Dittigheim was an early property of the Holzkirchen provost in Fulda. Around the year 1100 the brothers Tragebodo and Richard von Dittigheim were named. Since the Frankish period , the noble family of the "Knights of Dittigheim" can be detected. A lower nobility from Dittigheim was mentioned between 1313 and 1369. The last known and proven knights of Dittigheim were Walther von Dietenhein (mentioned in a Würzburg document in 1351) and Peter von Dietenkein (1366 to 1376 dean of the Neumünster diocese). As a result, the dynasty of the Dittigheim knights died out. A castle was never mentioned in the Dittigheim district, but there are remains of a tower on the Höhberg which belongs to the district.
The place once belonged to the Lauda dominion. Half of Dittigheim was signed by the Counts of Rieneck as marriage property to the Margraves of Baden and redeemed in 1320. Like Lauda, Dittigheim became Hanau around the year 1358. In 1453 half of the place came to the Counts of Rieneck as pledge, the other half was probably still with Hanau at that time.

In 1803 Dittigheim came to the Principality of Salm and in 1806 it fell under Baden sovereignty.
From 1813 the place belonged to the District Office Tauberbischofsheim , from 1840 to the District Office Gerlachsheim and from 1849 again to the District Office Tauberbischofsheim, which in turn became part of the Tauberbischofsheim district and in 1973 the Main-Tauber district. On January 1, 1975, Dittigheim became part of Tauberbischofsheim together with Distelhausen and Dittwar as part of the regional reform in Baden-Württemberg .
