Königsberg originated around 1180 as a result of the construction of a castle on the "King's Vineyard" (for the castle, see: Königsberg Castle), presumably on the land of an old Frankish royal domain. However, a settlement called "Ingelhofen" already existed in the suburbs in the early Middle Ages. Königsberg was first mentioned in 1234, was granted market rights in 1333, and finally, in 1358, full city rights. Source: https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/K%C3%B6nigsberg_in_Bayern
