Around 1037, Walperich von Fahlenbach brought a relic of St. Castulus here from a cruise. St. Kastulus is revered as the patron saint of farmers and shepherds. This Walperich von Fahlenbach was probably a follower of the powerful counts of Moosburg, whose house monastery was also dedicated to St. Kastulus. At St. Kastl there was probably still a castle or a manor. The village of Stöffl below St. Kastl - derived from the name of the saint Stephanus - probably originated from this courtyard and was an administrative center until the Thirty Years' War when Stöffl was completely destroyed. This function was then taken over by the market and court location Reichertshofen.
