The word "Schwaigen" or "Sweiga" refers to the cattle specialised homesteads of the 12th century. In those days the landlord gave his cattle to the farmer (Schwaiger). In exchange the farmer had to increase the lifestock as well as produce cheese and butter for the landlord. The story of the Fürstenrieder Schwaige dates back to the beginning of the 10th century, when three homesteads were located in the forests around the village of Planeck. 1707 a small hunting castle was built next to the Schwaige, which then had the name Poschetsrieder Schwaige. 1715 the elector Max Emanuel obtained the homestead, changed its name to Fürstenried and built a castle on the grounds. The first innkeeper of the Schwaige was a farmer, who received the license to sell beer. In 1854, the new owner baron Beck-Peccis caused the closing of the inn, which reopened in 1887. Following several owner changes, the Schwaige had to be demolished due to bad building conditions. In 1985 the brewery Spaten-Franziskaner built the new Einkehr zur Schwaige, which silhouette resembles the former building of 1730.
