history
Until the church is planted
Archaeological evidence shows that there was a brick factory in Balzhausen during Roman times.
Balzhausen was first mentioned in a document in 956. Since the Middle Ages, the margravate Burgau was sovereign, to which the local rule Seifriedsberg belonged. During the Peasants' Wars , farmers conquered Balzhausen and several small towns, including Thannhausen, in February 1525 . An army campaign from Ulm inflicted a devastating defeat on this heap of farmers on May 31, 1525, as a result of which the towns of Burg and Balzhausen were burned down. Balzhausen belonged to the Counts of Oettingen-Wallerstein . It is part of the Seifriedsberg rule since 1751. With the Rhine Confederation Act 1806, the place came to the Kingdom of Bavaria . In the course of the administrative reforms in the Kingdom of Bavaria, today's municipality was created with the municipal edict of 1818 .
