history
Barrows from the Bronze and Hallstatt Ages were found in the “Hundskuchel” forest department . Other finds come from the Neolithic Age .
Before 1133/35 a local nobleman named Englimar was mentioned by "Wizzindorf". The aristocratic seat near the church has been lost, only the church from the late 12th century has survived.
In 1957 a land consolidation was carried out. In 1983 the hamlet with its 31 inhabitants consisted of six full-time agricultural businesses and one part-time business.
Catholic Church of St. Margareta
The Romanesque church of St. Margareta (formerly St. John the Baptist and St. John (Evangelist) ), built towards the end of the 12th century, stands on a small hill. Construction workers from the Regensburg Schottenkloster were also involved in the construction . In 1402 Weißendorf became a branch of St. Salvator Bettbrunn . Until 1610 the church was surrounded by a fortified cemetery, which in times of war also contained stables for cattle. The Romanesque west portal has two lions on the two outer capitals and eight braids in its arch. The round arches on the outer apse sit on 23 head consoles, where human and animal heads alternate. The onion dome comes from more recent times. In 1723 the church was redesigned in baroque style . The high altar, created in the late Rococo , shows St. Margaret of Antioch as church patroness; it comes from the Altmannstein artist Johann Georg Günther (the previous altar from the late Gothic period came to Bettbrunn). Günther also created the statue of the church patroness on the side wall (around 1760). Hans Sinninger from Ingolstadt made a Madonna and Child around 1500. The gallery is supported by two Romanesque columns decorated with figures.
Around the church there is a legend about two giants, which owes its origin to a Roman gravestone in the church of Tholbath .
