Sulzbach is surrounded by good agricultural soils, which are used in particular for growing maize.
history
Random archaeological finds suggest that Sulzbach was inhabited almost continuously from the Middle Neolithic to the early Middle Ages. The founding of today's Sulzbach falls in this last epoch, which was shaped by the Bavarians . Several documented names of places between 754 and 826 attest to this. It is stated therein that Sulzbach was in the possession of the Bavarian Duke Odilo in the first half of the 7th century . On August 8, 754, the "Villa Sulzbach" in Rottachgau was given to the Passau bishopric with the permission of Duke Tassilo . In 788/89 the priest Alto gave the church he had founded along with his property to Bishop Waltrich . Sulzbach was the first church in the area. The current state of development of the parish church is late Gothic, the altars are baroque.
In 1996 a burial ground from the 6th / 7th centuries was opened during construction. Century found, which suggests a settlement that existed long before the first documentary mention. Sulzbach was incorporated into the Passau Cathedral Monastery and, from 1188, the Vornbach Monastery . In 1803 the Vornbach monastery was secularized , in 1806 the Sulzbach parish was dissolved, but soon restored. The parish has been a member of the Ruhstorf parish association since 1974. The last pastor in the independent parish was August Wenninger.
Sulzbach was called Hofmark as early as the 13th century . In 1288 it came into the possession of the Marsbach family as a replacement for their abandonment of Marsbach Castle in Upper Austria. In 1437 the Lords of Tannberg zu Aurolzmünster acquired Sulzbach as episcopal fiefdoms and kept it until the family was completely indebted in the middle of the 17th century. At the end of the Thirty Years War, in 1648, Sulzbach was also devastated by Sweden. In 1677 Baron Kaspar von Schmidt bought the Tannberg estates including Sulzbach. In 1789 Baron Anton von Schmid sold Sulzbach to the Count von Jonner.
On January 8, 1706, numerous Sulzbach men took part in the Battle of Aidenbach (War of the Spanish Succession) on the side of the Bavarian insurgents. A stone plaque on the parish church still bears witness to the high blood toll that resulted from the devastating defeat against the Habsburg troops. In the War of the Bavarian Succession in 1778 there was probably also devastation by the Austrian troops.
The peasant liberation in the first half of the 19th century, along with the fertile land, contributed to the flourishing of the peasant class. At the turn of the century Sulzbach had a spa with six bathing cabins.
In 1811 the Sulzbach tax district was formed, which included the Eholfing chairmanship and part of the Engertsham chairmanship . The resulting community of Sulzbach was ceded in 1838 by the Griesbach regional court to the new Passau II regional court.
In April 1945 members of the US Army marched into Sulzbach.
On January 1, 1972, parts of the area of the dissolved municipality of Eglsee were incorporated. On July 1, 1972 Sulzbach was incorporated into Ruhstorf. Part of the community was reclassified to Neuhaus am Inn . This was preceded by heated discussions as to whether a complete incorporation to Neuhaus am Inn would make more sense. In 1981 the community of Ruhstorf set up a kindergarten in Sulzbach, and there is also a primary school in the village. On August 7th and 8th, 2004, the place celebrated its 1250th anniversary in a ceremony with an exhibition.
