Parish Church of St. Michael On June 13, 1441, the Regensburg Bishop Friedrich von Parsberg separated the previous branch church of St. Michael in Köfering from the parish of Alteglofsheim and made it a separate parish. During the Löwler War in 1491, the church and the rectory were badly damaged. In 1569, the Lerchenfeld family acquired the Köfering moated castle, and under their wing the parish church of St. Michael was built in 1618 by the master builder Hans Schön. The castle and church in Köfering were badly damaged during the Thirty Years' War. The church was then demolished in 1717, and all that remained of the old church was the tower with a domed roof on the west side, which was then integrated into the new church building. At the end of the 18th century, a new rectory was finally built. The first structural change was the octagonal pyramid roof that the tower received in 1879/80 to replace the damaged dome roof. In 1930/31 the church was extended to the west by 3.90 meters because it had become too small. Originally the church tower was to be demolished and rebuilt as part of the extension. After much discussion, however, the design was changed and a new church tower with a dome roof was built on the south side next to the presbytery. Framed by two columns, the altarpiece shows the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. The altarpiece is flanked by two figures: on the right a bishop with a book and crosier, on the left it could be Saint Ewald with the attributes of a sword and palm branch. The left side altar is decorated with a crescent moon Madonna triumphantly crushing the head of the snake, to her left stands Saint Notburga and to her right Saint Joseph with the baby Jesus. The right side altar shows Saint Wenceslas in armor with a lance and shield, on the left is St. Theresa of Avila, on the right St. Wenceslas again in royal robes. Source: Church guide

Köfering Castle The first moated castle on the Pfatter was probably built in the 12th century. The Köfering family was first mentioned in the middle of the 12th century. Around 1300, the castle was owned by Eckprecht von Haidau, who gave it to the Bishopric of Regensburg in 1307 in order to receive it as a fief from the bishop. Other owners of the castle were Otto Zenger, Albrecht von Abensberg, Heinrich Nothaft von Mangolding and Scheuer. In 1427, Dietrich von Stauf took over the castle in Köfering by exchange. On December 26, 1491, the Köfering fortress was besieged and destroyed by the Bavarian Duke Albrecht IV with 1,000 soldiers during the Löwler League uprising, in which the castle owner Hieronymus von Stauf took part. The Counts of Lerchenfeld have owned the moated castle since 1569. The castle was damaged in the Thirty Years' War and rebuilt in its current form from 1680 to 1720. Renovation began in 1980/81. The moated castle is an irregular, baroque, three-storey three-wing complex with mansard hipped roofs, an entrance projection with portal, ground floor arcades and a staircase with a mansard hipped roof. The White Hall with inlaid parquet and the chapel are worth seeing. The castle complex consists of a central projection, to which only a north wing is connected. To the west there is another wing with protruding corner projections, and to the south the one-storey former stable building is attached. A three-arched stone bridge leads over the walled moat, which is still preserved, and is the only access to the castle. Source: Excerpts from www.wikipedia.de

Gebelkofen Castle The moated castle was built as a moated castle by the Lords of Gebelkofen. The castle was first mentioned in 1200. At the end of the 14th century it became the property of the Auer von Brennberg. In 1553 it was purchased by Kaspar Lerchenfelder von Straubing and has been privately owned by the Lerchenfelder family ever since. The castle was damaged in the Thirty Years' War, destroyed in the 17th century and rebuilt in 1750. In 1934 a roof fire damaged the castle. In the 1990s the castle was extensively renovated and now serves as a residential building. The moated castle is a four-winged pond house with three floors, hipped roofs and a rectangular courtyard. The medieval castle chapel of St. Barbara on the ground floor of the north wing dates from 1750. The entrance, consisting of two gate pillars with a gable roof, dates from the 18th century.
