Rott am Inn is named after the river Rott, which flows into the Inn east of Feldkirchen. The document form "ad Rota" (769) and "flumen qui dictur Rota" (773), as well as the dialectal form Roud refer to "Rotaha", which means something like "red stream". The founding of the Benedictine monastery by Count Palatine Kuno I and his wife Uta von Dießen is documented in 1081. The construction of a Romanesque basilica is documented for the 12th century, and in 1142 Pope Innocent II granted the monastery the right to free abbot elections. In 1485, on the occasion of the 400th anniversary of the monastery, Johannes Held had the art-historically significant donor's tomb built, which is now in the church vestibule. The monastery Rott a. Inn has extensive land holdings including in the Bavarian Forest and in Tyrol.
