The little church is always closed, but there are two benches for a rest. A quiet place to pause.

Unfortunately, the church is locked. However, the altar can be photographed through a peephole. Further information: Around 1590, the farmer Veit Kammermaier from Seeb (Galli) found an image of a saint on the road next to the village and christened it St. Simon. He placed it in a small wooden chapel in the forest and placed an offering box next to it. When, following a miraculous answer to prayer, the offerings began to flow in abundance, in 1625, just a few years before the Swedish invasion, work began on building the church with the help of various benefactors. The “Hallertau Chronicler” also gave a detailed history on page 90, as did the Sulzbach “Calendar for Catholic Christians” from 1913. Around Michaelmas 1625, the church was consecrated by the auxiliary bishop of Regensburg. A tower with two bells from the year it was built originally stood next to the church, and the current turret was not added to the church until 1730. The donations of the pilgrims who flocked to the church increased the church's assets so much that St. Simon's in Aiglsbach became the church with the most capital in the entire Mainburg district. A holy mass was held here every week until 1800. A sermon was held here every year on Easter Sunday at 1 a.m. On St. Simon's Day, several neighboring parishes and their priests used to come here with the cross and a large market day was held at the same time. The church had become so dilapidated over time that in 1778 it was considered to be demolished because it was no longer worth the necessary repair costs. On April 11, 1780, the electoral government in Munich issued the order to demolish the church, but this was thwarted at the last minute and repairs were carried out in 1792. The rotting altarpiece depicting the martyrdom of the church's patron saint was replaced by a new one in 1912. The church owned the blacksmith's estate in Steinbach and the Arzenhof in Oberpindhart as saints' property. From "Local history of the parish of Pötzmes" Pastor Johann Schmid, Pötzmes, 1925
