Aichach-Friedberg

History

Aichach-Friedberg was settled by Bavarian tribes from the seventh century on. The region is sometimes called the cradle of Bavaria, since the castle of Wittelsbach was located close to the present city of Aichach[?]. It was the ancestral castle of the Wittelsbach family, who were rulers of Bavaria for thousand years. The castle was razed to the ground in 1208, and today there isn'thing else left than a memorial stone at the place.

The town of Friedberg[?] was founded in the 13th century in order to collect a toll from people using the bridge across the Lech River. Aichach became a town about hundred years later. In 1862 the two districts of Aichach and Friedberg were founded. They were merged in 1972 and became part of the administrative region of Swabia. Anyhow, historically Aichach-Friedberg doesn't belong to Swabia, but to Old Bavaria. The name of the new district was originally Augsburg-Ost ("Augsburg East"), but it was changed to Aichach-Friedberg in 1973.

Geography

The district is located to the east of the city of Augsburg and comprises a rural area with few major towns. The Lech River forms the western border of the district. Another river, the Paar[?] (an affluent of the Danube), enters the district in the southwest, runs through Aichach[?] and leaves to the northeast.

The territory is also known as Wittelsbacher Land, due to the castle of Wittelsbach near Aichach.

But Sir Guy departed until his wound should be healed. Now there was in the abbey whither Heraud's body was taken, a monk well and herbs.
