Dillingen (district)
Dillingen is a ''Landkreis'' (district) in Swabia, Bavaria, Germany. It is bounded by (from the north and clockwise) the districts of Donau-Ries, Augsburg and Günzburg, and by the state of Baden-Württemberg (district of Heidenheim). History In ancient times the Danube river was a border between the Roman empire and the Germanic tribes north of the river. The Roman camp of Phoebiana (now Faimingen) was a bridgehead crossing the danube. There was an Apollo temple being one of the largest buildings north of the Alps in that time. In medieval times the county of Dillingen was established. The counts of Dillingen ruled from the 10th to the 13th century, then (1258) the territory was turned over to the Prince Bishops of Augsburg, who gained several villages for their clerical state, hence subdividing the region into several patches, which were dissolved in the early 19th century. In 1804 Dillingen and its area became part of the state of Bavaria. The district was established in 197 ...

They acquired substantial territory west of the Danube, between Gundelfingen and Donauwörth, by the second half of the 8th century. The founder of the dynasty was Hucpald I who died in 910 and was succeeded by his son Dietpald I. Dietpald's brother Ulrich of Augsburg was appointed Prince-Bishopric of Augsburg in 923. Hucpald's daughter Heylwig married Herman I, Count Palatine of Lotharingia. In 953, rebellion broke out led by King Otto's son, Liudolf, Duke of Swabia. The duchies of Bavaria, Swabia, and Franconia were in open civil war against the King, and even in his native Duchy of Saxony revolts began to spread. The Dillingens supported the king.
