History

Nußdorf is first recorded in 788 AD in a source referring to the "ecclesia Nuzdorf" (Latin for 'Nuzdorf church') and its associated estate.[2]

On 15 May 1097 a document records that Emperor Henry IV made a stopover in Nußdorf on his way from Verona to Regensburg.[3][4] The local noble family of Clammenstein is mentioned in documents from the 12th century onwards as residing at the castles of Klammenstein and Ramsau. The last Clammenstein, Conrad III, bequeathed his fortune to the two churches in Nußdorf in 1402. In 1950, the municipality adopted the family coat of arms.

Because of its location in proximity to the border and along a highway and riverway, Nußdorf was burned to the ground and plundered during the Landshut War of Succession in 1504, the attack of the Croats in 1743, and the Napoleonic Wars. The 1800 territorial reform forced a merger of Nußdorf and the neighboring municipality of Neubeuern. However, popular opposition led the municipalities to split in 1980. Today, Nußdorf am Inn again is an independent municipality.

Partnerships

Nußdorf has instituted a partnership with the French municipality Camblanes-et-Meynac since 1975, which consists of mutual visits and, since 2003, an annual youth exchange.
