Hiking

Essing was first mentioned in a document in 976. Randeck Castle above the Essing market was built around the year 1000 and is one of the oldest castle complexes in Bavaria. The place, which became a market in 1336, later belonged to the Munich Rent Office and the Abensberg Regional Court of the Electorate of Bavaria. Essing (= Neuessing) had a market court with magistrate rights.

Markt Essing is an idyllic place right on the water and below Randeck Castle.
