history
Until the 19th century
The area around Rettenbach has been populated since the 6th and 7th centuries. A "Rotinbach" is first mentioned in documents in the Ottobeurer monastery books in 1152 . From 1547 Rettenbach was ruled by the future princes Fugger-Babenhausen. In 1790 Rettenbach received market rights with important proprietary rights. With the Rhine Confederation Act in 1806, the place became part of Bavaria, but the Fugger princes had significant reservation rights until 1848.
Name change
On December 18, 1901, the community was renamed Markt Rettenbach .
Incorporations
In the course of the regional reform on July 1, 1971, the previously independent municipality of Lannenberg was incorporated. Wineden joined the company on July 1, 1972. Engetried, Eutenhausen, Frechenrieden, Gottenau and Mussenhausen followed on May 1, 1978.

His predecessor with a term of office of 36 years - May 1, 1984 to April 30, 2020 - was Alfons Weber, born in 1955 (also CSU / ÜWG). He was last confirmed in office in 2014 with 85.6% of the valid votes.
coat of arms
The coat of arms was approved on December 16, 1866 by King Ludwig II of Bavaria .
Blazon : “Divided by gold, red and blue obliquely to the left; in the red field a silver oblique wave bar, in the gold a blue star, in the blue two silver stars. "
The silver sloping wave bar in the red field stands for the place name "Rotinbach" or "Röttebach", which comes as a stream from the Rotmoos. In the zeitgeist of the time, the silver and blue stars refer to “the happiness of being a Bavarian citizen”. The field colors gold and blue refer to the main colors in the coat of arms of the Fugger family and are reminiscent of the more than 300 years of Fugger rule over the place. Probably based on the older coat of arms of the Fugger market in Babenhausen, the municipal coat of arms from 1866 was still provided with a wall crown and two pennants above the shield head. The heraldic pennant on the right is quartered gold and blue and alternately colored with the Fugger lily; the left heraldic is gold and black quartered. Both pennants are provided with a red or blue label and symbols of attachment to the former rulers.
