Hinterkaifeck murders

Hinterkaifeck was a small farmstead situated between the Bavarian towns of Ingolstadt and Schrobenhausen, approximately 70 kilometres north of Munich, that has become infamous as the scene of one of the most gruesome and puzzling unsolved crimes in German history. On the evening of March 31, 1922, the six inhabitants of the farm were killed with a mattock. The six victims were parents, Andreas Gruber and Cäzilia Gruber ; their widowed daughter Viktoria Gabriel ; Viktoria's children, Cäzilia and Josef ; and the maid, Maria Baumgartner .

Built around 1863, Hinterkaifeck was never an official place name nor a separate district with this name, but only an unofficial house name. Nearby Kaifeck is an Einödhof, or single farm settlement, located just over 1 kilometre to the south of the "murder farm" on the municipal road to Schrobenhausen. The farm, however, did not belong to Kaifeck, but to the village of Gröbern as house number 27 ½ of the municipality Wangen, and was incorporated into Waidhofen in 1971.
