St. Peter Church, Aldersbach

The first historical mention of a settlement with the name Aldarespah comes from the middle of the 8th century in the traditional codex of the Mondsee Monastery. The alleged first mention of a church in Aldersbach from this period is based on a misunderstood note from the early 14th century, which has been handed down in the oldest account book of the Aldersbach monastery. In 1120 the first monastery in Aldersbach (St. Peter) was founded by Augustinian canons. The name Alderbach was already in use around 1140, a Latinized form can be found in written documents from the early 16th century as Adalogeriopagus. The name is derived from the personal name Althar or Aldar and the Old High German pah or pach for a brook.Aldersbach belonged to the Landshut Rent Office and the Vilshofen Regional Court of the Electorate of Bavaria. The Aldersbach Abbey owned an open Hofmark here, which was secularized in 1803. In 1806 the churches in Weng and on the Bernhardsberg were sold and demolished. In the course of the administrative reforms in Bavaria, the municipality of Aldersbach came into being with the municipal edict of 1818.
