Here at this point near the Danube and the old river crossing (ford) there was a village of the Celts about 2000 years ago. The settlement later came into the possession of the Niedermünster nunnery in Regensburg.
In the past, three smaller Romanesque church buildings stood on the site of today's parish church.

The parish church of the Assumption is the oldest church in Deggendorf. It is located in the Lower Suburb and thus on the oldest settlement area in the city.

Today's church building of the Assumption of Mary is the result of around 400 years of construction from the late Middle Ages to the end of the 19th century. The church is mainly shaped by the baroque period.

The patronage "Maria (or in another spelling :) Assumption" of this Deggendorf church refers to one of the many days of commemoration or feast days in honor of the Mother of God Maria. It goes back to the feast of their physical acceptance into heaven, which the Church celebrates annually on August 15th.
In many rural areas it is customary that on this day herbal bundles (called "Kruggweusch" in the Rhenish dialect) are collected by the population and blessed in the festival service.
