Neufahrn discovered: skeleton finds reveal early local history

A significant discovery has strongly influenced the understanding of history of the municipality of Neufahrn by a skeleton find. Skeletons that were discovered during construction work on the parish path show that the place was populated much longer than originally assumed.

The meaning of the skeleton finds

In 2021, seven well -preserved skeletons were found on the parish path in Neufahrn. This discovery could significantly change the historiography of the place. So far it was known that Neufahrn was first mentioned in a written source in 804, but the new finds show that there was an early medieval settlement between 650 and 770.

who was involved?

The results of the scientific studies were recently presented by experts, including Ernest Lang from the Neufahrner Heimat- und History Association, Delia Hurka from the district archeology Freising and Amira Adaileh from the Bavarian State Office for the Preservation of Monuments. These experts have analyzed the finds together and presented their surprising results.

The impact on local education

The discovery will not only encourage historical considerations, but also have direct consequences for local education. Mayor Franz Heilmeier found that the apprenticeship in schools will be affected: "The local history learned in schools is no longer durable." Elementary school books must be revised accordingly in order to take into account the new findings. Knowledge of the past will be more precise and relevant for future generations.

a ray of hope for historical research

Mayor Heilmeier emphasized how important it is to bring light into the dark of early medieval history, since so far there was little known about it. This represents significant progress for the community and opens new doors for historical research in the region.

connection to national history

In addition, the finds in Neufahrn have an interesting connection to the current state exhibition via Bavaria in the early Middle Ages. This shows that in Bavaria there must have been predominantly Christians before the arrival of St. Korbinian in 724. The new findings from Neufahrn support this theory and expand the understanding of regional history.

FAZIT

The skeletons discovered in the parish path not only offer new insights into the history of Neufahrn, but also shape the future teaching and the historical awareness of the community. While the scientific community is planning to publish the results in a specialist essay, these discoveries are expected to stimulate far -reaching discussions on both local and national level.
