history

Unterweikertshofen Castle (2020) - front
Unterweikertshofen Castle ( Wening )

Unterweikertshofen is first mentioned in a document in 1126 as "Wicharteshoven" . In 1126, a foundation letter from the Undenstorff monastery (Indersdorf) mentions that the lord of the castle Ulrich von Weickertzhouen donated his estate in Oberroth to the monastery. Around 1138 a "Wichertshofen" was called. In the middle of the 13th century the castle is at the Schiltberg office. In 1427 the place had a village court. From 1440 there was a Hofmark in Unterweikertshofen . The Unterweikertshofen Castle was rebuilt in 1616 by Sebastian von Adelzhausen instead of a Gothic complex. The lords of the court were the Counts of Preysing (from 1625), Khuen von Belas (1719) and the Counts of Hundt (from 1799). From 1707 a small pilgrimage under the name "Madonna in the Beech" was made in Unterweikertshofen for half a century.

On July 1, 1972, the community gave up its independence. Together with three other communities from the Dachau district and the Kleinberghofen community from the Aichach district , it formed the new Erdweg community.

Attractions

Filial church of St. Gabinus
  • Filialkirche St. Gabinus : The Filialkirche St. Gabinus in Unterweikertshofen was first mentioned in 1473. But it should have existed as early as 1315 as one of the four branch churches of the parish of Sittenbach. The current church was built in 1608. Today's interior was completed around 1700. In 1709, the octagonal central building was built, which makes St. Gabinus a remarkable church in the region in terms of architecture and art history. In 1840 the building was given a new tower because lightning struck the church tower in 1839. In 1910 the nave was extended. During the renovation in 1910, the tower's former pointed spire was replaced by an onion hood with a lantern attached. In 2008 the church was given the 4th bell. In 2014/15 the church was renovated inside and out
