Roman times in the valley floor.

Sallach was first mentioned in 1200 as Sala , which can mean either a manor house (hall) or a settlement near the (Sal) pastures . The village was an old property of the Counts of Scheyern . When Count Otto von Scheyern-Wittelsbach became Duke of Bavaria in 1180, his son Ludwig founded the Bayerdilling caste office with Sallach as a border customs office. A large part of Sallachs remained in the possession of the von Wittelsbach and Scheyern families for a long time. Later (in 1250 the border customs post was relocated to the Wittelsbach town of Rain) other gentlemen also had possessions in Sallach, such as the Niederschönenfeld Monastery , the St. Walburg Benedictine Monastery in Eichstätt , the Thierhaupten Monastery , the Gempfing parish church and the Sallach and Heimpersdorf branch churches .

The Sankt Ulrich branch church is a branch of the parish Sankt Vitus in Gempfing.

The independent municipality of Sallach belonged to the district of Neuburg an der Donau and was added to the district of Donau-Ries on July 1, 1972 when it was dissolved in the course of the regional reform in Bavaria , which was called the district of Nördlingen-Donauwörth until May 1, 1973 , and incorporated into the city of Rain on the same day.
