Neuburg am Inn (literally Newbury-on-Inn) is a municipality in the district of Passau in Bavaria in Germany.
Neuburg am Inn is located in the Danube-region forest high above the Inn River, which forms the natural border with Upper Austria. In 2006, a bridge over the Inn was opened to pedestrians and cyclists, which now connects Neuburg to the opposite bank. By Neuburg is the major road B 12, which connects it to the city of Passau 10 km further north and a further 15-kilometer link to Pocking. Just 6 km from the community is the motorway junction ‘’Passau-south’’, a link to the Autobahn 3. Also nearby is the district of Neukirchen am Inn, a frequent stop for the train from Passau to Mühldorf.
The municipality has 22 Neuburg am Inn officially named districts:
There are also the municipal areas Eglsee, Neuburg a.Inn, Neukirchen am Inn and Engertsham.
It is assumed that the castle was built around the year 1050. The Neuburg am Inn formerly belonged to the Habsburg count of Neuburg. In the 13th century the Duke of Bavaria attempted to claim the fortress, but it was successfully defended in the name of the Count of Neuburg. Austria later purchased the sovereignty here through the Bishopric of Passau, acquired it in 1730/39. Since 1803 it has belonged to Bavaria.
The council has been working the local elections on 2 March 2008 as follows:
The first Mayor was Joseph Stöcker (CSU). He was succeeded in 2002 by Hans Repcik (Civil List), and ran unopposed in 2008 with 93.57% of valid votes confirming him in office. The Deputy Mayor is Dr. Heinrich Wimmer (CSU), third mayor is Franz Hörner (CSU).
