Until the churches are founded

The Lords of Hagel, who are first mentioned as imperial ministers in 1145, were the first verifiable owners of Hagel Castle. Bachhagel is first mentioned as hail in 1269/71 and means hill or stone pile. The neighboring parish village of Burghagel was also called Hagel. To distinguish it, the place on the brook called Bachhagel, the Burghagel near the castle. Hagel Castle was destroyed in 1447 or 1462 and never rebuilt. The Hofmark Oberbechingen was from 1581 to 1622 held by the Ulmer Patrizierfamilie Roth von Schreckenstein. Hans Caspar Roth von Schreckenstein built Oberbechingen Castle here in 1584 . Today's municipal area belonged to the Duchy of Neuburg-Sulzbach and its court Höchstädt; since 1777 the area was part of the Electorate of Bavaria .
