description

The manor is a large rectangular complex in which there is a two-winged manor house from 1742, the former brewery - a hipped roof building with an open bell tower roof turret - a large stable building and other smaller agricultural buildings. On the dominant hipped roof building is the coat of arms of the Rebdorf prelate Erhard Räm with the year 1726. On the ground floor you can see columns and pillars with ribbed vaults . Baroque doors, some with Jura limestone walls , have been preserved throughout the building . The mansion is a two-wing two-story building with flat gable roofs . Originally it consisted only of the north wing from 1715, to which the Eichstätter court building director Gabriel de Gabrieli , who also built in Rebdorf monastery , added another wing in 1740. The “Weizhall” of the property is older, dating from around 1609. The courtyard is complemented by a driveway with lots of old trees, a baroque gate entrance and walls.

history

At Sperberslohe, a 300 m long stone dam is evidence of the course of the Limes .

On the Alb plateau north and south of the Altmühl there are a number of manors whose origins go back around 1000 years. The Sperberslohe wasteland , first mentioned in 1159 as the property of Eichstätter Bishop Konrad von Morsbach , is probably an older clearing property from the "Sperberwald". In the document of August 1, 1159, Emperor Friedrich Barbarossa gave the place "Rebedorf" (= Rebdorf near Eichstätt) together with the Sperberslohe estate to the bishop for his loyalty and on the intercession of Empress Beatrice of Burgundy , whose chaplain Konrad von Morsbach was before his election as bishop . From this point in time until the secularization of 1802, the fortunes of Sperberslohe remained closely linked to the Augustinian Canons of Rebdorf , which drew the economic benefits from the estate. Rebdorf abbots also came again and again to spend the summer in Sperberslohe. After secularization, the estate first came to the Grand Duchy of Tuscany until it became royal Bavarian in 1806 and belonged to the Eichstätt Regional Court / Rent Office. Bavaria sold the estate to private customers in 1806. The landowners changed frequently; only from 1867 is the farm continuously owned by a family.

In 1808, Sperberslohe was incorporated into the Bavarian tax district Workerszell . Through the community edict of 1818, the wasteland came to the community of Rupertsbuch. In 1823 the estate was managed by Alexander Ritter von Schöberg. In 1830 the farm had two residents. With the municipality of Rupertsbuch, Sperberslohe was incorporated into Schernfeld during the regional reform in Bavaria in 1971. In 1983 five people lived on the estate.

In 1987 the Federal Government announced plans to build a peacekeeping MIM-104 Patriot double missile position with at least 48 guided missiles in Sperberslohe . There was strong opposition to this in the region. With the fall of the “ Iron Curtain ”, the project became superfluous.

Today the estate is a riding stables with its own horse breeding . Beef and veal are also marketed directly here.

In 2008 a new court chapel made of Jura stones was built. In terms of church, Sperberslohe has belonged to the Catholic parish Rupertsbuch, which was established at that time, since 1749 . The children from Sperberslohe went to school there.
