history

The local noble family of the Ebersdorfers has been proven here since the early 12th century. These were based on the Eberburg . In 1480 Jakob Kemnather zu Ebermannsdorf is named with the lower seat as the fiefdom of his sister Agnes, widow of Jakob Kemnather zu Ebermannsdorf. So a new seat was built next to the old castle. According to the Landsassen register of 1484, Karl Zanter zu Rieden and Ebermannsdorf are based here. In 1499, Wolfgang Fuchssteiner is the owner of the Electoral Palatinate fiefdom Ebermannsdorf. The lords of Fuchsstein have been recorded here since 1501. In 1539, Dr. Johann von Fuchsstein the compulsory state compulsory. But in 1530 Friedrich Schwarz was already mentioned on the country estate. In 1541 the heirs of Dietrich Schwarz are here and in 1549 Hans Dietrich and Heinrich Schwarz zu Haselbach and Ebermannsdorf are named here. After the death of Georg Wolf Schwarz in 1602 the Hofmark was given to the Privy Councilor by Elector Friedrich IV. Michael Loefen awarded for services rendered. Two years later he also received Heimhof . After his death († April 30, 1620) his son Hans Michael von Loefen took over the Hofmark. In 1674 Friedrich Sigmund von Loefen is named as the owner of Ebermannsdorf and Heimhof. His daughter Julie Therese and her husband Baron von Zeller, Landrichter zu Amberg, then took over the Hofmark.

Around 1721, Josef von Dyrr (Dürr) from Munich took over this property from the heirs of Friedrich Siegmund von Loefen. In 1748, Sebald Kazner, forester in Waldmünchen , who married the daughter Maria Ottilia of Josef von Dyrr, resides here. In 1751 Jakob von Loefen, who had married the second daughter Maria Ursula of Josef von Dyrr, was enfeoffed with Ebermannsdorf. In 1786 he was followed by Xaver von Simlern, related to von Dyrr on his mother's side. The allod connected to the castle was placed under administration after the death of Josef von Dyrr due to high debts; the main believer, Baron von Thünefeld, claimed sole ownership and sold the property to Karl Freiherr von Gugomes in 1787. In 1793 a court councilor commission appeared in Ebermannsdorf, which wanted to achieve a comparison between Karl von Gugomes and Xaver von Simlern; Finally, Karl von Gugomes sold his allod to Xaver von Simlern and Ebermannsdorf was again in one hand. The Simler remained in the possession of Ebermannsdorf until 1873. The patrimonial jurisdiction was withdrawn in 1814, but in 1818 Xaver von Simlern received the right to establish a second class patrimonial court and on June 28, 1818 Ebermannsdorf appeared with a local court in the Amberg district court. Since 1972 the castle has been owned by a branch of the Barons von Eyb family .

The current castle is, as the year "1723" shows, a baroque building from the early 18th century. It was built under the owner of the Hofmark, Johann Josef von Dyrr, using the old wall stock according to plans by Ignaz Anton Gunetzrhainer . It is an elongated two-storey solid building with a hipped roof , a central risalit with a mansard roof . A transverse building with a mansard roof and a stair tower and a hipped roof faces the castle church. The castle building has a plaster structure. The complex is closed off by a castle wall, also with plaster structure, basket arch gates and a niche figure. The castle was renovated in 1977/78.

The former castle church, now a subsidiary church of St. Johannes Baptist, is also part of the complex. It is a hall building with a mansard hipped roof, with a drawn-in tower, which is covered by a tower dome. It also has a segmented gable portal and a plaster structure and was built according to plans by Ignaz Anton Gunetzrhainer 1721-23.
