history

Deining belonged to the Reichsgutkomplex Neumarkt and since the late Middle Ages the seat of the "Lower Hofmark" of the Neumarkt mayor's office has existed there. According to a document dated June 16, 1278, Gotfried von Heideck was entitled to the bailiwick of Theingen , which previously held the noble free von Holnstein . According to a document dated June 6, 1291, Dietrich von Teiningen is mentioned as a witness as the Ministeriale der Heidecker . A hundred years later (1391) there is talk of a fiefdom of the von Heideck family. The Rohrenstätter can be found here around 1300, because in 1322 Friedrich von Rohrenstatt sold a mill in Deining to the Neumarkt Hospital . After this Rohrenstätter one finds Erasmus and Martin Truchseß von Waltersheim as owners of Deining. The Schwepper men sat here in the 14th century . Hartung von Schweppermann is said to have been the local owner in 1345, Heinrich Schweppermann is mentioned in a document in 1387 and his brother Ulrich on March 12, 1396. Deining came to Ittelhofer on the marriage route through Heinrich Schweppermann's sister . A Konrad Ittelhofer is mentioned in 1401 as a witness for the Kastl monastery , Rüdiger Ittelhofer appears several times between 1419 and 1426. Then J. Pertolzhofer (1463), Wolf Sazenhofer and Heinrich Steiner (1468) held the Hofmark . Then the Ittelhofer reside here again, named Friedrich Ittelhofer (1488–1507) and Hans Ittelhofer (1507–1518), then Erasmus (1535) and Jakob Ittelhofer (1539) follow as heirs, and finally the brothers Ulrich, Ludwig and Anton sold Ittelhofer gave the estate to her brother-in-law Eberhart von Roßtal and his wife Cäcilia.

Due to the turmoil of the Reformation , Hans von Ittelhofen sold his goods to Deining on May 5, 1544 to Elector Friedrich III. and the last goods were sold by Hans Adam Ittelhofer zu Hain on March 30, 1595 to the Elector Friedrich IV . Around 1600 Michael Liedl acquired the property that "had previously been sold"; Since he was not aristocratic, he had to purchase freedom of the landed people. In 1620 he sold the estate to Sigismund Theophilus Richius from Regensburg. In the course of the recatholicization , his heir, Anna Cordula Richius, had to sell Deining to Kaspar Geiß (s) ler in 1652. However, the castle burned down due to the events of the Thirty Years War . In 1692, Freiherr Johann Heinrich Franz von Löwenthal, truchess and forester at Neumarkt, bought the estate and had the castle rebuilt. He was followed by Johann Andreas Felix von Löwenthal (1740) and Felix von Löwenthal (1760). Johann Nepomuk von Löwenthal was the last of this family to hold Deining until 1828; under him Deining became a first class patrimonial court . Johann Nepomuk von Löwenthal auf Deining is the author of the "History of the Mayor's Office and the City of Neumarkt" published in Munich in 1805.

In 1830 August von Haubner became the owner. The subsequent landlord, Count von Holnstein, offered it to the State of Bavaria for purchase and King Ludwig I approved the purchase, but lent it to Anton Baron von Gumppenberg in 1844 , who had to surrender patrimonial jurisdiction to the state on July 2, 1848.

From 1844 the castle belonged to the Gumppenberg – Oberbrennberg line . It is worth mentioning from this family Friederike von Gumppenberg, who was the court lady of the Crown Princess and later Queen Marie of Bavaria until her marriage in 1857 with her cousin Ludwig von Gumppenberg from Deining . Because of her attractive appearance, King Ludwig I had Joseph Karl Stieler paint a portrait of her, which was included in the king's beauty gallery .

The Gumppenberg family had to sell the castle in 1961 due to large debts, and it has been privately owned since then.
