history

The place is first mentioned by name in 1183/95 as "Urahe". The place name is derived from the river name Aurach. To distinguish four places of the same name in the immediate vicinity, he received the addition of the church patron, St. Vitus (first attested in 1364 as "Veiczawrach").

In 1187 a church consecrated by Bishop Otto von Eichstätt was built on a mountain nose . The secular patron of the church was the Count of Abenberg . In 1193 the Heilsbronn Monastery gave Veitsaurach parish rights.

In the Salbuch in Eichstätt , which was created around 1300, 7 hubs , 9 fiefs, 2 Widdem estates, 2 houses and 1 mill were recorded for the place , which were subordinate to the Hochstift Eichstätt . Around 1400 there were 17 subject families: 15 courtyards were Eichstättisch, 1 courtyard belonged to the Heilig-Geist-Spital of the imperial city of Nuremberg and 1 courtyard belonged to the equipment of the Windsbacher Gottesruhkapelle . For the collegiate monastery of St. Nikolaus zu Spalt , the Salbuch of 1380, 1517 and 1549 specified a subject family in Veitsaurach that was subject to tax.

In the 16-point report of the Oberamt Windsbach from 1608, 17 teams were recorded for Veitsaurach: 1 estate was subordinate to the Council of Windsbach , 5 farmers and 10 Köblers to the Abenberg caste office in Eichstätt and 1 farmer from the imperial city of Nuremberg . There was also the parish church and the communal shepherd's house. The high court exercised the Brandenburg-Ansbach caste and city bailiff's office in Windsbach . In 1632 the place was destroyed by the Swedes in the 30 Years War . Reconstruction only began in 1655. In the Eichstätter Salbuch of 1671, 19 subject families are again recorded for Veitsaurach, 17 of which were subordinate to the Abenberg caste office, 1 to the Windsbach caste office and 1 to the imperial city of Nuremberg.

In the official description of the Lichtenau Nursing Department from 1748, 13 subject families were specified for the place, one of which was subordinate to the Nursing Department and the rest were foreign masters.

At the end of the 18th century there were 25 properties in Veitsaurach. The high court exercised the caste and city bailiff's office in Windsbach, the village and community rulership was held by the caste office in Abenberg. The landlords were the Abenberg caste office (23 properties: 4 courtyards, 1 three-quarter farm, 8 estates, 2 mills, 1 tavern , 1 little farm with baking law, 6 half houses), the hospital and Katharinenklosteramt of the imperial city of Nuremberg (1 Fünfachtelhof) and the Windsbach caste office ( 1 Gütlein). In addition to the property, there were also communal (shepherd's house) and ecclesiastical buildings (parsonage, parish church). There were 24 subject families at that time, 1 of which was Ansbachian. From 1797 to 1808 the place was under the Justice and Chamber Office Windsbach .

In 1806 Veitsaurach came to the Kingdom of Bavaria . As part of the community edict, Veitsaurach was assigned to the Bertholdsdorf tax district formed in 1808 .

Historical description

In the geographic statistical-topographic lexicon of Franconia (1804) the place is described as follows:

“Eichstätt parish village of 24 subjects in the Oberland belonging to the Abenberg maintenance and box office, but still in the Fraisch district of the Ansbach Oberamt Windsbach 1 1 ⁄ 2  hours a little west-north of Abenberg on the Aurach River, which drives a mill in it. The parish belongs to the collegiate at Spalt; it was once incorporated into it and provided by the youngest canon. At that time there is an own pastor there, and the hamlets of Brunn, Leiperslohe, Kettersbach and Lanzendorf, then the Buckemühle, are parish there. There is a subject there, like the Fraisch, Ansbachisch, all other subjects, rights and justice, including the heirs, Schmidstadt, Badstube and the shepherd's staff are Eichstättisch.
There are 2 markets every year in addition to the church consecration rights, one on St. Vitus's Day, the other on Sunday after Michaelis. In 1425, the Eichstätt bishop Johann II, a lord of Heideck, donated the tithe at the time, which was a Eichstätt fiefdom, among others to the Konrad and Heinrich, brothers from Lentersheim, in exchange for some goods at Stadel, at this time the small tithe there belongs to the parish , the big one but 2 ⁄ 3 of the collegiate in Spalt, and 1 ⁄ 3 of it to the Schwabach hospital.
