geography
Geographical location
Winhöring is located in the foothills of the Alps in the region of southeast Upper Bavaria , on the edge of the Lower Bavarian hill country in the triangle of mouth between Isen and Inn . The place is about 90 km east of the state capital Munich , 85 km southwest of Passau and about 70 km northwest of Salzburg , in the immediate vicinity of the district towns of Altötting and Mühldorf am Inn in the Inn-Salzach tourist region .
The town center lies on a plain between the Isen and Inn valleys. North of the Isen, the tertiary hill country (wood country) rises within the town limits to up to 470 m above sea level. NN and forms the northern border of the Isar-Inn gravel plate . Some districts, primarily courtyards and hamlets, are already located in the hilly country and thus geographically separated from the Isen and Inn valleys.
The Isen floods regularly. Before flood protection measures were implemented, this often led to major damage to the buildings, for example in 1954 (see also flood 1954 ).

history
Until recently it was assumed that Winhöring was first mentioned as "Uuiniheringa" in 953 as a papal property. In documents from the bishops of Freising , however, a donation in Winhöring is mentioned as early as February 13, 816. For a long time Winhöring was the seat of a Hofmark that had belonged to the Counts of Toerring- Jettenbach since 1721 . Winhöring became an independent political municipality in the course of the administrative reforms in Bavaria in 1818 . Up until the post-war period, Winhöring was dominated by agriculture, with only a few larger production companies located in the Eisenfelden district. Today Winhöring is mainly a residential community with a strong club life and many families.

Vicarage
The parsonage, which is worth seeing and unique in Eastern Bavaria , was built in 1728 by the pastor Stadler. The associated economy was demolished at the end of the 1960s and instead a house was built for the pastor, without showing any sense of the beautiful ensemble. Nevertheless, the courtyard with a wall facing Neuöttinger Strasse was essentially preserved. The buildings on the north side u. a. a two-storey open arbor with domed turret have been renovated in an exemplary manner in recent years and serve as meeting and group rooms for the parish. In addition, the community library could be housed in the premises. - Field church
- Frauenbühl Castle
- Castle keep
- Palace chapel in castle
- Ruins of the Unterholznerburg in Burg
