In the year 1214 the court was enlarged by donations from the abbot of Seligenstadt, the abbot of St. Jakob in Mainz and Albert von Tief. Later the place belonged to Külsheim and from the 17th century to the then Würzburg office of Freudenberg, which is now in the Main-Tauber district of Baden-Württemberg.
