    Tips

    October 16, 2021

    Starting from the 6th century, the Dürnbuch forest was owned by the respective ruling house. It owes its size and cohesion to the fact that over the centuries its use was "placed outside of public use" (= forestry). The residents were granted legal rights to take wood to meet their daily needs, but clearing was forbidden in principle after the Bavarian land conquest ended.

    The Agilolfinger appeared as the first owner. After the fall of Duke Tassilo III. in 788 the forest fell to Charlemagne. In 1180 the Wittelsbachers, who in the following centuries liked to organize lavish hunts there, initially received the forest as a fief. In 1806, the timber extraction rights were replaced and the "lawyers" received forest land as compensation. In 1923, in the course of the replacement of the monarchy, the western half went to the Wittelsbach Compensation Fund. The eastern half became state forest.
