The place was first mentioned in a document in 1143. After it was pledged to Ulm in 1382 , the village belonged completely to the imperial city of Ulm in 1480. In 1803 Bräunisheim came temporarily to Bavaria , and in 1810 to the Kingdom of Württemberg , where it was assigned to the Oberamt Geislingen . When the districts were introduced in 1938, Bräunisheim became part of the Ulm district .

With the regional reform in Baden-Württemberg , Bräunisheim was incorporated into Amstetten on December 1, 1973. His previous suburb of Sontbergen , however, was assigned to Gerstetten ( Heidenheim district ).
