Parish Church, Chapels and History

The town's history goes back a long way: the area around Neuhofen was first settled by the Bavarians around 550 AD. In 1785, Neuhofen received its own parish. In the parish church, the high altar commemorates several historical connections. It dates from 1660 and came to Neuhofen in 1740 as a gift from Andrichsfurth.

The chapels also tell stories of their own. After being half destroyed in a car accident, the Baier Chapel was dismantled and rebuilt a few metres away from the road. The Ramersberg Chapel was built in 1908 and completely renovated in 2018. Another chapel's history goes back to Johann Augustin and his wife Anna: out of gratitude for the safe return of their son Johann from the Second World War and captivity, they decided to build a chapel in place of the wayside cross.

Anyone interested in sacred art, local architectural history and the development of a town will find a special way into Neuhofen im Innkreis through these details. The individual years reveal different eras: from the high altar of the 17th century, through the establishment of the independent parish in 1785, to the renovation work on the Ramersberg Chapel in 2018.

Events Throughout the Year

The traditional Neuhofen Advent is part of the local events calendar. It takes place on 7 December in the parish church of Neuhofen. Another recurring event is the spring concert: it takes place on Friday, 4 April, and Saturday, 5 April, at the Sternbauer inn; the usual date is two weeks before Easter. Such events can give your trip a cultural focus if they fit your desired travel period.

When looking for accommodation, it is therefore worthwhile to first decide on your preferred combination of nature, cycling, local history and events. This will make it easier to assess whether a holiday apartment or holiday home in Neuhofen im Innkreis fits your travel plans.
