Greding - Michaelskapelle
It is known, that in Greding iron ore was being processed already very early. Around 700 the area was an important production site for the metal weapons.
Karl Martell invaded Bavaria around 725 and around 750 Pippin placed the diocese of Eichstätt under Carolingian administration. Duke Tassilo III. from Bavaria was deposed by Charlemagne in 788 and Bavaria came under Frankish-Carolingian administration.
Around 900 Greding is a Franconian royal court, awarded by the Carolingians as a fief to the local Counts. After a feud between the Counts and the later Emperor Heinrich II in 1033 Greding came into the possession of the Bishop of Eichstätt.
Until the 1950s the cemetery around St. Martin was the only cemetery in Greding. The basement of the Michaelskapelle next to the church served as an ossuary, which contains the bones of around 2500 deceased.
