Hofmark Staufersbuch

The historically most striking thing about Staufersbuch is the Hofmark . Traces of the castle of the nobles of Staufersbuch, the later castle, the estate and the Hofmark are located opposite the church. Strong walls and the layout of the courtyard point to an early historical building. There used to be a brick entrance with an arch and a kind of courtyard walling (today the Johann Koller estate).

Originally the lords of the castle at Staufersbuch were servants of the Holnstein knights. From 1106 to 1372 the nobles of Staufersbuch ruled over the castle and the place. After that, other lords of the castle and Hofmark owners appeared, such as the Roßthaler and Pollant lords in the 16th century, the Wildensteiners and the lords of Klingenberg . In 1637, Elector Maximilian donated the Hofmark Staufersbuch to the St. Georgen Brotherhood in Munich.
