Until 1812, Weigelshofen belonged to the mother parish of Eggolsheim. On December 20, 1812, the parish was completed in Drosendorf am Eggerbach. The desire to have their own church was very old in Weigelshofen. It was the only community in the Eggerbachgrund that had not become a parish. After a failed attempt in 1920/21, the municipal council was persuaded in January 1949 to start building the chapel again. The groundbreaking ceremony took place on May 25 of the same year.
