At the center of the village north of Vilsheim stands the stately Kapfing Castle. A Werinher de Chapfingen was first mentioned in the last quarter of the 11th century, and the first reliable information about the castle dates back to the 13th century. Kapfing developed as a typical settlement around the castle. From 1415 to 1643, it was owned by the later Barons von Eckher, and until 1780, it was owned by the Barons von Goder. In 1702, Hieronymus Count von Spreti came to the court of Elector Max Emanuel as a page, and through his third marriage to Antonia Baroness von Goder in 1754, Kapfing Castle became the ancestral seat of the Counts von Spreti from 1780 onward. With the death of Wolfram Count von Spreti in 2004, who had previously become heavily indebted, the castle and its lands passed to the Bavarian state. In 2007, Nikolaus Weber-Henschel acquired the property. (Wikipedia)

The monument to Ludwig the Rich on Dreifaltigkeitsplatz (Duke from 1450 to 1479) was a gift from Ludwig I to the city of Landshut and was erected in 1858. Ludwig the Rich was the son of Heinrich the Rich and the father of Georg the Rich, whom he married to the Polish king's daughter Hedwig in 1475 at a magnificent celebration (Landshut Wedding). He was the founder of the first Bavarian University in Ingolstadt in 1472.
