location

Saulburg is located in the Bavarian Forest about five kilometers south of Wiesenfelden on a prominent mountain ledge.

history

In the traditional code of Windberg Monastery , which began before 1150 and ends before 1191, a Heinrich de Sulperge is mentioned, which is also the first written mention of Saulburg. For centuries, Saulburg has been named in the documents Sulperge , Suleberch or Saulperch , which originally means " pillar mountain ".

Saulburg Castle from around 1150 to 1190 is still defining the townscape today. The Hofmark Saulburg had an eventful history. With a drawing of lots on June 29, 1429, which took place on the basis of the Pressburg arbitration award of April 26, 1429, the Saulburg fortress came to Duke Wilhelm III. of Bavaria .

The municipality of Saulburg was subordinate to the district court Mitterfels and later belonged to the district and district of Bogen . In the course of the regional reform in Bavaria , Mayor Ring expressed skepticism in a letter to the Ministry of the Interior regarding possible amalgamation of the municipalities. The Saulburgers saw an administrative community with similarly structured neighboring communities as a lesser evil . A connection to the municipality of Parkstetten was considered most likely , and a connection to the municipality of Kirchroth was also expected. On May 1, 1978, the community of Saulburg was largely incorporated into the community of Wiesenfelden, while the community parts Aufroth, Neumühl and Neuroth came to the community of Kirchroth.
