history
The Delkhofen district was first settled by the Alemanni , which is documented by grave finds. In 1381 the village, in which mainly farmers lived, came from the Deilinger rule Hohenberg to Upper Austria . By Napoléon and the Peace of Pressburg of December 26, 1805, it was added to the Kingdom of Württemberg .
By contract of July 4, 1860, Deilingen became a composite municipality, consisting of the sub-municipalities of Deilingen and Delkhofen. Up until then, the two places divided the district in a ratio of 3: 2. In 1909 the Hohenberg mark, which was also part of the municipality, was dissolved and part of it was given to Schörzingen . In 1935, the German municipal code forced the conversion of the compound into a unified municipality.

Trivia
In the Neuhausen open-air museum there is a thatched day laborer's house from Delkhofen. The house, named after a resident "Fazi-Häusle", was built towards the end of the 18th century. It stands for the barren life and arduous work on the Heuberg with its harsh climate .
