history

Until the church is planted

The community was first mentioned in 865 in a document from Niederaltaich Monastery . King Ludwig the German confirmed the possession of Scellinaha to the monastery . The name is likely to be a combination of the Old High German "scellan" (sound, rush) and "aha" (water, brook). In the 12th century it was called Schelnahe , in the 13th century Schellenach , at the beginning of the 14th century Schellnachkirchen , then Schellnach and finally Schöllnach .

From 1306 it came into the possession of the Bavarian dukes as a princely knight man's fief and from 1311 probably had the status of a Hofmark . Its owners were the Puchberger, from 1375 the Rüd, then in 1429 the Kafringer, the Frauenberger and from 1445 the Reutorner. Under the latter, in the course of the development of the country between 1445 and 1662, the establishment of craftsmen and day laborers was permitted. In 1523 Johannes Aventinus Schölnach drew on the first map of Bavaria. In 1635 the parish of Schöllnach was established. In 1649 600 people fell victim to the plague .

From 1719 to 1774 the Barons von Vieregg ruled over Schöllnach. Among them, Schöllnach received an increase of more than 50 goods on the occasion of the destruction of the Klebstein headquarters near Schönberg in 1739. Most recently, the barons of Pfetten created “colonies” with Birket (1790) and Lehenreut (1793). In 1808 the Schöllnach rule comprised 155 subjects. Most of the land belonged to the castle economy.

In 1818 the political community of Schöllnach was established.

19th and 20th centuries

It was not until the end of the knight's tenure in 1833 that ownership changed. The residents of the ruling village and the colonies were able to enlarge their property and establish themselves economically.

On July 31, 1914, the opening of the Hengersberg – Eging section was celebrated at the Gasthof zur Post, with Schöllnach having a station on the new railway line to Deggendorf . The telegraphic message of the general mobilization ended the party.

In 1954 the new parish church was built and in 1958 the new schoolhouse. In 1966 the village was elevated to a market according to Bavarian municipal law. From 1970 to 1972 the secondary school as well as the secondary and special school were established.

As early as 1960 Schöllnach joined the group of tourist resorts. In 1977 it received state recognition as a resort.

Between 1988 and 2018 the market grew from 4,357 to 4,844 by 487 inhabitants or 11.2%. On December 31, 2004, Schöllnach had 5,129 inhabitants.
